Is the FBI itself compromised?

[HipChick]

trying to throw the election to Trump?Their credibility is shot...

Rivalry between different field office?

[NoGoodNamesLeft]

1. You mean Comey's KGB?

Because that appears to be what it has become.

[UCmeNdc]

2. It seems the FBI is having some problems investigating Trump

Almost leaderless. The FBI does seem to be unwilling to follow the financial clues to where the clues lead to. It is like their agents are being held back.

[TrekLuver]

3. Yes it clearly is. This tweet bullshit confirms it. That FBI account has been silent for a year

and then all of sudden it starts singing? It's outrageous and I'm calling the DOJ tomorrow to express my concern and outrage.

5. First on the agenda for a new Democratic Senate

FBI agents testifying in front of the Judiciary or Intelligence Committee.

6. Yes they are totally corrupt

[Tom Rivers]

8. yes

it appears many agents are going rogue in an attempt to throw the election to trump/diminish clinton's mandate. reports out that many agents are far right.

i do tend to agree with the suggestion that it might not necessarily be comey himself (though he certainly isn't looking clean in all of this), but rogue agents with a political agenda against the clintons that he cannot control. the entire body has been infected, not just the head. very troubling development for our nation if they continue to act in this manner. it is becoming clear that this is a witch hunt and a personal political vendetta.

10. very troubling...they need to clean house

[DeminPennswoods]

14. Agents can be fired

Yes, it's civil service, but agents can be fired. Trust me, HR and mgt hold all the cards when it comes to employee discipline.

[TrekLuver]

12. I would think if you wanted to throw and election you'd be covert not overt.

What the hell is going on. This should be the top story front page news.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

15. Shit rolls downhill, as the saying goes.

There were also field agents who tried to warn people at the top about the 9/11 attacks, but the highest levels of the bureaucracy largely ignored them.

[Lucinda]

16. I'm wondering who is posting on the twitter account. Actual FBI? Was it hacked?

[MoonRiver]

19. Does a bear poop in the woods?

[BSdetect]

20. Do we need to remind ourselves how long Hoover ran the FBI?

What credibility did they have then?

[Orsino]

21. It's been tangled up with the "war on drugs" for generations...

...so the math has already been done.

[Dem2]

22. Seems so

When the press is openly stating this, it seems we're in trouble as a nation even before a possible Trump win, the stakes are very high this cycle.

[LAS14]

23. Thanks for posting this.

I'll check it regularly. The prospect of FBI agents pressing their own political agendas is terrifying, whether right or left. But, yes, way more terrifying from the right, as the FBI would be their favorite nesting place.

This thought started keeping me awake a couple of nights ago.

[LAS14]

24. When does Loretta Lunch end her recusal? When does she...

... start ordering Comey to transfer "rogue" agents to outer wherever? Assuming that going through a civil service firing process would be more trouble and newsworthy than it's worth. There's got to be a way to bring discipline to this organization.

26. Link to contact DOJ at their website.

27. It was compromised the minute Obama appointed a Republican..

..but hey, "bipartisanship" hell yeah!!!

It was worth all the good will he received from Republicans and the media by doing so as well.

[Iliyah]

28. YES.

[titaniumsalute]

29. I tongue-in-cheeked in a OP the other day...Is Comey a Russian Spy?

Holy shit I got raked over the coals.

Now, I don't think he is a spy. I went for some shock value. But I think it is VERY plausible that he (or many) may have been compromised.

[getagrip_already]

31. he has been compromised.... by the gop. n/t

[titaniumsalute]

32. Which has been compromised by the KGB? Hummm....

[unitedwethrive]

33. Obviously

I'm not one of those Democrats who ever thought he was being fair and impartial. His initial statement regarding Hillary's email investigation was completely biased, filled with blatant lies, and intended to get the exact response it did…wide media coverage and ultimate exposure casting her as "reckless".

No one ever bothers to notice that he walked most of the statements back during his congressional testimony (under oath). He knew an initial press conference-like statement was the only way to get his biased views across in an unfiltered manner.

[emulatorloo]

36. Yes, I noticed once he was under oath, he undercut every biased/untrue thing he said in press

conference. Yet dumbass media didn't seem to get that
