James Comey presides over an FBI in revolt over his leadership, a former U.S. attorney tells The American Spectator, and pursues “paranoid, delusional, and vindictive” measures to prevent negative information leaking out to the public.
“I know that inside the FBI there is a revolt,” Joseph diGenova tells The American Spectator. “There is a revolt against the director. The people inside the bureau believe the director is a dirty cop. They believe that he threw the [Hillary Clinton email] case. They do not know what he was promised in return. But the people inside the bureau who were involved in the case and who knew about the case are talking to former FBI people expressing their disgust at the conduct of the director.”
The loss of faith in the bureau chief stems in part from a dishonest rendering of the decision not to indict Mrs. Clinton as unanimous rather than unilateral and in part from the bureau’s decision to destroy evidence in the case and grant blanket immunity to Clinton underlings for no possible prosecutorial purpose.
“There is a consensus among the employees that the director has lost all credibility and that he cannot lead the bureau,” diGenova explains. “They are comparing him to L. Patrick Gray, the disgraced former FBI director who threw Watergate papers into the Potomac River. The resistance to the director has made the agency incapable of action. It has been described to me as a depression within the agency unlike anything that anyone has ever seen within the bureau. The director’s public explanation for the unorthodox investigation are viewed by people in the bureau as sophomoric and embarrassing.”

If these guys were as upset as DiGenova says, they should band together to avoid retaliation. There were a hundred of them, so says the news. If, say 35 or 40 came out saying simply, “It was NOT unanimous,” it would be hard even for Obama to retaliate at that scale.
My opinion: They are not fed up. They don’t fight corruption. They are part and parcel, until they act.
No, Comey goes WAAAYYY beyond being a “Dirty Cop”.
The dirty cops are the FBI agents, who, knowing what they know, won’t arrest that traitorous bastard for Treason.
If those agents, themselves, were honorable men, they would resign and have a strong effect thereby on the political process.

The Drum beat gets louder from the FBI.
Yr smug post, ignores just how dangerous the Clintooons are, I wonder how keen you would be...
Do we need an FBI? And if so, what for?
An FBI agent’s responsibility is to his family first and then his country. Do you blame them if they are careful with their careers?
Yes. I blame them.
Same could be said about draft dodgers who fled to Canada. Do you excuse them as well?
L. Patrick Gray was weak and gullible, but it is unfair to him to compare him to Comey.
"People are throwing around a lot of allegations without much evidence. Please, clarify which laws Ms Clinton has been breaking."
The MSM is doing a great job continuing the narrative that the criiminal has done nothing.
Allowing this country to become an utterly lawless banana republic won’t hurt their own families as long as they have their pension plans?
The whole FBI, DOJ is corrupt.
I’m sceptical. FBI agents are not paragons of virtue. They will happily go out and stalk, harrass or kill anybody they are told to. I have house for any of them. Its just another rogue govt agency.
I’m still waiting for such brave FBI agents to out themselves and go on the record that Comey is a traitor. After all, they cited to protect the US from all enemies, foreign and domestic right?
Oh, I forgot about that clause in their oath that lets them skip out of their duty if it puts their mortgage payments at risk or their pensions in jeopardy.
Hey Comey, let us know how you spend your 30 pieces of silver!
“The Drum beat gets louder from the FBI.”
LOL, Not one agent has come forward and said a word. This is all just trying to polish their image.
What changed your mind in the last week? We have to have faith in the thousand of honest, effective , and loyal American agents.
The blatant facts that they pussyed OUT!
