The decision to let Hillary Clinton off the hook for mishandling classified information has roiled the FBI and Department of Justice, with one person closely involved in the year-long probe telling FoxNews.com that career agents and attorneys on the case unanimously believed the Democratic presidential nominee should have been charged.
The source, who spoke to FoxNews.com on the condition of anonymity, said FBI Director James Comey’s dramatic July 5 announcement that he would not recommend to the Attorney General’s office that the former secretary of state be charged left members of the investigative team dismayed and disgusted. More than 100 FBI agents and analysts worked around the clock with six attorneys from the DOJ’s National Security Division, Counter Espionage Section, to investigate the case.
“No trial level attorney agreed, no agent working the case agreed, with the decision not to prosecute -- it was a top-down decision,” said the source, whose identity and role in the case has been verified by FoxNews.com.
A high-ranking FBI official told Fox News that while it might not have been a unanimous decision, “It was unanimous that we all wanted her [Clinton’s] security clearance yanked.”
“It is safe to say the vast majority felt she should be prosecuted,” the senior FBI official told Fox News. “We were floored while listening to the FBI briefing because Comey laid it all out, and then said ‘but we are doing nothing,’ which made no sense to us.”
Andrew Napolitano, former judge and senior judicial analyst for Fox News Channel, said many law enforcement agents involved with the Clinton email investigation have similar beliefs.

Would you rather it not be reported?
The aim now is to get more ammunition for Trump to use.
Not worry about some old senile bat going to jail.
At least not until Trump gets elected.
One of the problems is who do they leak to? You cannot trust anyone in the regular media. So maybe a Lou Dobbs or a Sean Hannity. Rush has a big audience but would he do it?
I don’t hear squat publicly from the FBI or their Agents Association..their silence is confirming that the
FBI has now become the Obama KBG...
The Immigration and Border Patrol Unions are both backing Trump.
Bullsh*t
I don’t blame dissident FBI /DOJ for not going public.
The DC RINOs will not go to bat for them. The corrupt media will not cover them. And they will end up hanging out there in the wind, with no protection from the wrath of Hillary.
When there are resignations, I may believe it. Until then, they are complicit.
I believe history will prove they were not complicit. I am sure the Russians are NOT behind these and the upcoming leaks, but US patriots working for the government are leaking the truth to bring the treasonous Clinton down.
BTW, the rumors of a "WAR WITH RUSSIA" are growing VERY likely before election day, and Obama will start it.
But BHO will make it look like Russia started it.
Russia realizes this, hence their very serious war preparations all around the globe are in progress now.
I didn’t catch all of it.
I got the feeling Congress never called on them but I do know they now think the corruption is so vast they want as much legal protection as they can get before they step forward.
I did the idea that they were totally stunned at Comey’s decision and announcement and it caught them off guard.
this is absolutely insane ! ! !
They are unanimous FELONS at the FBI: "Conspiracy [18 USC 371] To Obstruct Justice [18 USC 1505]" - a federal felony...
18 U.S. Code § 371 - Conspiracy to commit offense or to defraud United States
18 U.S. Code § 1505 - Obstruction of proceedings before departments, agencies, and committees
“I don’t blame dissident FBI /DOJ for not going public.”
I agree 10000%. The brave ones will lose everything they have, and the ones who stay behind (who secretly agree) will throw them under the bus.
Will never happen, unless maybe there's ONE patriot left in government. Any whistleblowers risk losing their big-ass federal pensions.

-—The Establishment Rules!——
So long as it is alive
The FBI, and the DOJ are simply institutions that no longer function. They are traduced by liberal fascists. Lynch and Comey should be impeached.....forthwith!
“I am sure the Russians are NOT behind these and the upcoming leaks, but US patriots working for the government are leaking the truth to bring the treasonous Clinton down.”
Here, here. It’s Shillary’s cover manta. So when she hacks us or our elections....”It’s the Russians!!!”
Russians hunkering down for war. Haven’t checked it out yet. Are the European reporting it? Is it even real? Not sure what is going on there locally.
Go to war with Russia over a false cyber war? I don’t think we are that stupid yet but would have thunk we would be stupid enough to elect Bammy twice and than consider Shrill!!!!
I hope your wrong....but the more I think about it, the more I worry!
Comey committed treason by covering up Hillary’s treason. That’s grounds to arrest them both. Do your duty FBI or get out.
and because none of them have integrity, the rest of us lose the rule of law
There is a caveat here:
As we have seen, the Media is functioning as muscle for Hillary's campaign, and would likely be on any agent like Brown Shirts on a Jew.
I will give the FBI guys until the last week or so of October to Man Up, and take on the Corruptocrats.
I can see that firing before you can see the whites of their eyes would give the Media & Hillary time to defuse the situation, and still prevail on November 8.
If they don't drop the grenade in Her campaign's foxhole in time, then they're part of Her corrupt team.
