Oh Lordy – Senator Johnson Outlines Scope of FBI Officials Sculpting Clinton Exoneration
The Last Refuge ^ | 12/14/2017 | sundance

Posted on 12/14/2017 9:48:31 PM PST by gubamyster

Senator Ron Johnson sends a letter to current FBI Director Christopher Wray questioning the surrounding investigative details about how the James Comey (July 5th, 2016) exoneration manuscript was changed and sculpted. (Full pdf below)

Within the letter Senator Johnson shares the changes that were made to the manuscript, and asks Wray if FBI officials are aware of who made the changes and why. Prior revelations from within an ongoing IG report showed FBI Counterintelligence Agent Peter Strzok participating in both the investigation of Hillary Clinton, and changing some of the manuscript to shape the narrative away from criminal conduct and toward Clinton’s favor.

Earlier information showed, via text messages with FBI lawyer Lisa Page, the scope of FBI Agent Strzok’s partisan efforts to influence the 2016 presidential election due to his personal political bias. Peter Strzok, Lisa Page and FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe appeared to be coordinating together on the Clinton investigation toward a united outcome. Director James Comey delivered that outcome to the American electorate.

Essentially today Senator Johnson is asking current FBI Director Wray if he is aware of any further FBI officials that would have also participated in this coordinated effort; and what measures Director Wray is taking to look into the ‘matter’:

I think he was just ion tucker- It sounded pretty much like toothless letter- He’s basically saying (If he was the same fella on tucker) that they can issue subpoenas but are powerless to enforce them if the FBI doesn’t wish to provide the info-

Dershowitz was on right after basically saying kind of the same thing, and stating that he doesn’t feel hillary should have been found guilty even though she and huma and FBI destroyed evidence- tucker essentially agreed- saying he broke with some conservative friends on the conviction issue- it was bizarre to hear both the first segment saying congress is powerless to enforce subpoenas and then tuck and dersh not feeling that public officials should be held accountable for destroying potentially devastating info

Dershowitz was pathetic tonight. He basically said politicians of Hillary's rank are beyond prosecution.

He has obediently returned home to his 1990s place on the Clinton ranch. Listening to his ham radio.

That is either BS from Johnson or, more likely, he doesn't know what he is talking about.

Read:

Inherent contempt

Under this process, the procedure for holding a person in contempt involves only the chamber concerned. Following a contempt citation, the person cited is arrested by the Sergeant-at-Arms for the House or Senate, brought to the floor of the chamber, held to answer charges by the presiding officer, and then subjected to punishment as the chamber may dictate (usually imprisonment for punishment reasons, imprisonment for coercive effect, or release from the contempt citation).

whoever it was was sounding like he was basically throwing in the towel- still gonna go ahead with the subpoenas, but then only say “Oh well folks, we tried, but they refused to give us the answers we sought, and now we’re powerless to do anything about it- but don’t hate us for it- We certainly tried out best’

[[He basically said politicians of Hillary’s rank are beyond prosecution.]]

Tucker was too for agreeing with him- and that EVEN AFTER he had previously said in essence, in other interviews, that America’s outrage lies in the fact that if we citizens did the same thing we’d be prosecuted for it and likely convicted- to which the person he was speaking with then agreed- so basically he did a complete 180 tonight agreeing with dersh- unless i misunderstood him- but i don’;t think i did?

Also was that senator johnson who was on first

Disband their 702 foreign surveillance program back door using FISA courts as a cloaked weapon. They misused it so they lose it.

Tucker is pretty good at cross examination. But he has a bad habit of conceding his guest’s prior statement as a basis to set up his next question. Bad form and not necessary. It showed tonight with Dershowitz and that greasy Rat spokesthing that came on next.

WOW!- just caught the opening of hannity- info overload-

Here’s the new catch phrase IF someone wishes to run with it and make a bunch of money:

“Exhortation before the Investigation”

Someone could make up some T’shirts and bumper stickers and earn a fortune!

Anyways- Wow- lots and lots of corruption going on in the investigation- hard to even follow it all there’s so much

"Johnson, who rejoiced when another rat stole a senate seat?."

Yes, that Johnson.

He was against Moore for all the same reasons most of the party was against Moore - including Trump at one time. Johnson gave his opinion of Moore, again nothing unique, but he did not campaign against him.

Get over the Moore thing. I, like Trump in the end, wanted Roy to win. It was AL Republicans who stayed home in droves Tuesday which caused his defeat. They know the ex-judge far better than WI residents do. It's their state, it was their decision. Move on.

I realize Freepers sometimes think 100 perfect potential senators and 435 perfect potential congressmen are just sitting around somewhere and waiting to take these jobs. But that is silly nonsense.

Johnson is analogous to Donald Trump at the state level here in WI. A very successful business man who mostly self-financed his campaign to knock a horribly liberal senator out of DC - Russ Feingold. Feingold was essentially a Clinton minus the trail of crimes and bodies behind him. In other words, a viable and rising very liberal Dem star. Shot down in his prime by Johnson - a TEA party fave at the time. This was something we WI residents never dreamed possible, we assumed Feingold was in for life.

Thank the Lord for Sen Ron Johnson. Flaws and all he represents something many Freepers don't seem to comprehend - a gigantic but imperfect move in the right direction. He is not a perfect legislator who descended from heaven or any, but then mature folks understand that such candidates don't exist.

If Feingold was still there, Trump would have one more sworn enemy, the Senate would have one less Republican and WI would have two Dem Senators instead of one.

What this article is saying is that Johnson is doing his Constitutional duty, as chair of the committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs. Asking, rather firmly, for any additional info Wray has regarding the Comey / Clinton mischief. And demanding it soon. It's Ron's job. He's doing it pretty well.

If you feel it would help things, please reveal your perfect choice to challenge Johnson in WI.

I’d say watch what happens to McCabe.

There is no good explanation for a meeting in his office with two losers like Strzok and Page discussing an election “insurance policy”.

My guess is he “retires” soon, possibly tomorrow night, or next friday.

"...two losers like Strzok and Page..."

People with high security clearances who cheat on their spouses should immediately lose the clearance, be de-briefed and probably lose their jobs - depending on the position.

I had a Secret clearance in my service years, which is not super-hard to achieve. But even so, it was drilled into us that infidelity and bad habits like gambling and such are signs of someone easily blackmailed by the bad guys.

Strzok likely had/has a clearance two steps above that and he is a train wreck regarding personal discipline.

One wonders just what limitations someone like Strzok would consider appropriate when facilitating an "insurance policy?" These are chilling times.

Don’t leave Page off the hook. Is she the honey pot that instigates? What are her Russian ties?

I agree.

I don't know the answers to your questions. But with what we DO know already, even if she has no Ruskie ties, these two are already likely to go down in history as the internal affairs version of the Rosenbergs.

Perhaps the libs will join our call for justice if this time we power the electric chair with wind - I believe Obama is available.

Give them two options:

Sing.

-or-

Sing Sing.
