Comey’s Corruption Exposed… Again

Comey’s Corruption Exposed… Again

When egregious conduct occurs at the hands of a prominent, high-level government employee it’s very important that it be highlighted and memorialized for the sake of history. The actions of former FBI Director James Comey qualify as one of those instances.

When egregious conduct occurs at the hands of a prominent, high-level government employee it’s very important that it be highlighted and memorialized for the sake of history. The actions of former FBI Director James Comey qualify as one of those instances.

It has been several years since we were daily exposed to the facts of this corruption, so please allow me to briefly recap: James Comey is directly responsible for Deep State spying and the Russia Hoax. Comey, as sanctimonious as he is disingenuous, leaked classified information to falsely create the appearance of a need for a special counsel. This involved the Steele dossier lie—the false and misleading information funded by Hillary Clinton with campaign donations and used to secure FISA warrants—resulting in the fraudulent and hugely distracting two-year, $32 million taxpayer- inquisition by Robert Mueller that ‘found no collusion between President Trump’s campaign and Russia’—a pathetic episode of lawfare that Trump accurately and continually refers to as the “Russia Hoax.”

We now know that under Comey the FBI ignored evidence that it was being used by the Clinton campaign to fund and to execute a political dirty trick. This included intelligence the government received in July 2016 alleging that Mrs. Clinton had approved “a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisors to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by the Russian security services.” Comey briefed this material to President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden and Attorney General Loretta Lynch yet the FBI, nevertheless, ignored the demonstrably false, political nature of this “intelligence.” (Durham Report).

However, this week a story broke that Comey is now being investigated for setting in motion an off-the-book “honeypot” operation prior to the corrupt actions I have just highlighted. Apparently, Comey sent a pair of undercover female agents to compromise the 2016 Trump campaign. (A “honeypot” operation is an operational practice that involves the use of a covert agent (often female), to create a sexual or romantic relationship to compromise a target.)

According to the Washington Times, FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino are looking for a pair of once-undercover female employees who were allegedly directed to ingratiate their way into the Trump campaign as “honeypots” when traveling with the then-presidential candidate and his campaign team. (Blaze Media).

Blaze Media further reports that “an agency whistleblower revealed in a protected disclosure that shortly after Trump announced his bid for the presidency in June 2015, Comey deployed two undercover FBI agents to compromise the campaign at senior levels, gaining access and intelligence.”

This story further outlines that the “whistleblower report suggested that the operation was effectively a fishing expedition, as it did not appear to be targeting any specific crime; was intentionally hidden from the Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz during his review of possible FBI misconduct; was ultimately abandoned after one of the infiltrators had her cover blown; and served as possible evidence of institutional bias against Trump.” You think?!

I close with the article’s most damning observation: “The case had no predicated foundation, so Comey personally directed the investigation without creating an official case…Comey did not have a legitimate reason not to officially create an official investigation file or have a file number.” Comey later “bragged in 2018, for instance, that he probably wouldn’t have done or maybe gotten away with it in a more organized investigation, a more organized administration.”

The Washington Times reports that «The FBI whistleblower employee noted in the disclosure that one of the undercovers agreed to be transferred to the CIA so she would not be available as a potential witness. The other undercover employee was rewarded for her activities through a promotion in the bureau and is now a high-level FBI executive in a major field office.”

This is why the American people have lost faith in their national institutions. This is why Comey should be prosecuted.

Perhaps much closer to the feelings of millions of Americans is a social media post this past week: “I don’t care about inflation or the cost of eggs or anything else; I only want Trump to keep taking a blow torch to the whole corrupt, diseased system” until we have our government and country back and we have re-established what Thomas Jefferson referred to as a “Government By The Consent Of the Governed.”
