The FBI's Bizarre Cover-Up of the GOP Baseball Shooting
Front Page ^ | June 22, 2017 | Daniel Greenfield

Posted on 06/22/2017 1:16:16 PM PDT by detective

James Hodgkinson's assault on Republican members of Congress was the most serious political assassination in decades. And yet at the same time it was wrapped up by the Capitol Police.

There was really little for the FBI to do here. Hodgkinson's motives were fairly clear. He had a list of names of targets. His social media was filled with rants against Republicans. A witness describes him studying the area of his future attack. According to Rep. DeSantis, he asked if the players were Republicans or Democrats.

This is about as open and shut as anything gets. All the FBi had to do was go through his laptop and phone to confirm that he hadn't been coordinating with anyone else.   Except the FBI instead decided to treat Hodgkinson as if he were a Muslim terrorist. And by that I mean launch into a cover-up of his motives.

Just like they have done in recent cases with Muslim terrorists, the corrupt FBI goes into Sgt. Schultz mode and say they see nothing.

What did Bernie know and when did he know it?

Where was the listed printed?

Is there an image on the copier/printer hard drive?

They learned their lessons well from Eric Holder - to only uphold the stuff you want to uphold.

So, Muslims aren’t terrorists unless they’re partisan Democrats in which case they’re Muslim Terrorists and not left wing terrorist?

I’m sensing a pecking order of head in the sand here....

Sorry, I misread that last sentence.

They decide to treat him LIKE he was a Muslim and cover up his motives.

My bad.

There’s a strong need to get new leadership at the FBI. I don’t understand why a new Director hasn’t been put into place yet.

I think this shooting should be personalized like the Gabby Giffords shooting. It should always be called the Scalise shooting or the Steve Scalise shooting.

FBI? Are they police or something like that? Or a political police force. The Nazis had a political police force, too. The SS.

There’s that word again: “Simultaneous”.

Where’d we hear that before?

Doesn’t it seem like this Scalise shooting has disappeared from the news pretty quickly??

It’s as if the media have no interest in the ramifications of a toxic political climate, and political assassination attempts.

I have to think that this would not be the case, if Democrats had been targeted by a deranged man with conservative political views.

OOPs.

“At this point in the investigation, it appears more spontaneous,” Slater said.

There’s that word again: “Spontaneous”.

Where’d we hear that before?

"I don’t understand why a new Director hasn’t been put into place yet."

Because no one wants the job now that the fascists have made it clear to everyone that anyone who takes a job in the Trump admin and isn't a holdover from the Clinton/Obama machine is going to be dragged through the mud and lied about constantly.

How many people do you know who want to put up with that up to and including thugs attacking your wife and children?

The FBI must whitewash that fact.

As in “the attack on Benghazi was a ‘spontaneous’ response to an anti-Muslim video that no one ever saw”.

Supposedly this whack-job had been in touch with specific Dem members of Congress, including Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois.

They are protecting their own......................

It’s fake news before the media gets it!

They’re saving the media the trouble spinning it as something it was not!

Christopher Wray has been named. Senate just needs to get him confirmed.

The FBI is still in enemy hands and will be until/unless McCabe is removed. The glacial pace in removing Obama appointees is going to be the death of this Administration.
