Strzok's firing reveals the scandal at the FBI's Office of Professional Responsibility |
2018-08-15 |
[American Thinker] Because Trump-haters already are donating hundreds of thousands of dollars to Peter Strzok's GoFundMe begathon, they are likely to fund his lawyers making an issue of his firing. The fact that the deputy director of the FBI overruled the Office of Professional Responsibility's recommendation for a mild penalty of a 60-day suspension and a demotion will no doubt be a centerpiece of their argument that politics reared its ugly head, and he is a martyr. Good. Sara Carter, with many sources within the FBI, lays out the case that the OPR acted with bias and needs reform. I recommend that you read the whole thing, but here are some excerpts: [W]hat could have led FBI Deputy Director David Bowdich, to make the decision to overrule OPR? ... Unless I am mistaken, these are felonious actions. No wonder Strzok needs a legal defense fund. The OPR obviously needs reform, as does more than just the top management of the FBI. |

#1 The "scandal" is likely a bit larger than simply one office. |
