The FBI Union’s President Just Quit, Penned Scathing Open Letter Blasting Comey

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Just saw this. Have not seen it on any other news source.


Director James Comey of Federal Bureau of Investigation stirred up a hornet’s nest with his decision to interfere in our election by giving House Republicans more ammunition to smear Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton over her “email scandal” – and not even everyone in his own agency is happy about it.

The head of the FBI’s Agent Association (FBIAA), Reynaldo Tariche, resigned tonight to work in the private sector in protest over Director Comey’s decision to use the FBI as a political tool on behalf of Donald Trump. “Importantly, we will not be used for political gains, and any implication that the FBI Special Agents are unwilling or incapable of performing effective investigations is simply false.'”

And quit he should. Comey’s behavior has been most unbecoming as the head of a federal law enforcement agency who is obligated to remain impartial for the good of our nation. The FBI has no idea what the emails that “may be pertinent” that were discovered on disgraced Congressman Anthony Weiner’s laptop actually contain; there was no need to alert Congress and doing so so close to an election is an obvious move to try to tip the scales in favor of the most unqualified and morally abhorrent candidate our nation has ever seen.

1. Need to see this on a more M$Mish site…

OccupyDemocrats is generally considered of mixed reputation, to put it mildly.

10. Hence my comment preceding the article.

2. good for Tariche....

at least someone in the FBI has integrity and a soul which comey utterly lacks!

7. I'm pretty sure he quit because he claims Comey is protecting the Clintons. nt

3. The more effort Comey uses to cover up for his failure to follow protocol the more mistakes he makes

4. Call the FBI to report the FBI https://www.fbi.gov/contact-us/field-offices

It's time to blow the doors off...I'm feeling good about tomorrow.

5. Hmm. I don't read it as a protest against Comey, but as

something of a push-back against criticism.

6. I thought that guy quit because agents were supposedly being blocked from investigating the

Clintons.

[Trust Buster]

8. The OP author misrepresented the facts. This guy is a Giuliani confidante. He quit because

Comey would not let them use a book funded by Breitbart as evidence against Hillary.

[procon]

11. That was my takeaway too. Everyone needs to read his letter, he's not on Hillary's side

His guy is definitely bent because Comey isn't with him and the other partisan agents trying to take her down.

16. "we find our work—our integrity—questioned as it relates to the investigation of Secretary Hillary

Clinton’s use of a private email server."

Comey never questioned the agents' work or integrity. I think this guy is part of the nest of FBI snakes in Trump's corner, and he's upset that their motivations are being called into question.

I don't interpret this as a "Scathing Open Letter Blasting Comey." I take it as: he's moving on to a private sector job, and he's taking one more blast against Hillary Clinton on the way out.

This is not "in protest over Director Comey’s decision to use the FBI as a political tool on behalf of Donald Trump." He's "defending the work and integrity" of the FBI Special Agents who are working on the Clinton email investigation.

9. How does Comey still have a job?

12. Wow.. quit over it.. that's huge!

Thanks Yo

13. Confusing post....read the thread. Not what you think

Pays to do a little digging before posting.

Sounds like this guy resigned because he is MORE political than Comey has exhibited.

14. In either case, we now know that the FBI has lost it's reputation as a law enforcement agency

necessary to the safety of our country in the days of terrorism.
We need to completely revamp the FBI and I have a feeling we have someone who might do just that. I just wish Obama would get the ball rolling by Monday.

15. The FBIAA is not a Union

It can represent general concerns, like how sick leave is applied, but doesn't have standing to perform the key function that the AFGE (Border Patrol, ICE) or the NTEU does in representing members in official disciplinary actions although they have legal representation that can be called on for general advice.
