The FBI has not “gone rogue,” but there are agents in the organization that are out of control, using their power to attack the President.
The Flynn leaks was absolutely insane.
The media, of course, is blaming the Trump administration for being like “what the hell are you people doing?”
But no government would tolerate their intelligence agencies actively spying on them and leaking the information to the media.
Donald Trump is turning his fire on the FBI in his growing feud with the intelligence community.
The president took aim at the bureau after reports that officials refused to dispute a New York Times story that said agents had uncovered contact between Russian officials and Trump’s presidential campaign.
Trump blasted the bureau for being “totally unable to stop the national security ‘leakers’ that have permeated our government for a long time.”
The White House request to the FBI — made by chief of staff Reince Priebus to Deputy Director Andrew McCabe — is the second time in two weeks that the White House has reportedly asked an intelligence agency to publicly deny a press report.
Last week, CIA Director Mike Pompeo issued a statement calling a Wall Street Journal story “dead wrong,” reportedly after the president “yelled” at him for failing to respond to the story initially. The White House and the CIA deny that such a conversation took place.
Former Obama administration officials were quick to denounce the report of contact with the FBI.
“I’ve never heard of anything like it before. It’s unusual and completely inappropriate,” said Matthew Miller, a former Justice Department spokesperson under former President Obama.
“If the president can order investigations into his opponents or quash investigations into his friends or his staff members, then we quickly become a banana republic.”
Banana republic?
Isn’t that a racist term, referring to brown people as banana-eating savage monkeys who can’t run a government?

Anyway. That isn’t the term.
The term is “national security state,” which is what we need to fight our enemies.
The FBI has been staunchly silent, declining to talk to reporters even on background, while White House officials have insisted that McCabe told them The Times story about contact with Russia was “bull—-.”
According to senior officials, following an unrelated meeting last week, McCabe privately told Priebus that the story was inaccurate. Priebus asked, “What can we do about this?”
McCabe said he would look into the matter. Later, he called Priebus back and told him that while the FBI would “love to help … we can’t get into the position of making statements on every story.” He told Priebus that he could cite “senior intelligence officials” as saying there was nothing to the story.
Later, the senior officials said, FBI Director James Comey called Priebus and echoed McCabe — the story was wrong, he said, but the FBI would not put out a statement.
The FBI has a longstanding policy of not commenting on active investigations.
But that stance has come under scrutiny following a series of public disclosures about the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s personal email server, which her team has argued cost her the election.
Still, it is unusual for a White House chief of staff to make such a request of the bureau. Normally, former officials say, depending on the subject matter, contact between the White House and the FBI is carefully restricted to flow through the White House counsel’s office.
“We didn’t try to knock the story down. We asked them to tell the truth,” press secretary Sean Spicer said.
For former officials, there are two problems with the request.
The first is that the mere fact of the request — coming as it did from the president’s chief of staff — encroached on the independence of the FBI.
The Justice Department in 2007 and 2009 issued memos setting procedures for contact between the department and the White House.
“Initial communications between the [Justice] Department and the White House concerning pending or contemplated criminal investigations or cases will involve only the Attorney General or the Deputy Attorney General, from the side of the Department, and the Counsel to the President, the Principal Deputy Counsel to the President, the President, or the Vice President from the side of the White House,” the 2009 memo states.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has called for an inspector general investigation into conversations between White House officials and the FBI concerning any open investigations, calling the request “an outrageous breach of the FBI’s independence.”
…Critics argue that the administration is cherry-picking intelligence for political gain — starting with a conclusion and working backwards rather than following the facts where they lead.
The second problem with the Priebus-McCabe interaction, critics say, is the content of what was discussed. According to the White House, the conversation in question was limited to the veracity of The New York Times report — not the underlying investigation.
If the contact was unorthodox – and I’m not sure it even was, because I have no idea, I certainly don’t trust the media to tell me that this never happens – but if it was, it was because the situation of the FBI spying on (future) government appointees and then leaking the illegally gathered data to the media was unprecedented.
The media should be focused on why the FBI did that – not how Trump responded to it.
But that’s the Jew media for you.
The Washington Post was the number one outlet saying that the content of Wikileaks didn’t matter, that the only thing that mattered was how they were leaked (they claimed Russia did it).
Their tune is now the opposite on the FBI leaks – which were leaked by our people, and thus much more serious than any foreign hacking.
The WaPo has even added the slogan “Democracy Dies in Darkness” to their header, so supportive are they of the FBI illegally spying on the Trump administration and leaking it to the press.
Trump needs to purge all of the intelligence agencies of traitors. We know that there was a large contingent in the FBI that supported Trump. We need to keep those people in and get the traitors out.
Trump is going to give these people an unprecedented ability to crack down on Moslems, which I imagine is what most of them want, as Moslems are rightly viewed as the prime security threat. They need his permission to do this, he needs them to stop spying on him and leaking the information to the media.
