What is the name of the agent?
Yawn.....coup members in handcuffs. Otherwise, it’s just PR to keep Deplorables from being disgusted.
“one of the FBI agents said to him, ‘this is what happens when you work for Donald Trump.’”
He’s obviously one of the vast majority of good field agents Hannity always talks about.
will we ever find out who decided to hold back the info from the IG. Seems like that would be illegal.
More talk talk talk, and Trump and Barr still will not indict. What failure.
Rurroh. There are few counts of felony and conspiracy per conspirator in that one, everyone from the secretary who had access to the file to the top of the FBI.
I’ll take this seriously when the IG speaks for his own self.
In other words, “they” conspired to entrap a U.S. citizen or as Dan Bongino says - this was a classic push-pull operation. They pushed the info to an individual and then used a separate person to pull it from him thereby creating the impression of a crime. They used the push-pull to justify surveillance. It may have been unwittingly (incompetent) at first, but they doubled down on it later after they had to know or suspect they had been played and they were very willing to do it (bias and criminal intent).
It really is that simple although I have started thinking that the FBI was thoroughly played and used by the intelligence world by design to start it. The same information from the same source (Steele) to state, CIA through our 5-eyes partners and directly, the MSM, the top echelon of the DOJ, and the FBI. The FBI never dug into it enough to understand the same confidential source or informant with a different number for each agency was planting the same information everywhere he could. They even used media stories to corroborate the intelligence without considering their source was also talking to the media.
Will anything happen about this beyond a few media types writing books? I don’t know. The past 2 years does not give me much hope, but at least we can see what Barr does now. If past performance is a predictor of the future we are right to be skeptical. I hope that Trump is waiting for the IG report to drop and it is everything it should be.... Going after his kids was a big mistake for a GOP chairman and the left and media.
The point initially was to frame Trump, get an FBI investigation started, leak to the media that Trump was under investigation and then use Congress (Harry Reid, etc) to confirm the FBI investigation, all before Election Day.
You see, that would even the score: Hillary was under FBI investigation, and Trump was under FBI investigation. That’s how Hillary’s corrupt and amoral mind works.
They already knew Comey was corrupt because Comey was willing to play along with the ‘fixing’ of the Hillary email investigation even though she was obviously guilty of numerous crimes.
After Trump’s victory shocked everyone on Team Hillary, then they saw that perhaps they could use the fabricated FBI investigation to somehow force Trump from office.
Hi, billorites-!
As much as I would really, really, like to see all those vile folks punished, I have a problem with leaking of any information from an investigation.
We need to hold ourselves to standards, especially if we hold others to those standards from which we exempt ourselves.
Sigh.
For two years, “sources” have informed the MSM that there was Russian collusion with the Trump campaign. That turned out to be bull.
Now diGenova apparently has a source telling him that the last three FISA requests were determined to be illegal. I hope we don’t get hung out to dry like the viewers of MSNBC and CNN or the readers of the NYTimes and Wash Post did.
Toensing’s story sounds a little too far-fetched, which makes me nervous about the whole story.
Bttt.

Joe better start having some of his predictions come true, or else he will turn into Judge Nappy.....but I do love Joe!~
Joe diGenova should stop leaking this stuff. Let the IG and AG do their jobs, followed by US Marshalls. We don’t need the “press” in on it.
Let’s not play this “speculation” game. B- or even C-level media people chiming in like it matters.
Even if true, nothing will happen to the perpetrators. Maybe if a republican was responsible, but we all know that the law doesn’t apply to the other side.
Was this a "rank and file" guy?
FBI was a bit cheap and too obvious. $10,000 is the threshold for declaring cash brought into the US, so they just hit the magic number.
On Thursday, Solomon reported that newly unearthed memos show that a high-ranking government official from the Obama State Department met with former British spy Christopher Steele in October of 2016, and figured out pretty quickly that his dossier was a political hit job intended to slime Donald Trump on behalf of Hillary Clinton’s campaign.
Can someone please explain why the IGs office needs some reporter to turn up evidence for them?
