Was the Durham Report a distraction to cover up something even worse?
By Maker S. MarkSome recent events have caused me to pause and ask some questions about why now. When multiple "bad" items are reported in tandem, I am often left to ask: is this really the thing, or is it perhaps a distraction?
In the same timeframe during which the Durham report was released, we also saw a report released on the FBI FISA abuses. We are supposed to be happy that only 278,000 unauthorized (illegal) warrantless searches occurred in 2020 and accept that the FBI has resolved this situation.
Interesting...a system created to keep tabs on foreign threats is being used to illegally spy on American citizens at an alarming rate. And the most absurd item in the story is that we are to believe that the FBI has new processes in place that resolve this. I would not be surprised if we learn later that they redefined the definition of searches to cut down on the number of illegal searches (think redefining gain-of-function research to say we aren't funding it).
One separate comment about the FBI response: the Durham report specifically calls out the FBI for not needing new procedures for the abuses investigated, but the FBI needs better enforcement of existing procedures. If there is ill intent, and I would say the evidence is that there were at least 278,000 instances of ill intent that we know of, then no procedural change made will make a difference. Ill intent equals bad behavior almost every time if there are no consequences.

Why would the Perkins Coie law firm have access to the FBI portal during the 2020 presidential election cycle? An interesting read.
