‘Trump Was Right’: Explosive New FBI Texts Detail Internal Furor Over Handling Of ‘Crossfire Hurricane’ Investigation
The Federalist ^ | 9/24/2020 | Sean Davis and Mollie Hemingway

Posted on 09/24/2020 2:20:10 PM PDT by CFW

Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents tasked by fired former Director James Comey to take down Donald Trump during and after the 2016 election were so concerned about the agency’s potentially illegal behavior that they purchased liability insurance to protect themselves less than two weeks before Trump was inaugurated president, previously hidden FBI text messages show.

They knew what they were doing was wrong. They purchased insurance to protect themselves financially.

Intentionally bad acts are not covered by insurance. Most states have statutory or common law prohibitions against insuring acts undertaken intentionally, with the intent to cause harm. Society simply does not permit a gross wrongdoer to profit by shifting financial responsibility for inherently bad acts to an insurance company.

Where can I get "failed coup" insurance?

Is it the "good hands" people?

Is it the "we know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two" people?

Is it Flo?

I’ve never known The Federalist to submit bogus articles. Everything these two journalists have ever written regarding the Russian collision hoax crime, has been proven correct. The article is based upon court filings.

Is that those 99% rank and file good guys that Hannity always talks about? Got liability insurance when they were working for a rogue FBI? Quite the patriots.

Good point. This article is likely bogus.

************************************

It’s not bogus. It’s a code word. Although, we don’t know what the insurance means.
I think the biggest take away is that this is now being leaked. Durham and Barr have kept this buttoned up tight, there have been almost no leaks about what they were doing. Investigations have to be sealed until they are over, and then they become public knowledge.
If they are leaking, it’s done. If we ever are going to see indictments. the time is now.

I believe that the professional liability insurance would be to defray costs of mounting a legal defense for claims against them for malpractice as attorneys.

Want to know how much that liability policy is worth now? NOTHIN’.

If these agents ever tried to collect, they’d be sued and prosecuted for insurance fraud.

This article is likely bogus.


.One text, dated Jan. 10, 2017, read: “we all went and purchased professional liability insurance.” Other texts discussed the rules for reimbursement of that insurance.

Professional liability insurance can be bought via multiple companies. You can multiple in millions in coverage. Most exempt federal employees can request the government pay a portion of the cost (I think the .gov will cover 100 per year)

Helps defend the person against lawsuits if the .gov throws you under the bus.
