| So much for... 'a few bad FBI apples' |
| 2018-09-14 |
| [PJ] Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) revealed on Fox News Wednesday that as many as thirteen different FBI officials were leaking to one reporter, according to the Department of Justice inspector general’s report on the FBI’s handling of the Clinton email investigation. He presented that information to push back against spin from fired FBI Agent Peter Strzok’s lawyer, who claimed that an April 2017 text message referring to the FBI's "media strategy" was about combating leaks. "The argument that Mr. Strzok’s making just doesn’t hold water, doesn’t pass the smell test," Jordan said. Newly revealed text messages show Strzok discussing media leaks with his paramour, former FBI attorney Lisa Page. "I had literally just gone to find this phone to tell you I want to talk to you about media leak strategy with DOJ before you go," one of the texts reads. |

| #10 Remember all those "mass resignations" due to Comey's malfeasance? Yeah, me neither. |

| #6 Whew! I added width=500 to your HTML string, Chuckles Platypus8549, which fixed the huge image problem. |

| #5 That's pretty old news. E.g., this graphic has been floating around since at least June (note that the center portion shows 2-way communication between 13 FBI officials & one reporter with a more few apparently unreturned communication attempts by the reporter): |

| #4 JohnQC, I have noticed the same and believe you are correct. To take it a step further, I believe there really may be an October surprise from the President. |

| #3 I looked for recent tweets by Rosenstein and Comey. They have been strangely silent recently. I suspect they have lawyered up and been told to shut up. |

| #2 Its in the FBI culture. They leak to the press on just about every level. We had issues with it on a job I had. Our leaders put out false information and by the next day the FBI had leaked it across the wire. |
