I think some politicians go in with good intentions, but with time the corruption is so gradual that it’s hard for self reflection to do any good. Until there’s a massive wave of people running to vote for term limits on congress, our problems will not only perpetuate but continue to worsen.
I agree. When Manafort sold polling data to Kolimnik, he should have been charged as a traitor. He was convicted of other things, but that wasn't enough. Then, of course, he was later pardoned by a sore loser.

"After a 4 year investigation, Durham charged the driver of the getaway car with double parking, and let the bank robbers off Scott free." -- Roger Stone
LOL! "The bank robbers ran away so fast, we couldn't get a good description of them, and the getaway car driver refused to cooperate. So we could only work with what we had within the bounds of the Constitution, and I personally lost 10 weekends I could have spent with my family working on this investigation, which my wife yelled at me about. So there!" -- John Durham
We, THE PEOPLE, are absolutely sick and tired of watching a certain group of people run roughshod over our legal system, our constitution, and our nation without ANY accountability and without a single shred of dignity. We are watching a broken sytem at work and it is LONG overdue for a top-down clean out and reset.
Hyper partisanship is a big part of that corrupt system. They need you on their team to crush the other corrupt team! They run on social issues to drum up support and get your heart into it. Hell some people even identify as one of the political parties. Their whole identity is tied into one of the two parties. I’m a guy who leans left. Pretty further left than most Forbes viewers (although I have seen some left leaning content from them as well). I have no idea what the video is about because I pay Matt Gates zero attention. I’m here to hate scroll. This post is in no way an attack on you. I saw in your post the words “broken system” and I believe the system was broken on purpose long ago. Yet we continue to support those that keep it broken to enrich themselves. The entire political media eco system now is mainly focused on partisanship. Many of the podcasts and videos I watch and listen to tell me Republicans are evil. I try to balance myself out and consume right wing media but they are just the flip side of the same coin. Lol you can watch a video of any event and have two entirely different outcomes depending on which side of the party’s you consume. I would use the Emma Vingland vs Tim Poole debate or even the CNN Trump town hall as an example. And that is how I believe the system works now. I hate you. You hate me. I don’t know you. You don’t know me. We are fellow countrymen and that no longer means anything. Our job as voters is to protect our corrupt politicians and stick it to the other side’s corrupt politicians. It’s gotten really, really old. God speed and all that other good shit. Sorry about the long rambling response lol.
The investigators definitely broke many laws as they were investigating. But, for some reason, the investigators who were investigating the investigators felt that they should be tied by the law. Maybe it was to remain as above board as possible to produce results that were absolutely unimpeachable, but the corruption runs unbelievably deep and I don't know why we should give the benefit of the doubt to anyone involved.
Exactly, that's what he meant when he said his group of people was doing the job trying to protected Americans. Lol. From casual "suicides " or terrible accidents. Lol. That's what the leftists do with their political enemies.
@@LuigiMordelAlaume An Act passed just a year ago. An Act passed for the sole purpose of allowing this whack job chic to sue President Trump. LOL It allows people to file a Civil Suit for a period of 1 year, from Nov 24 2022, to Nov 24 2023. WTF is that?? The sole purpose of that ridiculous Act was to smear Trump's name. These people are so desperate, it's laughable. They are terrified of this man, and their fear of him only makes me want to vote for him more.
Duped? You do realize that the Mueller report found plenty of evidence of very specific collusion between Trump his campaign and the Russians right? Mueller determined that he wasn't able to properly indict a sitting president which is why no indictment was handed down. This is all in the report it's public record. If you want a very specific example you can go and find for yourself Trump in a rally asked the Russians to go and find Hillary Clinton's 30,000 emails. The first hacking attempts of the Clinton campaign occurred from Russia just hours after that happened. There's plenty of other examples in the report but that's a very easy one you can go look up yourself.
According to the Intel drops (if you believe the online research project published in 2016 about this), Durham can't work in a corrupt system to prosecute, let's say Hillary, because no judge would see the case and it would give ammunition to the enemies who have overthrown and hijacked our system. They need to be dismantled piece by piece in front of the full American public (not the way Matt Gaetz is requesting), because then they won't be able to counter the will of the people. Without the majority of such backing, some part of the population will be easily bribed or hijacked into violence against, what would be, their preported "hijacking of the system," when it was they who hijacked it all along.
America cannot come back from this waste of money. Currently every American has a tax on our heads of $95,000.00 each. Our great grand children will be paying. America must be reformed , this isn’t working and what’s sad is those with power are destroying this country on purpose. China owns Joe. He works for communists, not free people.
@@tonythegoodman I thought I heard him say that he had been briefed by someone prior to the testimony and told who and what he can and can't talk about.
John Durham did an excellent job of making it look like he actually did something when he really did nothing but protect the criminals in the Government responsible for the real crimes.
HAHAHAHAHAHA! Always hilarious how magamorons turn against their own when their fever dreams about "criminals in government" turns out to be just that and there is nothing there.
You can throw Bill Barr in that pile of criminals as well. Meanwhile Demorats suggest Donald Trump is always playing the victim card. Sort of like saying someone who has been gang raped is playing 'the victim card' and blaming the girl for being rape and ignoring the rapists instead of throwing them in jail!! Jail isn't just for January 6 patriots that did nothing wrong except not believe 81 million people voted for a dementia riddled corrupt basement bound child sniffing political grifting pervert. Just sayin'.
What bothers me most about this coverup is that nothing will become of it. Durham might as well be sitting there flipping Congress the bird with both hands.
Problem is the FBI, DOJ is corrupt and will NOT dish out any justice so Durham is not going to give all the information, it will be saved for military tribunals, my opinion.
@@drrydog There won't be a civil war. Trump goes away in a paddy wagon, chaos ensues(most likely from internet and electrical blackout), not too long after Trump is released. And then the public military tribunals begin.
Actually, Durham spent 4 years and millions of dollars and found very little. Two failed prosecutions and one plea deal is all he had to show for his efforts. To call his investigation a "nothingburger" would be flattering.
I'm personally tired of these investigations and blatant corruption that we already know... Let them sit in prison like the Jan 6th defendants until they get their day in court..
I must say that when I looked at the report I had the same feelings of why there was no one held accountable for the crimes committed by the FBI or the Mueller team in covering up the crimes . Sad day for America and its citizens. No justice.
Gaetz is an Asshole. He did this for the camera's. He Knows that Durham had severe limits on his ability to get things done, to collar people, etc. He did not have the Power of the FBI and DOJ to go heavy on people, arrest them, f necessary. Under the circumstances, he did a pretty good job. Gaetz couldn't even try a speeding ticket case. Not to mention his oft ventures into ethic violations and evading the Law.
crooked republicans telling crooked republicans to go after less crooked republicans. sure, eat each other and replace yourselves with more crooked republicans.
I don't believe for a minute Durham and Barr really tried to find Mifsud. With all the resources and international contacts of the US Dept of Justice??? Ridiculous! Even a private citizen could pay $50K to a private investigator and find Mifsud.
Durham wasn't allowed to find Mifsud. Mifsud is obviously an asset/agent for the intelligence agencies, and as such it is illegal to expose him. So he wasn't legally allowed to track and trace him, as that would break Mifsud's cover. He doesn't have the authority to step outside the parameters dictated to him. Sure the evidence leads directly to a whole line of crooks, but he has been told point blank - shut up, don't ask - or we will put you in jail. It would have taken an actual backbone to have done a Snowden.
@@michaelogrady232yup, i feel as though it's simply a title and there was never an individual. We have no way of knowing since they all treat his existance like a boogeyman. Mueller refused to even talk about him and Durham is clearly uncomfortable because of it... There are some lines you cannot cross.
I really hate to believe that Durham is a swamp creature, I really do, but if he were a surgeon, he couldn’t lance a boil. No one was punished, no one, for the greatest deliberate, nefarious constitutional violation in the last 100 years. We now know what team Barr plays for and he appointed Durham. One thing I have wondered about is whether the venue of grand juries and trial of those few individuals charged was obligatory. The jury pool would be like the OJ Simpson trial. Four years and the perpetrators got off untouched. I have never feared for my country to the degree I do now. We are no longer a nation of laws. Even if Trump were reelected, who could he put in his administration, the snakes are ubiquitous.
Trump is the alligator, the apex predator, in a swamp full of the likes of creepy Mike Flynn, Crooked Roger Stone and the likes of Durham after years of investigation , nothing. Stand by for the classified documents trial, where we will see the first ever prosecution of a president for stealing the nations most sensitive information for his own personal use. Donald Trump is literally the swamp.
I love seeing Durham called out. He was held up as the Messiah of justice that would expose all the corruption and we'd be able to set things right. But I do believe he is part of the cover-up
Durham was special prosecutor put in charge of investigating the CIA torture program and found everything to be above board. He's been worthless for decades.
Or maybe Durham is demonstrating to all of us that there is no way to get this corruption taken down through a system that has been set up to protect the corrupt Government. Military tribunals will be the only way that the American people will ever get the justice that is warranted. The military is the only way! Bring on the tribunals and the resulting penalty for treason.
HAHAHAHAHA! Always funny to watch magamorons melt down when their heroes can't meet their impossible standards of convicting everyone of these imaginary crimes.
Amen!! Matt Gaetz please stay strong. There has to be a Mr Smith that truly believes in our constitution and will hold this freaking corrupt swamp accountable!!! Please save our country!!
I nominate VP Pence who stood true to his oath to the constitution ( one of few rrepubs to do so ) and stopped the plot to destroy a US Election, run from the Trump White House. Giulliani, Clark, Flynn, Eastman, Trump, Trump. TRAITORS.
The Durham Report exposed a lot.. but it’s obvious he also held back a ton! He still played ball and made sure not to expose too much.. only enough to create a few talking points, without bringing the whole building down.
There's some serious BS going on here somewhere.. Hillary was never locked up, Obamacare wasn't repealed, Biden's 2020 election miracle, missing whistleblowers, unverified FBI reports etc.. Leaving us all wondering if the left are actually really smart or the right is just that stupid. How does this keep happening?
You would be too if you spent 4 years away from your family, if you have a family, to investigate a corrupt system. He refused to waste his time with DC courts and Muffsad (sp). The American Federal government agencies who are tasked to finding people abroad claimed they could not find Muffsed (sp) what else can Durham do?
@@patriotcanuck6485 Joseph Misfud took orders, FBI agent Asra Turk also took orders. Who gave them the order to plant "seeds" at Papadopoulos ? Who ordered Muller team to wipe out the phones ? Durham should have investigated it unless he is blackmailed by the deep state.
Yes and maybe another option is he has gun pointed to his head and his family if he would try to do anything very obvious and revealing. I only see one solution to this problem and no politicians should solve it but all American people should do it. There is no another way to take back your own country. If you will ask how? than I will say - use your historical knowledge and your own imagination what you all should do.
Read between the lines. Durham did his job. He is saying the military is the only way without saying the military is the only way. There is no solution that resides within the three letter agencies. Durham is not guilty here. He's just helping to set the table. This is very obvious to those who have studied and researched the "17 papers". Those drops are becoming more and more relevant with each passing day.
I watch the hearings. Several are speaking up. MTG, Jim Jordan, Josh Hawley and a gal from Florida named Kat. I can’t recall her last name. She’s a fire ball.
Well, Goetz was correct on this points, Mr. Durham took years to investigated those criminals but he actually did less than 50% to complete the job assigned.
We are at a point where the Democrats have such wide spread corruption they are the source problem then the FBI. All that is going to work is not letting the media and the politicians ignite this corruption and the Biden corruption. Demonstrations,demands and protests have to start and continue. It has to interrupt government and daily life. All be it, it has to be peaceful because they are waiting to put conservatives and Republicans away!
Because they are cowards? We pretend like our side is better. But are they? In some ways, sure. Democrats get crappy things done. Republicans don’t do anything to prevent crappy things from being done. So which one is worse? You know, if you know about a crime happening and do nothing, you get charged. Republicans would get charged for all the crimes they’ve allowed to happen, even if democrats are the ones committing the crimes.

"I didn't investigate this because it wasn't my job to do so." "That was literally the job you were supposed to do." "Look, I don't know if you've ever done an investigation, or investigated someone, but you can't just investigate something or someone just because there's evidence and it's your job to investigate that evidence."
To anyone who actually read the Mueller Report, and the 2019 Inspector General Report, and the Durham Report, and followed Congress's actions from 2016 to now, it's *very* obvious that the Mueller Investigation was valid, and that Donald Trump lied about many things in the Mueller Report. The FBI wasn't perfect, but it's *obvious* that MAGA Republicans just want to discredit the FBI to try to protect Donald Trump. The people who let FOX News pundits tell them what the reports state, and then blindly believe the false claims, are sheep. The DOJ isn't corrupt. It's imperfect, but it's apparent that it's a generally fair organization. Anyone who thinks that there was no collusion with Russia by members of Donald Trump's campaign, or that the DOJ conducted a Russia hoax, or that Trump wasn't lying about his business dealings in Russia, or who think that Trump was exonerated, all which Trump claimed, are ignorant. Period. The Mueller Report contradicts all of that, and Durham didn't refute any of those claims. Durham also didn't refute a single prosecution or conviction by the FBI. ---------------------------------------- This is the Mueller report.

The establishment immediately digs up dirt on pretty much everyone that sets foot in Washington DC, and holds that over them as blackmail. This guy doesn't look crooked... he looks scared. He knows if he doesn't toe the line, the DNC crime syndicate will go after him, they'll go after his family, his friends, and anyone he's ever worked with. And THAT is what we now face in DC.
Too much money & power in DC for this corruption to be cleared out anytime soon. Term limits for both elected & appointed officials & yearly audits would be a great start!
Seems like the FBI only wants to investigate republicans. Especially when you have the current FBI director who claimed a while ago that all republicans are terrorists.
These offenders are not limited by the constitution. They keep dragging Trump to court for made up charges. The FBI SWAT shows up at old white peoples homes at dawn to arrest them for being in DC on January 6. They stake out churches because they are pro life "terrorists". They go after anyone who does not use "right speech".
Say what you want some people Trump, are above the law! we would be sent to jail and he can do these things. Notice Durham response to Schiff was "these maybe facts but not illegal" when it is illegal to do what Trump did. Its illegal to have foreign power interfere in our elections.
For those of us that have been around awhile. We see lots of talk and investigations with no accountability. When will the peoples corrupt employees be held accountable under the law. The people go to prison for far less crimes.
The conservative media painted him up, and they once again lead everybody down the primrose path. Why do Republicans think they can prosecute hearsay? That's only done in Banana Republics, which they're trying desperately to turn us into via a coup.
I’m wondering the same thing. There people in the house are all above the law in Americas court rooms that I have been in ( CIVIL COURTS ) when you lie or get found guilty you go straight to jail as soon as court is over,…….it never happens to these people.💯👍 TRUMP 2024🚂🚂🚂🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
We cant because the Republicans lack the will to do things that the Democrat party has no qualms doing when they have the numbers to do so. Too many Republicans are not prepared to stand up and use the power they have to get justice against the deep state.
You are the actual liar. Durham was chosen because of his Fidelity, Bravery and Integrity. Unlike the FBI, he has no bias. Durham doesn't care what these clowns think.
The entire Republican contingent in Congress needs to be cleaned out and their salaries and pensions stopped. These people (you too?) have gone off the deep end and invented all of this b....
Notice how the GOP falsely claim the dems are "weaponizing" the government against them and then turn around and actually do that themselves? Shameless.
Here's the thing though y'all. The House could shut it all down right now without even passing a law. They control the appropriations. If they defund completely they can end these people today. So ask yourself "why aren't they doing that"
We paid 32 Million Dollars for this Investigation. What a waist of our money. Sad that more was not done. They has to be more to this cover up! God bring out the truth our Country needs!
Democrat, no information voters, will refuse to consider it, because the idea that government is using them, doesn’t give a dam about them, and that the UN is conniving to keep them in fearful submission would melt their snowflake minds.
Durham lost the cases not due to incompetence, which he has proven to be incompetent, but due to there being no there, there! Republicans were grasping at straws to begin with!! You can tell by Gaetz's reaction that he is frustrated, but because the very laws that govern our existence must be followed, it is what it is!
Losing a case does not mean the indictment was false. It's a fact the one guy broke the law in changing the text of a witness's testimony. Jack Smith lost a number of high-profile cases, even had one overturned 9-0 by the Supreme Court.
@@ClassicFIHD while you and I can agree, try persuading the rest of the people who listen to NBC tell them the perpetrators were completely innocent and the charges were political. That is what they hear from most of the alphabet media.
Durham is either bought, or agreed to make accommodations for "payment at a later date." Perhqps acceptance and a full scholarship to an Ivy League school for one of his kids. Or a board seat at a Fortune 100 DoD contractor, or a few $100-150K speakers fees for 60 minutes of work at some private equity firm.
These people reach a certain level and it's all accommodation. It's all CYA and you do the same for me. Nobody wants to go to high up the chain, because they're absolutely in thrall to and terrified of what is there. Gutless sons of whores!

Gaetz was literally the only Republican to hold Durham accountable and call out his BS. No wonder they put him last and only one person deferred their time to him.
I thought comparing the special counsel to the Washington Generals was the funniest thing I've heard in awhile, and then I heard Durham respond by saying he thinks that the Generals are really trying hard out there.
Durham did say there was Russian collusion in the 2016 election, you did hear him say that, right? Now why on earth would the RUSSIANS be so desperate for sexual molesting top secret stealer trump to win? any ideas?
Gaetz goes deep into the muck and seems to be genuinely working for the taxpayers. I wish the rest of the GOP would help him out and earn their big salaries.
@@jeffdroog ya ya ya, its like the extortion against his family. The false allegations that have been spewed in the last 7 years is beyond comprehension. A Democrat could come out today make a claim Trump did thousands of girls and you like many others would believe it because you want to,even with no proof. Some sick society and whats even worse we have corrupt gov agencies and politicians that dont give a rats azz about you or anyone else. Dont be a sheep,they get eaten by wolves.
The fact that these people are blatantly refusing to answer questions and stonewalling the comity, even when the comity tells them outright they are holding the documents and have personally read them is just mind boggling. Seriously, how can they possibly believe with any shred of rationality that they're going to get away with this kind of behavior in front of an official hearing?
What's going on is that there's nothing to find. The Mueller report pretty much took care of everything. The Mueller report found plenty of evidence of collusion. They just weren't able to charge a sitting president so they didn't. Just because people want something to be a certain way doesn't mean that it is a certain way.
This is the swamp once again protecting itself. This is going to take an outsider. Someone who has never been in Washington or anywhere near it. We will need people who were military, but that still support the Constitution. Washington is not going to take itself out. They will all cover for each other. The law be damned.
WELL.... Durham was appointed by Bill Barr, who was appointed by Trump. So...there's that, and maybe the simple fact that there wasn't much there to find. Have you considered that ? Just because Trumpsters want to start a dumpster fire, doesn't mean it's going to happen if there isn't enough trash to burn. Yes, indeed Trump --- Only the bestest.
Oh, there was more there was a hell of a lot more and we all know it. What do you think they were doing to his original report while we were all demanding to see it and they were holding it up. Something made him cave and we all know it everyone has a price to be paid or vice a they want kept hidden.
@@rainbowinthedark453 just because you don't like the outcome doesn't mean it's automatically invalid. The thing about life is that sometimes things don't turn out the way we want them to. Since a large subset of this country is getting their expectations directly from Donald Trump and his people not getting what you want is kind of a theme. Donald Trump said that this would reveal the crime of the century. There's no crime to reveal. Mueller already went over all this and found that there was plenty of collusion between Trump his campaign and Russia. Trump didn't get charged with anything because Mueller couldn't figure out a good way to charge a sitting president not because he didn't do any crimes. This is all in the Mueller report and easy to find if you're actually interested. Of course you're never going to hear about that from Republicans Fox News OAN or especially Donald Trump himself. Remember the Durham investigation started under Donald Trump. He had four years to dig up whatever dirt he could and he simply couldn't come up with anything.
I agree, "we" Our Country should not go on like this. We must support one another, Our duty is to remove the INEPT Criminals in OUR Government offices by reducing their pay to one dollar per day then do the work till we find good earnest replacements. Obviously shutting down the government until we have fixed and placed what we know will put all U S back on right track and so on ...
Matt Gaetz....thank you. It's seems a shame that no one could be looking over Durham's shoulder while he was messing up. How much money did Durham make off we the people? And who did he indict?
I'd like to see a list of people that were NOT interviewed or investigated by this guy. Sounds like everyone involved got a total pass. And as usual, nobody is held accountable.
Durham is just disappointed? That's like a parent telling their child that they're disappointed in that child getting a D on a test. He ought to be freaking pissed off. I'm not disappointed in how unmotivated and lazy that this investigation and Barr's investigations were, I'm mad, fighting mad. There just isn't any justice. How long is half of the country going to put up with this?
He's being very grim because someone must be threatening him.i just feel that this is happening you can see it in Durham s behavior.If he's finding it hard to do this them maybe he should've had someone else to do this job.
Finally someone is asking the questions that should be asked and pushed. More people need to push like Matt does. Well done Matt. More people need to question these people like that, go after them and reveal why they are either not doing their job or why they didn't do it. I have been wondering why so many people are throwing Durham softballs. He really did not do a credible job and needs to tell us why.
I was AMAZED at the ability of how well the American justice system is able to protect and perserve evidence. No, not amazed. Astounded ! But I guess all that has changed now.
It's only been good at preserving evidence when it wants to. An agency can't be reformed when it was founded in corruption. The FBI founded & under the leadership of J. Edger Hoover. Who was highly corrupt, and used the FBI to gain & retain political power.
Thank you, Matt - Durham's face spoke volumes. But now, we'd all really like to know why he failed to hold all those crooks responsible - especially Andy McCabe!
We had a real investigation, and this is what it turned up. I think what you mean is that you need a witch trial, that will find the results _you_ want, whether they are true or not, whether they follow the law or not, and I'm sorry, but we don't live in Soviet Russia, so you will not get that here.
Durham could only ask questions. He had no arrest power and no power to issue warrants or subpoenas. All he could do was ask questions, report what they said or didn't say, and report when they played games with him. Then he gets to be jeered at by the Republicans for not using the power he never had, and attacked by the Democrats for reporting what he did find. Give the guy a break.
Durham is an "in different spectator". His position requires that he makes tough decisions and form conclusions. He is not doing this, because that's the indifferent spectator, you just want to stay out of it" he's basically derelict of duty. Crimes have been committed, and his recommendation is "change the process". The law does not need to be changed, the lawn needs to be enforced
The chokehold on power in this country is unbelievable. It is disgusting the level of protection those in power are given by our "so called" judicial system. The people of this country will have to restore fairness and equality under the law.
Power without accountability yields this result. One blank check after another. In truth they don't need your taxes. They have the printing presses. They can ledger new money and steal the value of your holdings. That said people ought to stop thinking that the government is entitled to tax you on your income because it violates the 13th amendment to take the fruits of people's labor against their will. It's just another form of slavery.
would love to see people just collectively decide over the span of like a few weeks to just stop paying them. it would solve virtually everything but it's like trying to get a room full of toddlers to stop talking and work together for 5 minutes, so the chances of enough people doing it simultaneously that they can't follow through with consequences are astronomically low
