If you care to see the work of The Conservative Treehouse, here is his summation of Durham...and he even spoke to Durham.

But to save you the reading, they are pretty much going to sweep it under the rug, like everyone predicted. It's the usual DC move. I won't rat you out if you don't rat me out.

My biggest complaint following this story from the beginning was to see how corrupt and inept our government has become.

Not so much a coverup as it's simply DC protecting itself. Shits out in the open, but nothing is going to be done about it.

Ok so now we have this:

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/15/trump-c ... -data.html

Of course I think this was pretty much known when the Mueller report came out. It documented the Trump campaign director shared campaign polling data with a guy with connections to Russian intelligence. The idea that the Mueller report showed "no collusion" was always false.

You didn’t click on the Treasury link embedded in your CNBC article did you?

See the “quote” from the Treasury Department in the CNBC article? Now go and find that quote or anything related to it in the link.

There is no “now we have this”.. what CNBC posted is old information, and then they mischaracterized a link to a Treasury announcement about new sanctions for the Russian malign influence campaign in 2020 as having referenced Manafort and Kilimnik.

CNBC created some Trumpy clickbait and you clicked it.

Here’s another take. Still Trump Clickbaity I suppose...but perhaps better written?
Today’s Treasury document provides that information. It says: “During the 2016 U.S. presidential election campaign, Kilimnik provided the Russian Intelligence Services with sensitive information on polling and campaign strategy.”

It is hard to overestimate the significance of this statement. It says that Trump’s 2016 campaign manager, Paul Manafort, provided secret polling data and information about campaign strategy to a Russian intelligence officer, who shared it with Russian intelligence. Russian intelligence, as we also know from both the Mueller Report and the Senate Intelligence Committee report, both hacked emails of the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign, and targeted U.S. social media to swing the 2016 election against Democrat Hillary Clinton and to Donald Trump.

By itself, the statement that the Trump campaign worked with Russian intelligence is earthshaking. But aside from the information about the exchange of this particular kind of intelligence in 2016, this statement also indicates that the Trump campaign itself was not simply operating in happy if unintentional tandem with Russian intelligence-- which was as far as the Muller Report was willing to go-- but in fact had an open channel with Russian operatives. That’s a game-changer in terms of how we understand 2016 and, perhaps, the years that have followed it.

But there was more in the Treasury announcement than a revelation about Russian actions in 2016 and since. The Treasury also announced sanctions against Pakistani entities and individuals who are “instrumental in processing payment for fraudulent identities.” While the Treasury announcement singled out the work of Pakistani money launderers for Russia’s Internet Research Agency, a Russian troll farm, and while I am 1000% not a specialist in Pakistani finance, it is hard not to notice that the president announced yesterday that the U.S. will no longer fight the Taliban in Afghanistan with soldiers, and today he appears to be going after what looks like it might be a key way in which international support for the Taliban evades international law.

Does this mean that we've officially entered the "But Trump" phase of Biden's presidency. Liberals bringing up Trump at every opportunity to deflect from the failures and inadequacies of Biden, Pelosi, et all just like conservatives used "But Hillary" four years ago. :coffee:

Jelly was one a huge critic of the "But Hillary" deflection so it's ironic that it's being pointed out here, in his magnum opus.

A federal judge in Washington accused the Justice Department under Attorney General William P. Barr of misleading her and Congress about advice he had received from top department officials on whether President Donald J. Trump should have been charged with obstructing the Russia investigation and ordered that a related memo be released.

Judge Amy Berman Jackson of the United States District Court in Washington said in a ruling late Monday that the Justice Department’s obfuscation appeared to be part of a pattern in which top officials like Mr. Barr were untruthful to Congress and the public about the investigation.

The department had argued that the memo was exempt from public records laws because it consisted of private advice from lawyers whom Mr. Barr had relied on to make the call on prosecuting Mr. Trump. But Judge Jackson ruled that it contained strategic advice, and that Mr. Barr and his aides already understood what his decision would be.

“The fact that he would not be prosecuted was a given,” Judge Jackson wrote of Mr. Trump.

She also singled out Mr. Barr for how he had spun the investigation’s findings in a letter summarizing the 448-page report before it was released, which allowed Mr. Trump to claim he had been exonerated.
