Did you know the DOJ has been investigating the FBI for 11 months…. wait, what?
Hold-up on the criticism folks. Three important statements today from the DOJ, FBI and OIG indicate there have been ongoing investigations and reviews of conduct within the upper tiers of leadership within the Department of Justice and the FBI.
Given the nature of the leaked IG investigation to the Washington Post and New York times; surrounding apex investigator and deputy head of counterintelligence at the FBI Peter Strzok; and accepting the direct approach of President Trump in his tweets toward that revelation; and adding the layer of Intel Chairman Devin Nunes threatening to file ‘contempt of congress charges‘; there is every indication something is about to break – very soon.
“[The allegations] if proven to be true, would raise serious questions of public trust. I look forward to receiving the Inspector General’s report. We will ensure that anyone who works on any investigation in the Department of Justice does so objectively and free from bias or favoritism.”
“My job is to restore confidence in the Department of Justice in all aspects of our work and I intend to do so. As such, I have directed that the FBI Director review the information available on this and other matters and promptly make any necessary changes to his management and investigative teams consistent with the highest professional standards.”
~ Attorney General Jeff Sessions
“When the FBI first learned of the allegations, the employees involved were immediately reassigned, consistent with practices involving employee matters.”
~ FBI Spokesperson
Here’s the critical OIG statement:
“The January 2017 statement issued by the Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General (OIG) announcing its review of allegations regarding various actions of the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation in advance of the 2016 election stated that the OIG review would, among other things, consider whether certain underlying investigative decisions were based on improper considerations and that we also would include issues that might arise during the course of the review.
The OIG has been reviewing allegations involving communications between certain individuals, and will report its findings regarding those allegations promptly upon completion of the review of them.”
~ Justice Department Office of the Inspector General
What the OIG statement is saying is that for 11 months the Dept of Justice OIG office has been investigating the politicization within the DOJ and FBI and deciding if the actions, or lack of action, was driven by the political ideology of the participants therein.
I was not aware this investigation was taking place, were you?
Apparently the DOJ-OIG is close to “reporting its findings.”
It would be prudent to withhold negative opinion of AG Sessions and FBI Director Wray until we can see the outcome of the Inspector General findings – which will, given the duration of the investigation, likely be a very lengthy and extensive report.
All of a sudden the recent FBI leaks to the Washington Post and New York Times make more sense. All of the embedded political agents within the DOJ and FBI are quite possibly about to be exposed. This would explains a lot of the current activity and visible angst from within the participants of the professional administrative state.
This year-long OIG investigation could possibly explain a great deal of the current headlines on all sides of the DC spectrum. The black hats are on the cusp of being exposed.
>>if he didn’t have faith in Sessions, he would have been gone
LOL. Yea sure.

“biggest mistake”
“idiot”
“told him to resign”
etc..
Remember DTJ’s tweet a few weeks ago ‘sic. It’s worse than you thought’. This is what I was thinking would happen.
I guess this is why Holder’s name has popped up in the news recently.....
And what do you have to show for you inconsequential life newbie?
The real question should be the following.
What does Hillary Clinton know that the Deep State fears so much?
My guess is she will expose others in D.C. that did the same thing. Possibly expose the entire Satanic pedophile network in D.C., Hollywood and abroad. That could possibly destabilize the Republic.
I’m only speculating, but I don’t understand all the endless stalling. I would say A.G. Sessions is probably 90 days past due charging Hillary at this point. It should have happened at the longest point 90 days ago.
“So why aren’t the Committees and investigators, and of course our beleaguered A.G., looking into Crooked Hillarys crimes & Russia relations?”

What does “beleaguered” mean?
What do you base that on? Do you have experience litigating white collar crime and racketeering? What are your credentials for making such a statement?
Yes
Yes

Hey why don’t you tell everybody about the days when you were the Mafia enforcer... or whatever that fish tale has grown into these days.
Always good for a laugh.
Goes hand in hand with everything I’ve always thought and posted about Inspectors General - no matter which agency. Nearly a year investigating? Just remember - “we’re here to monitor - not actually do anything.” For I don’t know how many years, we’ve heard about the IG of this agency or the IG of that agency investigating an issue and what have we ever gotten from any of them? There may or may not be a report issued on this subject and that will be the end of it. That’s my prediction. For an IG to do their actual job is to be out of work - at least that’s the way it worked in the obozo years!
Remember the big guy IG - for State, I believe - who sat in on the Benghazi hearings? He always appeared as tho’ he wanted to say something incriminating to the agency but he always held back. He looked like he was straining to keep quiet and he probably had been told to! I think it was the same hearing where Charlene Lamb and that horrible Patrick Kennedy were - who it appears is no longer at State after the inauguration of Trump. He should have been fired long before that took place.

What are your credentials for talking about what is the right time frame?
First, I am NOT talking about Uranium One scandal as you appear to be implying.
Second, Hillary’s illegal email servers is an open shut case. Comey looked at it and admitted she clearly broke the law 39 times. With that information alone you can prosecute Hillary. Comey just said he was not going to prosecute her okay.
Therefore, you don’t have to be a law scholar to understand they can prosecute her now.

What kind of man gives cigarettes to TREES!
...what you said, ladybug.
I’ve been disappointed in Sessions so far, but I don’t have all the facts.
I have to rely on DJT that he knows what he is doing and what is going on. Some of this public prodding of Sessions may be simply for the consumption of the masses.
I would not be surprised if they are having a good laugh over all of this, behind the scenes.
And if they keep that scumbag Mitt out of the Senate, I’ll cheer!
"U.S. Justice Department charges ex-Deutsche Bank subprime trader with civil fraud"
"Charges" pfft. A civil fart in a wind storm - not a CRIMINAL indictment.
Letting the thieves pay fines with the money they stole -- If that's your idea of justice, Sessions and the herd of neutered L.I.F.E.R. swamp poodles will not disappoint.
You really do belong over at conservative nuthouse with the rest of the mark bradman sundunce delusional folks who think sessions is doing a great job. By the time you and sessions see the light the statute of limitations will have run on all of the clinton obama scandals.
“Who did Sessions appoint to do the investigating...Rod Rosenstein?”
Sessions recused himself...he wants Rosenfeinstein to make the appointment.
“Goes hand in hand with everything I’ve always thought and posted about Inspectors General - no matter which agency. Nearly a year investigating”
Tell me about it. I am retired from DOJ OIG. Reports do take forever to publish. Excruciatingly detailed work...every i dotted and t crossed. Rock solid documentation for every assertion and finding. No wiggle room. HOWEVER, when it gets into political hands (AG) then things can curiously change.
