This elected official needs her mouth washed out with soap.

Throw the two whores in cells, making it clear they’re not getting out until long after they hit The Wall, unless they start talking.

Yeah, this is good news. I just hope something comes with it because nothing ever comes of anything.

Whichever thread they pull on - we know where it will lead...right back to this bastard, McCabe, Strock, et al.

I’ve been asking the same question. Did Dunham go through the motions of impaneling a grand jury? If Bondi farms these investigations out to remote US Attorneys the way Barr did to bury them, we’d be in business.

I remember George Papadopoulos saying “honeypots” were suddenly showing interest in him

See post 35. I think we may need a carefully-considered statute here, because there will always be a sense of collegeality within the Beltway, no matter who is running it or populating Federill agencies.

It's a matter of assuring structural impartiality, and I suspect the public will see it that way. The reason for the need is that the corruption is so widespread and deep in DC, that to prosecute the number of deserving perps will necessarily be seen as political persecution unless measures are taken up front to assure fairness in the process. Besides, it will be a good excuse to relocat DOJ attorneys out of DC, and that could only be a good thing.

“She found some of them.. They are being fired”

*************

So she says. Let’s see who they were. And while she’s at it, let’s see the Epstein file that is collecting dust on her desk.

She is shaping up to be the “we’re going to” lady. So far not impressed.

Good post. Accountability and consequences are just not part of life in the DC Swamp. The Swamp protects its own.

Yes, it is way past time to investigate this, and prosecute all those involved for their illegal crimes against US citizens.

Wasn’t Comey appointed to investigate the very thing Comey was behind? The perfect closed loop treason. He belongs in Leavenworth along with Brennan, Barr, and Clapper, and Garland, and a hundred others.

“The FBI whistleblower employee noted in the disclosure that one of the undercovers agreed to be transferred to the CIA so she would not be available as a potential witness.

The other undercover employee was rewarded for her activities through a promotion in the bureau and is presently a high-level FBI executive in a major field office.”

Those two had better come forward and tell all about the operation and Comey, immediately. If not...get out the belt sander...

A new “carefully crafted” statute wouldn’t be enough. Changing venue and jurisdiction would require a Constitutional amendment. Article 3, Section 2 reads as follows:

“The trial of all crimes, except in cases of impeachment, shall be by jury; and such trial shall be held in the state where the said crimes shall have been committed; but when not committed within any state, the trial shall be at such place or places as the Congress may by law have directed.”

Considering that the demoncraps tried Trump in D.C. for a supposed crime in Florida.. I think we should try them in a court in Texas or Oklahoma.

Unless they bring charges against Comey this will be a one-day story.

This administration needs to be ruthless.
