Jim Jordan: Joe Biden's 'Deliberate' Support of Illegal Immigration Could Lead to Impeachment\">political coordination<\/a>&#8221; within the FBI&#8217;s investigation into former President Donald Trump and alleged collusion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shapiro discussed Durham&#8217;s testimony on his Thursday show, highlighting the nearly four-year investigation that exposed an FBI that abandoned its mission and core principles to pursue a biased investigation against Trump.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3>The Worst Political Scandal in American History<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shapiro referred to Durham&#8217;s report as an &#8220;absolute disaster for Democrats&#8221; and labeled it as possibly the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/jury-acquits-clinton-campaign-attorney-but-prosecutors-prove-corporate-media-guilty\/\" title=\"Jury Acquits Clinton Campaign Attorney, But Prosecutors Prove Corporate Media Guilty\">worst political scandal<\/a> in American history. Despite its significance, the press largely ignored the report to protect the Obama administration. The initiation of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation was based on mere conjecture, as Shapiro previously wrote.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shapiro further explained that the investigation relied on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/russian-court-rejects-fmr-u-s-marines-sentencing-appeal\/\" title=\"Russian court rejects fmr. U.S. Marine\u2019s sentencing appeal\">flimsy evidence<\/a> and was initiated by agents who openly expressed their opposition to Trump.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3>Greenlighting an Investigation Based on Bias<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shapiro revealed that the FBI gave the green light to the investigation within days of receiving the weak information. Peter Strzok, a known Trump critic, played a role in initiating the investigation. It was launched before any dialogue with Russia, Australia, or the intelligence community, and before any critical analysis of the information itself.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In his report, Durham <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/john-durham-set-to-testify-in-congress-over-damning-report-on-fbi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">found<\/a> that the FBI opened the Crossfire Hurricane investigation into Trump&#8217;s campaign based on raw, unanalyzed, and uncorroborated intelligence. The FBI took allegations against Trump far more seriously than those against former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-describedby=\"sk-tooltip-9096\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1687352286746000&#038;usg=AOvVaw2XxW0VTdKx-2nQAhkiTR8M\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>During his testimony, Durham highlighted the presence of confirmation bias among FBI investigators, who ignored evidence that contradicted the narrative of Trump colluding with Russia.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3>A Systemic Failure<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shapiro emphasized that Durham&#8217;s findings infuriated Democrats because they suggest a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/sen-cruz-cancun-blame-stems-from-acute-trump-withdrawal-in-msm\/\" title=\"Sen. Cruz: Cancun blame stems from \u2018acute Trump withdrawal\u2019 in MSM\">systemic failure<\/a> within the FBI, extending beyond a few individuals. The investigation was marred by serious flaws and mishandling.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Durham also revealed that some current and former FBI agents apologized to him for the manner in which the investigation was conducted.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3>Real-Life Views from FBI Agents<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">During his Wednesday testimony, Durham shared that numerous FBI agents, both retired and still active, approached him to apologize for the flawed investigation.
