    The FBI Is in Crisis. It's Worse Than You Think

    From Time magazine not known for any right wing bias. For those that are not following this or only listening to the left wing MSM so do not believe it exists, here is a renown magazine shining some light on it.

    It's beyond pathetic the way conservative trash the men and women who serve at the FBI because of their blind partisan support for the "utterly amoral," "pathological liar" "fraudster," "narcissist" "phony" "dangerous national security risk" "con man" "national embarrassment". And that's just what Republicans and conservatives have called him.

    Well he is a Democrat . So the chances are 99.7% that yes he does. That's what they do.

    Not sure what that has to do with systemic wrongdoing in the FBI. Cognitive dissonance?

    It didn't have anything to do with your RW propaganda claims. It was about donald and the "excellent people" he's appointed.

    I certainly agree that Comey broke protocol when he criticized Clinton and then announced he was re-opening the investigation less than two weeks before the election.

    In all likelihood, putting donald in office.

    Republican Comey was no friend of Clinton's.

    There is much more to it than that. Remember how your side defended McCabe?

    The OIG is coming out with all of this which is why McCabe got fired. The FBI has some serious problems as outlined but hey, as long as the democrat industrial media complex doesn't report on it, it doesn't exist, until now. Time is breaking the ice.

    Yeah, the truths about Clinton that were exposed were pretty damning.

    The truth wasn't damning at all. It was the declaration that he was re-opening the investigation into her emails.

    The truth is the new emails didn't show anything and they reclosed the investigation.

    But the truth came to late for Clinton.

    The truth about why Comey did that is still something you don't know but it is also damning of the FBI and DOJ leadership under Obama.

    So let's review some of the results of the OIG preliminary investigation. The full investigation has taken a long time because it is very complex and the misconduct staggering but the full review will be released to the public soon.

    Director James Comey (fired), Deputy Director Andrew McCabe (fired), FBI Legal Counsel James Baker (removed – status unknown); FBI investigative Agent Peter Strzok (demoted, reassigned); DOJ special counsel to McCabe, Lisa Page, (removed, reassigned); and DOJ Deputy AAG Bruce Ohr (demoted, twice).

    Additionally other officials resigned immediately after the preliminary IG findings were made public: FBI Communications Director Mike Kortan (quit); Director Comey Chief-of-Staff, Jim Rybicki (quit); DOJ-NSD DAAG Mary McCord (quit); DOJ Deputy AAG David Laufman (quit).

    The head of the FBI has no business allowing politicians or politics to have any weight whatsoever in anything having to do with the FBI’s investigations. Comey failed us all - no matter whose side you’re on.

    Wow, an almost complete description of Hitlerly (not complete because loser and not President wasn't mentioned) trying to be passed off onto another like the Russia thing.

    But you seem to have no problem wanting the plug pulled on the actual criminals. You're probably not even happy now that the "King" has joined the war criminal club.

    I think that is actually just an excuse. I doubt seriously that the folks who voted against Hillary were all that moved by Comey. Sure, it's convenient to perhaps believe it, but the simple reality is that ms Clinton herself is the cause of her own unemployment, and always has been.

    Think about this. While she was Sec State, she evidently objected to a statement that was required of her that expressed some position that effectively would have seen a CIA officer released from Iranian custody. And while this was being brokered by Mueller et al in the FBI, (who, btw, recruited this snazzy Russian Oligarch to help out) she opted to fuss about the statement, and the guy has NEVER BEEN SEEN SINCE.

    Is that really the woman that you would have voted for? Do you suppose that information like that wouldn't have been used against her in office? I mean, the playbook is right there on TV. Right?

    So, yes, Comey isn't anyone's friend. He's his own self absorbed version of individual. His "intervention" then in the election probably didn't have real impact, but as an act, wasn't he then, by his own admission, attempting to influence an election? Doesn't that deserve it's own prosecution?

    Help me here, so truth is not the content of the emails but that somebody exposed them?

    But you are mistaken about truth and the Clinton's, especially Hitlerly. It has no concept of truth but when it does catch up with it, a gallows on the White House lawn should be appropriate.

    Anything after that was entering the world of falsehoods. As I go back and examine what is supposed to pass for government, no where in Article I, Section 8 does it speak of this power. Actually the same could be said for the whole department of (mis) justice. This whole thing is nothing more than an elitist protection scheme, whomever has power has protection while the opposing side shall be crushed under the wheels of political progress.
