The long-awaited findings of special counsel John Durham’s probe into the FBI’s investigation of former President Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign led some Republican lawmakers on Monday …

that the bureau lacked evidence to launch a “seriously flawed” investigation into the former president’s alleged collusion with Russia in 2016.

“The long-awaited Durham Report confirmed what the American people already know; that individuals at the highest levels of government attempted to overthrow democracy when they illegally weaponized the federal government against Donald J. Trump,” Stefanik said in a statement. “John Durham concluded that ‘neither U.S. nor the Intelligence Community appears to have possessed any actual evidence of collusion … This is what weaponized govt. looks like and why I seek to defund the FBI/DOJ. Imagine what else they are doing too,” Biggs tweeted.

Rep. Elise Stefanik called the report proof of the federal government being weaponized against Trump.The Republican senator argued the Crossfire Hurricane investigation “is as corrupt and as subversive of the Constitution as it gets.”Rep. Jerry Nadler , ranking member on the House Judiciary Committee, dismissed Durham’s findings on Monday, calling the report a “political rehashing” of what the Department of Justice Inspector General found in 2019.

Prosecutor ends probe of FBI's Trump-Russia investigation with harsh criticism, but no new chargesProsecutor ends probe of FBI's Trump-Russia investigation with harsh criticism, but no new chargesA special prosecutor has ended his four-year investigation into possible FBI misconduct in its probe of ties between Russia and Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign. The report Monday from special counsel John Durham offers withering criticism of the bureau but a meager court record that fell far short of the former president’s prediction he would uncover the “crime of the century.” It represents the long-awaited culmination of an investigation that Trump and allies had claimed would expose massive wrongdoing by law enforcement and intelligence officials. Instead, Durham’s investigation delivered underwhelming results, with prosecutors securing a guilty plea from a little-known FBI employee but losing the only two criminal cases they took to trial.
