Report on Matters Related to Intelligence Activities and Investigations Arising Out of the 2016 Presidential Campaigns - durhamreport.pdf

An "Observation" found on page 292:
In July 2016, the FBI received the most damaging of the Steele Reports but, mysteriously and unfortunately, these reports do not appear to have made their way to the Counterintelligence Division for analysis until after mid-September. Later in July, Australia provided the information from Papadopoulos to U.S. authorities. The FBI then appears to have formulated a hypothesis that the Trump campaign, or someone associated with it, was working with the Russians. Neither the Crossfire Hurricane Opening EC nor those responsible for the investigation in the Counterintelligence Division or upper management, however, appear to have recognized the crucial need to analyze and then assess the actual ambiguities in Papadopoulos's statements to the Australian diplomats. Instead, the FBI immediately opened a full investigation, an investigation that clearly had the ability to affect an approaching presidential election.
