I wish this were true but I just cannot convince myself that it is. These are government workers at the end of the day. They are not going to jeopardize their jobs and pensions.

I hope that I am wrong.

Nope. Not gonna happen.

Like the rest of the D.C. bureaucrat drones they just want to keep their heads down and their noses clean long enough to collect a pension that the rest of us could only dream of.

No one is gonna be dying on any hills over principle here.

Some are saying that FBI employees are already leaking information ala Watergate. No love lost for Obama or Hillary.

The government worker mandarin class isn’t about to risk their seats in the back of the gravy train bus.

"These are government workers at the end of the day. They are not going to jeopardize their jobs and pensions."

Their courage surfaces the moment they retire and announce their book deal ten years too late.

Kallstrom's guilt is eating him alive from inside.

I’m with you. At the end of the day all of these people are still federal government t employees with cushy jobs, nice salaries, and a wonderful retirement to look forward to. They may indeed despise Hillary, but they’re not giving up their cushy lifestyles.

Unfortunately, I believe that you’re right. If they were going to do something, they would have already done it by now.

I don't think you are wrong. No significant number of FBI agents would revolt or even complain. I doubt any are even threatening to do so. They know damn well the variable tier justice system in place in the US (the privileged get a pass), and as you point out, income and pensions are at stake.

Joe DiGenova, being a former DOJ attorney is well wired in to what goes on.

Exactly. They might be pissed off, and maybe a couple of them will anonymously leak some details, but no one is going to risk their livelihood or pension. Government employees have a built-in conflict of interest and cannot be trusted to inform on their politician masters.
