Stewart’s response certainly adds fuel to the fire, has Priestap flipped?
Sundance over at conservative treehouse has been arguing this for awhile. Comey threw the guy under the bus in his Congressional hearings, so it would make sense.
That remains to be seen.
No Freaking way has he flipped!! He is as CORRUPT as they come! You are dreaming.
Well somebody is basically leaking some of this stuff that’s piece by piece exposing the conspiracy that we do know of beyond just congressional committee members doing it. Has to be someone in the DOJ
Whateves Ann!
I understand how you feel, me too, but Trump apparently doesn't feel the same way.
Even corrupt people flip to save their own ass.
Priestap was thrown under the bus not once, but twice, by Obama’s people, yet no one mentions him despite his necessary centrality to the conspiracy.
Rep. Stewart is suggesting we’re going to be hearing “a lot more about Preistap” when asked, then refuses to answer when asked if he has flipped. So either he’s flipped or we’re about to hear how bad he is.
Not meaning to sound trite, but that's precisely why it's called "flipping."
Which is why he would flip.
ROFLOL! FR without trite comments wouldn’t be FR.
Ok....then whose leaking the IG investigation? That’s a in-house DOJ issue where the IG after finding whatever then comes forward to Congress to tell what he or she has found.
SD just posted this:
Game Over – Judge Jeanine Interview With HPSCI Rep. Chris Stewart…
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/02/10/game-over-judge-jeanine-interview-with-hpsci-rep-chris-stewart/
Excerpt from link:
So there we have FBI Director James Comey telling congress on March 20th that the reason he didn’t inform the statutory oversight “Gang of Eight” was because Bill Priestap (Director of Counterintelligence) recommended he didn’t do it.
Apparently, according to Comey, Bill Priestap carries a great deal of influence if he could get his boss to NOT perform a statutory obligation simply by recommending he doesn’t do it.
Then again, Comey’s blame-casting there is really called creating a “fall guy”. FBI Director James Comey was ducking responsibility in March 2017 by blaming FBI Director of Counterintelligence Bill Priestap for not informing congress of the operation that began in July 2016. (9 months prior).
In essence, Bill Priestap was James Comey’s fall guy. We knew it at the time that Bill Priestap would likely see this the same way. The guy would have too much to lose by allowing James Comey to set him up.
Immediately there was motive for Bill Priestap to flip and become the primary source to reveal the hidden machinations. Why should he take the fall for the operation when there were multiple people around the upper-levels of leadership who carried out the operation.
Our suspicions were continually confirmed because there was NO MENTION of Bill Priestap in any future revelations of the scheme team, despite his centrality to all of it.
Sure sounds like it....
