Typical Swan - look at his tweet giving support to the Trump FBI conspiracists on old news, when the report itself says it found no evidence that the political views expressed in texts affected investigation decisions. Make sure to read the comment following the tweet too.
Swan is an idiot for thinking that anyone working in the FBI shouldn't have a private view that Trump is a dangerous idiot. Because we all know he is. Even a substantial proportion of his cult supporters really know it - they are just willing to encourage him anyway for culture war reasons, based on their absurd belief that Obama was the worst president ever. Look at Hugh Hewitt's defence of Trump's quip that he'll probably never admit he was wrong about Kim, even if he is. That's a good sign of "candor" in the perverse world of conservative politics now.
Update: to be clearer - of course, it is not a good look for an investigator to be texting that - and it is clearly right that he be taken off any role in the investigation when they were found. So, yeah, the guy's been foolish. But, ultimately, if there is no evidence of wrong doing from an investigative point of view, the view the investigator has of the suspect hardly matters.

how do you rule out laziness. He simply read what other idiots said and repeated it.
He clearly had not read the report
