FBI Director Robert Mueller's job may be in jeopardy. Word is out the FBI is investigating Sacramento Mayor and former NBA Star Kevin Johnson for his dealings with the St. HOPE Academy and AmeriCorp.

That is the same AmeriCorp who had Gerald Walpin as its inspector general for AmeriCorps. And it is the same Kevin Jonson who is a friend of the President. Mr. Walpin's investigation of Johnson is what got him fired.

Because he was investigating the president's friend, Walpin, whose position as an inspector general is supposed to be protected from political appointees and the White House, was fired.

So the FBI “investigates”, everything becomes the result af a “senile old man’s ranting”, and it apears on Snopes as an urban legend...

So will the FBI agents involved be declared “confused” and “incoherent” by Obama?

I said it yesterday before I knew KJ and Bambi were friends, that Obama was either protecting someone or opening up a job. Either way its corruption.

OBAMA YOU ARE CORRUPT

IMPEACH!

How about investigating St. Hope and Americorps as well since the IG was fired just in advance of Queen Michelle's former chief of staff taking an advisory position at St. Hope.

Didn't want anyone nosing around the flow of cash into undeserving hands?

Big Deal, anyone really think Obama’s puppet AG Eric Holder will prosecute? If Holder was doing his job the courts and jails would be full of bankers and politicians. What a joke this country has become.

The FBI has probably been ordered by Obama to whitewash the whole thing
