DOJ: Key FBI Brass Flip on McCabe & Comey; High-Level Officials Testify Against Fired FBI Chiefs
TRUEPUNDIT ^ | 4/25/2018 | Investigative Bureau

Posted on 04/25/2018 10:55:22 PM PDT by bitt

The inner circle of James Comey and Andrew McCabe on the 7th Floor of FBI HQ has flipped, according to high level Justice Department officials.

The once-loyal cabal of FBI brass and leaders who reigned during the FBI tenures of Comey and McCabe have been testifying against their former bosses, DOJ sources confirm.

For now at least that cooperation involves cooperation with the Inspector General. Soon, that would likely extend to grand juries, according to sources.

In law enforcement circles, these players are referred to as Rats, cops who implicate other cops to save their jobs and pensions. So who is ratting on Comey and McCabe and cooperating with the proceedings against each?

FBI Counterintelligence Head Bill Priestap is the biggest fish, federal law enforcement sources said. And he is a key player here. His cooperation spells trouble for McCabe and likely Comey too.

“Last guy I would have thought would cooperate is cooperating,” one high-ranking Justice official said about Priestap. “He knows about everything the IG is looking at because he was involved in it all.”

The Justice official called Priestap’s cooperation “devastating” especially to McCabe. The source would not elaborate. McCabe realized this when he banked over $500K on a GoFundMe campaign for upcoming legal fees.

Priestap was Peter Strzok’s boss and Priestap answered directly to McCabe.

Strzok is now cooperating with the Inspector General as well as Lisa Page, the FBI lawyer and former right-hand associate of McCabe. She too is talking along with Strzok, sources confirm.

It would appear that the FBI’s house — built by Comey and McCabe — is coming down, one brick at a time. But flipping Priestap takes out a cornerstone, no doubt.

And not soon enough.

I think its time for a pre dawn no knock warrant party at comey’s (supposed)lawyer who leaked memos. Do it up Mueller style.

More likely than not, this is just more wishful thinking clickbait. I don’t think Milquetoast Sessions has the means or the mettle to do anything about this bunch.

I hope this is real. FBI insiders who know who did what over the past few years could prove to be some of the most credible and valuable sources of information.

Actually the amount of cooperation that is being offered is not factual but presumed by innuendo. Only time will tell if there is cooperation or stonewalling going on. It could be “I don’t have to tell them everything” instead of “I have nothing to hide”. The mere fact they are talking - how can they avoid talking - tells very little.

I think the substantial holes in the facts reported demonstrate the article is more click bait than informative.
