IG Horowitz: FBI Withholding Names of Anti-Trump Agents From Public
Gateway Pundit ^ | June 19, 2018 | Cristina Laila

Posted on 06/19/2018 1:42:53 PM PDT by Proud White Trump Supporter

Inspector General Michael Horowitz revealed on Tuesday in a joint hearing with the House Oversight and House Judiciary Committees the FBI is refusing to allow Trump-hating agents to be named publicly.

Horowitz said the FBI is withholding the names from the public “because they work on counterintelligence.”

“So the FBI does not want their names released?” Rep Ted Poe (R-TX) asked Horowitz.

“Correct,” Horowitz replied.

SMUG! That’s it, the reason why I cannot stand to look at that jerk - it’s his smug puss. His demeanor is completely off-putting to me.

I agree he does look smug - and does not inspire confidence in himself or the FBI.

If these agents exhibit Trump-hate, they should be fired.

He wasn’t very smug when Gowdy was ripping him a new one.

Temporary lapse. He’ll recover.

Firing will be the least of their worries as this unfolds.

There apparently is some advantage for investigators/prosecutors to have them still working. It’s why Strzok and Page haven’t been pushed out. Those two in particular have probably been flipped.

They need to open a huge office in Nome, AK and send them all there.

"....How Obama accomplished it has been kept under wraps, no one seems to know...."

I can't tell whether you said that tongue-in-cheek, sarcastically or straight faced. Obama basically did what he wanted for eight years by gutting the agencies and putting in his people, who would in turn hire like-minded liberal ideologues to fill the bureaucracies with the same.

Once these people are entrenched, they are de facto extensions of the democRAT party.

And he did this under cover of darkness, provided to him conveniently by the "we're-in-love-with-Obama", partisan media.

The reason no one seems to know how he committed this transformation of the federal bureaucracy into an incubator to spread the liberal ideology throughout government, is because the media didn't report on any of it.

Wray's intellectual forthcoming yesterday:

Grassley:
In the FBI's response to the Inspector General's report, the FBI said "there is no indication that any classified material ever transited Mr. Comey, Mr. Page's or Mr. Strzok's personal devices or accounts." But I thought neither the FBI nor the Inspector General actually looked at their personal devices. I sent a letter to you, Director Wray, this morning on this topic, but I wanted to ask you, how can the FBI conclude no classified material was on their personal devices if you didn't even look at their devices?

Wray: Mr. Chairman, first as to your letter, I haven't obviously seen your letter of today but I'll be happy to take a look at it and make sure we're being responsive to you on that.

On the second part of your question and the words in our response to the Inspector General's report, I don't think we're attempting to characterize some independent investigation of our own but rather to refer to the language in the Inspector General's report and to clarify that the findings that we're reacting to did not themselves identify any passage of classified information.

The art predication is all about scope, which is what Bill Clinton meant to say about the meaning of is. If you can't hide the evidence, you can skirt it.

Is it true that the wife of Horowitz works for CNN? Maybe she has the names of the so called counterintelligence agents.

This whole thing is starting to smell.

“straight faced” - how he was able to take such complete control of the FBI, Defense Department and other agencies known as well disciplined and apolitical in the administration of their duties, remains a mystery to me.

It reminds me of Stalin’s day in Russia when every military and civilian agency was under the watchful eye of a political commissar.

Technically Hoover came from the ranks. He dates back to the day the FBI was just the BI - Bureau of Investigation (Director Stanley Finch). The Mann Act was the impetus for its creation.

Obama knew to change the leadership in the agencies with people who would do his bidding and keep their mouths shut.

Remember, he fired a whole bunch of military generals and decimated their ranks because they wouldn't go along with his push to change the military into a social diversity experiment. He wanted women, gays, transgendered in the ranks along side combat-ready troops, just to show he was being "inclusive".

Then with a "look-the-other-way" and politically agreeable media, he pretty much acted like a communist dictator with commissars and not cabinet members.

Remember his parents and all of his mentors were self-proclaimed communists. This is what he learned growing up. And his dad was an anti-imperialist and hated Britain. Barack looked at America as an imperialist nation the same way and hated America. There was a reason for his groveling, bowing apology tour around the world when he was first elected. Got to show his homies around the world that he hated America the same as they did.

When Obama said he was going to fundamentally change America, I believe this was what he was referring to.

They should all be arrested for treason. It’s even worse because they did it to help the biggest piece of shit in the history of America, Hillary Clinton. They should all swing from ropes with their madame.

"They can appeal, but after 30 days, they will be sitting on the outside making their appeal."

All fine and good...BUT, with the endless support of the criminals that call themselves the "union", even if the appeal lasts several years, the perp will usually get get the job back with back pay and credit for unused sick time and leave time.

Result: just another theft of the taxpayers money!

Far more economical to follow jospehm20's advice: "They need to open a huge office in Nome, AK and send them all there."
