1) Expect the OIG report to drop ASAP, this is the usual 'plausible deniability' play. If everyone sees a wedge between Horowitz, Sessions, and Trump, they can't scream that Trump is using the DoJ to go after political adversaries.
2) People seem to like Q so much. So fine. Fuck it. Let's read this like a Q post.
3) Why IS Sessions asking the OIG to investigate FISA abuses with no prosecutorial power? Why remind us the OIG is from the Obama administration? Because the OIG can recommend prosecution to the DoJ. The OIG's impartiality is basically unquestionable.
4) Horowitz' OIG was straight up BLUEBALLED by the Obama Administration from investigating ANYTHING in the DoJ. heritage.org/crime-and-just…
5) There is no love lost between Horowitz and Obama. THAT'S why the OIG is investigating. Why are DoJ lawyers not being used for this investigation?
6) Because they CAN'T without getting reamed for being partisan actors. Also, there might still be a few bad actors within the DoJ. So, go to the OIG, who were sidelined and had their power diminished/ignored.
7) The OIG has no prosecutorial power, correct. What power DO they have? law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/us…
8) "to have access to all records, reports, audits, reviews, documents, papers, recommendations, or other material available to the applicable establishment which relate to programs and operations with respect to which that Inspector General has responsibilities under this Act"
9) "o make such investigations and reports relating to the administration of the programs and operations of the applicable establishment as are, in the judgment of the Inspector General, necessary or desirable"
10) "to require by subpoena the production of all information, documents, reports, answers, records, accounts, papers, and other data in any medium and documentary evidence necessary in the performance of the functions assigned by this Act"
11) "to administer to or take from any person an oath, affirmation, or affidavit, whenever necessary in the performance of the functions assigned by this Act, which oath, affirmation, or affidavit when administered or taken by or before an employee of an OIG"
12) The OIG get access to EVERYTHING. They can subpeona GODDAMN EVERYTHING. They can take oaths from GODDAMN ANYONE.
13) Then, they get to drop that report into the public. Follow @OversightGov, the Inspector General twitter page where they drop public reports. Holy shit the swamp blasting these guys do.
14) The Office of the Inspector General is the big brother of big brother. The Batman of government. They're the ones who are the first responders to corruption. And @realDonaldTrump just gave us a heads up on where the next volley against the Swamp is coming from. /end
