“This is getting confusing. Trump appointed Wrey as FBI Director. Is Wrey back stabbing Trump too? How about Mike Pompeo? Director of the CIA, he’s been real quiet and under the radar. I wonder who’s side he’s on. Who is in charge of the NSA now, and is he/she loyal to the american people and Trump?”
My theory is (and you can’t dissuade me of it) is that as each new incoming director/head, etc. of a Dept. comes into office (like CIA, NSA, FBI, etc.) they are sat down by the surrounding bureaucratic 2nd layer flunkies who have been there forever, and told by inference what the various bureau’s, dept’s have on them dirt-wise. From that point on, the new heads are compromised and held hostage to the Dept’s they now head. In other words, blackmail. Hence their silence (Jeff Sessions is a prime example). Wanna bet I’m right?
Sessions, Rosenstein, Boyd and Wray are hapless prisoners of their bureaucracies.
They would have known about the missing texts since August. But they did nothing except take the word of their bureaucrats that the texts were “nonrecoverable”.
When the OIG’s own people were allowed to try to recover texts, they did in two days what the FBI could not do in 7 months !
I want to know if the OIG requested if his people could attempt to recover texts prior to this week.
And I want to now if the FBI/DOJ refused permission.
If they did refuse permission, Sessions, Rosenstein, Wray and Boyd should all be FIRED !
Not all are blackmailed. Look at the huge amount of good work done by Pruitt at the EPA. Pompeo at CIA is probably fine too, not heard of because the CIA is not supposed to deal with domestic affairs.
As to Wray, he was more a Christie’s pick than a Trump’s pick and he behavior so far has been despicable. Just less despicable than Sessions’.
