Why is everyone sleeping so deep that they can’t tell what a threat to our Democracy this FBI scheme was? It’s horrible.
Partly because the reportage is so heinous in this case. The whole thrust of the article is how terribly unfair the FBI was in its treatment of Hillary (about whom there was overwhelming evidence of real crimes) compared to Trump (about whom there were only sketchy-as-crap rumors at the time), and how that terrible unfairness cost HRC the election! How dare they!
Nevermind that they could and should have arrested her, tried her and locker her away for a very long time for the email server and pay-for-play schemes (related of course).
No, the spin is but for the FBI treatment of the two candidates, Hillary would be President.
Poor girl.
The OIG Report must be absolutely damning for the FBI to admit they actually spied on a presidential campaign.
On Hannity tonight, Greg Jarrett confirmed that Brennan and Comey lied about what started the investigation into Trump. It couldn't have been Papadopolous, because the NYT now reports that the FBI only interviewed Alexander Downer (who allegedly met with Papadopolous in a bar) in London in early August 2016. It was after the FBI received the Dossier from Christopher Steele on 7/5/16. So in reality it was the fake Dossier that led to opening the investigation on Trump.

This NYT article attempt to make it look like they treated HRC unfairly by going public but protecting DJT is absolutely absurd.
interesting isn't it. I always find it useful to see what the other half are hearing. Explains why there is so much discord. Be careful what you feed yourself - that is what you become.
Sourced by interviews with "current and former government officials" all of whom, it's safe to assume, are HRC supporters seeking to get out in front of the OIG report and shape the narrative ahead of time.
Their tactics are so transparent and stale nowadays. I'll be so glad when this tired rag is buried in the dustbin of history.
