McCabe gets FIRED ! One down....about 7500 to go !

Yes, you are probably right, showing your hypocrisy is just too easy and getting old.
Thanks for the tip, 3-putt.
If that is your goal, you have yet to achieve that. The Trumpism of "Just say it and they'll believe it" only works with your fellow nutty fruitcakes, you aren't fooling anyone else.

That is the lefts tactic, the Kenyan perfected that one, but you know that, there is your hypocrisy, again.
 
Just what is the FBI hiding in its refusal to fork over documents for Nunes committee?
APRIL 5, 2018
Nunes is likely to win in the matter of wresting the pretext documents for the FBI's 2016 Trump investigation, as he always has, and still, the FBI do...
House Intelligence Committee chairman Devin Nunes is threatening another legal fight, this time over the Rosetta Stone of the Russia collusion investigation: the FBI document, (or E.C., for electronic communication) showing exactly what triggered it.

According to the Daily Wire:

On Wednesday, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-CA) sent a letter to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and FBI Director Christopher Wray that instructed them to produce unredacted copies of the documents that the FBI used as the basis to officially open up its Russia investigation.

It's significant because an FBI investigation of a presidential candidate that was begun right in the middle of a presidential campaign, apparently as an "insurance policy," as the texts of FBI lovebirds Peter Strzok and Lisa Page suggested, is unprecedented in a democratic system. If the pretext for the probe were anything but something serious about national security, it would be an FBI abuse of power. The FBI investigation also amounted to the building material that led to the appointment of the special counsel and that office's investigation of Russian collusion, something that has frequently thrown the Trump administration into turmoil and has resulted in firings and indictments of Trump's closest aides.

Byron York of the Washington Examiner has the best take on this:

The originating document has been the subject of much controversy. After some Republicans alleged that the FBI used never-verified parts of the Trump dossier as part of its reason to begin the investigation in July 2016, some "current and former" officials leaked to the New York Times that no, it was the case of George Papadopoulos, reported to U.S. authorities by foreign intelligence agents, that prompted the FBI investigation.

Nunes is the right man to be asking for this because he has been a determined digger in getting to the bottom of what really went down as the Deep State reacted against the prospect of a Trump presidency. The famous Nunes memo earlier this year, which was confirmed by FBI officials as all true, did signal that the infamous Steele dossier, of grotesque and untrue claims about Trump cooked up by a British anti-Trump partisan, was the premise for the investigation.

If the FBI were smart, it would just hand over the document and let the chips fall where they may. If mistakes were made, mistakes were made. Already the organization has seen turnover in its leadership, with the firings of Director James Comey and Deputy Director Andrew McCabe. They should be on safe ground to blame the past leaders and promise to do better next time.

But for some reason, even with Christopher Wray, a presumed conservative, at the helm of the organization, the people at the FBI don't want to cooperate. Is it because too many officials were involved in partisanship instead of focused on national security, and because of who will need to be fired? Is it because political operatives connected with the Democrats or the Hillary Clinton campaign were involved? Is it because the work was that sloppy? Is it because some new embarrassing detail is sure to come out, and they don't want it to? Is it stylistics – as in, they look like punks giggling in their supposedly investigative work on matters of national security? I don't know. Nunes seems to know; it's believed he's seen at least some of the documents and has reason to pry them in their entirety out, at a minimum to get the organization to end its partisanship and return to professionalism. It's pretty fourth-world, after all, when a nation's top security organization is openly busying itself with trying to overthrow a president instead of doing its job.

York points out that the bureau has slow-walked requests for documents before and will probably do it again this time. Those at the FBI have nothing to gain from this, given that Nunes is a dogged investigator determined to get to the bottom of the matter, and he will probably win. Still, they play their power games and force him as well as themselves to waste time and energy wresting the document from them. All they are doing is drawing more public attention to the matter. What are they hiding?
 
7 is better than 6.
You "Erned" it.
As has been said about Augusta, "It's like putting from the back of a bathtub and trying to get it to stop before it gets to the drain." Before Tiger went there back in the day he practiced putting on the Stanford basketball court trying to get the ball to stop on different stripes and spots.

I met Ernie Els some years back while I was hooking up a sink at one of his sponsor's houses. Nice guy. Absolute prince of a man.
I felt bad posting the carnage, but humor has casualties sometimes.

being used here by this DB Lawyer Micheal Avenatti .....Dragging out this stripper to slander and
besmirch a sitting President by disregarding contract Law. Now if the shoe was on the other foot
the MSM and the Democrats would be 24/7 obfuscating/distracting so this would go away.
Character assassination is the Democrats specialty.....

Former F.B.I. Deputy Director Is Faulted in Scathing Inspector General Report

WASHINGTON — The Justice Department inspector general delivered to Congress on Friday a highly critical report that accused Andrew G. McCabe, the former F.B.I. deputy director, of repeatedly misleading investigators.

The inspector general said that when investigators asked whether he had instructed aides to provide information in October 2016 to a reporter with The Wall Street Journal, Mr. McCabe said he did not authorize the disclosure and did not know who did.

But Mr. McCabe did approve the F.B.I.’s contact with the reporter, according to the review.

The newspaper article delved into a dispute between F.B.I. and Justice Department officials over how to proceed in an investigation into the financial dealings of the Clinton family’s foundation. It revealed a sensitive meeting during which Justice Department officials declined to authorize subpoenas or grand jury activity.

The inspector general also concluded that Mr. McCabe’s disclosure of the existence of the ongoing investigation in the manner described in the report violated media policy of the F.B.I. and Justice Department and constituted misconduct.


In a statement, Mr. McCabe said that he had full authorization to share this information with the media. Mr. McCabe also said that he did not intentionally mislead investigators.




The report, written by the inspector general, Michael E. Horowitz, was delivered to Congress and was expected to be released publicly later in the day

Mr. McCabe was fired in March after Attorney General Jeff Sessions rejected an appeal that would have let the 21-year F.B.I. veteran retire just hours before he was eligible for a full government pension.

At the time, Mr. Sessions said Mr. McCabe had repeatedly shown a lack of candor under oath. Mr. McCabe, 50, disputed that, saying his firing was meant to undermine the special counsel investigation being led by Robert S. Mueller III, and to discredit him as a witness.

The report’s release, which had been anticipated for months, comes days before the release of a memoir by James B. Comey, the former F.B.I. director who was fired by President Trump last May. The book, “A Higher Loyalty: Truth, Lies and Leadership,” is scheduled to be released on Tuesday, but details began to trickle out on Thursday night, including pointed criticisms of Mr. Trump.

In response, Mr. Trump unleashed a torrent of criticism of Mr. Comey Friday morning, calling him an “untruthful slime ball” and saying that the bureau’s investigation of Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server “will go down as one of the worst ‘botch jobs’ of history.”

Mr. Horowitz is expected to release a larger report in the coming weeks about the F.B.I.’s actions during the 2016 election.
