"Mr. Chairman, I should be astonished, but I'm not, that the chairman of the committee would quote from the discredited Durham report," he said, "and the discredited Mr. Durham, who filed, I think, a 300-page report giving his opinions, but whose two prosecutions both resulted in acquittals and jurors saying, why did we ever even have to take this?"

So very poorly informed; and I think he is oblivious to this fact!

Who discredited the Durham report? Durham’s analysis is very accurate.

From article: "Durham brought criminal charges against just three people. He lost both cases that went to trial. In a third case, an ex-FBI lawyer named Kevin Clinesmith pleaded guilty to altering an email that was used to support a surveillance application. Clinesmith was not sentenced to any prison time."

Takeaways from the Durham report on the Trump-Russia probe

Why Durham played defense, who gave him the cold shoulder and what the report means for a key surveillance authority.

That does nothing to discredit the Durham report. Durham clearly found patterns of bias in investigators handling of evidence and when there was a lack of evidence proceeding as if the evidence existed. The Durham investigation was about the origins of the Russian Trump hoax. It dove tails nicely with the IG report.
