A former FBI agent battling Deputy Director McCabe said there is a 'cancer' inside the FBI
Circa ^ | 9-1-17 | Sara A. Carter

When the FBI launched an investigation into former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, one of the bureau’s top former counterterrorism agents believed that FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe would have to recuse himself from the investigations.

Former Supervisory Special Agent Robyn Gritz was one of the bureau’s top intelligence analysts and terrorism experts but resigned from the bureau five years ago after she said he was harassed and her career was blocked by top FBI management. She filed a formal sexual discrimination complaint against the bureau in 2013 and it was Flynn, among many others, who publicly came to her aide.

In her first on-camera interview she described the retaliation from McCabe and others in the bureau as “vicious.”

A 16-year veteran with outstanding work performance reviews and accomplishments, Gritz alleges McCabe, along with other senior management, made it impossible for her to do her job and obstructed her ability to move up the ranks.

She eventually filed an Equal Employment Opportunity Complaint [EEOC] in 2013 for sexual discrimination and a hostile work environment against McCabe and other superiors. In 2012 she received the only negative review in her career with the FBI, and it was conducted by the same supervisor she had named in her EEOC.

She told Circa, current senior level management, including McCabe, created a “cancer like” bureaucracy striking fear into FBI agents and causing others to resign. She eventually resigned herself, but her case is still pending.

The FBI has become corrupt under 8 years of Obama and Obama
appointees. Time to investigate the investigators.

Or it shows Trump was trying to play nice.
It hasn’t worked.
Time for Trump to get vicious.

I’m guessing Trump’s going to wait until the ‘Russia Russia Russia’ thing is behind him. Then he will fired every damn last one of ‘em.

Where would we find enough uncorrupted investigators with sufficient authority and willingness to do so...........

Doesn't seem likely as he gets more and more isolated every passing day.

That's my concern as well: he is getting more and more isolated, and losing staff who hold the same values as do most Conservatives.
The "SWAMP" is slowly regaining control despite the election and what the people want done.

Isolated? Not buying that liberal elite talking point... DC ‘shuns’ people who dare to stand up to the crooked elites of DC... that's known. It's NOT an invitation to join them.

Look how the ‘elites’ in DC live on the taxpayers dime - better than almost everyone in the country. Four or five of the wealthiest ZIP codes in the United States are clustered around DC. And for all the wealth the jerks feed themselves they don't do crap for the people who pay their bloated salaries and useless 'departments'.

No, Trump will drain the swamp - and NO he's not going to get all buddy buddy with the crooks. YOU want a police chief getting cozy with mobs and street gangs? I mean, come on...

Here's how it'll work - the ‘swamp’ will win every publicity battle but Trump will win the War...

I don’t know. But I do not think it’s because he doesn’t want to. I think the deep state is so deeply entrenched and has so much support from corrupt politicians, the corrupt ruling establishment, et al. that he has found it impossible so far.

I appreciate your comments. We struggle for truth and clarity.

This is why it is so important for President Trump to succeed. He is fighting the cancer. If he succeeds, he will probably have been the greatest President in US history because he will have succeeded in saving the USA and the American Dream from destruction. That's what he's trying so hard to do.

Let's pray that the Americans who do not understand will wake up before it's too late.

"No country can long survive the cancer you’ve so perceptively diagnosed."

Certainly that's true.

Maybe it helps that I'm an M.D.

>>I will argue that your thoughts are founded on ignorance.
You don’t know what you don’t know but insist in talking about that which you don’t know as if it were important.

You’re in a free country and may argue whatever you wish. I am ignorant about one thing however, and that’s what the hell it is that you’re babbling about. Can you be a little more specific?

Sessions is a worn out D.C. Swamp thing.
He talked a great game but it was all BS to get that AG job for his legacy and big ego.

Those dangerous Civil Right Obama nutters at still at. the DOJ are still suing and smearing Christian’s and whites while sessions looks the other way .

This is over Benghazi and in that case it possibly involved two things- offshore interrogations and a coverup of Iran-backed attackers.
Note Feinstein’s late revival of her weird fixation on Gitmo and detainee rights. Flynn is a hawk on Iran. Gritz was involved in the FBI portion of the Benghazi investigation.
The Iran deal decision is still pending, are we going to throw it out or not? Maybe that hanging there is why these cases hang there too.
