Inspector General report finds more anti-Trump agents, says James Comey was insubordinate and violated FBI procedures but was non-biased
The long-awaited Inspector General report came out today and there were some interesting tidbits in it. To start with, five FBI employees have been referred for investigation for anti-Trump messages sent during the Hillary Clinton email probe.
The Justice Department inspector general has referred five FBI employees for investigation in connection with politically charged texts, revealing in its report on the Hillary Clinton email case that more bureau officials than previously thought were exchanging anti-Trump messages.
The long-awaited report largely dealt with the Justice Department and FBI’s handling of the Clinton case but uncovered numerous messages that “appeared to mix political opinion with discussions about the MYE investigation.”
MYE, or “Midyear Exam,” was the code used in the FBI to refer to the investigation into Clinton’s private email server.
“Some of these text messages and instant messages mixed political commentary with discussions about the Midyear investigation, and raised concerns that political bias may have impacted investigative decisions,” the report read.
This is, of course, in addition to Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, who we had already known were engaged in anti-Trump messages where they discussed an “insurance policy” to stop Donald Trump. However now we have the most blatant example yet from the two lovebirds of their intention to stop Donald Trump.
Trump is ‘not ever going to become president, right? Right?!’ Page texted Strzok.
‘No. No he’s not. We’ll stop it,’ he responded.
It is quite obvious with these seven FBI employees that they let their partisanship cloud their judgement and rules out any chance they had to claim they were conducting a non-biased, non-political investigation.
Interesting enough the one person the Inspector General said did not act on political bias was James Comey, although he found the former FBI Director to have been “insubordinate” and in violation of “FBI norms.”
Here is more:
A long-awaited report by the Justice Department’s watchdog Thursday found no indication that political bias affected decisions in the FBI’s 2016 investigation into Hillary Clinton’s email server, but the review criticized agents and ex-FBI Director James Comey for violating bureau norms during the probe.
Comey was singled out for withering criticism by Inspector General Michael Horowitz, including accusations of insubordination against top Justice Department officials and of making “a serious error of judgment” in notifying Congress shortly before the 2016 election that the FBI was re-opening its Clinton email probe.
So basically James Comey did not follow FBI rules, was insubordinate, and lacked good judgement. (All fire-able offenses by the way.) But we are to expect none of this was done for political reasons. It almost reminds me of the outcome of the email investigation when James Comey listed all the reasons Hillary Clinton should be prosecuted and then recommended no charges because she was “extremely careless” and not “grossly negligent.”

But will these traitors serve jail time, real jail time?

It sounds like if the FBI and DOJ setup some workshops on the problems everthing will be fine.
I fail to believe anything the media writes about the IG report. it reminds me of their take take on Supreme Court cases. They have not read the report and have pre planned responses.

I did see somewhere that they are going to have some “anti-bias” training, what a joke that is! I don’t trust anything in the MSM either, they have their agenda and are pushing their product.
