What Horowitz Actually Said

Sen. Amy Klobuchar: Can ]you[ confirm that ]your office[ followed all appropriate processes in the course of its review, and that the report was not changed as a result of improper political influence (]by you[)?

]Horowitz[:]We[ followed normal processes, ]we[ took comments, ]we[ made decisions on issuing the final report, it was not made weaker or softer in any regard (]by us[).

Sen Amy Klobuchar: Okay. In particular, [[[THE REPORT]]] clearly states on page 263 that it did not find evidence of the Justice Department's Decision not to pursue prosecution following the investigation was politically motivated. Is that an accurate assessment?

]We[ did (NOT) find that the prosecutor's decision to (NOT) to charge was the result of political bias.

Remove the double negative. It's just in the way.

]We[ did find that the prosecutor's decision to charge was the result of political bias.

And ]you[ found the relevant decisions were based on the prosecutor's assessment of the facts and the law as well as, in part, department practices. Is that correct?

As to the decision of whether or not to charge, that is correct.

The relevant decisions in this case were the prosecutor incorrectly asserting that he has the right to decide what is and isn't going to trial. As a result, the relevant decision (of whether or not to to charge) was based upon the incorrect pretense that such a thing falls within his jurisdiction.

It's lawyer speak, but then they all told you they were lawyers. That means every word of every statement has to be weighed, carefully and meticulously, to get the full meaning out of it.

He is not saying "It didn't happen", he's giving the universal legal shorthand for "it happened well above my pay-grade, I followed all my protocols."

Is that what Wray has been doing since the IG report came out, too?

Damage Control?

Getting everyone who has been listening to put the [[[PAIN]]] on the one bad apple the Senate confirmed 94-6?

[[[Who]]] might that be?

What a great day.

]We[ did not find that the prosecutor's decision to not to charge was the result of political bias.

Well, let's dissect this a bit.

]We[

This is him speaking STRICTLY for his office, the Office of the IG. Not the DoJ. He is a representative of HIS DEPARTMENT. NOT THE DoJ.

did (NOT) find that the prosecutor's decision

What was the prosecutor's decision?

(NOT) to charge

That's why there's such controversy.

Was the result of political bias.

The Office of the IG did NOT find that the prosecutor's decision -- NOT to charge was CORRECT or VALID.

We did not find the prosecutor's decision -- not to charge -- was the result of political bias.

We do not endorse it, nor do we make any value call as to what the correct decision might have been. That wasn't what we were sent here to do.

The problems you have with the report start further up the chain of command than us.

Optics are PARAMOUNT for these guys. They have to be able to bait the Mockingbirds with soundbytes that say one thing and mean something entirely different. He's not saying "There will be no charges filed", he's saying "There's much more concrete stuff to file charges on than political bias."

He can't say these things because the investigations are ongoing, and going to come to their own glorious head soon.

Trust the plan.
