What can this guy possibly tell us about Durham that hasn’t already been revealed?

We know Durham was a stooge for the right-wing, he’s been revealed for it. I just don’t know what else I need to know about the guy when I really can’t miss him because he just won’t go away.

Maybe that Durham secretly likes dandelion salads?

The request doesn’t identify the client by name, but its description of their background and history matches – and could only really match – Igor Danchenko, the Russian-born U.S. citizen intelligence analyst who was hired to compile portions of the Steele Dossier.

Doesn’t US law prohibit criminals from profiting from narratives of their crimes? Oh yeah, he was quickly acquitted of all charges and isn’t a criminal.

No offense, but can you possibly imagine how little I care about this guy?

He did what he did and now he can go away, having accomplished nothing. Were I him (and I’m not), I’d be embarrassed to show my face around company, polite or otherwise…

I do like this idea. Danchenko has a great story to tell. He will need a very knowledgeable and skilled ghost if his story is to have significant impact.

What’s that Ronan Farrow kid doing these days?

Yes, but for the MAGA crowd, you have to keep hitting them over the head before something sinks in… besides, it’s just fun to watch the call & response.

one part political drama and one part high-stakes espionage thriller that offers chilling insights into flaws in the US justice system, all framed around an everyman whose American Dream was transformed into an American nightmare by corrupt and partisan legislators and justice officials

Doesn’t sound like it’s about Durham

Why should we care about this non-entity? I know and so do others that there is far more urgent news worth coverage out there which could be presented to us. John Durham? Igor Danchenko? The enemy is closer at hand than either of these two.

You can’t really be serious.

We have to stop playing nice and beat the motherfucking shit out of these fascists.

Repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat.

Until it sinks in. You know, like the way St. Ronnie’s racist horseshit “welfare queens driving Cadillacs” was so beaten into us I’m pretty sure the fucking Republicans added it to the pledge of allegiance.
