    Can we please roll this thread into the existing ones about the #releasethememo conspiracy theory?

    They are all about the same thing.

    Members of the FBI are not required to be weird robots with no opinion about political figures or current events.

    You'd be hard pressed to find someone with enough brain cells to work in a job like that who doesn't think Trump is a fucking moron. Hell most of the White House staff he works with every day think the same thing by all accounts...

    It's not enough to say "this person doesn't like Trump, therefore everything they do is politically motivated". You need proof of the latter.

    I mean, but I guess attacking the FBI is "patriotic" now, despite the FBI being largely pro-Trump being a total non-issue throughout the campaign.

    95% of all federal employee donations in 2016 went to Clinton.

    Also, if the FBI truly was nonpartisan, it wouldn't have refused the FOIA request for the Clinton probe files due to "lack of public interest"

    Gee I wonder why people who join the public service despite its fairly miserable pay might have an issue with electing someone manifestly incompetent.

    Maybe we'll find them alongside Trump's millions of missing election dollars

    Incompetence? Like "losing" 5 months of communication when you're the fucking FBI?
    Oh, excuse my wrongthink. Of course any government agency is not to be questioned for its motives.

    No, incompetence as in making less money in business investments than one would have investing in the S&P 500 over a similar period.

    Again, totally unrelated to the charge that the FBI investigation is acting improperly in any way.

    But let's entertain this notion - wouldn't most of those federal employees in 2016 have been appointed during the Obama years?

    Who was the secretary of state during the Obama years ? I wonder?

    Did the FBI lose the information or simply misplace it to be found at a later time?

    Cheers

    There's more evidence of FBI corruption against candidate Trump than there is of a Trump-Russia espionage conspiracy.

    And it's laughable that people point out the texts are before Mueller's appointment, they seem to conveniently forget that Mueller's investigation subsumed all the FBI investigative work that had been going on before his appointment, since July 2016. Suddenly the Carter Page FISA, the Steele Dossier getting passed to the FBI, all of it before Mueller is irrelevant.

    There's a word that Edge would use for that sort of argument.

    Does everyone still literally forget that the FBI was referred to as "Trumpland" throughout the campaign because of how rabidly pro-Trump and anti-Hillary the rank and file were?

    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...y-donald-trump

    Edit: Oh shit, I missed the "STEELE DOSSIER TRIGGERED INVESTIGATION" lie again. It didn't, and we already know that it was the Papadopolous spouting at his mouth that triggered any red flags first - https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/30/u...adopoulos.html

    Also, Carter Page who was periodically under legal surveillance on and off since 2014? Oh heavens be!

    No seriously, how is that relevant to allegations that the Mueller inquiry is doing anything improper?

    Well so much for any remaining shred of credibility you were trying to maintain.

    I love your incredibly narrow definition of "evidence" and "corruption" when it comes to the Trump administration, but incredibly broad when it comes to Mueller. Kek.

    There is? Where's this evidence?

    Cite McCarthy no less than 3 times please.

    As usual the few people posting about "evidence" apparently imagine they know more than anyone in the Justice Dept.

    You are claiming that the FBI is a partisan LIBERAL organization???

    Zero evidence of corruption, just personal/private opinions of agents. If financial support of a candidate from within your own party is evidence of "corruption" then we are going to have to throw away our entire political system and start from scratch, because that is the norm for just about every office from city councils on up. Evidence of collusion between Trump and Russia is hidden in an ongoing investigation, so well see if your statement holds or not. I'm going to go out on a limb and say not.

    So, you basically want Trump supporters to be FBI investigators? Or do you not want to have them have the ability to have political opinions? Because, they, unlike you, aren't robots.

    NOT EVEN FUCKING CLOSE. You have your head shoved so far in a hole, be it the sand or up someone's ass to even make a bullshit comment like that.

    Maybe theres an innocent explanation for the Obama's FBI accidentally deleting 5 months of emails.. i mean texts. Losing them to a technical glitch as they claimed. Hopefully there was no sabotage motive at all.
