THREAD🧵#DurhamReport: The #FBI did not interview people connected to the information it used to open a investigation of the Trump campaign during the 2016 election, the report shows. theepochtimes.com/durham-report-…
The bureau rushed to open the initial investigation based on unvetted intelligence from Australia, according to #JohnDurham, who has spent nearly 3 years investigating the origins of the #FBI’s investigation of the Trump campaign.

“The objective facts show that the FBI’s handling of important aspects of the Crossfire Hurricane matter were seriously deficient.”

The much-anticipated report, a copy of which @EpochTimes obtained ahead of its public release, also delves into other controversial aspects of #CrossfireHurricane, the #FBI codename for the investigation of the @realDonaldTrump campaign.
Durham further impugned the #FBI’s error-ridden applications to surveil Trump campaign associate @carterwpage.
FBI agents applied to renew the secret-court warrants on Page despite admitting, both at the time and subsequently, that they had no probable cause to do so.

Durham concludes that the FBI failed to uphold its “important mission of strict fidelity to the law.”
The special counsel “does not recommend any wholesale changes in the guidelines and policies that the Department and the FBI now have in place.”

Opening ‘Crossfire Hurricane’
The FBI did not speak to the people who provided the information used for opening the investigation, Durham found.
The bureau also failed to examine its own databases, check with other intelligence agencies, interview essential witnesses, and did… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

While Durham does not attribute a motive to the @FBI's shoddy work, he points to “pronounced hostile feelings toward Trump” from #PeterStrzok, the person in charge of the investigation.

The handling of the Trump investigation was a departure from the cautious approach the bureau took in handling matters related to former secretary of state @HillaryClinton, Trump’s election opponent, the report found.

Durham highlights the distinct approach the @FBI took to intelligence it received from a trusted foreign source indicating that the Clinton campaign planned to smear Trump by tying him to Russian President Vladimir Putin with the goal of diverting attention from the scandal… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
“This lack of action was despite the fact that the significance of the Clinton plan intelligence was such as to have prompted the Director ofthe CIA to brief the President, Vice President, Attorney General, Director of the FBI, and other senior government officials about its… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
FBI Could Not Corroborate Steele Dossier
Federal investigators never manage to corroborate any of the claims in the infamous #SteeleDossier, Durham’s investigators concluded.

Similar to Durham, the report by special counsel Robert Mueller in 2019 included no corroboration of the claims in the Steele dossier. theepochtimes.com/mueller-report…
The @HillaryClinton campaign paid for the creation and dissemination of the #SteeleDossier using a law firm as a cutout.
The campaign and the @DNC agreed to pay federal fines last year for concealing the nature of the payments for the dossier. theepochtimes.com/clinton-campai…

Steele hired a US-based Russian national, Igor Danchenko, to compile the claims in the dossier. Like Steele, Danchenko could not back up any of the claims when confronted by the FBI.
“Rather, Danchenko characterized the information he provided to Steele as ‘rumor and… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
