GOP lawmakers are getting fed up with the FBI’s crap. During a hearing before the House Judiciary Committee earlier this month, FBI Director Christopher Wray refused to say if the FBI paid– at least in part– for the fake dossier on President Trump. He was all, “Questions about the dossier are something better taken up in separate settings.”
There’s shady business going down. For crying out loud, we had one FBI official say that they needed to implement some sort of “insurance policy” in case Trump won the election.
“Listen you can’t make this stuff up. It gets worse each and every day… What deep down scares me, if this actually happened the FBI had a concerted effort with the people at the top to go after one party’s nominee to help the other party’s nominee,” Rep. Jim Jordan recently said. “If that actually happened in the United States of America and everything each and every day points to more and more likely that that is what took place, it is sad for our country if that took place. And I think it did based on everything I am seeing. All the evidence points to that.”
It certainly does. It looks that way more and more every single day. So what can we do? What’s the next step? What do you do when the FBI itself is corrupt?
Word has it GOP lawmakers plan to subpoena “top officials at the FBI and Justice Department.”
It’s going down FOR REAL.
Republicans have zeroed in on deputy FBI director Andrew McCabe, top counterintelligence agent Peter Strzok, FBI attorney Lisa Page, former associate deputy attorney general Bruce Ohr and his wife Nellie, who reportedly worked for Fusion GPS, the firm that compiled opposition research on Trump in 2016.
“Chairman Goodlatte has told us he is going to subpoena those individuals,” said Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), in an appearance on Fox News’ “Justice with Judge Jeanine.”
Goodlatte’s office declined comment earlier this week when asked if he was considering issuing subpoenas to those agents.
Rep. Trey Gowdy recently predicted that Andrew McCabe would be gone soon, so something is definitely happening here.
Drain the freaking swamp already.
