FBI leaders going full “we were just following orders” as accountability for turning the agency into a full-time Anti-Trump operation looms.
...
Julie Kelly. = Expecting a bloodbath at FBI today and tomorrow. My guess is acting FBI director Brian Driscoll will be gone by this evening for defying a direct order seeking names of FBI employees—perhaps more than 6,000—involved in Jan 6 cases.
Hard to see how James Dennehy, who runs the NY field office, keeps his job after sending defiant email to colleagues over the weekend promising to “dig in” and not step down or follow orders.
The NYT obtained the email.
Dennehy: “Today, we find ourselves in the middle of a battle of our own, as good people are being walked out of the F.B.I. and others are being targeted because they did their jobs in accordance with the law and F.B.I. policy,” Dennehy wrote.
Dennehy also said the removal of top officials including at Miami and Washington field offices have caused “fear and angst within the F.B.I. ranks.”
He compared his insubordination to being a Marine “in the early 1990s, when he dug a small foxhole five feet deep and hunkered down for safety.
“It sucked,” he wrote. “But it worked.”
Don’t think this is going to end well for Mr. Dennehy.
...
Also it’s unclear whether every FBI employee who worked on Jan 6 “terrorism” cases will be fired. My guess is many will be asked to take their “terrorism” expertise down to the southern border or other locations where real terror threats exist.

The FBI under Democratic rule became a full-blown Deep State cartel - protecting cronies, crushing dissent, and weaponizing justice against political enemies. Now, as the rot gets exposed, the insubordinate foot soldiers are squealing about ‘fear and angst.’ Sorry Dennehy, you’re not a war hero, you’re just another bureaucratic thug who thought his badge made him untouchable. Pack your

Did their jobs "in accordance with the law?" Oh? Like PLANTING EVIDENCE? Showing up in full SWAT gear raiding J6ers in front of their children?
Raiding Roger Stone in the middle of the night with CNN in tow? Categorizing parents as terrorists? Labeling "right wing" as terrorists while ignoring BLM and Antifa violence -WHERE ARE THOSE RAIDS?
FBl needs to be shut down.
...
J6 was a protest for a rigged election.
The FBI should have been going after the lawbreakers in 6 swing states.
...
"Just following orders"
...
That defense, often referred to as "just following orders," was notably used during the Nuremberg Trials after World War II.
They should have resisted their anti-American bosses and not committed the crimes they were told to commit.
“Just following orders”
Except the whistleblowers who were promptly destroyed by the FBI.
Sieg Heil!!
Let’s see how that argument holds up.
Arrest them.
The “just following orders” group will be ordered to sing like songbirds and rat out their fellow Gestapo members.
Let us see how many follow orders then.
Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)
Saul Alinsky
Send each a transcript of the Nuremberg Trials.
New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy just bragged that he has an illegal alien living above his garage, adding “good luck to the feds coming in to try to get her.” How exactly is that good for this person to be staked out / political game to make a point?...
If Murphy wanted to help this person, why would he parade her location and position in an interview to thrill his base? There is something in Matthew 6:3 that might be usual for Murphy ... ~Jonathan Turley
Pretty much a tacit admission that they were breaking the law, persecuting Americans that Democrats don’t like and violating the civil rights of the American people.
Funny how they “just follow orders” when they identify with the administration giving them. The sec they don’t? It’s “resistance” don’t cha know.
Hmmm, the Nazis: “Ve vere chust following ze orders.”
The Biden FBI: “We were just following orders.”
See, no comparison whatsoever between Democrats and Nazis.
He compared his insubordination to being a Marine “in the early 1990s, when he dug a small foxhole five feet deep and hunkered down for safety
He was an Officer in Combat Engineers from 93 and 96, and then a recruiter in Springfield Mass. Was deployed at some point to Haiti and Liberia.
This clown makes it sound like he was in Verdun.
When I was with 7th Engineer Support Battalion in the USMC they can in with back hoes and dropped a plywood fighting hole in. Yeah, that is rough. I feel for him.
“Did their jobs “in accordance with the law?” Oh? Like PLANTING EVIDENCE? Showing up in full SWAT gear raiding J6ers in front of their children?”
He’s a fag. Those warrants could have been served by two clean cut men in sport coats and concealed revolvers.
Go ahead and tell the outside of the door. BYE
FBI Agt. “I’ve spied, lied and stole for the Bureau but by gawd I’ve always kept my integrity”.
FU FBI.
