Lets look at a case study in Justice Department and news media bias: the treatment of President Trump compared with the treatment of Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California.
The media was gleeful over news first reported in The New York Times that a group of anti-Trump bureaucrats took it upon themselves to investigate President Trump as a traitor. The action, which came when the president fired their friend James Comey as FBI director in May 2017, has only served to clarify the establishment and media hostility toward President Trump.
With no evidence save some absurd and unsubstantiated opposition research paid for by the Clinton campaign and the Democrats Obama-era FBI officials are reported to have decided to covertly investigate the newly elected president for what amounts to treason.
This inquisition was apparently in addition to the counterintelligence investigation over alleged (and undefined) collusion between Trumps campaign and Russia to supposedly help elect Donald Trump as president.
Consider the FBIs multilayered attack on Trump compared to its dramatically different treatment of Feinstein after the bureau concluded that her driver and San Francisco office staffer of 20 years had been spying for the Chinese government.
The spying involving Feinstein wasnt reported by any news media organizations for five years which meant the FBI didnt feel the need to leak it. Even when this security breach was reported, it was only mentioned in passing by Politico Magazine in a story published last July 27 about extensive Chinese-espionage in Silicon Valley.
The Politico Magazine story, by Zach Dorfman said: Former intelligence officials told me that Chinese intelligence once recruited a staff member at a California office of U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein, and the source reported back to China about local politics.

Full title: Newt Gingrich: FBI, media give Feinstein a pass for her spy scandal, but attack Trump with no justification

Feinstein's "spy scandal" was apparently dealt with lightly by the FBI because they really couldn't determine that the spy on her staff was breaking any laws. Basically, the guy was passing along information about her political dealings -- not anything that would be covered under the Espionage Act or something similar -- to the Chinese government.
Feinstein is a Democrat. As such she is immune. Same for Hillary who, as outlined by James Comey, is a felon. Only Republicans are investigated, prosecuted, and punished. Democrats have free reign. Equal justice is nonexistent.
And you believe anything the FBI says these days because...?
Back in Sept 2014, Senate intel head Di/Fi was whining about the CIA looking through her computers
and taking documents. Clearly, the CIA had plenty on her.
INCONVENIENT FACTOIDS:
<><>Feinstein heads the Senate Intel Committee;
<><> Her hubby Richard Blum made million as the lawyer for Chinese interests and from tax-funded govt contracts;
<><> Did Di use her access to valuable US security data improperly?
<><> Hubby Richard Blum made millions in China deals in past years. How'd he do that?
<><> Is hubby cutting new deals w/ the Chi/Coms?
=======================================
LIFE CAN BE BEAUTIFUL IN THE FEDERAL SECTOR ---
Di/Fi and husband profit for 15 years from federal funds
NY Post | 1/19/15 | Richard Johnson / FR Posted by Libloather
Page Six reported on the lucrative deal Sen. Dianne Feinsteins husband has to sell 56 post office buildings barely scratched the surface of her conflicts of interest. The California Democrats financier husband, Richard C. Blum, is estimated to be a billionaire from his shrewd investments in companies that profit from federal policies.
For at least 15 years, Feinstein has appeared to support government contracts that push federal funds toward companies co-owned or governed by her powerful, billionaire husband, Richard C. Blum, Breitbart News reported. (Excerpt) Read more at pagesix.com ...
=====================================================
ITEM--Sen Feinstein's and her husband, Richard Blum,
became billionaires representing China's interests.
====================================================
THERE'S GOLD IN THEM THAR HILLS---Sponsored by Senator Diane Feinstein, the Desert Wilderness Protection Act and its companion bill known as the California Desert Protection Act created three new national parks and seventy- four new wilderness areas in the desert of California that total 8 million acres (an area the size of Maryland).
This closes acreage to development, forces out private owners within the protected area and closes mines and ranches. It also expands the Death Valley and Joshua Tree national monuments and upgrades them to national parks.
It seems that the real motivation for passage of this bill lies with the special interest groups that would benefit monetarily. Through a complex series of land exchanges, Catellus Corporation (Owned by none other than Richard Blum DiFI Hubby), a subsidiary of Santa Fe Pacific, will receive land that contains some of the richest gold deposits in the world.
You believed the FBI when they said the guy was a spy, didn't you?
Same treatment for the Pakistani guy that was the IT guru for about 30-something Democrats in the House. All we have heard about him for months is crickets. They are all Democrats and are protected by the Deep State.
I didn’t need the FBI for that. A Chinese national on Feinstein’s staff for 20 years; she’s the former Chair of the SSCI and now the ranking member; he’s her driver; and she and her husband have made millions on their Chinese “investments” and their relationships with Chinese and Chinese-owned businesses in the US? Well duh, of course he’s a friggin’ spy! If the roles were reversed and this had occurred in China, he’d already be worm dirt.
What I don’t believe is that the FBI “can’t determine whether he actually broke any laws”. We have this program called STELLAR WIND, which the FBI used against the Trump campaign, Mike Flynn, etc.

Support Free Republic, Folks!

The question is how hard they tried to see if there was anything....if it happened to Trump, they’d be rounding up even more folks and trying to get them to tell incriminating lies about him...
The totally INEPT, CORRUPT FBI is NOT to be believed on ANYTHING!!
