<b>At the risk of repeating myself....</b>
ttps://i.imgur.com/rA7OnYy.jpg I think people are going to be VERY disappointed by "the Big Ugly",if anything like a "Big Ugly" ever arrives at all.
The anticipated 3rd or 4th? Horowitz OIG report will be the SAME as the previous ones. Why would people expect otherwise?
As I often quote, from Chris Farrell (Judicial Watch): <i> "The OIG is the place where the truth goes to die" </i>
That is the way things are in Government Bureaucracies the world over
Committees, and inquiries, reviews, probes and reports are part of the system. "Reports" are not meant to solve much in themselves...certainly NOT expose all the department's "dirty laundry" in public. Their main purpose is to "cover up" any serious issues that might damage the Department (or whatever entity) is involved, and to perhaps make "recommendations" for such things as training courses, reeducation etc....and most importantly..to recommend MORE ongoing reviews, more reports etc...
LEAKS from the current pending OIG are showing up in WaPo and (failing) NYTimes.. reported on FakeNews CNN etc. An FBI "low level lawyer" apparently altered a document in FISA application. Guy worked for devil-face (Strzok).. so make of that what you will.
<b> NYT: Peter Strzok Team Underling, Kevin Clinesmith</b>

This is about the most I would expect from these investigations A low level "fall guy" for a minor crime. I do not think there will ever be any of the TOP players indicted... or even middle level.. and any indictments will be for minor crimes, maybe just process crimes as the Dems pulled on Trump people.
I don't think there can be any Top level people indicted.. because the real crimes are SERIOUS OFFENSES, involving multiple people closely entangled.. and one person indicted would lead to the rest. They will NOT want to go anywhere near the REAL crimes, such as espionage, sedition, treason etc. which have serious penalties, because even low level participants in those crimes MUST implicate a conspiracy of people seeking power, and in fact a "Coup" to block/unseat Trump as President. It would go all the way up to Obama, taking a lot of his administration along with him. Again if one person goes down, then LOTS of others would have to go too. I'd love to see mass public hangings at the Lincoln Memorial... but it aint gonna happen.
<b>Washington Post is Pay-wall.. but this is quoted from there...</b>
<blockquote>That conduct did not alter Horowitz’s finding that the surveillance application of former
Trump campaign adviser Carter Page had a <b>proper legal and factual basis</b>, the officials said.</blockquote>
So... as expected it looks like the OIG report will be the place where THE TRUTH dies..
<i>FISA "had proper legal factual basis"</i>... yeah right!!
<b>The evidence is real, the indictments are fake</b>
