You must be watching CNN... oh wait a second... CNN didn't even cover the Horowitz testimony. So you are only hearing what they have to say about it. You must have only heard that there is no "evidence" of political bias in their actions, while forgetting that there is no evidence that there was not political bias either. You can't prove how anyone "feels" about anything, unless they come out and say it under oath. But that's the shiny object to distract from the fact that the Nunes memo has been proven correct, the FBI used the Steele Dossier to obtain FISA warrants, and they altered, and completely left out, all the information that would have killed their operation.And Horowitz just blew all the Trump/Barr talking points out of the water, both with his report and with his remarks before the Senate, not that it stopped Barr from mis-characterizing his findings, again.
Michael Horowitz is very limited because he cannot compel anyone to interview that no longer works for the government... no such limitation exists for the criminal investigation of John Durham. We got everything we wanted from Horowitz. I'm extremely pleased.

Moving a goalpost into the unknown it seems. Trying to prove a negative is a fools errand and overall bad philosophical. Btw I get my info from our national news agency, we no need no american agency to read or understand english, so we do fine making our own newsreports.
Nunes memo spoke about the Steele Dossier being the sole origin of the FISA, let me debunk you with some actual findigns from Horowitz. Please read on page II, left side. Yes Steele Dossier helped sourcing the need for a FISA application, in part cause the FBI credits Steele as a credible human source (or CHS). No it wasn't the sole source nor was it the known prior to the actual investigation starting.

There is no reason to release anything other than a fishing expedition.Next stop friday and SCOTUS deciding if they want to hear Trumps pity pleading of not following Congressional subpoena's surrounding his finances.
.
They can fish all they want cause that is exactly what they are empowered to do. Kinda like how Starr kept fishing after Whitewater and eventually found Lewinsky.
Heck it is a straight lawfull request between Congress and the IRS. You can pull "executive priviledge" to it like Trump did, but then I want to throw back your notion to prove a negative. We can't prove anything bad is in it before we have seen it as much as Trump can prove it is all on the level without releasing it.

Bullshit. I actually want a trial in the Senate because I want to see this "whistleblower". My bet is "he" doesn't exist, and this entire ordeal was crafted by Adam Schiff and the Never Trumpers they put up on display. There is no crime, no evidence of a crime, and is only a Hail Mary because they know they have no one that can beat him in an election. But McConnell will probably take a motion to dismiss, call a vote, and the whole thing goes down that fast.Meanwhile Senate GOP is loudly considering making the entire impeachement trial a farce by not actually hearing any witnesses, probably cause even the few they did found willing to come end up painting the same bad stuff the rest have testified about.
.
I said GOP want to play like that, and also made the jury confir with the defendant, but lets ignore that due to difference between impeachment and an actual court of law procedure. Democrats don't even need the whistleblower anyway cause several first-line witnesses already gave testimony of the extortion coupled with what perhaps is the most crucial but still undisclosed smoking gun: the actual call (in transcript or not). Kinda like Nixon't tapes...
Also, (s)he is protected, exactly to stop being clearly intimidated by Trump like he already did. That adds to the abuse of power and reeks of witness intimidation.

I get tired of repeating myself.you even stopped actually finding rebukes to my point.
.
I don't get tired of repeating myself, I just lose faith in you as a rational person.
.
I don't know what you're talking about... everything I have been talking about for 3 years is true.GOPers talking besides the facts laid out just to shout wacky conspiracies and fanthom hoaxes.
You =/ all GOPers. I aint putting you on the stance here, I am nailing congressional republicans to it cause of their actions.
