Kim Strassel on FISA Abuse: ‘There Was Bias’ Because ‘All Errors’ Outlined in IG Report Go ‘In One Direction’ Against Trump

‘Anyone with a brain who looks at this of course there was bias’

STRASSEL: "Well, Maria, it is really important to talk about what the I.G. really did find in terms of political bias because it has been mischaracterized. What he said is he didn’t find documentary evidence of bias, which means he didn’t find letterhead somewhere with 'DoJ' on top of it, saying, 'Let’s take out Trump.' But he actually addresses the fact that there was bias in his report, at least from a personal perspective, among the texts that you just noted. And then look, he also laid out for the American people to see, you know, dozens upon dozens of ways in which the FBI abused and manipulated the FISA court. I think what he was trying to do is say, 'People, here is the evidence, you make your own judgment.' And anyone with a brain who looks at this knows that of course there was bias because all of those errors go one direction."
