FBI in Crisis: It's - Much Worse - Than You Think

[laserhaas]

Both sides of the politico spectrum are crying a loud foul about, specific FBI agents, and their alleged bad faith deeds; and Time Magazine now has a May 15, 2018 cover story - titled...

The FBI Is In Crisis: It's Worse Than You Think

My title of this thread, goes a bit further, stating it is "Much Worse" than you think; and I'll tell you why, at the end.

Let's see what Time Magazine says....

In normal times, the televisions are humming at the FBI’s 56 field offices nationwide, piping in the latest news as agents work their investigations. But these days, some agents say, the TVs are often off to avoid the crush of bad stories about the FBI itself. The bureau, which is used to making headlines for nabbing crooks, has been grabbing the spotlight for unwanted reasons: fired leaders, texts between lovers and, most of all, attacks by President Trump. “I don’t care what channel it’s on,” says Tom O’Connor, a veteran investigator in Washington who leads the FBI Agents Association. “All you hear is negative stuff about the FBI … It gets depressing.”

Problem is, the nation's most prominent federal police force has been administrate by political appointments; and everyone is getting upset by political appointees being political.

Bet you didn't know that there's an odd percentage of Mormons, in the FBI; and that one Mormon in the FBI, went to prison, for life!

Howard Hughes utilized the Mormon Mafia, to keep the Italian mob away from Howard Hughes.

As a matter of fact, much of the early financing of Vegas, came from Howard Hughes and his Mormon executives. (And Hughes demise has a Mormon law firm story - of MNAT in Delaware - mind boggling).

Thing is, with a unorthodox amount of Mormons, in the FBI, the fact is, Mormons are less likely to be investigated (just ask MNAT, Mitt Romney, or his Bain Capital).

Furthermore, as reported by The Globalist, during the 2012 Mitt Romney Presidential run

Traditionally, the FBI has been dominated by two factions – the Jesuits, classically law graduates of Fordham University in the New York borough of the Bronx, and the “Mormon Mafia.” The reactionary writer Cleon Skousen, a Mormon who was also the top ideologue of the infamous John Birch Society, and who coined the term “New World Order,” was an example of this FBI Mormon Mafia. The FBI Mormons have been found guilty of ethnic discrimination in a federal court a few years ago. Over 300 Hispanic FBI employees from Los Angeles successfully sued their bosses for allowing the Mormon Mafia to discriminate against Hispanics in hiring.

Of the FBI being sued, concerning discrimination for the benefit of Mormons, this is corroborated by Wikipedia; which notes the head (Richard Bretzing) of the Los Angeles FBI, on Wilshire Blvd, quit, after the FBI confessed to the bias. Then Mr. Breeding became head of security, of the Mormon Church. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=http://www.equip.org/PDF/DM510.pdf&ved=0ahUKEwij5dK7i_XaAhUW12MKHWSpAAEQFggwMAI&usg=AOvVaw2tTusjmbjrMQ9UKHDDE6eu

Yes, I'm digress; but - as you will see at the end of this thread - there's very good reason.

There are many other questionable issues with the FBI, throughout the ages; including J. Edgar Hoover's ways of addressing activists like Martin Luther King, Jr.

As it is written, it transpires. Power corrupts; and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Getting back to Time Magazines cover story, it goes on....

The Justice Department’s Inspector General, Michael Horowitz, will soon release a much-anticipated assessment of Democratic and Republican charges that officials at the FBI interfered in the 2016 presidential campaign. That year-long probe, sources familiar with it tell TIME, is expected to come down particularly hard on former FBI director James Comey, who is currently on a high-profile book tour. It will likely find that Comey breached Justice Department protocols in a July 5, 2016, press conference when he criticized Hillary Clinton for using a private email server as Secretary of State even as he cleared her of any crimes, the sources say. The report is expected to also hit Comey for the way he reopened the Clinton email probe less than two weeks before the election, the sources say.

The report closely follows an earlier one in April by Horowitz, which showed that the ousted deputy director of the FBI, Andrew McCabe, had lied to the bureau’s internal investigations branch to cover up a leak he orchestrated about Clinton’s family foundation less than two weeks before the election. (The case has since been referred to the U.S. Attorney’s office in Washington, D.C., for potential prosecution.) Another IG report in March found that FBI retaliation against internal whistle-blowers was continuing despite years of bureau pledges to fix the problem. Last fall, Horowitz found that the FBI wasn’t adequately investigating “high-risk” employees who failed polygraph tests.

.
As noted by time, the IG report, due out soon, stipulates that - "FBI retaliation against internal whistle-blowers was continuing despite years of bureau pledges to fix the problem".

This is alarming - greatly!

If Federal Agents are being retaliated against, for blowing the whistle - and the administrators (political appointees) continuously fail to correct the problems - then how is there are hope for good faith and justice?

Mindblowingly, NY AG Eric Schneiderman resigned today.

There's none perfect - no, not, one!

Time Magazine goes on to state.....

Indeed, public support for the FBI has plunged. A PBS NewsHour survey in April showed a 10-point drop–from 71% to 61%–in the prior two months among Americans who thought the FBI was “just trying to do its job” and an 8-point jump–from 23% to 31%–among those who thought it was “biased against the Trump Administration.”

The FBI, of course, continues to do good work. On April 25, local authorities in Sacramento and the FBI announced the dramatic arrest of the Golden State Killer. That same day it helped bust 39 people in Pennsylvania in a cocaine-trafficking investigation, 14 prison employees in South Carolina in a bribery case and two men in New Jersey in a $5.3 million tax-evasion probe. Assistant FBI Director William F. Sweeney Jr., who runs the New York field office and oversaw the April 9 raid against Trump’s personal lawyer Michael Cohen, says his agents’ response to the turmoil has been to “double down and [say], ‘Hey, we’re gonna keep on moving.'”

Some question whether the FBI has gotten too big and has been asked to do too many things. After 9/11, then FBI director Robert Mueller, who is now the special counsel leading the Russia probe, made massive new investments in counterterrorism and intelligence, shifting resources and investigative focus from white collar crime and bank robberies.

And, there it is!

Focus on white collar crime has been shifted away.

Do you remember the infamous Yates Memo" and promises to address Wall Street frauds?

Can you name 1 person the Yates Memo actually addressed?

Neither can I...

What I can do is tell you that Mitt Romney has been part of a racketeering enterprise, in partnership with Goldman Sachs - for the past 20 years.

Thing is, the FBI has threaten me, multiple times, for blowing the whistle on Goldman Sachs & Bain Capital rackets.

As facts detail, the problems within the FBI, are -FAR WORSE - than even Time Magazine knows.

Now FBI Agents, turned whistleblower, are following me, on social media (likely because our eToys related cases has been reportedupon, over 100 times).

Funny thing is, with current and former FBI Agents, thanking me, it never occurred to me, that FBI Agents would be coming to me, for help.

Things are screwed up.....Greatly.
