USA – The FBI lacked “actual evidence” to investigate Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and relied too heavily on tips provided by Trump’s political opponents to fuel the probe.

That according to U.S. Special Counsel John Durham concluded in a report.

The report marks the end of a four-year probe launched in may 2019 when then-Attorney General William Barr appointed Durham, a veteran prosecutor, to probe potential missteps by the FBI.

In his new 306-page report, Durham accused the bureau of treating the 2016 Trump probe differently from other politically sensitive investigations, including several involving Trump’s democratic rival Hillary Clinton.
