Former US Attorney for the District of Columbia told Sean Hannity on Wednesday night that we are going to see several criminal charges against a number of top DOJ-FBI officials.
Former US Attorney for the District of Columbia Joe diGenova says several senior DOJ and FBI officials will face criminal charges.
Joe diGenova: We are heading toward a very sad ending for the FBI and senior DOJ officials. McCabe is gone because Wray knows what’s in the other emails and other texts… The investigation that is underway is going to lead to criminal charges against a number of people. What you are seeing coming out now in the text messages is just the minimum of what is available now to DOJ officials… I believe that several high FBI officials will be charged criminally.
This is the largest law enforcement scandal in history for this reason. The activity for McCabe and others, and Bruce Ohr and others, were designed to subvert the Constitution and a national election – the most serious offense under our Constitution.
I’ve got a great timeline to share... be right back with it.
I’m with you.
All of this could be dealt with right now. Ryan and McConnell forming a mighty front and demanding grand jury, firings of FBI agents, DOJ employees and an end to Mueller’s investigation. Also demanding Sessions un-recuse himself.
Where is McConnell demanding Sen Warner step down/recuse himself from intel committee? Oh hec no, we got ole Rubio defending him.
No one in Congress in our party is fighting for our country and demanding the truth on conspiracy against a sitting President except Nunes and Grassley.
Just like dealing with Pelosi, one Republican Congress guy on TV this morning said Pelsi never brought up DACA or immigration, dreamers when they were in majority and also had Obama as President.
Our messengers stink- always have. We are nothing but toy poodles in front of cameras. Dems are pit bulls.

Comey was fired. Doesn't that count?
Democrats are LAW-LESS because Republican Leaders are BALL-LESS!
OTOH, Joe D. is an excellent attorney. He, along with his particularly well-qualified law partner are very much involved in the U One lawsuit.
As a result of their legal work, they may be in a position to confidently state, "There is compelling evidence the Russian government was given "aid and comfort" in the form of military capability that presented a clear warfaring threat to the U.S."
Schiff stated on the record there was evidence of Russian involvement in 26 state elections. Coincidence?
There can be no doubt there is much more we in the public are not aware of.
“Don’t hold your breath, Joe.”
You sound like McCain. He’s of the ilk that rush to wave the white flag just as fast as is humanly possible.
You hurried to be post #2 in a thread to announce your unconditional surrender.
Maybe you should put your big boy panties on.
He’s still receiving his pension
I recommend that you hold your breath.

we are going to see several criminal charges against a number of top DOJ-FBI officials.

Jay-walking? Maybe, wearing white after Labor Day?! /s
How ‘bout Cankles? Zero? Lynch? Holder?
How ‘bout inviting/hounding someone until they *DO* their job. If I want sensationalism, I’ll read the Enquirer. What you’re selling isn’t NEWS (it ain’t happening).
“The investigation that is underway is going to lead to criminal charges against a number of people,”
Not if Jeff has anything to say about it. Maybe if we can get Finland or Latvia to bring charges but not us.

Not if Jeff has anything to say about it. Maybe if we can get Finland or Latvia to bring charges but not us.
So far the only people charged with anything are people associated with the Trump campaign. Mueller is still going wide-open and Sessions is invisible.
Mueller wants to “interview” Trump. Haven’t heard where Mueller wants to “interview” Obama or Hillary. And when a ‘Rat gets caught lying or “colluding” with the Russians, GOPe hacks like Rubio, Flake, McCain, and Burr rush to their defense.
I’ll repeat: I ain’t holding my breath waiting for indictments of any Obama/Hillary operatives. As they say in Missouri, “show me.”
Horowitz was new when F&F broke. Then he learned he was shut down and shut out of doing his job by Obama’s circle.
So yes, he has a mixed record but he waged a quiet data gathering effort on the Obama camp while he was shunned. Now he’s coming out with it. So far, Horowitz shows no sign of bowing to political pressure from the Obama camp and the Trump camp appears to be letting him do his job which he was not allowed to do under Obama.
>> It might very well be that an incremental process could actually take us to that point, but some (such as the President, even)—in order to spare the nation something like a civil war, perhaps—may decide to go ahead and let the issue die, as far as getting a formal conviction.
If this were merely politics and “dirty tricks” I would be content to let the issue die. If this were merely an issue of personal revenge (Trump vs. Hillary or something similar) I would be willing to let the issue die.
But IMO this goes far beyond either of those situations. We are looking at corruption that makes “banana republics” look like paragons of law and order.
When the system is so fundamentally broken that there are laws for “the little people” but essentially no laws to restrain “the elite”, I see limited options for the future:
1. It will be addressed and fixed properly through the legal system, with the guilty parties held accountable. This means serious jail time. This could involve riots and bloodshed by those disconnected from reality. We have seen this on a small scale at events like Ferguson, Rodney King, Trump inauguration, Charlottesville, and similar. I do not expect this to be widespread because in many of these cases the rioters were either paid or incited or both. Also to consider, if the true perps are arrested and prosecuted, that could either reduce the rioting since their funds and connections (hopefully) would be cut off, or it could make them worse since the perps now have nothing left to lose.
2. The people will have become sheep and take whatever the government dishes out. (The mode we’ve been in for a long time, primarily because “the elite” have been successful at hiding the truth, and spinning whenever a glimmer of it leaked out.)
3. There will be a bloody revolution to overthrow a corrupt government and take back the country or establish a new country.
Obviously, I’d prefer #1. I think #2 is least likely. Why? Because it’s a simmering pot that is every day closer to boiling over, because normals are far more aware despite the propaganda they are fed daily. If it comes down to #3, the normals will win. They are the ones with the weapons and the will. Those who are corrupt fall into two categories: the people who are waited on hand and foot and can’t do anything for themselves and their constituents, the takers, who are lazy and won’t do anything for themselves.
Our best weapon: Truth.
Wow. Lot of data there.
I hope Joe is right. Somebody needs to go down. Actually a lot of somebody’s.
Big time.
If a member of the government class is again able to skate without paying the price for lawlessness, I for one, will never as a juror, hold a fellow citizen to account for ANY violation of an ANY government rule or regulation. I will fairly judge for crimes against people or personal property, but not for any governmental infraction.
They don't want me as a jury for someone who sues the government for prosecuting them for not paying taxes.
