EXCLUSIVE: FBI Agents Say Comey ‘Stood In The Way’ Of Clinton Email Investigation
The Daily Caller ^ | October 17th, 2016 | Kerry Picket

Posted on 10/17/2016 5:09:00 PM PDT by Mariner

FBI agents say the bureau is alarmed over Director James Comey’s decision to not suggest that the Justice Department prosecute Hillary Clinton over her mishandling of classified information.

According to an interview transcript given to The Daily Caller, provided by an intermediary who spoke to two federal agents with the bureau last Friday, agents are frustrated by Comey’s leadership.

“This is a textbook case where a grand jury should have been convened, but was not. That is appalling,” an FBI special agent who has worked public corruption and criminal cases said of the decision. “We talk about it in the office and don’t know how Comey can keep going.”

The agent was also surprised that the bureau did not bother to search Clinton’s house during the investigation.

Of course, if Hillary wins, that’s the end of it.

But even if Trump wins, it’ll be moot in that Obama will pardon the big shots like Hillary, Comey, and Lynch.

Still, some of the small fries might get prosecuted, and the full story aired.

There were more honest agents in Sodom.

The FB”I” will be eternally remembered for this
and for letting Islamic terrorists MURDER AMERICANS
here and elsewhere and then, by Comey, covering it up.

Comey has let the Clintons off THREE times in their criminal history. They have something BIG to blackmail him with. No decent FBI agents can trust or respect this corrupted man.

I think they're going to wait until the king has left the building.

Oh come on. “Tee Vee” is just a jokey, somewhat derisive derisive term for the tube. It’s been used for years, decades maybe.

Try cutting back on the caffeine! :)

No decent American can trust or respect FBI agents who continue to work under this corrupted man.

If YOU remember anything about Watergate,

What I remember is Lawyer Hillary Rodham being fired for being Dishonest and Unethical by the Prosecutor in the Impeachment of Richard Nixon.

It appears that the Democrats, with the acquiescence of Republicans, have successfully corrupted all three branches of the Federal Government. To the extent this is true, and if Clinton is elected, the persecution will begin of everyone who opposes her tyrannical regime.

From CNN, July 2016...

This was not his first time investigating the Clintons [Comey]

Nor his second. The email server probe marked the third time Comey has investigated Bill or Hillary Clinton.

His first run-in came in the mid-1990s, when he joined the Senate Whitewater Committee as a deputy special counsel. There he dug into allegations that the Clintons took part in a fraud connected to a Arkansas real estate venture gone bust. No charges were ever brought against either Clinton..."

"In 2002, Comey, then a federal prosecutor, took over an investigation into President Bill Clinton's 2001 pardon of financier Marc Rich, who had been indicted on a laundry list of charges before fleeing the country . ..."

http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/07/politics/who-is-james-comey-fbi-director-things-to-know/index.html
__________________________________

"The Whitewater controversy (also known as the Whitewater scandal, or simply Whitewater) began with investigations into the real estate investments of Bill and Hillary Clinton and their associates, Jim and Susan McDougal, in the Whitewater Development Corporation, a failed business venture in the 1970s and 1980s."

Whitewater Convictions

Jim Guy Tucker: Governor of Arkansas at the time, removed from office (fraud, 3 counts)

John Haley: attorney for Jim Guy Tucker (tax evasion)

William J. Marks, Sr.: Jim Guy Tucker's business partner (conspiracy)

Stephen Smith: former Governor Clinton aide (conspiracy to misapply funds). Bill Clinton pardoned.

Webster Hubbell: Clinton political supporter; Rose Law Firm partner (embezzlement, fraud)

Jim McDougal: banker, Clinton political supporter: (18 felonies, varied)

Susan McDougal: Clinton political supporter (multiple fraud). Bill Clinton pardoned.

David Hale: banker, self-proclaimed Clinton political supporter: (conspiracy, fraud)

Neal Ainley: Perry County Bank president (embezzled bank funds for Clinton campaign)

Chris Wade: Whitewater real estate broker (multiple loan fraud). Bill Clinton pardoned.

Larry Kuca: Madison real estate agent (multiple loan fraud)

Robert W. Palmer: Madison appraiser (conspiracy). Bill Clinton pardoned.

John Latham: Madison Bank CEO (bank fraud)

Eugene Fitzhugh: Whitewater defendant (multiple bribery)

Charles Matthews: Whitewater defendant (bribery)

Ultimately the Clintons were never charged, but 15 other persons were convicted of more than 40 crimes, including Bill Clinton's successor as Governor, who was removed from office.[40]

Talk’s cheap, and the FBI’s reputation is shot. And it will stay shot until they actually do something about it, and I don’t mean press releases.

“This is a textbook case where a grand jury should have been convened, but was not. That is appalling”

Detective Gregory: "Is there any other point to which you would wish to draw my attention?"

Sherlock Holmes: "To the curious incident of the dog in the night-time."

Detective Gregory: "The dog did nothing in the night-time."

Sherlock Holmes: "That was the curious incident."

What was the dog that didn't bark here?

The FBI does NOT have the power to convene a grand jury.

Yes, Comey is a dirty cop, but he did not have the power to order a grand jury.

Where is Loretta Lynch? Why isn't she sitting in front of Congress?

Use of a grand jury would have to be initiated by the Department of Justice. Loretta Lynch.

Why is the media and the Republican party protecting Loretta Lynch? Why is Comey made the public face of this farce?

So this agent, an no-doubt many many more have direct knowledge of how Comey obstructed justice. Yet is Comey being charged? Is he in custody? No? Then all you “agents” can sit down and STFU. No-one is buying your BS line about how great the agency is and how it is just a problem at the top. The problem is you. Criminals come and go, in fact without criminals we wouldn’t need an FBI. You agents, your failure to act makes you accomplices after the fact and just as complacent in Comey and Clinton’s crimes. Enjoy it, but don’t cry over your lost reputation and lack of respect. You are deserving of none.
