Disgraced FusionGPS Accomplice Bruce Ohr Resigns From the Justice Department -- Just As He's About to be Fired, Following a Disciplinary Review

He was the guy who illegally back-channeled FusionGPS Russian-agent-sourced bullshit to the FBI, and then lied about that to investigators.

Bruce Ohr, a longtime Justice Department veteran who was harshly criticized by the DOJ's watchdog for concealing his discussions with British ex-spy Christopher Steele from his superiors during the Trump-Russia investigation, resigned last month ahead of an impending disciplinary review decision.

"Bruce Ohr retired from the Department of Justice on September 30, 2020. As such, he is no longer an employee of the Department," DOJ spokesperson Kerri Kupec told the Washington Examiner on Wednesday. "Mr. Ohr retired after his counsel was informed that a final decision on a disciplinary review being conducted by senior career officials was imminent."

Catherine Herridge of CBS News had tweeted Wednesday that "a person familiar with the matter tells CBS News that... he resigned the day before he was going to be terminated by DOJ over his conduct cited in IG Horowitz report."

...


"Despite having been closed for cause, the Crossfire Hurricane team continued to obtain information from Steele through Ohr, who met with the FBI on 13 occasions to pass along information he had been provided by Steele," DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz said in a December report.

...

One of Horowitz's nine major recommendations was aimed squarely at Ohr, noting that he made "consequential errors in judgment" by not telling his superiors what he had been up to. Horowitz also said Ohr showed "a lapse in judgment" by not availing himself of the DOJ's ethics procedures when his wife worked as a Trump-Russia contractor for Fusion GPS.


"The Department's Office of Professional Responsibility should review our findings related to the conduct of Department attorney Bruce Ohr for any action it deems appropriate," Horowitz said last year. "Ohr's current supervisors in [the DOJ's criminal division] should also review our findings related to Ohr's performance for any action they deem appropriate."

Gee, I wonder if he'll just immediately start working for the Democrat-Shadow Government Complex, like all other criminal government officials wind up doing.


The Democrat Party is like the mafia -- if one of its soldiers goes down, they immediately find a no-show job for him in one of their many shell companies.

Recall that Hillary Clinton's defender Mike Morrell -- who assisted in her lie that the "Youtube filmmaker" was the cause of the Benghazi riots -- immediately went to work for the Clinton-connected "Beacon Global Strategies" after he resigned from the CIA.
