Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton slammed the criminal probe of how the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) examined alleged ties between President Donald Trump and Russia, which was led by U.S. Attorney John Durham. In a Lou Dobbs Tonight interview on Fox Business, Fitton lamented at how Attorney Durham and Attorney General William Barr are “making no progress” on investigating the roots of the Russian collusion probe aimed at the U.S. president.
The founder of Judicial Watch expressed concern as to why the U.S. attorney is only questioning former Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director John Brennan now, despite Attorney Durham’s appointment more than a year ago. With no grand juries, witnesses or lawyers complaining about their clients being summoned – Fitton was inclined to believe that Brennan is definitely not a target of the investigation.
Furthermore, Fitton compared the earlier criminal investigation spearheaded by Special Counsel Robert Mueller with the Durham-led investigation. According to him, the government pressure on witnesses and subjects present in the Mueller probe was absent in the Durham one. Fitton added that Attorney Durham is “not doing the work” required to hold deep state criminals accountable.
The earlier investigation by Mueller, which wrapped up in March 2019, did not find evidence that the president colluded with Russia in 2016.
In addition, there was also a clear “contrast and comparison” in how the two investigations handled suspects. Former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith, who pleaded guilty in August for falsifying a surveillance-related document, was “free as a bird” under the Durham investigation according to Dobbs. Meanwhile, Fitton remarked that the FBI managed to arrest a number of individuals under the Mueller probe – which included former White House Chief Strategist Steven Bannon.
Dobbs, in turn, characterized the Durham investigation as a “sham” with its lack of serious pressure. The interview host also noted that the FBI’s slow pace will “take them decades to deal with anything of real complexity.”
