Political Parody As a Weapon, Part LXXXVII;
“A predictable sad ending to an investigation that never should have taken place.”
Last week, in Part LXXXVI, there was an examination of what might be dragging down the Navy’s recruiting efforts. This week, we will re-visit the subject of the movie speech parody in Part LI, who struck a nerve with the office of Special Counsel John Durham as the result of his ineptitude.
On Monday, May 15, Special Counsel John Durham issued his “REPORT ON MATTERS RELATED TO INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES AND INVESTIGATIONS ARISING OUT OF THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGNS”. The report lays out in great detail the malfeasance at FBI headquarters in 2016 in how it responded to allegations of illegal activities by the Hillary Clinton campaign as well as the aiding the campaign by cloaking its Russian collusion with Trump hoax with the legitimacy the agency once possessed.
Early in the report and throughout, the stooges at the highest level of the FBI at that time are identified as breaking their own rules in order to help Hillary Clinton to and keep Donald Trump from the U.S. Presidency. This part of the executive summary lays out the case fairly succinctly:
“As set forth in greater detail in Section IV, the record in this matter reflects that upon receipt of unevaluated intelligence information from Australia, the FBI swiftly opened the Crossfire Hurricane investigation. In particular, at the direction of Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, Deputy Assistant Director for Counterintelligence Peter Strzok opened Crossfire Hurricane immediately. 22 Strzok, at a minimum, had pronounced hostile feelings toward Trump. 23 The matter was opened as a full investigation without ever having spoken to the persons who provided the information. Further, the FBI did so without (i) any significant review of its own intelligence databases, (ii) collection and examination of any relevant intelligence from other U.S. intelligence entities, (iii) interviews of witnesses essential to understand the raw information it had received or (iv) using any of the standard analytical tools typically employed by the FBI in evaluating raw intelligence. Had it done so, again as set out in Sections IV.A.3.b and c, the FBI would have learned that their own experienced Russia analysts had no information about Trump being involved with Russian leadership officials, nor were others in sensitive positions at the CIA, the NSA, and the Department of State aware of such evidence concerning the subject. In addition, FBI records prepared by Strzok in February and March 2017 show that at the time of the opening of Crossfire Hurricane, the FBI had no information in its holdings indicating that at any time during the campaign anyone in the Trump campaign had been in contact with any Russian intelligence officials. 24
The speed and manner in which the FBI opened and investigated Crossfire Hurricane during the presidential election season based on raw, unanalyzed, and uncorroborated intelligence also reflected a noticeable departure from how it approached prior matters involving possible attempted foreign election interference plans aimed at the Clinton campaign …”
The report does clearly identify Peter Strzok as the Shemp Howard at FBI Headquarters, with results not dissimilar to what that stooge wrought in so many of the syndicated short films. Not content to have the public image of his disgraceful service to be encapsulated by his sneering face from the Congressional hearings in 2018 shortly before he was fired, Strzok continues to appear on lower rated cable news networks to offer critiques on a system from which he was fired. With respect to the Durham report, Strzok called it “…a predictable sad ending to an investigation that never should have taken place.” It was apparently lost on former Special Agent Strzok that he could have just as accurately been describing his dismissal from the FBI and Operation Crossfire Hurricane. Somehow, he has no satisfactory explanation in his book or television appearances for his failure to connect the hundreds of Treasury Department Suspicious Activity Reports that painted a picture of corrupt payments to the family of the sitting vice president while he was chasing imaginary Russian collusion, or the failure to document illegal foreign campaign contributions from foreigners to the Clinton campaign by his own agency’s confidential human source. It further appears while Strzok was colluding with Comey and McCabe to use their agency resources to frame Trump, they were impeding the corruption investigations at three field offices on the Clinton Foundation donations from foreign sources.
Given his selection of the lyrics from the Rolling Stones hit “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” to name his investigation, it might seem appropriate to borrow that song to parody the randy arrogant snob that the FBI entrusted with counterintelligence. While that could be a future endeavor, for some reason the 1974 Stealer’s Wheel hit “Stuck in the Middle With You” seemed to lend itself to this project. The fact that since the use of the song in the torture scene in the movie “Reservoir Dogs”, it will be forever associated with a sociopath enthralled with doing harm to others for his own purposes, until he is stopped by flawed and ethically challenged law enforcement. Since Strzok’s ability to abuse his office by taking critical unconstitutional shortcuts while his professional hours were filled instead with endless text messages to his mistress and co-conspirator rendered him so obviously unworthy of a position of trust and confidence that even the FBI considered him no longer worthy of employment, the use of this song seems appropriate for this dirty cop (though, given his intelligence training, treacherous spy might be a more worthy label, as even dirty cops have standards).
Well he didn’t follow all of the rules
That they taught him there in FBI schools
So busy with his mistress’s butt
That he thought he ought to take a short cut
Clowns in the F B I
Can’t get it right
Yet somehow Strzok had so little to do
Yes Strzok had so little to do
And one wonders what caused all his Trump rage
Was it his own thoughts or from Lisa Page
He was texting her from every old place
With that arrogant sneer on his face
Clowns in the F B I
Can’t get it right
Yet somehow Strzok had so little to do
Well it started off as nothing
But a lie made up by Hillary
But soon the FBI came crawling
Leaked it to the press and said SEE
SEE
Tried to make a case of it all
Process crimes would make some take a fall
As they ignored the real threats to our nation
Bribes to Biden and the Clinton Foundation
Clowns in the F B I
Can’t get it right
Yet somehow Strzok had so little to do
Well it started off as nothing
But a lie made up by Hillary
But soon the FBI came crawling
Leaked it to the press and said SEE
SEE
Well Durham wrote down what they didn’t do right
But they hope his words will never see light
And Strzok is called out in there by name
He, Comey and McCabe get the blame
Clowns in the F B I
Can’t get it right
Yet somehow Strzok had so little to do
Yet somehow Strzok had so little to do
Strzok had so little to do
Except maybe, send out a love text or two

Durham spent four years to conclude what we knew seven years ago: Crooked Hillary set up and paid for the Russia Hoax. Obama, Biden, Comey, Strzok, McCabe and the rest of the gang knew there was no evidence to support the Crooked Hillary Hoax. The media played along like the piano player in the saloons.
Durham could have done this in four months, not four years.
Convene a grand jury.
Subpoena Comey, etc.
Ask: what evidence do you have that Trump colluded with Russia? What evidence do you have for the FISA warrants?
This report should have been released before the 2020 election, and certainly before the 2022 elections.
Perhaps, as a professional courtesy to their colleagues who might have been charged, everything was slow walked by the investigators to get the potential criminal acts outside the statute of limitations.
As Donald would say, the swamp at work.
Durham did not subpoena Comey. Should have subpoenaed Crooked Hillary, Obama, AG Lynch, etc.
Barr, who appointed Durham, has now come out against Trump, saying that even though his polices were good, that he accomplished much despite the Hoax, but he (Barr) just cannot bring himself to support Donald.
