After Durham, voters want some serious FBI housecleaning done

The Durham Report, which faulted the FBI for meddling in the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections by conducting a seriously flawed investigation of alleged “collusion” between the Donald Trump campaign and Russia, shocked many Americans. Now, disappointed and angry with apparent politicization of the FBI, Americans strongly support sweeping changes at the nation’s top law enforcement agency, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows.

“As the more complete record now shows, there are specific areas of Crossfire Hurricane (the FBI’s covert investigation of the Trump campaign) activity in which the FBI badly underperformed and failed, not only in its duties to the public, but also in preventing the severe reputational harm that has befallen the FBI as a consequence of Crossfire Hurricane,” Special Counsel John Durham wrote in his report, closing a four-year investigation.

In particular, the 306-page report was scathing in its condemnation of the FBI’s use of “raw, unanalyzed, and uncorroborated intelligence” in investigating allegations of Trump’s “collusion” with Russia in the 2016 presidential election.

Did Durham’s powerful message of FBI misconduct get through to the American people?
