On Page Xii of the IG report the Department of Justice Office of Inspector General (DOJ-OIG) highlights numerous FBI officials who accepted bribes from multiple media outlets including: “tickets to sporting events”, “golf outings”, “drinks and meals” as well as exclusive invitations and admission to “nonpublic social events”.

Interesting....hadn’t heard of this until now.

I don’t have cable news turned on. Not surprised.

Corrupt as any banana republic.

If the dollars are high enough there should be terminations—if higher still and part of a pattern of misconduct, criminal referrals.

I believe that is against the law.

But not if they are Democrats..................

Wasn’t political, it was economic.

From the article:

"We identified numerous FBI employees, at all levels of the organization and with no official reason to be in contact with the media, who were nevertheless in frequent contact with reporters. Attached to this report as Attachments E and F are two link charts that reflect the volume of communications that we identified between FBI employees and media representatives in April/May and October 2016. We have profound concerns about the volume and extent of unauthorized media contacts by FBI personnel that we have uncovered during our review."

"In addition, we identified instances where FBI employees improperly received benefits from reporters, including tickets to sporting events, golfing outings, drinks and meals, and admittance to nonpublic social events. We will separately report on those investigations as they are concluded, consistent with the Inspector General Act, other applicable federal statutes, and OIG policy."

Dollars don’t matter when the public trust is involved.

Certain companies can’t even accept a cup of coffee from a vendor.

I'm not sure who would do the firings or the prosecutions. We don't really have a working DOJ. Well, I guess it's working in a sense. It's just not working for justice.
