The long-simmering feud between President Trump and the Justice Department erupted into open conflict Wednesday when the FBI publicly challenged the president’s expected release of a contentious and classified memo related to the probe of Russian meddling in the 2016 election.
In a rare unsigned statement, the FBI cited “grave concerns” with inaccuracies and omissions in the four-page memo, which was written by House Republicans and alleges abuses at the Justice Department connected to secret surveillance orders. Trump has told advisers that the memo could benefit him by undercutting the special counsel’s investigation and allow him to oust senior Justice Department officials — and that he wants it released soon, something that could happen as early as Thursday.
“We have grave concerns about the material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the memo’s accuracy,” the FBI said.
The extraordinary statement pits the nation’s top federal law enforcement agency against a commander in chief who already has fired one FBI director and has repeatedly expressed a desire to remove the attorney general and others connected to the Russia investigation. That probe, led by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III, is aimed in part at determining whether any Trump associates coordinated with Russian efforts to interfere in the 2016 election and investigating any related issues.

Was that the same trash company that was involved in the mysterious death of the top US cybersecurity expert who was mugged, wandered around aimlessly, disappeared and then killed and tossed in a dumpster a few years back?
The FBI needs to be dismantled and rebuilt, it’s shameful what it has become.
They should have signed it "Your friends at the FBI".
“Got to get Deep State out of our intelligence agencies.”
We need to get every rabid lefty that voted for Hillary out of the fed govt. All 97 percent of them.
“It’s shaping up to be a death match between Trump and the Deep State.”
My money is on President Donald Trump, no doubt or question.
Deep state don’t want the Presidents Army of Deplorables to decide the tree of liberty needs nourishment.
Well, that IS the reason for the meeting, why it was sent over. Why else would they meet?
Gee, would have been nice if the FBI would have posted on their site last year the fact that President Trump was *not* under investigation. Their web site guru must have been out in 2017.
He removed himself from the Trump Russia collusiom probe. This obviously has everthing to do with it.
Get the memo out and watch these rats scatter. I want polygraph on these traitors that wrote this “unsigned” objection and their immediate termination without retirement!! Where is sessions?
Clinton almost got away with it and who knows WTF Obama would do next knowing the death of America was mission accomplished by him.
Open conflict? Fine, anyone crossing Trump gets fired. Start with Boyd. No one is going to criticize Trump.
This is the end of the FIB as we have known it. The panic has turned into a rout!! Go Trump. Bust their ass!! We have open treason caught in the headlights!!
Ditto’s!
Who is it? Valarie Jarrett and Barack Obama over at his Colorama digs?
If the deep state is embarrassed about the choices they made, maybe they should have made different choices.
AND
If FBI thugs are going to get off on sex stories how about showing us Hillary and Huma? I mean we don’t want Hillary to be blackmailed, right? So let’s use it as an excuse to peep on her campaign... and children and husband.
A lot of chutzpah but then again they obviously have nothing to fear from wray or sessions. /rolleyes

And the Washington Post? They benefit from corrupt thugs in intelligence ‘leaking’. Can’t cover the circus if you’re effing the elephants...
Release the memo and let the FBI release any omissions.
These so called omissions are documents that the FBI refused to hand over to congress in the first place. In other words they are the source of the omissions.
Hopefully Sessions is going to trigger the raids concurrently with the memo release.
