Column today from a former FBI agent, awarded the National Intelligence Medal of Achievement (NIMA). Goes into a little detail on a couple of Comey issues.

Comey's Game

http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2017/06/comeys_game.html

Excerpts:

It is very strange, but it seems almost everything in recent American political history translates out to the FBI not functioning as it should.  While certainly this is because of a type of political correctness, it is proximately caused by the conscious or unconscious bias of its former director, James Comey, and his being in denial of that bias.

The criminal investigation of Mrs. Clinton for violation of the espionage statute was sabotaged by Obama’s Justice Department.  No subpoenas were issued.  (The FBI cannot issue grand jury subpoenas; only the Justice Department can.)  This is completely not normal; in such a case the FBI cannot work as it should.

The non-issuance of subpoenas by the Justice Department cannot have merely happened, as if by some freak of nature.  It is an execrable act that fairly can be said to constitute sabotage, and indeed if anything in recent months has constituted obstruction of justice, this is it.  Largely, but not solely, because of this, the FBI’s investigation was a sham, unprecedentedly fake, truncated, and weird.

The whole investigation stunk.  The FBI worked with the DOJ to issue immunity agreements for people who were not under suspicion for any crimes, and at least one who still refused to testify. 

Under the law, once immunity is granted, testimony is compulsory under threat of being charged with contempt.  You can't invoke the 5th to avoid answering questions which fall within the scope of the immunity agreement.

So far, I've not heard of that IT guy going to jail for contempt.  Why not?

Immunity agreements were also given to 2 people on Clinton's staff who never testified against her.  That prevented the FBI from looking into the circumstances surrounding the use of BleachBit to destroy the former secretary of state's emails.

It was as if the FBI was purposely erecting legal "walls" around the principle players before any investigating could take place.

Cheryl Mills was granted partial immunity in the case, yet was allowed to continue acting as Clinton's lawyer, even to the degree she accompanied Clinton to the infamous FBI interview, where Clinton wasn't placed under oath, nothing was video taped, and Comey didn't bother to attend.  How can someone be such an integral part of the activities being investigate yet still be allowed to work with the target of the investigation in a capacity that allows her to claim client confidentiality?   

At this stage, the only thing I believe can be answered is:  I wonder what kind of refreshments were served at Clinton's interview?

This whole thing makes me feel like it is nothing but a witch hunt to keep our attention towards Trump instead of paying attention to the real crimes that were committed by the Obama Administration including Comey. I think he is as much a part of the corruption as BHO, HRC, LL, etc. It is designed to keep Trump from directing his attention to the previous administration and to get rid of him in hopes of keeping any real criminal investigation away from being investigated. I believe this is what we are not seeing or being told. JMHO

This really does not pass the smell test for me.

I thought about that. Though what's to stop other forces (Republicans, whoever) from using this to dig up more stuff on HRC, Holder, Obama, etc?  That's really what I am hoping for. Not holding my breath, but still hoping. I still do think part of why some of that was swept under the rug is that the surface issue goes pretty wide.

Someone on NPR said this morning, it's not about Liberal or Conservative, it's haves and have nots. To me, that is what clearing the swamp meant. Is Trump part of the haves? Maybe so, but seems like many of the haves are fighting very hard against Trump.

I think you are correct.

I recall publication of an email from PIAPS advising her circle to the tune of: "If this ****** wins, we are all going to hang"

Seems failrly clear the hag was worried about her and Obozo's actions being looked into by an unfriendly administration.

The revelations of Lynch subverting the FBI is just the tip of the iceberg.

A few paragraphs from an articletoday on this topic:

http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2017/06/trumphatred_and_the_death_fears_of_the_boomer_left.html

Comey's and Mueller's attack on POTUS are an obvious effort to distract and cover up the flagrant jihadist infiltration of the Obama years.  If Robert Mueller were a patriot, he would be going after Comey, Brennan, and Clapper, plus Huma and Valerie Jarrett.  Hell, he would go after Hillary or BHO.  Guess what: Mueller is in cahoots with the Three Stooges.
* * * * *
The media are filled with influence agents who just happen to have Arab names like "Shaheed" (one who conducts Jihad) and "El Wahhab" (a member of the warmongering Wahhabi tribe).

Of course, we are just as stupid and feckless – especially the Three Stooges, Jim Comey (ex-FBI), Jim Clapper (ex-DNI), and John O. Brennan (ex-CIA).

The media lynch mobs are going after the president of the United States today for exactly the same reason they went after Richard M. Nixon.  Nixon exposed Stalinist infiltrators in the U.S. guvmint, especially the State Department.

Ben Bradlee (ex-CIA) and Mark Felt (FBI) plotted to leak Nixon to death, and so they did.
* * * * *
Today the newsies are trying to tell us the "Deep State" doesn't exist. Well, today you can see the worst of them on your computer screen.  They are the folks testifying before Congress, and their knives are still out to kill the duly elected POTUS.  That's what the latest special counsel is supposed to do.

In the real world, jihad is waged by brainwashed moral monsters who constantly try to infiltrate, sabotage, suborn, undermine, and conquer the Organs of Propaganda, including the New York Times and the Washington Post.

Jihad is obviously been very successful at infiltration.
* * * * *
If the FBI and CIA were actually doing their jobs, rather than plotting against POTUS, they would have arrested the Awans years ago, along with Debbie, Huma, and all the other jihad infiltrators into the U.S. guvmint.  You could add half of Obama's appointments, especially Valerie Jarrett, the Iranian indoctrinee who set up the nuclear surrender to the mullahs.

Right now it looks as though the bad guys are going to win.

But we've seen this one before.

He's no longer the FBI director and has no duty to protect any investigations.

Really? So as long as you are no longer employed by the government then you can talk about something that might be classified?

Did I say classified? 

Stop with the strawman arguments. 

If today's headlines are a distraction away from Obama and directed toward Trump, then why doesn't the GOP controlled Congress direct our attention away from Trump and toward Obama or is this going on and the MSM is refusing to report it?

The establishment Republicans in Congress are just as afraid of Trump as the Democrats are. 

They suffered 8 years of Obama, and still don't have good repeal plan for getting rid of Obamacare.

Think of Trump as an Independent.  He's not been a registered Republican for very long.  He just used the Republican Party affiliation to win the election.

If Trump wanted to he could direct the FBI to investigate Obama or Clinton but he isn't (not publicly) so I don't think this is a distraction attempt.

How do you know it isn't classified, or some form of a similar status?  You assume too much.

I think this may be the main reason why the GOP are circling the wagons and disassociating from Trump before the 2018 campaign.

Or the Dems get Congress back, Trump is impeached, something happens to Pence, and Pelosi becomes President. This is the nightmare situation that makes me angry every time Trump says something stupid.

         

Comey makes an in-person appearance at the New York Times. Wonder what he talked about... probably just the grandchildren...
