DOJ activity indicates John Durham preparing indictments, John Solomon reports

Activity within the Justice Department indicates U.S. Attorney John Durham is working to bring the first indictments as part of a criminal investigation into the Russia inquiry, according to investigative journalist John Solomon.

Solomon, a controversial reporter who similarly reported criminal investigative activity related to Durham’s efforts months ago, told Fox Business host Lou Dobbs on Tuesday that people are frustrated by the wait, asserting there already is “overwhelming evidence in the public record” that crimes were committed during the Russia investigation.

Solomon, who is now the editor in chief of Just the News, faced criticism last year when his reporting on Ukraine for the Hill got swept up into the impeachment investigation of President Trump and became subject to a review that found he “failed” to identify “important details about key Ukrainian sources.” Still, even as the tilt of Solomon’s reporting has come into question, he does still boast insider knowledge at the Justice Department that has been borne out.

“My sources tell me there’s a lot of activity. I’m seeing, personally, activity behind the scenes of the Justice Department,” Solomon said on Tuesday, adding that Durham’s team “is trying to bring those first indictments, and I would look for a time around Labor Day to see the first sort of action by the Justice Department.”

Solomon insisted that he is “seeing a lot of activity consistent with building prosecutions and preparing for criminal plea bargains,” but also acknowledged that none of this may lead to anything.

“That doesn’t mean it’ll happen,” Solomon said. “Until someone signs and until they bring them before the grand jury. You never know if it’s going to happen.”

Solomon said he is hearing from defense lawyers and people “on the prosecution side” that complications with the coronavirus pandemic are “slowing down” the grand jury process.

“But everything I’m seeing on the ground, real reporting, suggests that there’s an ongoing criminal investigation intent on bringing indictments and possibly some plea bargains. The first action, the first evidence of it in the public will probably be around Labor Day. That’s an awful long time to wait, but I do see activity that looks like they’re building a criminal case right now,” he said.

Little is known about Durham’s investigation into misconduct by federal law enforcement and intelligence officials during the Crossfire Hurricane investigation that was later wrapped into special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into ties between the Trump campaign and Russia. The only time Durham has spoken out about the inquiry is when he released a statement in December disputing DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s conclusion that the opening of the FBI’s counterintelligence investigation in the summer of 2016 was properly predicated.

Only a few media reports have been published over the past year offering a keyhole view into the Connecticut federal prosecutor’s work, including that one former FBI lawyer who altered a document related to the surveillance of a 2016 Trump campaign adviser had come under criminal investigation.

Attorney General William Barr, who is facing increasing scrutiny from Democrats concerned about the alleged politicization of the Justice Department, recently told Fox News he anticipates “developments” in Durham’s investigation by the end of the summer.

Rep. Devin Nunes, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, told Fox News late last month that it is a “good sign” that there are so few leaks coming out of Durham’s investigation.

He is utterly unintelligible without a teleprompter. So is Biden, but the latter can be historically funny with his gaffes. Obumfook, however, the Kenyan-born IslamoMarxist fluff-boy with a man-wife is as vicious as a rabid skunk.

For the French in 1944, the Allied invasion was always “right around the corner.”

Then, in June it came, finally – but that was then, and this is now.

Regarding John Durham’s “imminent” indictments – I’ll believe it when I see it.

The good guys need something to hit back with. Been on the defense for years. Obama is and was poison. This BLM BS has taken over the narrative.

Time to remind people where it’s all coming from!

Anything not in line with the main stream media crowd is by definition controversial, and in their opinion, likely hate speech.

They know the media is waiting for any indictments with the type already set for every kind of insult and accusation imaginable and accusations of political indictments. Likely Barr would be impeached and maybe even thrown out of the AG office by Republicans for a couple more votes at the ballot box, although I don’t think many votes are going to change by now since people know who they’re voting for and probably have known for a couple of years.They’ll vote Biden even if he raped Tara Read, and a New York Times columnist said she believed Tara Read but was voting for Biden anyway because of his record, so the Democrats don’t care at all about anything except Democrat.
I doubt they’ll indict anyone, unless it’s a janitor who didn’t clean up the floor or something, but certainly no recognizable names, and big names will likely be out campaigning.

I have to agree. The only indictments from this justice dept. would be confessions, and I don’t think that will happen.

Yes, indictments on the way, maybe by end of summer in 2021, then will be only the secretaries of these high-level criminals, who will stay free to attack us. If Durham doesn’t get the job done, then the job would fall to intel or military operatives to clean out the anti-American gangsters.

“That doesn’t mean it’ll happen,” Solomon said. “Until someone signs and until they bring them before the grand jury. You never know if it’s going to happen.”
In other words, they haven’t they taken it to a grand jury. In fact, they haven’t impaneled a grand jury. Not to mention that the grand jury may refuse to indict, as they refused to do with Andrew McCabe.
Sounds like wishful thinking.
