Obama’s Justice Dept. feuded with FBI, agents quit as politics played larger role
The Washington Times ^ | April 16, 2018 | Jeff Mordock

Acrimony between the FBI and the Justice Department was so bad in the waning days of the Obama administration that some agents quit the bureau in frustration, a former G-man says.

Fractures which began during the tenure of former Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. deepened in the later years, and particularly in the run-up to the 2016 president election.

The depths of the antagonism were exposed in an inspector general’s report last week looking into former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, who was fired from the FBI earlier this year for misleading multiple investigations. While saying Mr. McCabe lacked candor in questioning, some of it under oath, the report went much deeper, describing the rift between the bureau and its political masters at the department.

“Holder and Lynch totally politicized the Justice Department,” said Hans von Spakovsky, a former Justice Department attorney who now works with The Heritage Foundation. “There was no compunction about interfering with a criminal investigation.”

Comey worked with Holder and Lynch to politicize and corrupt the FBI.

All three should be in prison.

Seeing that picture of Obama and Holder embedded in the article makes me sick. THAT, is the face of racism, and the belief that no matter how you do it (’transform America’), it's justified.

Democrats are members of the Democrat syndicate first.

Being an American is way down on their list.

Yes, and Comey’s talk about “mob boss” is pure transference/projection. Clinton was the true mob boss and omerta was enforced (Rich, and the many other bodies littered around Hillary.

The WaTimes story dovetails with yesterday’s report that Lynch threatened the NYPD with a “civil rights” criminal prosecution over the death of that cigarette-seller who was strangled back in 2014 or so.

The NYPD did NOT want that prosecution, so they stopped their investigation of Weiner’s laptop contents—which had plenty of criminal activity documented—by Hillary, Weiner, Abedin, and “other Democrat Members of Congress.”

Hmmmmmm.

“Mob Boss” Indeed transference from his days working the Gambino circuit. I think his only work was with Gotti.

Let’s be clear here. We are talking about framing a sitting POTUS with lots of help from foreign nationals. I don’t give two sh*ts if the foreign nationals are Allies. It’s HIGH TREASON.
