Veteran FBI agents say FBI Director James Comey has permanently damaged the bureau’s reputation for uncompromising investigations with his “cowardly” whitewash of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s mishandling of classified information using an unauthorized private e-mail server. Agents say Comey tied investigators’ hands by agreeing to unheard-of ground rules and other demands by the lawyers for Clinton and her aides that limited their investigation. Comey has turned a once-proud institution known for its independence into one that bows to election pressure, hands out political immunity to candidates and effectively pardons their co-conspirators. He’s turned the FBI into the Federal Bureau of Immunity and lost the trust and respect of not only his agents but the country at large. He ought to step down.

Yes, they are revolting.
We have been fed stories of the impending revolt of the serious, ethical, career FBI agents and Justice Department attorneys over the Clinton cover-ups.
But the thundering herds never appear.
Compare what we see today with the events that transpired over Watergate and lead to Nixon’s resignation.
The high level of criminality in the White House and Justice Department today make Dick Nixon’s transgressions look about as serious as a rascal caught with his hand in the cookie jar.
In what has become known as the “Saturday Night Massacre” on October 20, 1973, President Nixon ordered Attorney General Elliot Richardson and Deputy Attorney General William Ruckelshaus to fire Watergate independent special prosecutor Archibald Cox. However, rather than violate their promises to the Congressional oversight committees that they would not interfere, these men resigned. It was Solicitor General, Robert Bork (as acting head of the Justice Department), who finally fired Cox, with the excuse that he had not made a similar promise to Congress.
How many FBI agents resigned rather than destroy evidence and become complicit in actons which gave aid and comfort to the enemy?
The FBI is pretty much toast in our minds.
Perhaps it can be saved, but , methinks the cancer is too deep.
Sepuku is the only option.
Comey has long been bought and paid for by the Clintons - With the Clinton case going to the FBI the unit was activated.
Wiki: (there was another Clinton reference but it has been scrubbed)
He was the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, from January 2002 to the time of his confirmation as Deputy Attorney General on December 11, 2003. Among his first tasks was to take over the investigation into President Bill Clinton’s controversial pardon of Marc Rich ...
The question is was Comey appointed Director before or after Obama & Jarrett told HRC to stop using her private server for government email. It may be Comey was appointed specifically to clear Clinton (Obama & Jarrett knowing he was a Clinton creature) and thus avoid charging the otherwise complicit Obama and Jarrett.
Oh look, a little agitprop released by the politburo to give the proles a hope that maybe, just maybe the government’s corruption is not complete.
Still waiting.
I have an Army buddy who’s an FBI agent.
He said they will revolt, but I’m still waiting ...
Yeah...sure...thousands of them. Right.
Never happen. They're bought and paid for by taxpayer plunder and they aren't going to rock the boat. They and other government "workers" are part of the problem.
Sen Jeff Sessions thinks the United States Senate should investigate the FBI for its handling of the probe into Hillary Clinton’s email server, specifically the way the bureau granted Cheryl Mills immunity and appeared to destroy evidence pertinent to the investigation “This is scary to me,” Sessions added. “I tried not to be critical of Comey at first.” (Excerpt) Read more at dailycaller.com ...
=============================================
(hat tip Sgt Schultze) Comey punted on this b/c he didn’t want the Ken Starr treatment. He (and the entire FBI) knew that any serious investigation of Hillary would ensnare the first halfrican president. The boob emailed the beast.....even used a fake name sometimes. Boobamba was fully aware of all of the Clintons' activities and Hillary's barely disguised treachery as the Democrat Secretary of State.
Obama was cashing in along w/ the conniving Clintons. It is impossible to believe Boobamba did not know of the Clintons' buck-raking pay-to-play schemes. He has top level intel fed to him daily----and cannot pretend he did not know the Clintons were jerking around US foreign policy when the price was right.
==============================================
REFERENCE OBAMA BLITHELY HELPED HIMSELF TO STATE DEPT TAX DOLLARS The State Dept's Millenium Challenge Corp controlled by Hillary is the source of the 100 million tax dollars he gave to Michele "to teach Muslim girls" in Morocco.
(Cue laugh machine)....of course, ALL of the 100 million landed in Morocco.....for the children.
In watching TRUMP’s ‘town hall’ in New Hampshire last night, a question to him from a man in the audience... about cleaning out the agencies, government, of the gypsies, crooks, and thieves; but more importantly, the pointed question ‘will you fire Comey?” Trump went on to answer the cleaning would be done, HOWEVER he failed to answer the direct ‘firing’ question. What to do with Comey? Tie him to the whipping post; give the man a promotion, or imprison him? When his audience yells ‘LOCK HER UP’ he constantly comes back to them with the statement ‘let’s just win on Nov 8’. Wanting justice for all Americans, unable to determine what his plans may be for this group of ragga-muffins. He is not showing his hand at this time, unfortunately.
The FBI were sure happy to go after terrorists like Ammon Bundy.
And when?
How about some leaks? Shed some light on what’s really going on. It’s the BEST disinfectant.
And let's not forget the disgusting conduct of the FBI in the 1992 murders at Ruby Ridge in Idaho and the 1993 slaughter at the Branch Davidian compound near Waco, Texas.
The FBI doesn't exactly have a long tradition of honorable, ethical and legal conduct.
Never happen.
Those Government employees won’t give up therir high pay, cushy lives on the public job payroll.
The FBI/DOJ ‘side deals’ are further evidence of a highly politicized Obama Department of Justice. According to House Judiciary Committee chairman Bob Goodlatte (R., Va.), the immunity agreements struck by the Justice Department with Cheryl Mills and Heather Samuelson, two top subjects of the FBI’s Clinton e-mail investigation, included “side agreements.”
Pursuant to these side agreements, it was stipulated that (a) the FBI would not scrutinize any documents dated after January 31, 2015 (i.e., about five weeks before the most disturbing actions suggestive of obstruction of justice occurred); and (b) the FBI — in an investigation critically involving destruction of documents — would destroy the computers after conducting its search. --SNIP--
“An honorable man would have resigned rather than working for that place.”
Seems like Comey could have recused himself from the case.
Welcome to FR.

Trying to keep the lid on until Hillary’s Coronation.
An honorable man would have resigned rather than working for that place.

Stop and think about it: A man who IS honorable and did nothing wrong, has to resign and give up his years of service, his pension, his family’s economic security and everything because the a-hole at the top is corrupt? I don’t think it’s that simple.
