That they're not talking about Rank & File FBI agents?

What annoys me most about Hannity is how he uses his “bumpers” to play several minutes of leftist sound bites. Maxine Waters, Nancy Pelosi, Schumer, etc., trashing Trump for minutes on end. I’ve had to tune him out for that reason.

I agree. It's the most annoying thing in the world and a waste of airtime. It's like friggin' free advertising for the Left...

Don’t forget “at the end of the day”. And speaking of Hannity, I appreciate his hard work and respect his conservatism; however I can listen to him once every 10 days and not miss a thing. He doesn’t even bother to attempt to say the same thing in a different way. It really is the exact same verbiage over and over, and I find it too annoying.

The “rank and file” are irrelevant. The FBI has been given vast powers of information collection, investigation and independence without a lot of oversight.

It doesn’t matter if it is staffed with angels (which is definitely is not) - the conditions are such that it will fall to the temptation of abuse again and again. Maybe that pressure will sometimes come from outside the FBI - it doesn’t matter. We saw it with Hoover, Felt, Freeh, now Comey and McCabe.

It’s an effort to offset the Dems saying that Trump’s and the Rs attacks on the dirty cops at the FBI/DOJ are attacks on ‘law enforcement officers” who we all know have always been atop the Ds lift of folks to admire.

You are courageous. The current FBI rank and file do not appear to be courageous

I'm not so sure the FBI rank and file should be given a pass anyway - the FBI was informed - by the Russians no less - that the Boston Marathon bombers were bad actors, and apparently did nothing - and just last week it was learned that the FBI knew for a year that Dr. Nassar was abusing students athletics and did nothing to interfere with him - they certainly need a good cleaning at the top - and maybe down to the bottom too....

Agree about the lefty soundbites.

I know/think he’s trying to show us what the left is saying and doing, since most of his audience doesn’t listen to or watch Fake Media, but it does get VERY old.

Like others, I change the channel, when he gives the left free airtime.

Thank you. It looks like they will be destroyed by their own paper trail.

My director was confirmed but he got a message that when the governor’s term was up 18 months later, he was gone.

Sadly, when i sued the state, the AG was william lockyer who, as a senator, had chaired the senate safety committee I testified before. So his deputy was fighting my lawsuit when he had an obligation to protect me because I testified before his committee in the senate.

Life was strange and lonely at that time. 12 people didn’t come to my wedding because they were told it would be bad for their careers. After 28 years I had no retirement party of recognition. I had some major accomplishments. It took 5 years to get over my anger. But my advisor had warned me about all that and I made my choice.

But now i have no regrets and if it happened again i would do the same thing and maybe in a smarter manner.

Best wishes.

Federal LE should have a very small footprint. If they can do this crap to the POTUS, they can squish the average Joe American like a bug and it sounds like they do all day long.

Perhaps when all this corruption shakes out the question will be for the rank and file - why didn’t you do anything?

The silence and lack of backbone by the “rank and file” is why this corrupt leadership have survived and thrived.

To be fair, I think the main reason Hannity repetitively assures viewers that he is not accusing rank and file FBI agents of wrongdoing is that he is constantly accused by the Dems and the Left of doing just that.

Bingo! The Dims know that a lie told often enough becomes "fact". It needs to be countered just as often.

I would add Edward Deegan’s murder and cover up to the list. My bet, the list is probably even longer, we just aren’t aware how long.

http://fbiwallofshame.blogspot.com/2008/12/timeline-of-fbis-four-decades-long.html

The quote below is the last sentence in the article and places blame where it belongs, and this cover up went on over thirty years.

“None of the agents or supervisors involved took steps to stop the prosecution. Indeed, they did just the opposite.” 9

http://www.justicedenied.org/fourmen.htm

Can I end by saying the FBI along with many other alphabet agencies of government are NOT our friends. I also believe that Bundy Ranch and Lavoy Finicum, belong on the wall of FBI Shame.

I’m tired of people who attempt to discredit Sean when he is one of the few in media supporting Trump.

Pick a side, we will not be defested, Trump and we the people will prevail.

Yes: "at the end of the day."

I agree. I like Hannity very much. He is doing the job that the entire news media should be doing, and his honesty, decency, and insistence on informing people reveal, in stark contrast, how dishonest and indecent the rest of the news media is and what a propaganda machine it has become.

However, Hannity does speak in clichés.

I wish he would sometimes rephrase.

Sick and tired of the “rank a file is formidable” hollow narrative. It’s parroted everywhere, not only on Hannity.

The rank and file stay silent and let that farce continue unabatted. So the only line that should be told is the whole FBI is rotten from the outer to the core.

I think the rank and file agents should know by now that they're not the ones that are being referenced.

Beside they all resigned in outrage because Hillary was let off the hook, read it right here.

Not tired of it because we are going to need good people to replace the rotten ones so we shouldn’t castigate all of them.

Any agency that gets 99% of it's surveillance requests approved is rotten to its core. Can you imagine what happens to the poor oaf who returns to his office without receiving a FISA warrant? He'd be in deep sushi, so he makes doubly sure his 'evidence' meets the threshold.

Any prosecutor in a regular court would have all of his past convictions thrown out or retried if he is discovered having used false or planted evidence to incriminate a suspect. Wonder if the FISA court will be reviewing the warrants that these guys have submitted before. Can't believe these guys were amateurs at this.
