If there is any living human that thinks the "Durham Probe" is anything other than a pre-election phony political hit job, you must have slept through the last 4 years.
DOJ policy forbids publicly describing evidence in a criminal case, even after charges are filed, let alone before, because it could improperly influence a jury. This is an improper use of law enforcement authority for a political purpose. https://t.co/N4A46rfQ9D
This resignation waves a huge red flag about political pressure by AG Barr. Nora Dannehy is a career prosecutor well-known to many of us in CT for her professionalism & integrity. To put it bluntly, she would not have resigned without good reason. https://t.co/IxIKUpKs1b
Let's not forget that it is just not normal for career prosecutors to resign from the Justice Department or high-profile cases -- but that happened in the Stone and Flynn cases, and the Durham investigation, where the #2 just resigned. Barr is destroying the rule of law for POTUS
Bill Barr uses the DOJ as a shield to protect Trump,
But also as a sword to go after Trump’s “enemies list.”
The Durham investigation was political from the start and issuing “findings" before the election would violate DOJ policy.
No wonder career prosecutors are resigning.
Reports say federal prosecutor Nora Dannehy has quit Durham’s team over political pressure to produce results before the election. If accurate, we should be grateful for her conduct, and outraged by his. https://t.co/XpHgURypVv
“Federal prosecutor Nora Dannehy, a top aide to U.S. Attorney John H. Durham, has resigned from the Justice Department probe out of concern that the investigative team is being pressed for political reasons to produce a report before its work is done.” https://t.co/qv2l29Iv5H
It is exceedingly rare for DOJ prosecutors to resign in protest, and this is the 2nd one this year to do so bc of improper political influence.
This tells you all that you need to know about the bastardization of the Durham investigation by Bill Barr. https://t.co/ajJDnVXdim
"...she had expressed concerns in recent weeks about pressure from Mr. Barr to deliver results ahead of the presidential election in November." https://t.co/KnIX3FMLNF
Is this another example of Republicans looking for dirt where there isn’t any? Another example of Barr using the nation’s Justice Dept. to help re-elect Trump. #TrumpRussia#DurhamReport#Mueller
Subpoena Nora Dannehy, @RepAdamSchiff and @SpeakerPelosi
The stench from the Department of Justice and Attorney General Bill Barr is rising fast.
The Dunham debacle is Barr's October surprise. Head it off now.
