While Monday's testimony by Horowitz and FBI Director Christopher Wray was certainly eye-opening - Congressional Investigators uncovered several game-changing bombshells on Tuesday that will re-frame the entire discussion. Hat-tip to Paul Sperry for reporting these stunning developments in real time.
- There were no actual subjects of the Hillary Clinton email investigation, meaning that neither Hillary nor any of her top aides - including Huma Abedin and the IT guys who set up her illegal server and then used "bleachbit" to destroy evidence (for which they received immunity) - were ever under any direct FBI scrutiny. Horowitz found this "surprising."
IG HOROWITZ DROPS BOMBSHELL DURING SENATE TESTIMONY:
"Nobody was listed as a subject of this [Clinton email] investigation at any point in time," adding this was "surprising"
So neither Hillary nor her top aides were formally under investigation by FBI at any time in 2015-2016!

June 19, 2018- There is at least one and possibly more original drafts of the OIG report, which were subsequently redlined by DOJ/FBI higher-ups.
Horowitz just confirmed that there indeed was an original draft of his 568-pp report that was subsequently redlined by DOJ/FBI higher-ups. It's imperative that Congress obtain this early version before the swamp rats edited and revised it for obvious CYA purposes

- Horowitz is no longer convinced that the FBI was collecting all of Strzok and Page's texts, even outside the five-month window in which a technical "glitch" (after the 2016 election) prevented archiving.
BREAKING: IG Horowitz now says he's no longer convinced the FBI was collecting all of Strzok's and Page's text messages EVEN OUTSIDE THE 5-MONTH BLACKOUT period when it archived none of the texts due to a technical "glitch." So a # of other Strzok responses to Page likely missing

June 19, 2018- Horowitz is investigating allegations that FBI officials "edited" agents' 302 forms - which doument an interview with a suspect or a witness.
BREAKING: IG Horowitz confirmed that he is investigating allegations that FBI officials "edited" agents' 302 summary reports of interviews with witnesses and suspects in the 2016-2017 investigations (including Gen. Flynn)

Don't do many predictions, but here goes: the Flynn 302 is a composite 302. The source materials were not just edited but deleted prior to Flynn's prosecution.
There is precedent for this: Mueller's #2 Weissmann destroyed 302s and drafts/notes.

Hannity: A source of mine told me tonight that when Wray read this, it shocked him to his core.
Sara Carter: Shocked him to his core, and not only that, the Inspector General's report - I have been told tonight by a number of sources, there's indicators right now that McCabe may have asked FBI agents to actually change their 302's - those are their interviews with witnesses. So basically every time an FBI agent interviews a witness, they have to go back and file a report.
I caught Sally Yates' team doing this years ago in Atlanta: taking different pieces of different memorandums of interview, excising parts that hurt her case, & threading together disparate parts from multiple sources to create a misleading single narrative.
@GenFlynn case too?

This may also explain why Mueller has agreed to postpone Flynn's sentencing "due to the status of the special counsel's investigation."
- The two anti-Trump / pro-Clinton agents we reported on Friday who were having an extramarital affair were "unmasked" by House Judiciary member Mark Meadows (R-NC) after Horowitz testified that one of the two - who interviewed Hillary Clinton - was referred for discipline.
BREAKING: IG Horowitz just testified that 1 of the unidentified other pro-Clinton FBI investigators referred for discipline was one of the agents who interviewed Hillary Clinton on July 2, 2016, along with Strzok

June 19, 2018 *** BREAKING NEWS ***
Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) just outed 2 of the unidentified anti-Trump, pro-Hillary FBI investigators referred for punishment by IG & both work for the general counsel of FBI, not in "counterintelligence" as the FBI claimed as an excuse to w/hold their names

Then, in a different text exchange with one of the other three Clinton email investigators (not Peter Strzok or Lisa Page), another agent wrote "screw you trump" after the first agent admitted "You should know...that I'm...with her."
This means that all four FBI case agents working the Hillary Clinton email investigation - the other two being Peter Strzok and Lisa Page - were ardent Clinton supporters, and at least three harbored animus towards Trump.
The report released yesterday by the inspector general for the Department of Justice referred to these two FBI agents not by their names but as “Agent 1” and “Agent 5.”
The report said of these FBI agents that “
we identified two instant message exchanges that appeared to combine a discussion of politics with the Midyear investigation.” (The FBI referred to the Clinton email investigation as “Midyear Exam,” “Midyear,” or “MYE.”) -
CNS News
Clinton was interviewed by FBI agents on July 2 about her use of a private, unsecured email server which housed classified information while she was Secretary of State. According to the IG report, however, the FBI had already decided against recommending prosecution unless Clinton lied or confessed.
“By the time of Clinton’s interview on July 2, we found that the Midyear agents and prosecutors, along with Comey, had decided that absent a confession or false statements by Clinton, the investigation would be closed without charges,” reads the IG report.
Vital Miscellany
Shooting down a Dem/MSM talking point, Horowitz testified, "We did NOT find no bias in regard to the October 2016 events." Strzok's choice to make pursuing the Russia espionage case a bigger priority than reopening the Clinton espionage case suggested "that was a BIASED decision"

June 19, 2018 9 times DOJ IG Horowitz contradicted FBI Director Wray while they were sitting right next to each other, but nobody seemed to notice. My latest in
