Dan Goldman Takes A Sledgehammer To 'Pathetic' Durham Report

Source: crooksandliars.com




He is so good at this.

By Conover Kennard — May 24, 2023

Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) explained precisely what is in the Durham report .........................

..........................................

"The Durham report seemed to fail to consider the fact that the original tip that set off the Crossfire Hurricane investigation was that Russia would be disseminating hacked emails about, related, that would help Donald Trump," Goldman continued. "And lo and behold, at the end of July, that's exactly what happened."
..................
................"

"Third, the Durham report talks all about the Steele dossier, which had nothing to do with the origination of the Russia investigation and had nothing to do with the Mueller investigation," he continued. "It was not relied on. That investigation, of course, led to, I believe, six individuals connected to the Trump campaign who were convicted."

"Whereas the Durham report, the Durham investigation, had one guilty plea by someone who was referred from the office of inspector general and two acquittals on pretty pathetic charges," he said. "So let's get our facts straight about the Durham report."

"Second, I want to address what my colleague from Arizona was saying about the FBI whistleblowers," he said. "I was actually in that hearing last week. He was not."

"And what I can tell you about those individuals is separate and apart from whether they are whistleblowers or not, they were deemed by the FBI to be national security risks," he added.

He wasn't done yet:............................

He's always been smart and well-spoken, especially when he was a talking head or other kind of news analyst on TV. He's probably been like that in court. And now he's using those skills where they can REALLY have an impact! I'm SO thrilled that he's in Congress! Wonder how far he mght go?

Mine is a long-time Democratic politico who served in the state legislature for 35 years before running for Congress... but he's not a "fiery" kind of guy.

Okay, I’ll say it: first time in my “woke” life - sometime in my very late teens when I actually did start waking up.

I HATE being “represented” by a Republican because it means I really won’t have any real representation. She does give a lot of nice happy talk, though, and regularly sends us photos of her meeting with the garden clubs and firefighters.

Luckily here in Philly, Democrats outnumber Republicans 7-1 so no chance for me to be stuck with a Republican (unless I move). So the 3 Reps whose Districts are primarily in the city, are all (D)s and all but one of the Reps for the surrounding suburban counties are also (D)s.

Our new Congresswoman is a Republican alright. But the last guy was a Democrat of the DINO persuasion. VERY frustrating. And to think, before we moved, our Rep was the OUTSTANDING Ted Lieu. It was nice knowing I could rest easy at night. Now, not so much.
