- FBI agents are horrified that President Donald Trump promoted a baseless conspiracy theory on Twitter suggesting the Clinton family was involved in the death of the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.
- The Justice Department announced that Epstein died by "apparent suicide" and there is no evidence that the conspiracy theory Trump retweeted has any merit.
- "The Epstein case was hypercharged from the get-go," one current FBI agent, who requested anonymity to freely discuss Trump's actions, told INSIDER.
- "The last thing investigators need is the president of the United States fanning the flames with these bulls--- theories that have no basis in reality."
- Another agent told INSIDER that Trump's actions make the FBI's job harder as it combats homegrown extremism, particularly after its latest finding that conspiracy theories pose a new domestic-terrorism threat.
- "It's not hyperbole to say that when the president makes up these stories or promotes stories made up by others he's putting innocent lives at risk," said one former senior Justice Department official.

Anonymous source is BS. It gives just as much ‘cover’ to the so-called journalist as it does to the informant.
1) The journalist can seek multiple sources, promise them all anonymity, and then just write the article according to the source that best conforms to what they want to write.
2) The source could be entirely made up
3) The source could lie completely knowing he/she will be anonymous
4) plenty of other fakeries.
Anonymous sourcing of quotes is not journalism it is fiction.

Strange how the FBI is only livid when hillary is accused of something. What could be their motivation?

"Are those same FBI agents livid that it took SIX WEEKS after arresting Epstein to raid his Pedo Island for evidence????"
Is it the six weeks it took, or the fact they waited until he was dead?

Just watched WACO TV Series now on Paramount TV. Not FBI finest hour, by any means. Day One, FBI 75 member Swat team, shot first, killing the dogs. The they shot indiscriminately into a building containing women and children. ( Even after they were warned that they had lost the element of surprise.)
Day 51, FBI used tanks to inject flammable gas into the buildings, including a brick shelter where all the women and children became trapped. The show listed ten instances where injecting gas resulted in a huge fire.
Most Americans have no idea what happened at WACO.

Lets be reasonable. Epstein had been at this a long time, so it took a long time to clean up/out the place so that the FBI could show up and find nothing.

And after perpetuating the Trump-Russia Collusion hoax for two years, the FIB knows a baseless conspiracy theory when they see one.

I think the correct question would be , who had Seth Rich killed.
To: TomServo
If we all hadn't just spent the last two years learning how the FBI concocted a fake story of "Russian collusion" to cover up spying on the Trump campaign the un-named FBI source who complained about "bulls--- theories that have no basis in reality" might get some sympathy.
But since the FBI embraced "bulls--- theories that have no basis in reality" a couple of years ago, they just have to accept how they are viewed now.
