CNN’s Phil Mudd: FBI’s ‘Ticked’ at Trump Over Memo and They’re ‘Going to Win’ in End
Mediaite ^ | 3 Feb 18 | Justin Baragona

Posted on 02/03/2018 5:56:08 PM PST by SkyPilot

CNN counterterrorism analyst Phil Mudd is known for making provocative on-air remarks and generally being fired up during segments. A CNN appearance on Friday, however, may end up being his most notorious yet.

Hours after the controversial Nunes memo dropped, Mudd indicated that the FBI was going to take matters into its own hands and make sure they eventually come out on top in a head-to-head battle with the president. With the FBI and its director already making their objections to the memo — which purports to show FISA abuses within the Russia probe — crystal clear before its release, Mudd said that agents at the bureau are angry and will stop President Donald Trump from dismantling the Russia investigation.

“The workforce will look at this and say this is an attack on our ability to conduct an investigation with integrity,” he exclaimed during a CNN panel discussion. “There are hundreds of agents and analysts working. This not just Christopher Wray, the FBI director.”

He continued, “So I’m going to tell you the FBI people are ticked. If you think you can push us off this because you can intimidate the director, you’d better think again. You’ve been around for 13 months. We’ve been around since 1908. I know how this game is going to be played. We’re going to win.”

I would argue all alphabet agencies need total levelling and many, not ever rebuilding or replacing again.

At least we still have this one:

There is a reason that President Trump has surrounded himself with uniformed military, retired military officers, and military advisors.

The military has the President's back and is protecting him. And if one of these clown "agencies" thinks otherwise, they are welcome to Press to Test.

Wow! He’s telling us how the FBI works. If they come close to taking out our leader, every freakin’ dime needs to be cut off. And that should be just the beginning.

make sure they eventually come out on top in a head-to-head battle with the president.


In civil society, that would be like Buick taking on General Motors. Does not compute. What it implies is that elections don’t matter; federal employees run the government.

People forget the CIA was Trump’s first stop as President. It was a great speech, talked about the “columns” and he didn’t mean the columns in the room.

I saw a short clip where that guy even talked about people in the IC maybe KILLING Trump.

I have no doubt it is not only being considered, but they have plans.

And it is not just Trump they are targeting.

CNN boasting about this if it’s something good but all it doesn’t show that the FBI is a rogue agency who thinks it’s okay to use the power of law enforcement to be lawless and corrupt and think they don’t have to answer to anybody.
