Its all established fact.
Let me help you out a little:
COLEEN ROWLEY: Well, let me preface anything I say. I have been instructed not to talk to the media, and that’s actually surprising since the letter that I wrote initially supposedly got whistleblower protection. But I think the FBI now is in a very precarious position because of the fact that there’s threats to split the FBI up. Therefore, the hierarchy is very sensitive to saying anything or even to allowing people to talk. So, today I’m speaking only in my personal capacity, and I’m trying to speak only from what I have said before, which is on the 13-page letter and in which in theory has whistleblower protection. But, obviously, if you read or anyone rereads that letter, which is now kind of ancient history, you will see a remarkable denial on the part of the mid-level management people at headquarters that any al Qaeda operative could exist — be existing here in the United States. Of course, the comments that were made which I’m aware of do not display that there was any urgency on the part of these people to react to news that was being generated from the field offices.
As you should be able to see, that entire paragraph is nothing but suggestion and innuendo, hinting at some grave thing without ever saying what that thing is.
I'm reminded of all of the evidence of the Trump-Russia collusion: it's been nothing but the media hinting around for months, without ever saying anything specific and verifiable.
And no, given that opener, I have no desire to go read the rest of the article at the source. If there were any substance to whatever this is, the person who posted the excerpt should have, at the least, excerpted some of the "meat" of the story.

Your impaired, and poorly informed opinion.
