| The inspector general’s report makes Jim Comey’s FBI look terrible |
| 2019-12-11 |
| [NYPOST] Jim Comey’s FBI comes off pretty bad in the long-awaited report from Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz, and the IG didn’t even look at much of "Crossfire Hurricane," the FBI’s investigation of the Trump campaign and its possible links to Russia. Yes, Horowitz says the FBI had adequate reason to open the case ‐ but only because it has such a "low threshold" for opening counterintelligence investigations. In this case, it was an Australian diplomat’s months-old memory of a vague conversation with low-level Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos: The Aussie said the Yank had said a Russian had raised the possibility of handing over dirt on Crooked HillaryClinton |

| #2 From the very day I heard about the James Comey March 11, 2004, "ICU hospital showdown" which involved the seriously ill AG John Ashcroft, I knew that Comey had a superiority complex as I have pointed out many times before on Rantburg comments. It was this messiah complex that led Comey to also insert himself into and mess with the Hillary Clinton email server investigation just prior to the 2016 Presidential election. And in the end this high opinion of himself lead Comey into trying to frame President Trump in order to expose the supposed danger that the president was to the country. The great hypocrisy is the very thing Comey was trying to prevent by the hospital room showdown to prevent the Bush administration from renewing the NSA's post 9/11 Terrorist Surveillance Program, code-named STELLAR WIND, where Comey supposedly became the nations protector and hero against the intrusive surveillance state of the Bush administration, is it any wonder that Comey would see himself having to resort to the same obtrusive surveillance tactics through the means of getting a phony FISA court authorization in order to launch a secret investigation into the "Obama administration initiated" Trump "Russian collusion" narrative/hoax, in order to justify spying on a presidential candidate in order to interfere with the 2016 presidential election and to undermine the Trump administration in "collusion" with the mainstream media. The very thing that Comey's FBI was trying to do, and did by kicking off the Special Council Mueller investigation is the very same thing Adam Schiff and the house democrats are trying to do; is to impeach Trump on the grounds of trying to interfere in the 2020 presidential election by exposing the "Biden's" corruption in Ukraine. In Bill O'Reilly's words, "If you punch Trump, he is going to punch you back." |
