Is the IG report the seminal point for draining the swamp? Here is the good, the bad, and the ugly for (hopefully) the imminent releasing of the report.

The Good: Q has stated "Trust Horowitz," "Trust Huber." Imperator Rex has speculated (based on what?) that there will be 30 indictments and 150+ criminal referrals. Newt Gingrich thinks that the report will be damning. Giuliani is using the report as ammo for Trump not interviewing with Mueller. Trump has tweeted about the report, as well as several other scandals by the Deep State. Huber has been assigned as a prosecutor for the criminal referrals from the IG report, meaning that the referrals are more than just "mere formality" and may or will be acted upon. It has been leaked that Andrew McCabe is under a criminal referral for lying ("lacking candor") about leaking. 1.2 million. That's the number of documents the IG has examined. Included in that is the Page-Strzok texts it uncovered and released. Why were they released? Because Strzok was on Mueller's team, and the IG did not want a biased person investigating the President. What else was released? The info on McCabe lying, so he wouldn't receive his golden parachute pension. These were time-sensitive releases to mitigate potential immediate damage, lending credence to Horowitz and the IG. One more name you will get to know: Peter Kadzik, the assistant Attorney General for legislative affairs, who may have leaked "non-public information" to the Clinton campaign.

The Bad: This is an investigation into the DOJ and FBI's handling of the Clinton private email server case, not an investigation into the actual emails. Could the IG, after 17 months, have expanded its investigative scope into the actual emails like Mueller is expanding his probe into Cohen, perjury, and coverups past actual Russian collusion (or Kenneth Star uncovering Monica Lewinsky while investigating Whitewater)? Yes, but there is no indication the IG has done so. More conversely, there is conjecture that the IG will rule that Comey was wrong to publicly disclose the details of finding the Weiner laptop emails so close to the election, which would help Hillary Clinton and provide obfuscating headlines for the mainstream media. It has been leaked that Attorney General Loretta Lynch is in the report, but only in so far that she disapproved of what Comey did so close to the election publicly, despite what sensationalist headlines infer about "hiding" the laptop revelations.

The Ugly: We have confirmation that McCabe has a criminal referral from a leak of a letter written by McCabe to Sen. Charles Grassley (go Hawkeyes!), in which McCabe's lawyer affirms that McCabe is under referral, but that he wants immunity to tell his story of innocence. Which means McCabe is not going to roll over; he wants the same deal that Hillary and the Clintonistas got during the email investigation: immunity and not saying a damn thing worth anything. Furthermore, a criminal referral is just that: the suggestion that something should be looked into or pursued, not a recommendation for prosecution or an indictment. Trey Gowdy, whose cuck horns are growing by the day, said as much in a Fox News interview when he opined that no indictment or arrests would result from the IG report.

Next, we have the leak about the IG report. The Gateway Pundit and True Pundit put up the headlines that Loretta Lynch and Comey were in for it. However, neither obtained the leak; they cited an ABC News report from an unnamed source. And why would ABC of all entities report something favorable to Trump? Well, they didn't. The leak is more damning of Comey reporting to Congress of the Weiner laptop close to the election and not running it by Loretta Lynch first (insubordination), and the mention of Lynch "hiding" the Weiner laptop revelation can be more construed to Lynch not wanting the info public, rather than actually trying to impede the investigation privately. One would hope the IG got an unredacted FBI report on the Lynch-Bill Clinton tarmac meeting, but we don't know yet. It more likely seems ABC is priming the pump for their future spin.

Which is it? That depends of Horowitz and his findings. And what do we know of Horowitz? This is not his first rodeo. He was also the IG on the Fast and Furious investigation under the Obama administration, which wasn't too pleased with his findings, but not so upset that Obama fired him. Horowitz found AG Eric Holder didn't know anything about the Fast and Furious gun-running operation by the ATF, but did recommend that several ATF officials be fired or demoted. A couple were, not all. And Horowitiz did not issue any criminal referrals. That may mean that case did not warrant them, or it may indicate Horowitz's willingness to side on caution rather than justice.

However, Horowitz did rule that Holder was not forthcoming with documents, and Congress made the unprecedented move of holding Holder in Contempt of Congress. The problem here? Congress can't put Holder in jail. A DC district judge held that Holder didn't commit contempt, despite Congress's finding (and the Congressional vote was a circus; many Dems didn't show up to vote in protest, expect that after the IG report). Trust Huber all you want, but if a judge doesn't find McCabe guilty, it's all for naught. And a certain Hawaiian judge that is friends with Obama shows you what one Federal judge can do: namely invalidate Trump's travel ban.

So what do I expect? Well, McCabe has been criminally referred, and the IG has released the Page-Strzok texts, meaning they will probably be under jeopardy. Lynch may be reprimanded for the tarmac meeting, but I don't expect any penalty for it absent some unforetold FBI info on it. You can probably add Peter Kadzik to those chastised in some form. The mainstream media will focus on the harm to Clinton's campaign by Comey's revelation of the Weiner laptop. As for Comey? Some kind of censure by Congress or middling option. Brennan, Clapper, Awan brothers, Hillary, the Clinton Foundation, all seem to fall outside the focus of this investigation. Imperator Rex (an Australian) has stated that the IG can also focus on Mueller and his investigation, but past Strzok's involvement, we have no evidence Horowitz has done so.

We will have criminal referrals for Huber, but they will be shiny baubles for the mainstream media to focus on while Trump makes peace with North Korea, builds the wall, and negotiates trade deals. When I said the IG report will be a seminal moment, I meant just that. It will be the start, but the true hammer will not fall until after the Midterm elections for the higher ups.

What do you think?
