Ted Lieu just destroyed John Durham to his face

The John Durham probe was never going to go anywhere or have any impact on anything. It was always just Bill Barr’s way of making Donald Trump think that the people who investigated the Trump-Russia scandal were somehow going to be punished.

Ted Lieu summed it up best when he said “I don’t actually know what we’re doing here.” The Durham probe was a non-event that went nowhere and changed nothing, just like it was always going to be.

At least we’ll probably never have to hear from, or about, John Durham again after today.
