They're 'lawyering up'! John Durham has reportedly 'requested to talk to CIA analysts involved in the intelligence assessment of Russia's activities' (who's next?)

The Justice Department’s investigation into the origins of the Russia probe that was taking place when Barack Obama was president is ongoing, and some current and/or former intelligence community officials are reportedly lawyering up:

A review launched by AG William Barr into the origins of the Russia investigation has expanded significantly amid concerns about whether the probe has any legal or factual basis. @KenDilanianNBC @Tom_Winter @JuliaEAinsley https://t.co/A00qZoPC0S

First off, how about that media spin?

Funny, I don't recall @NBCInvestigates expressing concerns about the legal or factual basis for Mueller's Russia investigation. I wonder what's different? https://t.co/LMJ20UblWT

The difference is, of course, who the investigation is focusing on:

U.S. Attorney John Durham has "requested to talk to CIA analysts involved in the intelligence assessment of Russia's activities, prompting some of them to hire lawyers"https://t.co/5RgzyUVIMB

AG Barr expands probe.

"Durham has also requested to talk to CIA analysts involved in the intelligence assessment of Russia’s activities, prompting some of them to hire lawyers"

Not a good sign when CIA analysts have to hire lawyers. https://t.co/5GogvPSmwJ via @nbcnews

There might be a lot more “lawyering up” going on in the near future.

Where will this lead next? One thing’s for sure: The mainstream media will do its best to run cover for the Democrats, and NBC News showed how.
