re: NYT : Barr's belief that FBI probe was not legitimate is based directly on Durham findings

Horowitz will deem them reckless in failing to verify it and presenting it to the court. Will be some other procedural improprieties noted and maybe one criminal referral for the underlying. But as reported, he will find that they had a valid basis for the prosecution (based on bogus CIA info provided)

I’m convinced OIGs exist NOT to hold people accountable, but instead to make recommendations for corrective action when problems are discovered, and prevent them from recurring.

If you view it through that lense, past OIG findings make perfect sense, and may predict what we should expect next week.

I’d suggest Durham exists for accountability. Not Horowitz.
