footnote 83 - page 96
83 The OIG also has not reviewed the highly classified information.
Get a grip, it is over, there is nothing here. End of story. We been had big time if we were believing anything was coming out of this.
Actually I correct myself, the FBI is going to give some kind of ethics training to their people. ETHICS TRAINING?
If you have to give ethics training to individuals who are sworn to follow ethical standards, you are admitting the whole place is a joke. So, I guess that is a result of sorts. Knock yourself out.
This is from the conclusions part of the report. May not be as bad as some might think:
“First, we found that several FBI employees who played critical roles in the investigation sent political messages—some of which related directly to the Midyear investigation—that created the appearance of bias and thereby raised questions about the objectivity and thoroughness of the Midyear investigation. Even more seriously, text messages between Strzok and Page pertaining to the Russia investigation, particularly a text message from Strzok on August 8 stating “No. No he’s not. We’ll stop it.” in response to a Page text “[Trump’s] not ever going to become president, right? Right?!,” are not only indicative of a biased state of mind but imply a willingness to take official action to impact a presidential candidate’s electoral prospects. This is antithetical to the core values of the FBI and the Department of Justice. While we did not find documentary or testimonial evidence that improper considerations, including political bias, directly affected the specific investigative actions we reviewed in Chapter Five, the conduct by these employees cast a cloud over the entire FBI investigation and sowed doubt about the FBI’s work on, and its handling of, the Midyear investigation. It also called into question Strzok’s failure in October 2016 to follow up on the Midyear-related investigative lead discovered on the Weiner laptop. The damage caused by these employees’ actions extends far beyond the scope of the Midyear investigation and goes to the heart of the FBI’s reputation for neutral factfinding and political independence.”
The OIG report states that FBI sent political messages that create appearances of bias and raises questions about objectivity. So it is about far more people than just Strzok and Page.
The OIG did not find “documentary or testimonial evidence that that improper considerations, including political bias, ...”, this conclusion specifically states that, “ the conduct by these employees cast a cloud over the entire FBI investigation and sowed doubt about the FBI’s work on, and its handling of, the Midyear investigation.” In other words, the FBI and DOJ employees did not give him documents or testimony admitting their bias. Of course they didn’t; those corrupt people were not going to sign their own indictment and admit their crimes.The OIG is not saying there wasn’t bias, because this same paragraph clearly states that he believes their was bias.
If you scroll down to Attachment H, you will see a diagram of a number of high-ranking FBI personnel exchanging phone calls with reporters, including over 20 each between the Director (had to be Comey) and a “special Agent” with a particular reporter.
Hard to see how Comey can avoid prosecution for these crimes. The others have real problems, too.
Don’t tell me to get a grip. I’m fine. You’re the one having a psychotic meltdown over this. There’s more coming. Go curl up in a fetal position and suck your thumb. You can come out after everyone else that’s not a quitter has done all the heavy lifting for you.
N0w that this playbook has been created there is nothing to keep the next election will have been given the green light to subvert the next election. They have worked out the major impediments to wire taps, spy insertions into a political campaign thought not desirable. The confabulation of dociers given the imprimatur of the FBI will be refined. On and on. This rivals the perversion of the report on the Kennedy killing. The lies have become the truth. Vice has been codified by Mr. Horowitz. As Churchill said, “They are riding a tiger and cannot get off”. They approach the moment of dismounting the back of the people and he will turn and the tiger will strike. This crap has probably been written for months, just like Comey exoneration of clinton.
Thank you. People have to get beyond the headlines today are read the whole report.
People who were expecting a document like the FBI keeps giving the Intel committee's should be pleasantly surprised.
I've read several other OIG reports and I believe his standard is that nothing or almost nothing should be redacted in them, and he seems to have hit his mark on this report.
Perhaps but I read the FBI is now giving ethical training to agents regarding comments during investigations. That is what the Director thinks of the conclusions. Unless they reopen the entire Hitlery matter and investigate it the way they should have in the first place, which I give about a 1 in a trillion chance happens, the conclusions will result in nothing more than the “mistakes were made, ethical standards may have been stretched but in the end the results were what they should have been”.
Compare the Hitlery “investigation” into what is going on with Trump and what they are doing to him is what they should have done with her. That is bias no matter what the IG says but his report is what we have to go by.
Why was there no conclusion that hillary repeatedly violated the law? Because this is a white wash!!! It is DIRECTLY relevant to the sham investigation by the FIB and the criminal conspiracy to obstruct justice by the entire cabal!! This report is laughable.
The OIG report states that FBI sent political messages that create appearances of bias and raises questions about objectivity. So it is about far more people than just Strzok and Page.

Yup.
Check out this text exchange clipped from a Reddit user on The_Donald. The text message exchange leads me to believe FBI agents are a subset of Democrat Underground users, and that back-flipping, disco-dancing, gun-shooting FBI agent is representative of the current “caliber” of FBI “Special” agents...

10:39:49, Agent 1: “I find anyone who enjoys [this job] an absolute fucking idiot. If you dont think so, ask them one more question. Who are you voting for? I guarantee you it will be Donald Drumpf.”
10:40:13, Agent 5: “i forgot about drumpf…”
10:40:27, Agent 5: “that’s so sad and pathetic if they want to vote for him.”
10:40:43, Agent 5: “someone who can’t answer a question”
10:40:51, Agent 5: “someone who can’t be professional for even a second” On September 9, 2016, Agent 1 and Agent 5 exchanged the following instant messages.

08:57:23, Agent 5: “:)
“Go curl up in a fetal position and suck your thumb. You can come out after everyone else that’s not a quitter has done all the heavy lifting for you.”
Sounds like a pathetic attempt to make a come back when someone tries to promote a sense of reality to someone’s closed minded opinions based on dreams.
You are welcome. ;)
Justice. Moreover, as we describe in Chapter Nine, in assessing Strzok’s decision to
prioritize the Russia investigation over following up on the Midyear-related
investigative lead discovered on the Weiner laptop in October 2016, these text
messages led us to conclude that we did not have confidence that Strzok’s decision
was free from bias.
Take YOUR whiny pathetic reality and stuff it. I’ll continue to fight on.
This was a BIG F U TRUMP! AND (they throw an extra bone)by the way to celebrate your birthday here’s a little gift from the NY AG!! This shit is UNFREAKIN UNBELIEVABLE!! This was all rigged for the sole purpose of mocking trump and his base!! If we don’t take to the streets we DON’T DESERVE THIS COUNTRY OR this PRESIDENT!!
Hard to see how Comey can avoid prosecution for these crimes. The others have real problems, too.
I assume that Comey is authorized as Head of the Agency to speak to reporters. He may even authorize himself to declassify things in those conversations.
I don't think you will see any prosecution of Comey or talking to the press, and I'm not sure that one is warranted.
One of the only reasons McCabe is in trouble for it is what he was saying to the press were self-serving lies about somethings that had to do with him.
The others may be in more trouble, or not. It's not against the law to talk to a reporter in each and every instance.
lots of FBI poeple talking to the media...
In addition to the significant number of communications between FBI
employees and journalists, we identified social interactions between FBI employees
and journalists that were, at a minimum, inconsistent with FBI policy and
Department ethics rules. For example, we identified instances where FBI
employees received tickets to sporting events from journalists, went on golfing
outings with media representatives, were treated to drinks and meals after work by
reporters, and were the guests of journalists at nonpublic social events. We will
separately report on those investigations as they are concluded
Page 417:
11:02:22, FBI Employee: “All the people who were initially voting for
her would not, and were not, swayed by any decision the FBI put out.
Trump’s supporters are all poor to middle class, uneducated, lazy POS
that think he will magically grant them jobs for doing nothing. They
probably didn’t watch the debates, aren’t fully educated on his policies,
and are stupidly wrapped up in his unmerited enthusiasm.”
Slap on the wrist.
