Jim Jordan Makes the Case Against the FBI and Peter Strzok
Powerline ^ | December 7,2017 | John Hinderaker

Posted on 12/07/2017 3:11:55 PM PST by Hojczyk

Jordan acts like he knows something we don’t. If he is right, this is the biggest scandal in American political history:If you want to understand the news that has been swirling around the FBI’s Peter Strzok, who played a key role in both the Hillary Clinton email investigation and Robert Mueller’s wide-ranging Russia probe (including interviewing General Flynn), you should watch this riveting seven-minute video of Congressman Jim Jordan interrogating FBI Director Christopher Wray earlier today. Wray was testifying before the House Judiciary Committee.

Jordan does a beautiful job of tying together the Strzok-related stories that have bubbled to the surface in recent days. He keeps it clean, too, not even mentioning that Strzok’s anti-Trump messages were exchanged with his illicit lover, FBI lawyer Lisa page, who also was discharged from Mueller’s team. Jordan expresses the suspicion that Strzok, on behalf of the FBI, collaborated with the Clinton campaign and, ultimately, Russian sources to produce the fake Trump dossier.

Jordan further suspects that it was Strzok, a virulent Trump-hater, who took the false Russian information in the dossier and dressed it up as a FISA court application, which in turn generated an order allowing the Obama administration to spy on the Trump campaign. Wray refuses to comment.

It was a masterpiece. Get ready to watch one Peter Strzok plead the 5th next week before Congress and on national tv. Let the fireworks begin...

“Wray needs to be fired.”

Approved 92-5 by the senate. The swamp knew he would carry the water for the corrupt state.

Like Rosenstein, Wray must have been a Sessions recommendation. /rolleyes

“Wray needs to be fired.”

Wray answered the ONLY way he could. He did not deny what Jordan was saying, he only said he could not respond to the question in the public setting in which the question was asked. And if what Jordan was suggesting is true, then we are dealing with a catastrophic political scandal, and Wray would not want to fan the flames by answering the question as presented. Wray answered EXACTLY how I would have answered had I been in his shoes.

A very nice summary of Collusion with the Russians in Election 2016.

But, oops, it was the Dems doing the colluding. Quick, someone please call Mueller office and let him know.

“Wray is an opaque swamp dweller.”

Then you need to blame Trump for naming him to the position.

I think Trump is smarter than that.

The most important part is at the end:

“Jordan acts like he knows something we don’t. If he is right, this is the biggest scandal in American political history.”

Apparently not.
Note that Rip van Sessions was able to appoint Deep Swamp dweller RosenKrantz to run the DOJ ilo Rip.

A Sessions pick is my assumption, as well.

Wray and all these swamp swimmers from the JD and FBI stiff congressional oversight and pledge their allegiance and respects first and foremost and wholly to the INSPECTOR GENERAL, and not to the representatives for the people.

This is getting outrageous. The investigative congressional OVERSIGHT committees are getting smuggly worked over and publicly humiliated.

Perhaps the committees deserve it. They actually have no authority to correct anyone or anything, anywhere, and should be embarrassed to pretend they do.

Jim Jordan and others on the committee disagree. It looks to me like Wray is hiding behind the all too convenient "it's classified" excuse. Tump should address that problem.

And if what Jordan was suggesting is true, then we are dealing with a catastrophic political scandal, and Wray would not want to fan the flames by answering the question as presented.

Not sure what you mean by fan the flames.

"Wray joined the government in 1997 as an Assistant United States Attorney for the Northern District of Georgia. In 2001, he moved to the Justice Department as Associate Deputy Attorney General and Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General.[12] On June 9, 2003, President George W. Bush nominated Wray to be the 33rd Assistant Attorney General in charge of the Criminal Division of the Justice Department. Wray was unanimously confirmed by the Senate on September 11, 2003.[13][14][15] Wray was Assistant Attorney General from 2003 to 2005, working under Deputy Attorney General James Comey. While heading the Criminal Division, Wray oversaw prominent fraud investigations, including Enron.[12][16] In March 2005, Wray announced that he would resign from his post.[17] He officially resigned on May 18, 2005.[18][19]

In 2005, Wray received the Edmund J. Randolph Award, the Justice Department's highest award for public service and leadership.[14]"

Not so much...

“Jordan acts like he knows something we don’t. If he is right, this is the biggest scandal in American political history.”

Known to every sober and rational person watching 8 years of an enemy combatant as ‘commander in chief’. 8 years of marxists, maoists, and muslims in charge of the executive branch.

This is not a scandal...A scandal is diddling an intern in the oval office. This is a conspiracy of high treason.
