FBI’s Three Favorite Narrative Engineers Update Background Status of IG Report…
The Conservative Treehouse / Last Refuge ^ | Nov 6, 2019 | Sundance

Posted on 11/06/2019 8:26:17 AM PST by Jack Black

When former FBI ‘small group’ members Andrew McCabe, James Baker, Mike Kortan, Peter Strzok and Lisa Page were working on their political operation to protect Hillary Clinton and remove Donald Trump they had three specific journalists (narrative engineers) atop their speed dials.

Texts, emails, and documents released over the past three years showed that whenever the small group wanted to leak they preferred: Devlin Barrett, Robert Costa and Matt Zapotosky at the Washington Post. [Example – source, pg 5]

So when we see Barrett, Costa and Zapotosky getting the gang back together to write about the upcoming IG report, it is worth reviewing their carefully engineered narrative. [All emphasis mine]

(Via Washington Post) Justice Department officials are trying to release in the coming weeks a potentially explosive inspector general report about the FBI’s investigation into President Trump’s 2016 campaign, according to multiple people familiar with the effort.

Interesting start to the expository: “trying to release“; the implication here is somewhat of an internal struggle between two opposing forces. Those who are defending the deep state, and by extension the small group, and those attempting sunlight.

Of course the customary anonymous disclaimer “people familiar with the effort”, relates to those inside the FBI/DOJ who are still working earnestly to carry on the corrupt endeavor. Unfortunately it is not a surprise that FBI Director Chris Wray and AG Bill Barr have no removed the career resistance operatives inside the institutions.

[…] One person involved in the discussions said the target date for the report’s release has been Nov. 20, but another indicated that the Justice Department is unlikely to deliver it by then and that it is more likely to come after Thanksgiving because of the complicated and contentious mix of legal, classification and political issues at play.

Where “complicated and contentious” is again representative of the internal dynamic between those who are hell bent on covering-up the corruption, and those who are less inclined. Those who want the full disinfecting distribution want a faster release; those who want the diluted version, prefer delay.


It's a long article, with a lot of links, read the rest at the source.

A bloody Stain..

If they get away with this, there will be a next time and next time will make this time seem like child’s play.

Next time they’ll go full Stalin/Hitler on our asses.

I am amazed that the IG report has not been released.

President Trump should release a completely unredacted version.

The delay? Redacting sensitive info. so certain bureaucrats are protected. Plea deals are being made via redaction/no redaction?

OUT ALL OF THESE DEEP STATE BA$TARDS NO MATTER WHO THEY ARE.

Let’s see.....the IG was appointed by Obama. So far nothing has come from any of the IG reports, zero.

Yet still people are waiting for arrests...that is too f’ing funny.

Get a grip, the report is being edited.

For the record, my answer to my own rhetorical question is “the full house votes on impeachment. The thing is editing can take a long time.
