Who's Ready For The IG Report On Potential FISA Abuse?

FBI Director Christopher Wray, with Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz testifies as the Senate Judiciary Committee examines the internal report of the FBI's Clinton email probe and the role of former FBI Director James Comey's actions during the 2016 presidential campaign, on Capitol Hill in Washington, Monday, June 18, 2018.

Fox News host Sean Hannity said on his show last night that his sources tell him the report may already be in the hands of Attorney General William Barr and that it could be released as early as this week.

Hannity said in May the report was already completed and it was "Devastating."

The Washington Examiner recounts the focus of the report and re-ups statements made by Fox News analyst Gregg Jarrett about which Russia collusion investigation players could be affected by its release.

If the report is released this week it comes at an opportune time since Democrats led by Rep. Jerry Nadler are set to hold Barr and former White House counsel Don McGahn in contempt of Congress next week for ignoring Congressional subpoenas, according to Democrat sources.

In an April 23 piece, Real Clear Politics explains how Inspector General Michael Horowitz's report, begun in Spring 2018, may "Hamper" impeachment plans.

Nadler is quite bold in dismissing what the players did to obtain FISA warrants as something less than abuse, particularly when he hasn't yet seen the report.
