What the hell is going on with the FBI? Yet another release of info on the Clintons!

[napi21]

This time it was about Bill & Marc Rich. When asked, Comey said it was the result of a FOIA request that jus happened to be ready today. Brian Williams is making a really big deal of this an how Comey is destroying himself.

1. Just happened to be ready today?

All righty then.

[cilla4progress]

2. One word for this

Heil

[madaboutharry]

3. Comey has lost control of the agency.

It has been taken over by Clinton hating rogue agents.

[C_U_L8R]

4. Seems he's also lost control of his marbles

What the heck are you thinking, Comey?

[napi21]

8. Brian Williams just said Comey has lost total control of his agency too.

Far as I can tell, Comey's first "bombshell" bombed, and I suspect thins one will too. Who wants to bet on when he will resign?

[BlueStreak]

32. This sounds like a guy who knows he will be fired right after the election, so

he's painting the town.

So much of that reputation of his. Seems like Comey is auditioning for a job on the new Trump Network.

[unblock]

5. Just happened to be another violation of policy

Comey could easily have held this up until after the election.

[Grassy Knoll]

6. You Can Tell They Know Traffic Cop Job Is Coming..

[Ligyron]

7. There have been too many desperate, last min attempt at sabotage in this election

by the FBI to be tolerated anymore. Someone in the Executive needs to shut this down.

[napi21]

10. I was thinking the same thing. From what I've heard the only person who can fire him

is the POTUS. Since we're so close to election day, I doubt if anything will be done now. If/when Hillary wins, I suspect one of the first few things we hear in the news is "The President has accepted the resignation of Director Comey

[workinclasszero]

9. Comey is out of control

and a disgrace to his office.

If he had any honor he would resign and take a job with drumpfs campaign!

[riversedge]

22. It may be that he has NO control over his Department! Who is in charge?? Wayward agents?

Lots of screen shots of tweets included....



Dormant FBI Archives Twitter Account Revived Two Days Ago: Pro Trump, Anti Clinton

http://heatst.com/politics/dormant-fbi-archives-twitter-account-revived-two-days-ago-pro-trump-anti-clinton/



By Louise Mensch | 2:25 pm, November 1, 2016

The verified FBI archives account on Twitter has been dormant for over a year. Two days ago, it started tweeting again with a partisan release praising Fred C. Trump as a “philanthropist”. Trump was the father of Donald Trump, and was a highly controversial figure particularly over race issues. Today, the FBI archives released negative material on the Bill Clinton Foundation.


A Hillary supporter on Twitter, Dustin Giebel, whom I have interviewed, pointing out the shocking fact that the FBI Archives account had been completely dormant since 2015 before the oleaginous tweet about Fred Trump.


Giebel’s summation is correct. This tweet on Fred Trump was published Oct 30:
.....................................

was immediately preceded by this tweet – posted over a year ago in August, 2015.

Meanwhile, an anti-Clinton tweet appeared on the feed today:

The evidence of partisan hackery here comes as there is huge skepticism over unnamed FBI sources who spun to the New York Times that Donald Trump was not linked to Russia (it should be noted that the agency itself has said no such thing, and have briefed Harry Reid on an active investigation).

.......................................

24. The Russian mafia? Putin? Both?

I can't believe the FBI is a squeeze toy for a Russian dictator now.

Shit sometimes I think I have lived to long, if you get my drift. SMH

[riversedge]

25. Just too many leaks!! the timing of release raise quesions as they say!!

[TheLibIn615]

11. I don't want Hillary, or any Democratic president ever again...

to appoint any Republican to any position. Ever.

Intuitively it makes sense, and I don't begrudge Obama for appointing Comey. Ostensibly it serves the essential purpose of bridging partisan divide in this country. But as the last week has shown us, in practice, it is tantamount to letting a bull walk into your China shop in the hopes that it will buy something and write a good review on Yelp. If you appoint 100 Republicans, 99 may be principled public servants, but one of them will either be subversive/treacherous, or so stupid or incompetent that it basically amounts to subversiveness or treachery.

Comey's behavior is only furthering the partisan divide with in this country, which is completely anathema to the purpose of appointing a member of the opposing party to a position of great power and responsibility to begin with. It's just not worth it anymore. Democrats need to let the adults, i.e. themselves, run things to the greatest extent possible.

[napi21]

16. I actually liked Comey and supported his nomination to Dir. I admired him for

standing up the the Cheney thugs in that hospital room with Ashcroft very sick. I think Obama did too which is why he asked him to take the job. Honestly, I blame his actions on the vicious threats and actions of the leaders of the Pub Party. They pressured him so hard after he declined to charge Hillary with a crime, they badgered him into submission to renounce all his ethics and cow tow to their demands.

[riversedge]

26. It may be time for Obama to step in? Or, given how close we are to Nov 8 it may

not be wise.

[LuvLoogie]

12. Putin must have video of Trump & Comey

committing felonious acts of a deplorable nature.

[doc03]

13. But Comey won't release anything against Trump it is too close to the election nt

[LuvLoogie]

14. Why do people lose their shit so bad over Hillary?

[spooky3]

21. It starts with an M and ends in a Y.

[DemonGoddess]

23. +1000!

[LuvLoogie]

27. Ha! Look out fuckers. Here she comes...

[Bigredhunk]

1) Eric Holder trashes Comey in op-ed
2) FBI puts out files on Marc Rich pardon, Holder's big embarrassment
Probably just a coincidence.

This is all just horrible. American civic collapse right before our eyes.

[Dawson Leery]

17. Lots of Robert Hannsens, that is what is happening.

[napi21]

19. I honestly don't think Pooty would trust Comey OR the Con enough to make either one

an agent.

[Blue Idaho]

18. Well, it should be easy enough to prove Comey's incompetence.

He has demonstrated it several times this week.

[TrekLuver]

29. I just called the FBI to complain

https://www.fbi.gov/contact-us/field-offices


They suggested I call the DOJ and my local politicians to complain and I will.

[spooky3]

30. They answered the phone at this hour? Great (or maybe

you got a recording?). Maybe people should contact the Office of Special Counsel (as Richard Painter did).

[TrekLuver]

31. Nope they answered the phone herein NY...https://www.justice.gov/contact-us will call the DOJ

tomorrow because....

Because something is happening here but you don't know what it is
Do you, Mr. Comey?

[spooky3]

35. Wow!

[napi21]

34. Wow! That's interesting. You want to complain, go see the boss.

I don't know what I thought they'd say. Something like I'm keeping a log of complaints and will be sure to include yours. I wonder if the FBI employees have all turned against their boss so they're sending you to HIS BOSS.

[NWCorona]

33. The FBI twitter account also just released Hillary testimony as well

For a dormant twitter account it sure has been active lately.
