Durham is just following the paper trails.
What do you think Mueller did? Listen, Mueller and Durham are basically mirror images. Both are methodical in their investigations so that they can present the facts and nothing but the facts, Maam. :) (I loved Joe Friday)

That will determine if indictments come to light.
Same as the Mueller investigation. Facts determined indictments.

I'm patient to find out knowing someone who is actually following evidence instead of anonymous sources, bogus dossiers and unknown whistleblowers.
You're not patient. You are just like most other right wingers or liberal. If you don't get the decision that you feel is right, you will complain. Mueller, a Republican, ran a text book investigation. He didn't find enough evidence to prove that Trump participated in criminal conspiracy with the Russians so he did not indict. Those that he found evidence in criminal activity were indicted.
For all we know Hillary Clinton and Blasey Ford are the whistleblowers. Maybe Peewee Herman for all I know.
At least you could have cited a more credible source. Someone in the White House.
Frankly it does not matter as Trump already issued the transcript of the call.
Factually speaking, no he didn't. They admitted that the transcript was not a verbatim transcript of the phone call.
This is not going to go the way Schiff and the House Democrats want it to go.
Neither did the Mueller Report and most likely, Durham's report will not go the way that Trump wants it to go.
They have no choice other than to impeach Trump on bogus articles of impeachment
There was nothing bogus about the impeachment inquiry. They have a credible whistle blower allegation, as was the testimony of several of Trump's own appointees. The inquiry gives them more authority to get information from the White House.
which will just play into his Twitter rage and when the Senate trial votes not to remove, banners of "Exoneration" will be everywhere. The Democrat House will give him what Mueller refused to give him----"Exoneration."
That all remains to be seen. The public opinion already favors impeachment, even though it is very early in the inquiry. At this time, Nixon was way ahead in his approval rating. As facts come out, that will be the guide as to see if this gets past the inquiry.

Where did you get any inside information that it was going anywhere.

The burden of proof is on you, and you have given nothing but assertions.

What assertions do you claim I have given?
You asserted the investigation in question was going nowhere.
I asked you where you got your inside information.
I made no assertion I only asked you a question about your assertion.
Can I assume you just pulled your assertion out of your hind quarters?

Got you mixed up with another poster. The investigation is obviously going nowhere because Barr is hot and bothered to report some 'good news' for his boss. Unless you have good news, there is none.

Durham is attempting but failing to control the narrative.
Frankly have not heard the man say a word before a camera or interview in a newspaper. I think that the very silence on this side of the investigation without daily leaks to Vox, Buzzfeed and the WashPo has some concerned some work is actually getting done.



He has nothing, and barr is very frustrating.
Remains to be seen and Barr is frustrating because like Mueller he is not going to personally leak information on an ongoing investigation.

Just look at who's coming out of the woodworks in the past two or three weeks on the leftist media sites. Clapper, HRC, and Brennan.

It's because they're scared of what is coming hence round 2 of Trump and collusion with someone, anyone, my guess is this and the whistleblower(s) will lead back to Brennan.

IOW, Trump and Barr and Durham, yet again, have nothing.
The article says otherwise. Durham would not be wasting FBI agent and DoJ lawyers time as he is not a political appointee.

Not really. It says what what was leaked from the White House, which means little.

Durham is most likely finding the same thing which the other investigations found and the broadening could mean he found something that he wants to explore further or that he hasn't found anything new and the DOJ wants to try another angle.

That was a well reasoned response. Maybe NBC should give you a shot at Chuck Todd’s job. He’s not as reasonable and polite as you are.

I like to see facts. Being a moderate, I don't trust either side fully but there is no reason to doubt Durham. Barr is a different story.

I wonder what the DOJ and White House would say if Durham finds evidence to further implicate Trump.

Oh, yes, a very real possibility. Our president may very well be majorly a criminal, and now that Barr and Durham are rummaging through everything DOJ has on DJT, they are going, "Holy crapola, battrump, run!"

It is not impossible Barr will actually find the prostitutes Trump allegedly hired to soil the mattresses of the Obamas.
