The most maddening aspect of the FBI’s report is that the suspect’s photos of a nondescript baseball field - taken within days of a NYT report that Republicans practiced there (with minimal security!) - was of no significance. This is either gross, inexcusable incompetence, or willful falsification and misrepresentation.

J. Edgar rolling in his grave at the FBIs decline? LOL

He was a screaming homo. The movie J. Edgar was pretty accurate. And no, it wasn’t Oliver Stone that made the movie J. Edgar. It happened to be directed by a guy named Clint Eastwood.

Hoover was a progressive era Woodrow Wilson follower. And lots of homos are very much into the neat and tidy “clean and moral” thing. Lots of perverts are that way. They push the world to be what they wish they were. Joe Paterno, Sandusky, Hastert, Hitler and his non smoking vegan faux moralism, etc.

And his manipulative use of blackmail is a perfect blueprint for the Comey we saw. Comey = Hoover.

“When an assassin specifically attacks Republicans and ONLY Republicans, it’s fairly obvious that his intent was to injure or kill Republicans.”

That kind of critical thinking skill is not appreciated in DC.

The FBI couldn’t find intent in an otherwise empty shoebox with nothing but intentions in it.

grief, just fire everyone at the FBI and start fresh!

Agreed. The FBI is a not-funny, dangerous-to-our-freedom joke.

There are many reasons why I stay outside of DC as much as is possible.

Very disruptive but we do have plenty of other federal law enforcement agencies out there.

Roman history buff that I am, I think decimation would be a better solution. Unfortunately we couldn't do it in the proper Roman manner, ie divide them up into groups of 10, let them vote on who should be gotten rid of, then have the 9 survivors club the selected agent to death. I'm afraid the best we could get away with these days is just instituting a 10% reduction in force. Select 10% of the FBI workforce at random at random, not on the basis of job performance, rank or seniority. Just a random 10% RIF. Like in business, a layoff.

I have a feeling that if someone a year or two later suggested that the FBI was leaking too much or not having the desired impact on terrorism things would quickly take care of themselves.

“He was a screaming homo. “

There is no evidence that Hoover was a homo or a cross dresser. These accusations came from his enemies and were accepted as fact by the press to discredit him.

I was naive to it until Richard Jewell. After that, I wouldn’t piss on any of them if they were on fire

I don't think Ruby Ridge and Waco did much for their sorry a$$ reputation either.

THIS needs to be investigated. Who is the person who came to these conclusions?

Some human came to these conclusions, which are just plain bizarre. Someone is on the loose in the agency who has very poor judgement.

The media did not cover these stories while he was alive.

His Mafia paid vacations in NYC at La Costa were not openly discussed until after his death.

See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil in regards to Democrats is the FBI motto. However if you are a pervert and former Republican House of Representative speaker and you are being blackmailed, to hell with the blackmail, sent the guy to jail for money laundering and lying to an FBI officer. If you are a perverted Democrat (like Hillary or Bill) and you lie to the FBI, well that is just different, because you are above the law.

Part of the deep state. Or, more accurately, part of the Swamp.

The FBI couldn’t be worse is they were attempting to tarnish their badge. I don’t buy it. Someone is ordering this.

“The media did not cover these stories while he was alive.”

True, but I remember hearing these rumors in the 80’s and they seemed to instantly become accepted fact in the media after the Hoover biography in the 90’s.

I’m glad to see this article. I listened to some of this fool’s press conference and had to hit the remote. I thought I was losing my mind. Very reminiscent of Comey’s “Yeah, Clintoon committed crimes but she didn’t ‘intend’ too.” Bizarre is an understatement. If the DC cops hadn’t dusted this guy, the FBI would have let him off.

Trump lacks the constitutional authority to approve his own nominee.

The Constitution says that the president controls the executive branch, not Congress.
