DOJ: Key FBI Brass Flip on McCabe & Comey; High-Level Officials Testify Against...
True Pundit ^ | 04/25/18

Posted on 04/25/2018 5:56:56 PM PDT by Revel

The inner circle of James Comey and Andrew McCabe on the 7th Floor of FBI HQ has flipped, according to high level Justice Department officials.

The once-loyal cabal of FBI brass and leaders who reigned during the FBI tenures of Comey and McCabe have been testifying against their former bosses, DOJ sources confirm.

For now at least that cooperation involves cooperation with the Inspector General. Soon, that would likely extend to grand juries, according to sources.

In law enforcement circles, these players are referred to as Rats, cops who implicate other cops to save their jobs and pensions. So who is ratting on Comey and McCabe and cooperating with the proceedings against each?

FBI Counterintelligence Head Bill Priestap is the biggest fish, federal law enforcement sources said. And he is a key player here. His cooperation spells trouble for McCabe and likely Comey too.

“Last guy I would have thought would cooperate is cooperating,” one high-ranking Justice official said about Priestap. “He knows about everything the IG is looking at because he was involved in it all.”

The Justice official called Priestap’s cooperation “devastating” especially to McCabe. The source would not elaborate.

McCabe realized this when he banked over $500K on a GoFundMe campaign for upcoming legal fees.

What if the Strzok-Page texts included talk of assassination, with help from a foreign government?

Prosecutions? Really? How about persecutions first thing. Then and only then the prosecutions begin.

“Priestap was Peter Strzok’s boss and Priestap answered directly to McCabe.”

Priestap was conspicuous by his absence when the reports against Strzok, Page, the Ohrs, and McCabe surfaced.

No one ever mentioned him, yet he was smack in the middle of it all. That’s why close watchers first suspected that he was telling all to investigators. Plus Priestap married well, a wealthy young wife and he probably doesn’t want to spend the next few years in prison in order to protect Comey and McCabe and everyone else whose crimes he knows of.

The article also suggests that Strzok and Page are singing to the investigators. The article doesn’t mention it, but the tipoff there is the fact that they weren’t fired. They already have been shown the sentences that they are faced with, and they are ratting out their co-conspirators in order to shorten their time.

To bad there aren’t any patriots set to save their country.

“I doubt Priestap, Strok, Page and the others will say a word against Obama, Brennen, Lynch, Rice, Clapper...Rosenstein.”

They may not need to say another word period. They may have typed all that is needed in their texts in 2016 and 2017.

Q called Priestap flipping many moons ago....

That's the only vindication for Sessions at this point.

Hooray, this is badly needed. I just fear this won’t lead to prosecutions by those special elite who are above the law. It is nice dream to think Hilary, Obama, and all their minions along with Obama’s top brass at DOJ and FBI will all be in prison orange at Club Fed one of these days, but I am afraid all we will get from Sessions and the boys club GOP-e is a STERN reprimand. Meanwhile, I would be on a chain gang doing hard time with my right to own guns forever gone.

Here is hoping at least the truth comes out. That would be refreshing. I would like to see the Democratic Party set back a decade or 2.

Even Fox Mulder doesn’t believe this s***, but I sure wouldn’t complain about being wrong.

The FBI WAS NOT SET UP TO BE THE THUG ARM OF CORRUPT LIBERAL ELITES LIKE THE CLINTONS.

Comey and McCabe were dirty... Period.

It should end up in the OIG investigation I would think. Supposed to come out next month.
