'Gag' order: FBI confirms special secrecy agreements for agents in Clinton email probe
MSN News ^ | July 14, 2016 | Catherine Herridge

The FBI has confirmed to a senior Republican senator that agents were sworn to secrecy -- and subject to lie detector tests -- in the Hillary Clinton email probe, an extensive measure one former agent said could have a "chilling effect."

A July 1 letter sent by a senior deputy to FBI Director James Comey to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, detailed the restrictions on agents. The letter, reviewed by Fox News, confirmed agents signed a "Case Briefing Acknowledgement" which says the disclosure of information is "strictly prohibited" without prior approval, and those who sign are subject to lie detector tests.

"The purpose of this form is to maintain an official record of persons knowledgeable of a highly sensitive Federal Bureau of Investigation counterintelligence investigation," the agreement attached to the Grassley letter reads, "....I (FBI agent) also understand that, due to the nature and sensitivity of this investigation, compliance with these restrictions may be subject to verification by polygraph examination."

The FBI refused to take any action regarding Clinton's gross negligence and egregious violations of laws regarding classified information.

The same FBI is threatening to prosecute agents who disclose any of the details of the Clinton investigation. This is in violation of the Federal whistle blower statutes.

The FBI refused to question Clinton under oath or to keep a record of her interview. The FBI told agents working on the Clinton case that they are subject to lie detector tests if accused of revealing information.

So let me get this straight: highly sensitive counterintelligence was involved BUT no espionage?

Now that’s “counter intelligent” for you!

Any so-called “progressive” will demand to know what was edited out. They will say things like he wasn’t supporting the idea he mentioned but went on to deride it. Do you know a link more than just that?

Check it out, she can already get the law altered ad hoc to suit her requirements. That woman will be insanely dangerous to humanity if she wins.

The FBI’s new mode of operation when dealing with the politically-connected:

1. The accused will not be placed under oath. The interrogation will not be recorded. No records will be kept.

2. FBI agents will take an oath of secrecy. They will sign a non-disclosure agreement. The records will be kept and used against them, if needed.

I'll bet the Bundys wish they had known what kind of lawless scumbags they were dealing with earlier this year.

Different choices would have been made...

This explains why none of the agents are resigning in protest that Napolitano predicted. They can resign but not say anything so they wouldn’t accomplish one thing.

Has Napolitano ever been right about anything?
