gets to the president, the more promoting the theory there was a conspiracy to help hillary clinton, hurt donald trump. according to the theory presented for hours on end every night it was a secret project that began way back at clinton e-mail probe continuing into the ru russia investigation. tough to buy, not least of which, two officials overseeing those, comey first, mueller, are both republicans. lifelong ones. and if the fbi had been in the tank for hillary clinton, they could have done a lot more to try to make her win. leaked the fact there was an open investigation of donald trump campaign manager paul manafort during the campaign. and carter page during the campaign. based on probable cause page was a foreign agent. instead, someone fed a bogus story to the new york times, the fbi found no clear links between the trump campaign and
it s disheartening, it s disheartening for them, for my friends who still work there. i wish americans could see what the counterintelligence folks do at the fbi. they would be proud of this. and it is based on nothing but partisan sh partisanship for them to be maligned in that fashion. malcolm, you had something you wanted to add? he s right. i love the bureau guys. when it comes to collection, they re the intelligence brands of the domestic united states. usually in operations i was involved with, sometimes our agencies would loan them transcribers in foreign languages and things like that. but when it comes to the national intelligence gum shoeing, going after people who are spies, traitors to the united states, they re really good at that job. and i suspect their being really good at that job is why the administration is maligning them. they don t know what kind of truck is about to hit them with the fbi. when they get their teeth into it, get down to the bottom of
