Bullshlt. The first week you go in and view ALL relevant docs. You fire every dishonest agent and you disclose every unlawful act.scottimus said:It is painfully obvious that Wray is trying to salvage a sinking, burning ship with a mutiny on one side and foot soldiers of a previous captain on the other.. The sails are torn, the hull is breached, and leaks are everywhere. Either he joins the original crew or sinks the ship, in my opinion.,,,and lets everyone deal with the sharks.etcetera said:Still waiting for an answer: What is it you think Wray has done that is cause for termination?RoscoePColtrane said:FriscoKid said:RoscoePColtrane said:

The Jan. 24 interview, McCabe had contacted Flynn by phone directly at the White House. White House officials had spent the earlier part of the week with the FBI overseeing training and security measures associated with their new roles so it was no surprise to Flynn that McCabe had called, McCabe told Flynn "some agents were heading over (to the White House) but Flynn thought it was part of the routine work the FBI had been doing and said they would be cleared at the gate", It wasn't until after they were already in his office that he realized he was being formally interviewed. He didn't have an attorney with him and that's a problem. Strzok was a complete ambush, and it was deliberate. And it didn't matter what the hell he said in that interview, Strzok was going to frame it the way he wanted. They knew Flynn was vulnerable because of his work with Turkey through a third party. He had been under surveillance for months and was set up from the beginning.drcrinum said:

A thread about General Flynn. Includes some timelines and comments. I've posted the conclusion. The author of this thread personally communicates with General Flynn.
Quote:
Yates said she began their meeting by laying out the media accounts and media statements made by Vice President Mike Pence and other high-ranking White House officials about General Flynn's activity "that we knew not to be the truth."
According to Sally Yates testimony, she and Bill Priestap reportedly presented all the information to McGahn so the White House could take action that they deemed appropriate. When asked by McGahn if Flynn should be fired, Yates answered, "that really wasn't our call."
Yates also said her decision to notify the White House counsel had been discussed "at great length." According to her testimony: "Certainly leading up to our notification on the 26th, it was a topic of a whole lot of discussion in DOJ and with other members of the intel community."
Quote:
Specifically, according to Yates, one of the questions McGahn asked Yates was, "Why does it matter to DOJ if one White House official lies to another?" She explained that it "was a whole lot more than that," and reviewed the same issues outlined the prior day.
McGahn expressed his concern that taking action might interfere with the FBI investigation of Flynn, and Yates said it wouldn't. "It wouldn't really be fair of us to tell you this and then expect you to sit on your hands," Yates had told McGahn.
McGahn asked if he could look at the underlying evidence of Flynn's conduct, and she said they would work with the FBI over the weekend and "get back with him on Monday morning."
That's some interview. DiGenova seems to really know what's happening. Lots of drops. Schiff Memo must be redacted because there is an active investigation going on regarding the FISA warrant on Page. Priestap & others cooperating. A whole bunch of investigations going on. Expects the OIG Report in 2-3 weeks at best, possibly longer since it must be vetted by CIA/NSA first. When OIG report is released, Schiif will be humiliated and revealed to be a dirty scumbag.VaultingChemist said:
Interesting interview with Joe di Genova. He claims there are 24 different leak investigations currently being conducted by the FBI. He also says that Priestap is cooperating with the IG.

Accepting any of these obfuscations would be a grave mistake.
Despite a nonstop media assault on Trump's administration, Representative Devin Nunes, and the congressional investigative committees, more than 50 percent of the public already believes that the Trump campaign was illegally surveilled and smeared through the confluence of the Clinton campaign, the Obama administration, and the FBI.
Voters would only grow more cynical if some Americans were allowed to abuse constitutionally protected civil liberties, and to lie to the Congress, the FBI, and the courts, while the less connected others go to jail for much less. Without a judicial accounting, it will be impossible to clean up the hierarchies of the FBI and the DOJ.
Indeed, absent accountability and punishment, the new modus operandi would be for any lame- duck incumbent administration to use federal agencies to enhance the campaign of its own party's nominee. It would be only logical to conclude that criminal acts used to help a successor would be forgotten or rewarded under the victor's tenure.
What is needed?
Attorney General Sessions must find muscular, ambitious, and combative prosecutors (preferably from outside Washington, D.C., and preferably existing federal attorneys), direct them to call a Grand Jury, and begin collating information from congressional investigations to get to the bottom of what is likely one of gravest scandals in post-war American history: the effort to use the federal government to thwart the candidacy of an unpopular presidential candidate and then to smear and ruin his early tenure as president.
Only another prosecutorial investigation, one way or another, will lead to resolution, take the entire mess out of the partisan arena, and keep the anemic Mueller investigation honest with the full knowledge that if its own investigators have violated laws or used tainted evidence or in the past obstructed justice, then they too will be held to account.
Quote:
The FISA-gate, Clinton emails, and Uranium One scandals are sort of reaching a consensus. Many things quite wrong and illegal were done by both Hillary Clinton and her entourage and members of the Obama agencies and administration both the acts themselves and the cover-ups and omissions that ensued.
Remember, in the FISA-gate scandal such likely widespread criminal behavior was predicated on two premises: 1) certainty of an easy Clinton victory, after which the miscreants would be not only excused but probably rewarded for their zeal; 2) progressive hubris in which our supposedly moral betters felt it their right, indeed their duty, to use unethical and even unlawful means for the "greater good" to achieve their self-described moral ends of stopping the crude and reactionary Trump.
The wrongdoing probably includes attempting to warp a U.S. election, Russian collusion, repeatedly misleading and lying before the FISA courts, improperly surveilling American citizens, unmasking the names of citizens swept up in unlawful surveillance and then illegally leaking them to the press, disseminating and authenticating opposition smears during a political campaign, lying under oath to Congress, obstructing ongoing investigations, using federal funds to purchase ad hominem gossip against a presidential candidate, blatant conflicts of interests, weaponizing federal investigations, trafficking in and leaking classified information . . . The list goes on and on.
The State Department is now involved. Apparently anyone who was a former Clinton smear artist can pass fantasies to a sympathetic or known political appointee at State. And if the "dossier" fits the proper narrative and shared agenda, it gains credence enough to ensure that it is passed up to senior State officials and on to the FBI. Perhaps a private citizen with a grudge against a rival should try that as well.
These scandals will grow even greater before various congressional investigations expire.
Easy there.scottimus said:
I hope they turn this into the biggest **** show in the history of Criminal proceedings. Forget OJ...I'll give them Russia for the first year of Trump's of Presidency, it was a bold strategy, Cotton. Theses next 7 better leave a mark on these people like that of which American politics has never seen....when I think of the arguments I've had liberal mouthpieces screaming Russia, Russia!... it worked perfectly from a media campaign...and now it's over.
