Given the foregoing, and viewing the facts in a light most favorable to the Crossfire
Hurricane investigators, it seems highly likely that, at a minimum, confirmation bias played a
significant role in the FBI's acceptance of extraordinarily serious allegations derived from
uncorroborated information that had not been subjected to the typical exacting analysis employed
by the FBI and other members of the Intelligence Community. In short, it is the Office's
assessment that the FBI discounted or willfully ignored material information that did not support
the narrative of a collusive relationship between Trump and Russia. Similarly, the FBI
Inspection Division Report says that the investigators "repeatedly ignore[ d] or explain[ ed] away
evidence contrary to the theory the Trump campaign ... had conspired with Russia .... It
appeared that ... there was a pattern of assuming nefarious intent."

Nothing like Guilty until Proven innocent!
