EXCLUSIVE: Fired FBI official authorized criminal probe of Sessions, sources say

By Mike Levine

Mar 21, 2018, 4:01 PM ET

Nearly a year before Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired senior FBI official Andrew McCabe for what Sessions called a "lack of candor," McCabe oversaw a federal criminal investigation into whether Sessions lacked candor when testifying before Congress about contacts with Russian operatives, sources familiar with the matter told ABC News.

Progressives are bound and determined to turn the DOJ into the KGP.
**************************************************
They’ve already reached the Stasi level. I see nothing that Sessions is doing to turn that around.

We are deep into coup d’etat territory.

Yes, and we are still in it.

The seditionists and traitors (and treason is applicable here because foreign governments and foreign enemies are involved with this attempted coup) need to be arrested, tried, convicted, incarerated, and some need to be executed.

The Law and the Constitution is very clear on this. Article III, section 3 of the Constitution, and 18 U.S. Code § 2381 - Treason:

Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

The Deep State and our domestic enemies have collaborated with foreign enemies in their quest to usurp our duly elected President.

And yes, that is Treason.

Treason is the only crime defined in the US Constitution, becaues treason endangers the entire nation and affects every citizen.

I don’t care how the DNC media want to spin this.

The FBI spied on a sitting U.S. senator who happened to be associated with the Trump campaign.

Think about it. Schumer, McCaskill, Leahy, McCain and other senators met with the same Russian officials.
Snowden was correct, the FBI, CIA and NSA spy on everyone (making both Klapper and Brennan liars).

The swamp must be drained or there will be civil war.

You are absolutely correct. Not something a human can defeat on their own.

Because once the corrupt agents and minions of the Deep State committed their crimes, accepted their bribes, violated their oaths to the Constitution, and committed sedition - they crossed the Rubicon. There is no going back.

The existential threat is Trump - and they have to take him down in order to save their own worthless hides.

Even Levin is speechless about his good buddy Jeff Magoo. I accidentally caught a portion of his show yesterday when a caller was asking why Sessions doesn’t do anything. Why he doesn’t convene grand juries...’That’s a good question. I don’t know’, Levin said with the utmost disgust.

Agreed. Makes your head spin! I honestly don’t know how Trump does all he does with all of this crap going on around him.

We may have one anyway.

But the US military will not be on the side of the Left and the Traitors.

Go watch "Lincoln" on Netflix tonight. Marvelous film, and incredible performance by Daniel Day Lewis. Lincoln had to exhibit immense courage during that time, and we must find the same courage within us.

The draining process is presently civil war that will escalate to blood shed.

The good part is that progressive cities will be burned to ashes when the riots begin

There is no law against spying on the US from outside the US.

If we willingly give other countries our innermost telecom information to review, that is, sadly, apparently also legal.

Buereaucrats have plausible deniability of what is found out because they never singled out anyone for monitoring and no single agency approved it.

It just “is” and that is why we all should be scared out of our pants.

And Naturally the FBI was all over things when James Clapper outright lied to Congress?

But of course Mueller, Weissman and Rhee are above all that and have no one to review their sterling lives and exemplary behavior.

I know people and lawyers that had to deal with Weissman. He is so corrupt it would make your head spin. (He is also a closet homosexual, but that is almost an aside to his greater evil).

The man is a megalomaniac who believes he is a law unto himself. Weissman would have men thrown into the "hole" (solitary confinement) who would not cooperate and agree in a court to his lies. He would go after wives, children, family members, friends - whomever he could destroy, he would.

Deep state doesn’t investigate deep state.

Tells us Sessions not deep state.

______________

True, just tells us that Sessions is clueless.

"Why are all these FBI crap only going after the Republicans and not one dimocRAT?"

They ARE demoncrats-leftists. The rabid left are in firm control of our 4 trillion dollar corrupt stasi state and are in open rebellion to Trump and the rule of law. See the contribution list below...You can imagine the voting margin for Hillary rotten Clinton was 100% within the margin of error. That's called TOTAL CORRUPTION!

Contribution percentages given to Hillary Rotten Clinton by departments listed below(From breitbart 9/26/2016) 28 years of bushes, clintons, and o'muslims really took it's toll.

Like the DOJ [97 percent], other government agencies’ workers’ donations are similarly heavily tilted in Clinton’s direction. An astounding 99.4 percent of government workers at the U.S. Department of Agriculture who made donations gave to Clinton over Trump, and the percentages were similar across the rest of government: 98.2 percent at the Department of Commerce, 84 percent at the Department of Defense, 99.7 percent at the Department of Education, 95 percent at the Department of Energy, 96 percent at the Department of Health and Human Services, 90 percent at the Department of Homeland Security, 96 percent at the Department of Housing and Urban Development, 94 percent at the IRS, 99.4 percent at the Department of Labor, 99 percent at the State Department, 95 percent at the Department of Treasury, and 88 percent at the Department of Veterans Affairs.

As does his seriously spook-y wife.

But note, there’s a lot of buzz that he’s turned on Comey.

Gee, where was the investigation into Holder, before he lied to Congress while under oath about what he knew about targeting reporters, he lied about Fast and Furious. As early as the New Black Panthers case, Eric Holder had a problem with the truth.

Director Clapper lied under oath to Congress in 2013, where was the investigation into Clapper?

Director Brennan lied when he said “Let me assure you the CIA was in no way spying on [the committee] or the Senate”, where was the investigation into Brennan?
>

Might wish to ask Congress or, more specially, the (R)N(C) (Sessions) why the ‘opposition’ was so quiet day after day, year after year...I don’t recall ANYTHING, but the short-lived/occasional ‘yip-yip’.
