MSNBC contributor Frank Figliuzzi, a former FBI counterintelligence official, floated a conspiracy theory -
FRANK FIGLIUZZI: "... We have to understand the adversary and the threat we’re dealing with. And if we don't understand how they think, we’ll never understand how to counter them. So, it’s little things and language and messaging that matters. The President said that we will fly our flags at half-mast until August 8th. That's 8/8.Now, I'm not going to imply that he did this deliberately but I am using it as an example of the ignorance of the adversary that’s being demonstrated by the White House. The numbers “88” are very significant in neo-Nazi and white supremacy movement. Why? Because the letter “H” is the eighth letter of the alphabet and, to them, the numbers “88” together stand for “Heil Hitler.” So, we’re going to be raising the flag back up at dusk on 8/8. No one is thinking about this. No one is giving him the advice or he's rejecting the advice. So understand your adversary to counter the adversary."

This is not just some rando that MSNBC picked up from the streets, this is a Fmr. FBI Assistant Director for Counterintelligence, going overboard to 'link' this nonsense.
Folks, I think we have a MUCH DEEPER problem in the FBI and probably other intelligence community.
I’m sure 99.99999% of the people at the FIB are good patriots.

Just another fine, upstanding, rank-and-file, public-servant FBI officer in Washington DC headquarters
shut.it.down.
TDS isn’t a strong enough term anymore for some of these things.
Maybe there should be categories of TDS..
BBH TDS. Blinded by hate Trump derangement syndrome.
Only FASCISTS keep track of NAZI calendars.
This is what passes for FBI counter-intelligence.
OMG! My daughter lives in #88 Aspen Drive. I better get her out of that Nazi safehouse!
They are dangerously insane.
The only solution really is a locked, padded room for them.
Dad had one of these when I was young. Who knew?
A ‘NAZI’ message?
What!
Did the letters “n”, “a”, “z” (a most evil letter), or “i” appear in the White House message?
If so, get the guillotine from Franze and start to wear it out.
I guess this means Friday night is Kristallnacht and Saturday is the Great Day of the Rope.
More objective, fact-based journalism, of the sort that we need professional journalists to do for us because it’s so difficult and professional and all.
… but let's claim that Trump and his voters are Nazis anyway.
Oh, brother.
Needs a tin foil hat
Brian Williams is as stupid as the guy spouting this inane garbage.
The word FIGLIUZZi means psychotic in Italian.
So I guess pianos are nazi too?
Mr Frank Figliuzzi. That name is a honorific to Adolph Hitler.
There are 16 characters in the name
“Mr Frank Figliuzzi”.
8 + 8 = 16.
88.
Because the letter ‘H’ is the eighth letter of the alphabet, and to Mr Frank Figliuzzi , the numbers 8/8 stand for ‘Heil Hitler.’
Also, the numbers 88 stand for the Nazi 88mm Flak gun so successful during WWII.
If you say the name Mr Frank Figliuzzi, you have just said Heil Hitler.
