Rep. McCaul: Those Responsible For Miscarriage of Justice at FBI and DOJ "Must Be Held Accountable"

WASHINGTON — U.S. Congressman Michael McCaul (R-Texas) today released the following statement on Special Counsel John Durham’s report denouncing the FBI and DOJ's flawed investigation into former President Trump's alleged collusion with Russia. The report found the FBI had no basis upon which to launch the investigation and "failed to uphold their mission of strict fidelity to the law."

“As a former U.S. attorney, I know that justice, equality, and impartiality are the bedrock of our legal system. Special Counsel Durham’s report shows just how miserably the DOJ and FBI failed in upholding those values when they launched this investigation into former President Trump without predication.

“It’s shameful that a select group of individuals — through this irresponsible and deceitful probe — have risked the reputation of some of our most crucial federal agencies, whose rank and file members serve our nation with integrity. To ensure Americans can maintain faith in our legal system, those responsible for this miscarriage of justice must be held accountable.”
