In mid-summer a wave of panic and despair began to wash over key rank-and-file FBI agents who were doggedly working the Hillary Clinton investigations. Agents reluctantly pondered a potential, brutal reality that was creeping into the fabric of the high-profile case. What if their collective work wasn’t meant to bring this case to a grand jury for indictments and justice? What if they themselves, FBI agents sworn to uphold the law, were being used as intelligence pawns by superiors and higher powers to actually shield Clinton and her inner circle from ever seeing a pair of handcuffs and a jail cell?
“I got a pit in my stomach,” a FBI insider said. “That empty, sinking feeling you get in your gut. I thought we may have unknowingly been parties to this entire mess. It’s a blow to the ego. We’re supposed to see these things coming.”
Agents, along with the country, had just absorbed the troubling optics of Attorney General Loretta Lynch meeting privately with the husband of the investigation’s primary target on a jet tarmac just days earlier. And then hours after that debacle, the FBI announced Hillary would venture to its headquarters, in a matter of hours, to finally answer the bureau’s lingering questions about how she handled classified and top secret emails as secretary of state.
We say Clinton investigations, plural, because there were really two parallel inquiries that unfolded during the year-long FBI probe. There was the public email and home server investigation but agents were also building a pay-for-play criminal case involving Clinton, the Clinton Foundation and her husband, former President Bill Clinton. And that case was growing serious wings.

Agents are employed in a manner so no one has a clear operational perspective. As soon as anyone has enough information to start formulating questions, they are reassigned to another job. From an objective perspective, C2 under this regime is compartmentalized in a way never before seen. If there were any true patriots left, it would provide an excellent study in counterespionage.
While I’m sympathetic to the anger directed toward the FBI, no individual, or group of individuals, could ever hope to stand against the naked power of the executive branch. People need to remember that the Constitution provides only one remedy for criminal activities perpetrated by the executive branch. Congress is charged with this responsibility for this exact reason.
When Congress is also corrupt, there is only one Constitutional recourse left. Talk is cheap, and Internet agitation is even cheaper, but who wants to be the first to suggest that action?
Once trustworthy, the FBI under Comey is a nest of corruption.
Bfl
Comey has destroyed whatever confidence one may have ever had in the fbi.
It is now little more than obammy’s goon squad .
Criminal?
RICO?
You betcha
Yeah, sure.
Just like we were led to believe if there was a whitewash, agents would walk.
Hell, even Comey was rumored to.
Course we find him just another butt boy.
And thus far not a peep from aby, good agent
A once great and proud agency turned in to shit.
Great job Comey ya pos.
Amen!
Years ago, she had files on the FBI. She likely blackmailed some of those old timers who are still around. That’s who needs to be investigated. The newer agents are only following orders.
Bump.
“I am hoping the loyal FBI agents are waiting until Trump gets into office....”
What, exactly, would FBI agents such as these be loyal to?
Certainly not Justice. Certainly not Truth. Certainly not America.
No, they are loyal to their paychecks and pensions.
I agree. But in this election where a handful of votes make a difference in some key spots every little bit of information that could turn an independat or dim-whose-head's-been-in-the-sand is a good thing.
The perfect answer to all things.
Comey turned out to be political afterall
Another apologia for cowards who shirk their oath to the Constitution and to their country.
I’m still waiting for all these loyal agents to make an appearance. They were supposed to resign enmass if they didn’t recommend indictment against Hillary, still waiting...
I am more and more convinced that the bureaucracy is just as a protected class as the politicians and they black mail each other and or CYA one another. Until I see other wise I consider the FBI, NSA, DOJ, IRS, to some extent DOD etc... compromised entities and they do not have the countries interest at heart, they have their own.
All your vapid bluster doesn’t change the fact that Congress is the only Constitutional authority in these matters.
Only cowards encourage others to place themselves in the enemies’ sights; leaders’ voices resonate from the other side of the barricade.
Like I said, another apologia for sellouts and cowards. They shirked their duties to the Constitution and country.
The party of fixing and fog at full speed.
