FBI Director Kash Patel starts purge of 'undercover' James Comey agents who 'infiltrated' Trump's...
|
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] The FBI is beginning an investigation into an alleged accusation against former FBI director James Comey, after a whistleblower accused him of using female 'honeypot' agents to infiltrate the Trump campaign.
An agency whistleblower revealed details of the scheme, accusing Comey of launching an off-the-books investigation into Trump's campaign in 2015, according to Washington Times reporter Kerry Picket.
Details of the operation was revealed in a protected disclosure to the House Judiciary Committee in 2024, according to the Times.
Two female FBI undercover agents were drafted to infiltrate Trump's 2016 campaign as 'honeypots' the report noted.
The term 'Honeypots' refers to undercover agents feigning romantic interest with individuals within an organization to gain access from a specific target.
The whistleblower said in the disclosure that Comey 'personally knew' and 'personally directed' the operation even though it was off the books.
Comey was assisted by then-Deputy Director Dave Bowdich and Paul Abbate, according to the disclosure.
The undercover agents allegedly targeted campaign adviser George Papadopoulos, who was the focus of Comey's early efforts to scrutinize the Trump operation.
The FBI declined to comment when contacted by DailyMail.com about the story.
The news suggests that Patel will pursue investigations of past officials who targeted Trump within the FBI, even though he indicated he had no interest in doing so during his Senate confirmation hearings.
'I have no interest, no desire and will not, if confirmed, go backwards,' Patel said during his Senate Judiciary Committee confirmation hearing. 'There will be no politicization at the FBI. There will be no retributive actions taken.'
