The bits of the trial that i caught really looked like Durham had a very poor case, presented poorly.
So poorly in fact that the defense didn't even put on a case. Danchenko's attorney relied on Durham botching things and it worked well. The judge tossed out one count and the jury acquitted on the remaining four counts.

He was arguing with his own witness and then asked the judge to treat him as a hostile witness. I don't think Orly could have done worse. But like I said Durham's last two special investigator appointments led in fails. You have to remember he was appointed to investigate the destruction of the torture tapes and then he was appointed to investigate the torture at Abu Ghraib. He came back with zero charges.

As compared with Gaetz, who has accomplished so much, starting with ...
... umm ... starting with ...
... uh ...
Well, he's not going to prison for trafficking underage girls for sex, is he? I guess that's his main accomplishment, yesno?
No wonder he gets to look down his nose at Mr. Durham.

I think Shammity's "Op Boomerang" was the correct naming.

What a shame, I didn't even realize he was the one on trial.

Very long, very good article from The New York Times. See if this link works for you. If not, I’ll post a gift link.

This nugget
Mr. Barr and Mr. Durham never disclosed that their inquiry expanded in the fall of 2019, based on a tip from Italian officials, to include a criminal investigation into suspicious financial dealings related to Mr. Trump. The specifics of the tip and how they handled the investigation remain unclear, but Mr. Durham brought no charges over it.
So they went looking for conspiracies and ended up in a criminal investigation of Donald Trump before they shut that inquiry down... sounds about right.

No link, but I saw Garland in front of Congress yesterday (or was it the day before?) saying that Durham's investigation was coming to a close. FWIW.
It wasn't what he was talking about, it was just an aside.

Won't it be a surprise to some that it's a nothing burger? (And that Obama and Clinton don't live in and spy from your microwave.)

Durham report on Trump Russia probe origins should be finished 'relatively soon,' Garland says Durham has been investigating the origins of the Trump-Russia probe since 2019
