Lying to FBI Is Illegal; How About the FBI Lying to Us?

December 2, 2017

While the liberal media is celebrating the announcement that former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn has pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI, a bigger scandal was practically ignored.

On Thursday , Judicial Watch released 29 pages of FBI emails regarding the inexcusable June 27, 2016 meeting between former President Bill Clinton and then Attorney General Loretta Lynch on the tarmac of the Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix, AZ. This meeting was not accidental, as Clinton purposely delayed the takeoff of his aircraft to arrange the supposedly impromptu encounter with the Attorney General.

According to Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton, “These new FBI documents show the FBI was more concerned about a whistle-blower who told the truth about the infamous Clinton-Lynch tarmac meeting than the scandalous meeting itself.”

In the midst of a FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton’s “extremely careless” handling of top secret email communications, Lynch held a secretive meeting with her husband. This bombshell information would have never been made public if not for the investigative work of Phoenix television anchor Christopher Sign, who received a tip about the meeting from a “trusted source.”

With an ongoing Justice Department investigation into the improper handling of email communications, it was highly improper for Lynch to agree to the meeting with Bill Clinton just days before FBI agents would interview his wife. Once confronted about the tarmac meeting, Lynch claimed they only discussed golf and grandchildren, which is a completely ludicrous explanation for the 30-minute meeting.

If the meeting was so innocent, why did the Justice Department withhold key documents for so long? After an initial July 7, 2016 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request by Judicial Watch for documents pertaining to the meeting, the Justice Department claimed that nothing could be located. Only after an official FOIA lawsuit did the department provide the various FBI email exchanges.

As noted by Fitton, the real focus of the emails was to try to locate the leaker who exposed the meeting. One unidentified FBI agent lamented that the meeting was disclosed to the press and claimed that “We need to find that guy” in order to get him fired or sanctioned by his supervisors. The emails show that the FBI believed the source was a Phoenix police officer and one agent expressed a desire to ban the officer from being involved in future security details.

This anger is very indicative of what is wrong with the FBI today. The source who leaked news of the meeting to the local media did a real public service and should be commended. Americans had a right to know that the Attorney General was involved in a questionable meeting while an investigation was purportedly ongoing.  Unfortunately, instead of congratulating the source, the FBI wanted to punish this individual, obviously because they wanted to protect the reputation of the Attorney General and the presidential aspirations of Hillary Clinton.






The FBI should be impartial, not be taking sides in political campaigns. The bureau was obviously politically comprised, much like the IRS during their unfair harassment of Tea Party groups.

In any vigorous and honest FBI investigation, agents should be outraged if the Attorney General held a secret meeting with the spouse of the subject being examined for wrongdoing. Instead agents showed only concern about identifying the police officer who caused the embarrassment. This nonchalant attitude was not shared by Lynch who admitted that the ill-advised meeting “cast a cloud” on the Justice Department’s investigation into Hillary Clinton.

 These disclosures lead to the distressing conclusion that the Hillary Clinton investigation was a sham from the very beginning. In fact, when Clinton was finally interviewed by the FBI on July 2, 2016, she was not under oath and there was no recording of the meeting. Several weeks earlier, before the FBI had interviewed Clinton or 17 key witnesses in the investigation, then FBI Director James Comey had already begun drafting her exoneration statement.

These unusual procedures were denounced by U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and U.S. Senator Lindsay Graham (R-SC) in a joint statement. According to the Senators, “Conclusion first, fact-gathering second—that’s no way to run an investigation.  The FBI should be held to a higher standard than that, especially in a matter of such great public interest and controversy.”




Of course, the Senators are right as the FBI’s handling of this matter was atrocious. A mere three days after the inadequate interview of Clinton, Comey announced that she would not be indicted despite what many legal analysts believe were her clear violations of federal law.

Evidently, the FBI, under the direction of James Comey, had no intention of ever truly investigating Hillary Clinton and bringing charges against her. If there was ever an issue that needed a Special Counsel investigation, it is not “Russian collusion,” but the Justice Department’s collusion with Hillary Clinton.

That 22% reminds me of the polls saying that's about the percentage of people who thought the country was heading in the right direction all during 2016 when Obama ended the year with a 1.5% GDP growth or was it 1.9%.

Well, he finally got the old tax bill.  I don't think much of it.  Will have to see how it goes, but at least it's not Zero any longer.

Yep, that old FBI investigation which has lasted about a year now and so far it appears it isn't going anywhere.  Trump is still President, thanks to you folks. In fact, thanks to all of you who helped get him elected by doing more than anyone could honestly ask anyone to do.  Thanks.

Only two Federal Criminal Indictments.  Seems like there should be a dozen or more by now.

Same with the Federal Criminal guilty pleas.  Lying is bad, really bad.  You do know that Comey already cleared him but ole Robert broke him, bankrupted him, interrogated him without counsel with false charges and said they were going after his son.  He agreed to cooperate with the Sicherheitsdiensts.

Everyone knows he's unpopular as hell.  He's especially unpopular in socialist, communist and dictatorship countries.  He only has a 5% popularity in Mexico. LOL  Wonder why?

I guess the time in politics is subjective.  I've been told that some things are off limits when it come to Clinton because she was a private citizen.  So, I'll stick with that reasoning.  He was a private citizen and not a politician.  

Now you compare the President to Pinocchio.  That means he far below the rest of the shit stains in the federal government when it comes to lying to the people.  Now that makes me wonder, why lying to the people is such a sore spot with you now and wasn't before this last Presidential campaigns and election?

But then again statues weren't offensive, arming drug lords wasn't something to be worried about, terrorist attacks were because of videos on youtube, Elizabeth Warren was part Native American, and a white NAACP official claimed to be black.

Even little Rachel Maddow proved Trump paid taxes. That was freaking HILARIOUS!

That was the funniest episode of Rachel Maddow's comedy shows I've ever watched. She teased for over 30 minutes, and when she released "the bombshell revelation" to show 2 pages of pubic record tax returns and that Trump actually paid taxes, she made it seem like she'd just revealed the cures for AIDS and cancer. Too funny. 

you want Trump's taxes so badly--get Harry Reid to get his inside person at the IRS to release them!

Sorry Tex, Harry Reid does not have the power to have someone's taxes released.  No one has this power, not even President Trump.   Tax returns are very personal, and very protected.  Rachel had that one year because Trump leaked it himself, probably because it was one of the few years he actually paid tax.

Now that's a good one.  Harry Reid had several friends and he could only reveal information they had given him by revealing it on the Senate Floor   We never heard him say that anywhere else, did we?  Now there is someone who out and out lied to us about Romney taxes and knew it..  Best advice I can give anyone is never trust a Liberal.  Trump might lie, but most of the time it is exaggerations.  Who cares if he did or didn't have the most job growth.  Anyone can check that out and verify it.

The IRS lied to us.  The President lied to us, "Not a smidgen of truth", when he knew he was lying so convincingly, I might add.  There's no low they will go to.  It was election time, "Obama was dead and Al Qaeda was on the run" except we know for sure one of those two was a lie, but they lied about it by promoting the video story.

You should stop displaying how much you don't know about what is being said here. It is not a matter of 'spin', two pages of his 2005 returns (not 2008, my mistake) were 'leaked' to the public, because they showed in THAT year he paid taxes. But if you paid attention to what was said about those two pages you would understand that return was made to make adjustments for many previous years when he did not pay.

Use your head, if Trump paid taxes in any manner that would be acceptable to the American voter, he would have posted them in neon on the Trump Tower.

You must keep in mind there are other aspects regarding his returns, like how much he gave in charities. Most charities he claimed he gave to have indicated he did not donate anything, or donated very little.

Also, much, if not all of the money he 'donated' came from the Trump Foundation, where he used funds that were donated to his foundation and then re-donated to various charities in his name. That is 'dirty pool', but that is the way he works. I also think donations made in that manner are illegal, and releasing his returns would reveal that little game and cause a bunch of trouble.

And it doesn't make any difference whether he paid any taxes or not.  If he didn't and was suppose to pay them the IRS would have been on him like fire ants on yours bare feet.  So will all the tax attorneys on here please raise you hand.  Whatever he did, he's not in jail and if he had done something illegal concerning his taxes he would be, so why worry yourself about his taxes.

There's no one that can honestly say no matter whether he paid, didn't pay or paid a little or a lot, the MSM would fool the fools into thinking he did something that was terrible and deserved years behind bars, although he isn't and the IRS must be satisfied with what he did.

They don't even realize the IRS has been the one to go over his taxes with a fine tooth comb and if he didn't pay a dime in taxes it was because he like they used every law on the books to do it legally.

But when the intelligence agencies tell us they aren't gathering information on us and it is proven to not be true, no big deal to them. Unmasking private citizens, no big dieal.  Carrying on in Congress and spending our money to cover for the harassment Congressmen have committed and they won't tell us who they were.  I'm kind of tired of the lying SOBs.

I agree.  If Trump was able to get away with paying little to nothing for tax in his life, good for him, I pay as little as possible myself, everyone does.  Trump could have released his taxes, pointed out how little he pays, said that if he's elected he would change things so people like him would have to pay their fair share, then did so once elected, and the left would love him for it along with his base.  I actually had some hope that Trump WOULD do good, centrist things for the country, he certainly wasn't bound by any rigid ideology.  Unfortunately, he's gone the total corporate puppet route.

This sort of dishonesty, corruption and unethical behavior likely will result in even further breakdown of civilized society over time.

Just as the flaunting of immigration laws leads to increased criminality as people apply their own moral relativism to their sphere of influence. 

Maybe, just maybe if the last administration hadn't bee so lax on immigration laws, there wouldn't be such a probelm with illegals in this country.  Maybe Kate Steinle would still be alive if the liberal shit hole in California enforced immigration law.

Exactly.

Early polls had Sanders defeating Clinton and then Sanders trouncing Trump by wider margins than Clinton against Trump.

Clinton supporters take great pleasure in saying the polls were wrong about Sanders and only polls that favor  Clinton are to be believed.

Even Biden said he knew Clinton was in trouble before the election.

Looking ahead to November’s general election, Sanders was 24 points ahead of Republican front-runner Donald Trump. He outpolled U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas by 12 points and held a four-point lead over Ohio Gov. John Kasich. Clinton, in sharp contrast, lost to Kasich by four points and held much narrower leads than Sanders over Cruz and Trump.

The Bloomberg survey was only the latest in a string of polls putting Sanders way ahead of Trump and doing consistently better than Clinton against Trump and the other Republicans in a general election. According to  RealClearPolitics , Sanders led Trump on average by 17.5 percentage points in national surveys in March. The U.S. senator from Vermont beat the real estate tycoon by 20 points in a CNN/ORC poll, 18 points in a poll for NBC News and The Wall Street Journal, 14 points in Fox News and Quinnipiac University polls and 15 points in a survey for CBS News and The New York Times.

Private polling for the Cruz campaign showed that Bernie would have beaten T-Rump in a landslide. The last poll I analyzed showed Bernie with a 5% prospective lead against Cruz.

Cruz vs Bernie was the real election, the one the people really wanted. Would have been a heck of a fight.

The only one that Hillary had a chance of beating was T-Rump. She was the worst candidate that could have been picked.... T-Rump was next on the list of worse.....

Just like the Republicans screwed over the popular candidate the cycle before, the Democrats did the same the last cycle.

Donald Trump worked his tail off and was in front of hundreds of thousands more people were during the campaign.  Hillary spent too much time thinking her big shots like the Rothchilds were going to elect her and neglected several states she really needed.  She was lazy.  Even Huma wrote an message to someone, I can't remember how she basically had to get her moving, so to speak.

The Democrats are every bit responsible for Donald Trump being President as anyone who voted for him for two reasons.  For never accepting Obama's faults for eight years and making Hillary Clinton their candidate.  I have to thank them because at least we got Trump, an often bumbling idiot, but not Hillary, the lying power hungry crook for President who was partly responsible for more wars than any other Secretary of State in history and had more baggage than a Greyhound bus.

For a president with historically   low   poll numbers,   Donald Trump   can at least find solace in this: Hillary Clinton is doing worse.

Trump’s 2016 Democratic rival is viewed favorably by just 39 percent of Americans in the latest Bloomberg National Poll, two points lower than the president. It’s the second-lowest score for Clinton since the poll started tracking her in September 2009.

The former secretary of state has always been a polarizing figure, but this survey shows she’s even lost popularity among those who voted for her in November.

More than a fifth of Clinton voters say they have an unfavorable view of her. By comparison, just 8 percent of likely Clinton voters felt that way in the final Bloomberg poll before the election, and just 6 percent of Trump’s voters now say they view him unfavorably.
