Nunes: 'Good FBI Agents' Told Us About Weiner Laptop At the Time, 'But We Couldn't Do Anything'
CNS news ^ | 06/15/2018 | Susan Jones

Posted on 06/15/2018 10:15:41 AM PDT by Rusty0604

On Thursday night, Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), the chairman of the House intelligence committee, said for the first time that he knew about the discovery of Clinton emails on Weiner's computer early on, but he couldn't say anything because the information was classified.

We had whistle-blowers that came to us in late September of 2016 who talked to us about this laptop sitting up in New York that had additional emails on it. The House intelligence committee, we had that, but we couldn't do anything with it."

Nunes said he remembers learning about the emails on Weiner's laptop in "late September."

"So good FBI agents brought this to our attention, but what could we do with it? ...Because you know why I say that, because it was all classified and this is the game that Comey and company have been playing, that they hide behind this (classification).

Things haven't changed much at the FBI, Nunes said: "I think the same people in charge today still think they can run the clock out, and they are are trying to run the clock out for the rest of the Congress so we can't finish our investigations."

Host Laura Ingraham asked him, "Are there still people in the FBI today who believe they operate by a different set of rules?"

"At the top. At the top, I think that is still true," Nunes replied.

Trump needs to declassify every item Mueller has lots of roots to his data justice to ensue.

“Good FBI agents” must be like the fictional “hooker with a heart of gold” in one of those pulp-auctions.

What’s the point of having whistleblowers if Nunes is just going to sit on it for 2 years?

The FBI has 35,000 employees that they let us know about. My prediction is that nothing will happen to change the culture, that’s just too big to do much about when the voting public is so disengaged. It would be interesting to know the FBI voting split between dem and pub. Fed employees campaign contributions went to Hillary by 90% , if I recall. Can’t see the FBI being too different.

If Dems fail to take Congress in November, it looks like there’ll be a watershed at that point. These people are just holding their breadths hoping they can get Nunes, Grassley, etc., shut down before they get to the truth.

Yes, The FBI, the Political Muscle Arm of the RAT Party!

“Couldn’t do anything about it.”??? What the hell are paying these people for? We would be better served by elephants and donkeys. They’re cheaper, don’t have to put up with their BS and Congress would be a cleaner place.

Vote animal in November.

It all leads back to Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009

ALL of them failed to uphold the Constitution and that’s what they are protecting.

I wondered the same thing. Maybe since everyone at the higher level in the DOJ/FBI were involved, they didn’t know who else to turn to.

“There’s nothing we can do” was the slogan of the GOP during the Obama years, even after they had control of both sides of Congress.

Well, it was classified, so who were they going to tell, Obama?

These FBI thugs belong in prison... There's a reason our founding fathers did NOT want a national police force...

Exactly I know Obama sure did want to nationalize our police officers.

Even if the dems do retake congress there’s still a couple of months between the election and the swearing in on the new congress, so any outgoing critters can feel free to leak and expose and let the American people know what’s going on within the confines of the swamp.

Yeah, we’d probably find out lots more but at the cost of any chance at justice.

Yes, he did. And the FBI wanted that too - gives them immense power - the power of a being a key player in a Police State.

The FBI was doing it by giving ‘training’ to top cops in every city - ostensibly to be able to ‘hit the ground running’... when it fact it was tying local large city police organizations to their ‘family’.

This situation is much worse than anyone imagines....
