In fact, from some of the quoted passages from the Durham report in this article, I'd say that it goes far to confirm what many on the Right have been suspecting for years; The FBI turned a blind eye to the Clinton Campaign's made up attempt to frame and sabotage the Trump campaign, leading up to the 2016 election and much of his presidency.

The abuse of power and dereliction of duty by the FBI is no small thing that should be excused, simply because Donald Trump has a decidedly bad character. Many on the Left are absolutely fine with the actions of these so-called government servants. I wonder how they will feel when the day comes that the shoe is on the other foot? It's already happening in some states, like right here in Ohio. The Republican held State Legislature has moved to make it a 60% majority to get previously enacted legislation reversed, when it was (and should have remained 50% +1).

I am all for shortening the leash on law enforcement and am quite pleased we are seeing folks on the right finally getting on board with that, I just don't understand how so much hay is being made about a report that pretty much just reiterates the OIG findings and where the issues have already been resolved. That, combined with people trying to say this "exonerates Trump" when it does nothing of the sort really baffles me.
