IG 2.0 could be even worse for FBI as feds brace for Trump-spying probe
Fox News ^ | June 15, 2018 | Alex Pappas

The country is still digesting Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s scathing report on the FBI and the DOJ’s handling of the Hillary Clinton email investigation, but more bombshells could be looming from the same team of investigators.

Horowitz, a former federal prosecutor, announced in March that he is probing allegations of government surveillance abuse, in light of memos released on Capitol Hill about FBI and DOJ efforts to obtain FISA warrants to surveil Trump campaign adviser Carter Page as part of its Russia investigation.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions has also said U.S. Attorney John Huber is investigating claims of FBI and DOJ misconduct related to these actions, noting that Huber would be “conducting his work from outside the Washington D.C. area and “in cooperation” with Horowitz.

Not much else is known about Horowitz’s review, though in March, the inspector general’s office said it “will consider including other issues that may arise during the course of the review” if circumstances warrant. The Clinton review took about 18 months.

Little comment that I think you should see on the “James Gnomey” photo, because I’ve seen that sort of thing before (from the good and legal side). The Mob has sent messages very much like that.

It’s somewhat of a trademark. It’s an expression of vanity, and it is intended to intimidate.

We don’t need to learn so much as to vote in the midterm elections this year. Congress has more than enough to impeach and convict corrupt officers of the federal government.

But we do need to make sure that Congress is majority Republican. And no noise from the peanut gallery. Enough of the worst anti-Trump characters are leaving office anyway, and the rest have fallen in line.

So vote, and push Congress to do its job.

I doubt anything really comes from any of it, but at least the FBI was exposed as having employees that acted less than honorably. The vast majority of the 35,000 employees the FBI deigns to tell us about are no doubt very honorable and invariably act with the best intentions in order to protect the ideals of the USA. You can tell by how they proclaim it to everyone constantly. Yup.

Nonsense.

We cannot wait for a another toothless report.

We need a Grand Jury NOW.

Yeah, because the IG engenders so much confidence.

He cleared Holder. He’s cleared Hillary. He let Strzok, Comey, and Yates off the hook.

About 5 people should be under indictment, the counter says zero.

The Truth is the FBI is a far left organization, and the Leaders are unaccountable. Swampy Sessions and Swamprat Rod only want Trump.

Another 500 pages of documented criminal activity, abuse of power, bias and election rigging with a conclusion that none of it really matters?

I was about to say the overuse of the word "bombshell" on this forum long exceeded tiring.

Which is why the party is over.

Or not.

Trump needs to act or go home.

He’s apparently not got the stones to decimate DOMESTIC ENEMY.
