Another Horowitz hearing, overshadowed by impeachment theater — 7 Comments

  1. But there’s still a third possibility, which is that there are many cases with such “errors,” and that they all represent purposeful actions on the part of agents with the intent of framing targets, some for political reasons and some for other reasons. [Neo]

    Ugh, you’re right, that is a possibility. Call it the Julian Assange Loves Edward Snowden prospect. But I don’t believe it. I wish I could say I don’t believe it for one second, but that wouldn’t be the case, alas. Do you believe it?

  2. I’m 100% positive Richard Jewel would say the FBI “errors” were purposed with the intent to frame him as a target.

    Similarly the guy who Mueller wrongly targeted as the Anthrax bomber.

    Plus the actions to protect mobsters who were ratting out other mobsters, in Boston, I think.

    10%? 50%? There should be a non-FBI investigation into prior cases to find out, but it’s far too high.

    Chris Wray at the FBI should be fired, and somebody who’s dedicated to cleaning up the FBI should be hired. But maybe none “qualified” are really ready to do that.

    At least dozens of FBI / DOJ Deep State folk are guilty, maybe it’s hundreds; perhaps it’s thousands? The top guys are all expert boot-lickers and accountability avoiders, as well as dedicated, like Comey, to proclaiming the “good reputation” of the FBI, and claiming it’s earned.

    Maybe transfer most of the FBI work, and low level agents, to Homeland Security – and then shut down the FBI and fire all the top thru middle (top 5 Federal pay levels?). Just another dream.

  3. Tom Grey:

    There’s another way, as the BLM is finding out: transfer the agency to the heart of the country — i.e., Des Moines or Topeka. In the case of BLM, they’re moving to Grand Junction, CO. Not a bad city at all — unless you like living inside the Beltway, in which case it’s a terrible place. Or if you don’t like dry air. The FBI should just announce they’re moving to Topeka. Half the miscreants would resign. That’s a start.

  4. It is important to note that both hearings on this momentous report have been held in the Senate, not one in the committees of jurisdiction in the House.

    NOT ONE.

    The greatest political scandal in the history of our republic and the people’s House wants no part of it. What worse indictment of our politics could be made?

  5. The Democrats know better, especially the lawyers among them. They know exactly what Horowitz was saying [about not finding “documentary or testimonial evidence” of political bias], and they know that the absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

    It’s even worse than that. They’re trying to trick the public into believing that absence of a very specific kind of evidence is evidence of absence. And this very specific kind of evidence — explicitly admitting to bias in writing or testimony — is precisely what any wrongdoer with half a brain would know not to provide.

  6. “But there’s still a third possibility, which is that there are many cases with such “errors,” and that they all represent purposeful actions on the part of agents with the intent of framing targets, some for political reasons and some for other reasons.” — Neo

    I’ll take door number three.
    There is so much evidence, famiiar to all political junkies, that the agencies in DC (not solely the FBI, and not solely LEOs) persecute, frame, harass, and investigate individuals and groups for personal and political reasons.
    And those stories are just the known knowns.

  7. The only way to clarify this indictments. Absent those, no fact finding will ever be done, all the miscreants and felons will retire to their tax funded pensions and their bullshit memoirs.
