CNN’s Phil Mudd: FBI’s ‘Ticked’ at Trump Over Memo and They’re ‘Going to Win’ in End

CNN counterterrorism analyst Phil Mudd is known for making provocative on-air remarks and generally being fired up during segments. A CNN appearance on Friday, however, may end up being his most notorious yet.

Hours after the controversial Nunes memo dropped, Mudd indicated that the FBI was going to take matters into its own hands and make sure they eventually come out on top in a head-to-head battle with the president. With the FBI and its director already making their objections to the memo — which purports to show FISA abuses within the Russia probe — crystal clear before its release, Mudd said that agents at the bureau are angry and will stop President Donald Trump from dismantling the Russia investigation.

“The workforce will look at this and say this is an attack on our ability to conduct an investigation with integrity,” he exclaimed during a CNN panel discussion. “There are hundreds of agents and analysts working. This not just Christopher Wray, the FBI director.”

He continued, “So I’m going to tell you the FBI people are ticked. If you think you can push us off this because you can intimidate the director, you’d better think again. You’ve been around for 13 months. We’ve been around since 1908. I know how this game is going to be played. We’re going to win.”

Same media didnt care when Kathy Griffin depicted President Trump with his head cut off

They never speak out in public, but changes will occur and the rogues will find themselves before a court of law. They know who has done the organization damage and it is not the President or Congress. It is Comey and his merry band of henchmen. I know many FR folks don’t believe it, but a grand jury is coming soon.

Sadly, I think the FBI and the Swamp get away with it all again. And yes, Inthink Trump gets indicted on some fake charge.

“They never speak out in public...”

Correct. That makes them accomplices.

Phil Mudd is admitting what Schumer said is true.

And they mocked us (and Trump) for dare suggesting permanent gov’t institutions were at war with the President.

[HollyB]

What exactly does ‘they are going to win’ mean?

[healy61]

Excellent. 1908r’s are noobs.

[Bob Ireland]

***This man ... needs to be hauled in for directly threatening the Pres...***

Obvious case for pleading insanity...

[FreeReign]

He reveals truth we he said “we’re” rather than “they’re”.

Mudd was an Mueller appointee at the FBI.

Very true. The replacement of God by nihilism or excessive rationalism has left a huge gap in our nation's spiritual consciousness. Whenever societies allow those cultural gaps to grow unchecked, we get the totalitarian excesses of a Hitler, Stalin or Mao.

I believe we need a return to foundational principles or this nation is lost permanently. Trump has given us a temporary stopgap, but what we are doing is much larger than Trump or any secular movement. We have to reclaim our Judeo-Christian heritage that has been under assault for the last 70 years.

Cut their allowed agent end-strength by 15% other employment by 15%, payroll budget by 15% and operating budget by 20% with another 10% coming next year unless Congress gets a sepearate report from each division head on how he will reform his division.

Then watch the agency tear itself apart as they try to apportion blame.

Phil Mudd. Was his great grandad the doctor who helped the assasin and traitor John Wilkes Boothe?

Yes!

He's the great grandson.

Honestly it might be time for offense not defense.

I don't know who this clown is but I can tell you that after I read the memo, I certainly don't see the FBI as an incorruptible force for good. It is an organization of people, some of whom are corrupt.

The sad truth is, some cops are bad cops. They lie, they cheat and they break the law.

The press in the US is absolutely a wholly owned subsidiary of the DNC. They lie. They will continue to lie.

Finally, Obama was willing to break the law as he knew absolutely no one would hold him accountable. They never, ever have.

Troll, troll, troll your post

Phil Mudd. Was his great grandad the doctor who helped the assasin and traitor John Wilkes Boothe? Yes!

And, after he did so, his name was Mudd!

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller has been investigating whether President Donald Trump colluded with Russia during and after his campaign. While no evidence of that collusion has come out in the investigation, Mueller has found himself and his team under fire for hiring anti-Trump investigators.

Now Mueller is in the hot seat for something else entirely. Judicial Watch’s Tom Fitton says his watchdog organization has “uncovered the dirty little secret” that Mueller’s FBI was involved in the Obama IRS scandal that targeted and harassed conservative groups.
The Plot Thickens

Judicial Watch, a legal group that has long acted as a thorn in the corrupt federal government’s side by forcing public transparency, worked to expose the IRS scandal.

Last year, Judicial Watch proved that IRS personnel under Lois Lerner were targeting conservative groups that opposed Obama and applied for non-profit status.

JW President Tom Fitton, however, says there’s far more to the story. According to Fitton, Mueller’s FBI was going after those same groups, identified by Lois Lerner in their applications for 501(c)(3) status.

Fitton stated:

One of the things we uncovered in investigating the IRS scandal in getting documents Congress couldn’t get and didn’t want to get was that the Justice Department was working with Lois Lerner’s FBI to prosecute the very groups that Lois Lerner was suppressing through the IRS…the Justice Department and the FBI under Robert Mueller were concocting ways to prosecute President Obama’s political opposition.

The problem, as Fitton points out, is that the FBI got caught and had to turn over documents they obtained—illegally—from the IRS.

The jokes just write themselves. Mudd's name should be exactly that with the Secret Service.
