Good morning!

From the Guardian:

Highly unfavorable view of Hillary Clinton intensified after James Comey’s decision not to recommend an indictment over her use of a private email server

Deep antipathy to Hillary Clinton exists within the FBI, multiple bureau sources have told the Guardian, spurring a rapid series of leaks damaging to her campaign just days before the election.

Current and former FBI officials, none of whom were willing or cleared to speak on the record, have described a chaotic internal climate that resulted from outrage over director James Comey’s July decision not to recommend an indictment over Clinton’s maintenance of a private email server on which classified information transited.

“The FBI is Trumpland,” said one current agent.

This atmosphere raises major questions about how Comey and the bureau he is slated to run for the next seven years can work with Clinton should she win the White House.

The currently serving FBI agent said Clinton is “the antichrist personified to a large swath of FBI personnel,” and that “the reason why they’re leaking is they’re pro-Trump.”

The agent called the bureau “Trumplandia”, with some colleagues openly discussing voting for a GOP nominee who has garnered unprecedented condemnation from the party’s national security wing and who has pledged to jail Clinton if elected.

At the same time, other sources dispute the depth of support for Trump within the bureau, though they uniformly stated that Clinton is viewed highly unfavorably.

“There are lots of people who don’t think Trump is qualified, but also believe Clinton is corrupt. What you hear a lot is that it’s a bad choice, between an incompetent and a corrupt politician,” said a former FBI official.

Sources who disputed the depth of Trump’s internal support agreed that the FBI is now in parlous political territory. Justice department officials – another current target of FBI dissatisfaction – have said the bureau disregarded longstanding rules against perceived or actual electoral interference when Comey wrote to Congress to say it was reviewing newly discovered emails relating to Clinton’s personal server.

Comey’s vague letter to Congress, promptly leaked by Republican congressman Jason Chaffetz, said the bureau would evaluate communications – subsequently identified as coming from a device used by disgraced ex-congressman Anthony Weiner, whose estranged wife Huma Abedin is a Clinton aide – for connections to the Clinton server. Comey’s allies say he was placed in an impossible position after previously testifying to Congress it would take an extraordinary development for him to revisit the Clinton issue. Throughout the summer and fall, Trump has attacked the FBI as corrupt for not effectively ending Clinton’s political career.

A political firestorm erupted, with Comey and the bureau coming under withering criticism, including a rebuke on Wednesday from Barack Obama. Even some congressional Republicans, no friends to Clinton, have expressed discomfort with Comey’s last-minute insertion of the bureau into the election.

The relevance of the communications to the Clinton inquiry has yet to be established, as Comey issued his letter before obtaining a warrant to evaluate them. Clinton surrogates contend that Comey has issued innuendo rather than evidence, preventing them from mounting a public defense.

Some feel Comey needs to address the criticism and provide reassurance that the bureau, with its wide-ranging investigative and surveillance powers, will comport itself in an apolitical manner. Yet since Friday, Comey has maintained his silence, even as both Clinton and Trump have called for the bureau to disclose more of what it knows.

Leaks, however, have continued. Fox News reported on Wednesday that the FBI is intensifying an investigation into the Clinton Foundation over allegations – which both the foundation and the Clinton camp deny – it traded donations for access to Hillary Clinton when she was secretary of state. The Wall Street Journal reported that justice department officials considered the allegations flimsy.

The leaks have not exclusively cast aspersions on Clinton. Paul Manafort, Trump’s former campaign manager, is the subject of what is said to be a preliminary FBI inquiry into his business dealings in Russia. Manafort has denied any wrongdoing.

The Daily Beast reported on Thursday on ties between Trump surrogate Rudy Giuliani, the former New York mayor, and the FBI’s New York field office, which reportedly pressed the FBI to revisit the Clinton server investigation after beginning an inquiry into Weiner’s alleged sexual texting with a minor. The website reported that a former New York field office chief, highly critical of the non-indictment, runs a military charity that has received significant financial donations from Trump.

Comey’s decision to tell the public in July that he was effectively dropping the Clinton server issue angered some within the bureau, particularly given the background of tensions with the justice department over the Clinton issue. A significant complication is the appearance of a conflict of interest regarding Loretta Lynch, the attorney general, who met with Bill Clinton this summer ahead of Comey’s announcement, which she acknowledged had “cast a shadow” over the inquiry.

“Many FBI agents were upset at the director, not because he didn’t [recommend to] indict, but they believe he threw the FBI under the bus by taking the heat away from DoJ [Department of Justice],” the former bureau official said.

All this has compounded pressure on Comey, with little end in sight.

Jim Wedick, who retired from the bureau in 2004 after 35 years, said that if Clinton is elected, she and Comey would probably find a way to work together out of a sense of pragmatism. He recalled both his own occasional clashes with federal prosecutors and Bill Clinton’s uneasy relationship with his choice for FBI director, Louis Freeh.

“Each one will find a way to pick at the other. It’s not going to be good and it’s not going to be pretty. But they’ll both have to work with each other,” he said.

Senator Ron Wyden, an Oregon Democrat on the intelligence committee, said: “The continued leadership failures at the FBI are another reminder we can’t let intelligence agencies say ‘trust us’ and then give them a blank check to probe into Americans’ lives.

“While I’ve argued for years that Congress must create ironclad protections for Americans’ security and privacy, we also need vigilant oversight of agencies that have the power to deprive citizens of their liberty or change the course of an election.”

The FBI would not comment for this story.

*****

Readers: What we have here is another example of the lack of diversity in our government – the FBI is run by white men, and always has been. Just like we have a need for diversity in other areas of politics and our government, the need for more honesty, and more women and OTWs is needed in the FBI. This article proves the FBI is obviously biased and out to get Hillary, and sabotage her from winning the election.

It’s now clear that white men -  the FBI – pressured Comey to come out with his false story. He “lectured” Hillary about her “recklessness” but she was no more “reckless” than anyone else with her emails. Google it. If the head of the FBI can’t control his men then he shouldn’t be in the position he is holding. And it’s obvious that he can’t.

And…If the FBI are trying to sabotage a presidential candidate (!), who else have they framed or gone after? This is insane. We know they didn’t just start this with Hillary. We know that others must have fallen prey to their nasty tactics and schemes. Martin Luther King comes to mind – Who else?

Amazing how so many that oppose Hillary were shouting that the FBI was protecting Hillary by not prosecuting her for these emails. When it is truly the contrary.

Thoughts? It’s Friday…you know what to do.

Blog me.

Irene: Thank you. I hope many people feel the same way. We’re almost there.

With regards to Prop 61 and 65, which on the Dem site notes they have no official position, I am voting “No.” I can see through the ruses of the corps trying to get over on us. By voting “yes,” this let’s them back in  the game. Sorry but I’m not buying it. Vote “No” on 61 & 65.

Peace out.

    There is a group within the FBI that call themselves the Pure 100. They are 100 white men who use their power which gives them access to surveillance, the ability to arrest or the ability to destroy the lives of citizens via innuendo, to intimidate or destroy the reputations of those they dislike.

    Other white men in the department shrug and ignore these racist zealots. It is not an over statement to say they are unapologetic american nazis who use their positions as the nation’s police to, in their opinions, prevent “White Genocide.”

    They consider “White Genocide” the deceasing of the white majority in this country by allowing OTWs to immigrate here in large numbers.

    Since the formation, they have used the power of the FBI to keep the progress of OTWs trying to achieve equality to a minimum. They have framed, embarrassed, jailed, had murdered, and murdered many who they felt needed to be dealt with to preserve the white race.

    Rudy Giuliani helped orchestrate the leaks from the New York FBI office. Sides are being taken within the FBI that will define political course of this country for decades.

    Political figures will be framed, blackmailed, jailed or murdered to protect these FBI cause, power, and identities.

    Comey has shown that he is pro surveillance of the citizenry and very vulnerable to the rank and file members of the FBI.

    The Russians have infiltrated the FBI through their appeal to the “white power” element of the agency. The russian influence is so prevalent other agencies are reluctant to share top secret information with the agency.

    The FBI has tried to intimidate the Justice Department because it has detected racism and bias in their selection of cases and how the FBI uses their surveillance powers.

    NSA and other secret agencies charged with keeping the US borders free from outside interference, suspect some members of the FBI of cooperating with the Russians to hack the national election.

    Arresting huge numbers of FBI agents and accusing them of cooperating with foreign governments to influence the presidential election could prove very embarrassing to the nation in the world as a whole.

    The fact that we have a stable passing of power from one administration to another is the reason the dollar is the strongest currency in the world. It is the one currency the rest of the world can count on to remain untainted by a refusal of the new successor to recognize its debts.

    Therefore many in the secret agencies are putting forth more severe measures to deal with those FBI agents who are compromising the sovereignty of the USA.

    Let this be a warning to you that if you persist, arrest will be the least of your worries.

  2. M Says:

    On Thursday a potential direct line of communication surfaced between that of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, and the likelihood that pro-Trump agents are actively trying to undermine Hillary Clinton’s campaign by leaking information related to investigations into her email practices as U.S. Secretary of State.

  3. Anonymous Says:

    “I think he’s [Donald Trump] got a surprise or two that you’re going to hear about in the next few days,” Giuliani said. “I mean, I’m talking about some pretty big surprises… We’ve got a couple of things up our sleeve that should turn this thing around.”

  4. Joyce Says:

    Apparently, the line between FBI agents and Gestapo Agents is very thin…

  5. Owen Says:

    And the FBI was supposed to be essential in protecting against cyber interference during the election. Seems the classic “fox in the hen house” is very true here.
