too far but essentially wasted americans times and efforts is now coming with the is dotted and the ts crossed. david spunt has more from the justice department. good afternoon. 306 pages from john durham transmitted this to attorney general merrick garland friday. garland looked it over, decided to release it to the public. did not change one word. he didn t add anything. so now it s public. durham says the conclusions from his own research and we re talking four years, he said those conclusions are sobering. may 13th, 2019, when he came on board at the request of then attorney general bill barr to look at the origins of the trump russia collusion narrative. he lost two high profile cases in court but secured a guilty plea from a former fbi attorney. this today is his narrative to the public after four years of work. the cost over $6 million in taxpayer money. first we have to do back, neil, to the years 2016 and 17. the primary focus of this report. the overarching theme
goes without saying. do you think more punishment should have been needed out? we talk about the report of mr. durham, having nothing to do with him or his case. but it s a low ranking fbi person that misrepresented something, lied, and that s it. that s it for this whole can it and caboodle. i believe accountability is necessary.when there s no accountability, things happen. i have some ideaing but i m not in charge. i loved working for the fbi. you sacrifice so much for this country. it s hard for americans to believe that when they see this record come out. many of us have nothing to do with this. they re trying to hold individuals involved.
people involved are no longer with the fbi. i understand that. but you can t rebuild someone s trust in an organization overnight. the problem is that if that type of behavior continues to be observed, americans still believe that the fbi is acting in a political nature or doj is acting in a political nature. many don t believe it s completely changed since 2016 and 17. that needs to be corrected. neil: do you think that we have overzealous prosecutors? going to investigations, whether it s concerns donald trump and financial issues, that maybe don t rise to the important of indicting a former president or looking at, you know, a president and high ranking officials from multiple administrations going back decades for classified documents that the knee-jerk push to prosecute, prosecute, prosecute has gotten out of control?
with low-cost options to help maximize savings. from the plains to the coasts, we help americans invest for their future. and help communities thrive. lowe s knows you never come in for just one thing. so we ve got to know a lot of things about a lot of things. like which mower makes the cut. the mulch that finishes the look. and picking a color that pops.
