And no prosecution so the Deep State continues to cover up their crimes.

This looks like the investigation into McCabe. I don’t understand why it’s coming out today.

People in high office who commit crimes should not be let off with light wrist slaps. Instead they should receive the most extreme punishment possible as a warning to others in high office not to commit crimes against the citizenry.

Any photos of Coup members being hauled away in handcuffs? Y-A-W-N Another traitor who got away with it!

When Washington was fighting the Revolutionary War, there were traitors in his inner security circle that had a plot to eliminate. Just sayin'.....they hung the one who was found guilty.

I thought the OIG didn’t make filing decisions, just recommendations.

This seems to be the pertinent reference from page 430 of the OIG Report, which does not name individuals”

“although FBI policy strictly limits the employees who are authorized to speak to the media, we found that this policy appeared to be widely ignored during the period we reviewed (April/May and October 2016). 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. The large number of FBI employees who were in contact with journalists during this time period impacted our ability to identify the sources of leaks. For example, during the periods we reviewed, we identified dozens of FBI employees that had contact with members of the media. Attached to this report as Attachments G and H are link charts that reflects the volume of communications that we identified between FBI employees and media representatives in April/May and October 2016.”

“Prosecution of the DAD was declined.”

Could this mean that the IG referred the DAD to the DOJ for prosecution (given that the IG had determined him guilty of the offenses, as stated), but that DOJ declined to prosecute?

If the IG can’t prosecute, as someone asserted here earlier, that would be about the only reading that makes sense, no?

And if DOJ declined to prosecute a deputy assistant director for clear violations, perhaps that’s because they used the threat of prosecution to get the DAD to provide evidence or testimony regarding crimes by higher ups?

How was this released? Did someone just find it in a pile of government announcements, or did a press release accompany it?
