Attorney General Jeff Sessions names prosecutor to investigate FBI allegations.
CNBC ^ | March 29, 2018 | Christine Wang

Posted on 03/29/2018 3:43:35 PM PDT by carson_conservative

Attorney General Jeff Sessions designated U.S. attorney John Huber as the prosecutor tasked with looking into allegations of abuse of power at the FBI.

In a Thursday letter to Congress, Sessions said this appointment was made in response to requests for a special counsel investigation of the claims. The attorney general said, however, that Huber will be the one determining "whether any matters merit the appointment of a special counsel....In his letter, Sessions said he will take the necessary actions to defend the integrity of the Justice Department and its work.

"We understand that the Department is not above criticism and it can never be that the Department conceals errors when they occur," Sessions wrote.

The attorney general said he expects the department's staff to operate with the "highest level of integrity, ethic, and professionalism."

"If anyone falls short of these standards, I will fulfill my responsibility to take necessary action to protect the integrity of our work," he said.

Sessions is thin-skinned.. He has a grudge against President Trump for telling him to do his job.. Now Jeffy is getting even... Or maybe he’s been a _creep in sheeps clothing_all along.. I think the latter.

No. Huber is a U.S. Attorney. He has mandate and authority to gather evidence, including subpoena power, empanel grand juries, and file charges if he concludes crimes have been committed.

Where did you come up with that notion? It was NOT in Sessions letter.

According to American Intelligence Media, Huber (along with Mueller & Rosenstein) is SES (Senior Executive Service, aka, Shadow Gov’t).

Reporting for duty. Hubert has been on board since July 2017. Bet you didn't know that. And why didn't you know that? BECAUSE THERE WERE NO LEAKS. Think about that, how tight a ship Sessions runs. I'm impatient for the charges and indictments, too.

Did you see how the Muslim wife of the Pulse shooter walk? The problem was how the criminal charges were filed. Somebody got in too big a hurry.

Repeat: no leaks. Sessions started out promising he'd go after leakers. Like James Comey. Eventually, Mueller too.

Deadly serious.

Why have 12 military tribunals been meeting for nearly two months?

Why do those tribunals seat twelve (12) officers instead of the usual nine (9)?

What can a 12-man tribunal do that a 9-man cannot do?

What's happening at Gitmo?

MI info is available if you know where to look. There are threads on FR that are in the MI loop...

The ignorance of (even!) most FReepers is appalling. Much of it is willful ignorance.
:-(

Not as bad as those sheeple who only feed on MSM -- but so much more is available to FReepers who do not shut their eyes...

I am just curious, what is the actual evidence of these facts you report? I dont mean secret messages, coded Q riddles, etc. Have these facts been reported by any legitimate reputable source? I have never read that there are secret military tribunals formed for an unknown purpose. Nor have I read that GITMO is being prepared for an influx of americans.

I deal in facts. It seems to me that those alleged facts need to be proved before you get to the next logical question which is what do these facts mean.

Until their is some credible proof of your stated facts I dont assume that most folks will be too concerned.

If you have some information I would certainly be interested in learning.

How 2nd Special Counsel Would Have Exposed Rosenstein/Comey Pact ...

What is really going on with AG Sessions not appointing a second special counsel - The Deep State is covering its own ass, as usual ... An intelligent opinion offered by a man well-experienced in reading the political winds:

https://www.pscp.tv/w/1DXGyXVOpmNKM

Sessions is as worthless as tits on a bull. There is no “white hat” in this latest development - and the outcome is bad on all sides for Trump. If you are a Twitter user, then I strongly recommend you follow Adam Gingrich - the “John Wicks of Politics.”

Great meme. When/IF he finishes slow-walking\delegating everything, and those floodgates open (should they ever), you can look me up again.

Until then, Keebler Magoo hasn’t done SQUAT worth a tinker’s damn.

In other words, there is no legitimate sources you can point to where readily available information exists that proves your thesis.

I am not interested in all the anon Q and similar nonsense.

The burden of persuasion is on you since you are the one publishing all these fantastical (and as yet unverified) claims. Thus normal rational people have to assume that there really is nothing valid to all of this.

Convincing you is not my burden, nor is correcting your personal laziness and your willful ignorance.

Actually, friend, the person who is the proponent of a theory bears the burden of proof, not the rest of us who you are trying to persuade.

Nothing posted is “fantastic.”

It needs not be posted to this thread to be real.

Its out there for all who care to observe. If you care not that is your loss, not ours.

Amen!

If you post everything that is out there, you’ll be accused of “hijacking the thread.”

With all due respect, most rational folks consider claims of death penalty military tribunals for civilians, alleged preparations for incarcerating civilians in gitmo, 20000 secret indictments....all of this unverified, supposedly secret claims are fantastical. Since all of this runs contrary to the Us Constitution ,if true as alleged by the spreaders of this supposed information.

It may normal to the conspiracy buffs but others, not so much.

Look closely at FR compared to a few years ago. The kook stuff has driven off actual amateur sleuthing using things like LexisNexis. The fake stuff is only very timidly being called out these days, if called out at all.

I get up each day and look outside to judge the weather, then maybe check the local radar. As far as other things being empirical, I carry a little mental mirror like James Coburn in 'Charade' to check the dead body. I am so sick of all the foggy verbiage that I stop listening and/or reading mid sentence.
