Lou Dobbs: 'Highly reliable source' says FBI investigating 2020 election results
2020-11-17
[Washington Examiner] Fox Business host Lou Dobbs said he received word that the FBI is investigating the 2020 election.

As he discussed President Trump's legal challenges of the results in some battleground states with attorney Sidney Powell, a member of Trump's legal team, Dobbs cut in to say a "highly reliable source" informed him that the FBI has an investigative team looking into the election results.

"I do have some news to break here at this moment. I have now received word from a highly reliable source that the FBI does have an investigative team that is now looking into this election. Now, what that means beyond that — but at least its confirmation that they are investigating, and we'll see what moves," Dobbs said.

Later in his show, Dobbs spoke with former Utah Rep. Jason Chaffetz, who was the GOP chairman of the House Oversight Committee, and said the FBI was investigating "astonishing acts of misconduct, for days, associated with the vote count." He added that he believes it has to do with a "manipulation" of the overall vote tally but did not specify where the vote tally was influenced, nor did he provide evidence to support his claims.

Asked about Dobbs's claim, FBI spokeswoman Carol Cratty told the Washington Examiner: "The FBI has no comment in keeping with our standard practice to neither confirm nor deny conducting particular investigations."
Spokeswoman Cratty was unable to confirm whether their 'best men were actually on the job.'

#18  The FBI...investigating the election? LOL!

And people thought Barr-Durham would really get to the bottom of their investigation, you know, the one that was delayed due to COVID-19....

#15  The only reason the FBI is investigating is they work for the enemy and are trying to cover it up.

#14  The FBI is no longer a legitimate law enforcement organization.

#12  The 'investigation' will be done with the same level of vigor as that of the Tsarnaev brothers.

#9  NoMoreBS. Tell the agents I thank them for their service. Also tell them this citizen believes that the top brass are over paid and over pensioned and they have trashed the agency by prostituting themsrlves for the corrupt politicians who butters their bread.

#8  Trump's attorneys found tons of evidence. Now Biden's goons intend to find out what they have on who.

#7  This was a coup d'etat. No other way to describe it.

It's surreal, its unimaginably depressing, but there it is.

What did Admiral Stockdale say about facing harsh facts?

#6  Agreed NoMoBS, I recall the Hillary whitewash by Comey. ‘No Reasonable Prosecutor’ Would Bring A Case Against Clinton.' Under the last admin., there was a tremendous criminalization of our government at the highest levels. The constant attacks on Trump from every corner leads me to be a little pessimistic.

#5  I still have a few friends that are retired agents and a couple that are stii active at the SAS (Special Agent Supervisor) and senior case agent level. I pity how much they know about the descent of the Bureau into corrupt and selective enforcement. In a my lifetime of association professionally with law enforcement agencies my opinion of the FBI has gone from highly impressed to routinely distrustful. Today, I would never speak with an agent without cousel present and my own recordings. Sad what happened especially during the Holder and Obama eras.
