This is all becoming reminiscent of a Kafka novel and is very disturbing.

For spies, spymasters, intel analysts, and interrogators, all this stuff is pretty normal and expected.

They just don’t talk about it, because the shadow world is a bit different than the MainSewerManipulation propaganda they put out.

The WSJ hires from the exact same pool of J-school graduates — that’s why.

Murdock’s politics are to the LEFT of the GOP.

Starting with unlimited immigration.

The person who actually pulled the real “Tawana Brawley” was repeatedly invited to Obama’s White House for private meetings. Nice to know that manju thinks a murderous antisemitic demagogue like Sharpton is a big joke.

Senator Ron Johnson is no bozo. He is a small industrialist and businessman who beat the odds and with no political experience managed to get elected – twice – as a Republican in a blue state. He is my hero for one thing he’s accomplished. He is the man responsible for the 20% small business exclusion in the tax reform bill just enacted. He was willing to scuttle the law without it. There are countless small businesses that will use it to expand and hire.

I didn’t realize at first that this was the product of Sen Ron Johnson, the bozo who tried to tell us a week or so ago that an “informant” collaborated the existence of a “secret society” within the FBI.

Sorry guys, but this ones going nowhere faster than Seth Rich and Uranium-One. My advice: if one your peeps on Team Red is caught pulling a Tawana Brawley, wait at least 2 years before giving them the benefit of the doubt.

Irony of ironies, indeed….

Except that the loyal opposition doesn’t “do” irony; at least not in this case. (The stakes are too high and this uppity President must be destroyed—so who has time for irony?)

And no, they don’t accept that “Strzok/Page” has anything to tell them.

(It’s just GOP “obfuscation”, you see.)

Crickets. Nothing to see here. Move on.

This, the biggest government scandal since Watergate, with some believing it’s far worse.

Tx, Tom. I think you hafta be right about people talking to the IG–and Congress. Knowledge of this stuff was bound to trickle out from the inner circle. That’s clear in the case of the Hillary email investigation MYE (Mid Year Exam), since there would have been multiple agents working on it, and not all among the Illuminati of the Bureau, so to speak. But even on the Carter Page/Steele cases, I think knowledge must’ve trickled out. People talk, people make educated guesses, etc.

Speaking of guesses, my guess re the reopening–and it is a guess–runs along these lines. Because of the adverse publicity Comey decided that some public gesture had to be made to maintain the reputation of the Bureau–and, more importantly, his own reputation. He probably did this on the supposition that, even if this hurt her a bit, she still had the election in the bag at that point. Given what the FBI already knew about her, as President she was unlikely to exact petty revenge.

Mark, I think you’re correct – but I think it went further than just maintaining Comey’s reputation. I think there was a mutiny underway with Agents threatening to go public – just before the election with bombshell info on the bias of the previous “investigation” and the fact that the FBI was sitting on Weiner’s laptop.

I find it very strange that no explanation has come forward to why this happened when it did – except that Comey didn’t like Hillary, which clearly doesn’t make sense based on the prior whitewash. Why isn’t the mainstream media interested in this story? Hmm.

Tx, Tom, I should’ve thought that through before responding. It seems clear that there are unhappy agents now who are willing to talk to IG/Congress, so there’s every reason to suppose that they were unhappy back then, too, and might’ve said so.
