FBI Deputy Director admits agency redacted mentions of Joe and Hunter Biden audio recordings in documents given to Republicans

Just in case you had any faith left in our federal governing and law enforcement agencies, let me go ahead and douse out that final flicker of hope.

FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate admitted Tuesday the FBI redacted mention of audio recordings of Joe and Hunter Biden in a document shown last week to Republican lawmakers in which an FBI informant alleged the Bidens were involved in a bribery scheme. (The document is unclassified).

So, Chuck Grassley let us know about the reality of audio recordings of the Biden's taking bribes from Burisma. But the crazy part isn't the recordings. The crazy part is that the FBI also knew about the alleged recordings but when they reported the facts to Congress they purposefully left that part out.

Watch Marsha Blackburn grill FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate:

VIDEO AT LINK............

Abbate: We often redact documents to protect sources and methods.

Blackburn: So you chose to redact the fact that there are 17 voice recordings, two of those with the now President, you chose to redact that and not give it to house oversight.

Abbate: I have no idea if there are voice recordings or not. What I will tell you... the document was redacted to protect the source.

Abbate was absolutely smoked by Blackburn. It's clear to anyone paying attention that the FBI is completely corrupt.

How does the fact that these audio recordings exist implicate a source at all? And who are they trying to protect this source from? Biden and his cronies? Surely not.

The point is the FBI knew that these recordings exist, according to their own source, but didn't tell that info to Congress because their loyalties are to the Democrats and Joe Biden.

Weaponization of the justice system is the mark of a dying civilization. This whole rot must be cleaned out of the federal government by the root.

Yes, sure, but unless address the reason that our civilization is dying, then the next set of guys you give power to will just become corrupt in short order as well. Treat the disease, not the symptoms.

They turned this country into a banana republic that is no different then a corrupt African country. We have a totally corrupt puppet sitting in the white house being protected by thoroughly corrupt law enforcement. The same corrupt players are trying to put the leading presidential contender in prison on trumped up charges. This blatant corruption is outrageous. Trump is the cleanest president/politician in decades. He is a thousand times cleaner then the assholes going after him.

You can view the whole session. I do that and then redact the democrat parts. It’s easy to see on the video who’s turn to question. Same session has Josh Hawley near the end.

“Weaponization of the justice system is the mark of a dying civilization.”

One of the most historically accurate observations that I have ever seen posted here.

Once again we have an FBI leader who gets all flustered when he is called out and refuses to answer questions, just like Strzok, same playbook.

The United States of Pakistan:

- persecution of political opponents
- gross corruption of the ruling class
- anti-blasphemy laws (against trannies in the US and Christians in Pak)

Everyone should watch this hearing as did I. My reaction was that Paul Abbate is a Peter Strzok clone - same sneering attitude. He made my skin crawl.

Also, I’ve watched Josh Hawley in several hearings, and I am very favorably impressed. I think he’s going to be a force to be reckoned with.

Grassley obviously has a copy of the document that was provided by the whistleblower. The FBI has let them look at the redacted original, so Grassley should release the copy he has so that everyone can look at it.
