At least Durham can always be proud of his strong chin and square jaw.

Durham becomes a top 5 wraith of the Trump era after this defeat, no?

Steele Dossier got the general essence of the Russian interference campaign in the 2016 elections right pretty much in real time. Manafort, Flynn, Cohen (and I believe Gates?) were all named in the dossier and each faced investigation, prosecution and conviction (by trial or plea). The Trumpers kept the notion of the Dossier being ā€˜wrongā€™ by raising the bar for an intel document. History will vindicate what Steele did.

Lost, like a dog. Sad (or weak).

I saw this headline, ran into my garage to grab a football, then ran into the backyard to spike it.

Itā€™s not clear what Durhamā€™s next move will be.

Can I suggest sepuku.

ETA. Oops. Boy did I get this wrong. That would only happen if Durham had some sense of honor.
Sorry.

Oh, how sad.

Thatā€™s sarcasm. Durham did it to himself and deserves the scorn he will reap.

Right before COVID hit I remember a Trumpnik guy in my neighborhood telling me the Durham Report was going be a bombshell, and ā€œexpose Democrat dirty tricks.ā€ Well. Here we are.

[Edit: I wish now that three years ago when Durham began his uneventful journey Iā€™d said to that Trumpnik ā€œOK, letā€™s make a bet here-- you describe in some detail what you think will happen with the Durham Report, and I describe what I think will happen.ā€ Then wager something on it, $20 or lunch or something that would commemorate the loss officially. Chances are he would weasel out of it somehow anyway, since he thinks WMDs might still be found in Iraq. No joke.]

If you count verdicts, pleas, and indictments, Mueller was far ahead, but I long ago lost track.

I wonder how much money he got paid to keep this going.

Disgusting.

An Alexandra, Virginia federal jury acquitted researcher Igor Danchenko on four counts, after deliberating for one day.

ā€œDefund Juries!ā€ ā€“ Trump lickers, probably.

The tricks are so dirty, they canā€™t even be found. The Dems are that good. The Republicans, on the other hand, are so pure that every tiny indiscretion gets disclosed and amplified.
