The archive people are supposed to KNOW where every doc is. THEY are the ones to blame for docs that are found at Trumps and at biden’s. They should all be fired. Their job is to KNOW where every doc is. And what abt Hillary’s e-mails? If these docs are so important why do they let them leave the WH at ALL?

Truth is they wanted to GET Trump. They never before CARED abt this until the dems wanted Trump. DEM FAIL.

EVERY pres has taken classified docs. Obama supposedly took 30,000 docs to “digitize” them for his library. Last I heard he had not yet digitized 1. Hillary took 33,000 and the archive people never went apoplectic. See it was never important and now it has come back to bite the dems in the butt. The ARCHIVE people are at fault. It is their JOB to know where all these papers are. If they let obamer and hillary go they better just let biden and Trump go too.

Former FBI Assistant Director Chris Swecker is imploring the agency to reverse its drift toward politicization, saying its recent cultural shift is eating away at its mission and public trust.

He's dreaming if he thinks they will even pay him any attention whatsoever.

Ivy League men and women are not in touch with Americans. Get rid of the likes of Strzk, which is pronounced “Sterzick”, and not “Strock”. That was a gimmick to hide his background. He is mentally ill.

Well, Mr. Swecker, I think that horse has already bolted the barn. The only remedy remaining is what JFK suggested for the CIA.

I hope he’s prepared for 10 years worth of tax audits.

The communist when we were growing up were easy to identify. They were the ones located over there in Russia, China, North Korea, etc.

But the reality today is that they are now over here as well.

What’s his hurry. He waited this long. Why not another
ten to twenty years?

Ever wonder who took over after Strzok was canned? Supervisory Intelligence Analyst Brian Auten. And he ran Crossfire Hurricane until last year!

And he, Supervisory Intelligence Analyst Brian Auten, was the chief of the Trump Mar-a-Lago raid.

This is THE guy.

From the article:

Auten has been allowed to work on sensitive cases even though he has been under internal investigation since 2019, when Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz referred him for disciplinary review for his role in vetting a Hillary Clinton campaign-funded dossier used by the FBI to obtain a series of wiretap warrants to spy on former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.

Horowitz singled out Auten for cutting a number of corners in the verification process and even allowing information he knew to be incorrect slip into warrant affidavits and mislead the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act court.

The FBI knew RussiaGate was a lie — but hid that truth In congressional testimony this month, Wray confirmed that “a number of” former Crossfire Hurricane team members are still employed at the bureau while undergoing disciplinary review. In the meantime, Wray has walled off the former Russiagate investigators only from participating in FISA wiretap applications, according to the sources.

Sen. Chuck Grassley, the ranking Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, has asked Wray for copies of recent case files and reports generated by Auten and whether he is included among the team the FBI has assembled to determine which of the seized Trump records fall within the scope of its counterespionage investigation and which fall outside of it.

“It is a disgrace that Auten is still even employed by the bureau,” said 27-year FBI veteran Michael Biasello. “I would substitute other analysts and agents.”

I wouldn't be surprised to learn the Biden Document Special Prosecutor Hur uses Auten to do his gumshoe investigating and interviewing for him. Until something is done about this guy and Wray gets fired, well... No peace, no justice.

Although the Patriot Act established the erosion of civil liberties, the fast forward came with this:

1. As evidenced with AG Sessions recusal out of thin air and Barr’s refusing to defend a Federal courthouse under attack for 100+ days (Portland), and not classify them as as “domestic terrorists”, it’s safe to assume the GOP has been checkmated. Bear in mind the Judiciary IS THE LAST BACKSTOP to our Republic.

2. Where feasible, form local alliances with LE organizations/like minded believers.

3. All electronic communications is monitored. No FISA court needed.

You are absolutely correct, except for stating that the GOP has been checkmated. The reality is that they are working in concert with the communist movement, or more accurately a vast number of them are.

Like the communist march through our culture, both political parties were also included in that march. They were just as involved in stopping Joseph McCarthy as were the Democrats. Otherwise, McCarthy would not have been as vilified as he was.

They are richly rewarded.

Just like they did nothing about Twitter and Facebook censoring one Political Party.

Musk did what he did in his own.

The clintons and the democrat party are most responsible. The same people since the clintons arrived in Washington are still there.

“the type of recruit they’re bringing in is more opinionated, more idealistic, more liberal . . . ,” he said. “And they tend to not just follow the facts. They tend to insert their own ideologies, their own opinions”

Again: “they tend to not just follow the facts”
