What specific task did Comey have on a day to day basis with respect to the investigation? Will the investigation stop now that the person leading the investigation was fired? Can Comey no longer testify with respect to his knowledge and findings in the investigation? How many other political appointees are there in the FBI?
Do all current investigations stop now that Comey is gone? It is like a complete FBI reset? Are all investigations ceased immediately and they start with new ones?
Should have been fired a long time ago for the russian investigation, which is based on "evidence" from crowdstrike and the pissgate dossier. That alone is all anyone needs to know. On top of that, he committed a very serious indiscretion with regard to the notifications required to congress for the investigation. And it's obvious why. Because it's a political sham. ============ "Then on March 20th the mask fully came off. Comey was a solid Black Hat. The March 20th appearance before congress was the final straw in showcasing just how politically corrupt James Comey was. In this same March 20th hearing Comey stated there was an investigation into intelligence leaks to the media. However, on May 8th the source of the reports that were eventually leaked to the media, acting AG Sally Yates, said she was never questioned by the FBI. In the segment of the questioning below Rep. Stefanik begins by asking director Comey what are the typical protocols, broad standards and procedures for notifying the Director of National Intelligence, the White House and senior congressional leadership (aka the intelligence Gang of Eight), when the FBI has opened a counter-intelligence investigation. The parseltongue response from Comey is a generalized reply (with uncomfortable body language) that notification of counter-intel investigations are discussed with the White House, and other pertinent officials, on a calendar basis, ie. “quarterly”. With the statement that such counter-intel notifications happen “generally quarterly”, and against the backdrop that Comey stated in July of 2016 a counter-intel investigation began, Stefanik asks: …”when did you notify the White House, the DNI and congressional leadership”? BOOM! Watch an extremely uncomfortable Director James Comey outright LIE… by claiming there was no active DNI -which is entirely false- James Clapper was Obama’s DNI. . Watch it again. Watch that first 3:00 minutes again. Ending with: …”Because of the sensitivity of the matter” ~ James Comey Director Comey intentionally obfuscates knowledge of the question from Rep Stefanik; using parseltongue verbiage to get himself away from the sunlit timeline. The counter-intel investigation, by his own admission, began in July 2016. Congress was not notified until March 2017. That’s an eight month period – Obviously obfuscating the quarterly claim moments earlier. The uncomfortable aspect to this line of inquiry is Comey’s transparent knowledge of the politicized Office of the DNI James Clapper by President Obama. Clapper was used rather extensively by the Obama Administration as an intelligence shield, a firewall or useful idiot, on several occasions. Anyone who followed the Obama White House intel policy outcomes will have a lengthy frame of reference for DNI Clapper and CIA Director John Brennan as the two primary political operatives. Clapper lied to congress about collection of metadata. Brennan also admitted investigating, and spying on, the Senate Intelligence Committee as they held oversight responsibility for the CIA itself. The first and second questions from Stefanik were clear. Comey’s understanding of the questions was clear. However, Comey directly evaded truthful response to the second question. When you watch the video, you can see Comey quickly connecting the dots on where this inquiry was going. There is only one reasonable explanation for FBI Director James Comey to be launching a counter-intel investigation in July 2016, notifying the White House and Clapper, and keeping it under wraps from congress. Comey was a participant in the intelligence gathering for political purposes – wittingly, or unwittingly. As a direct consequence of this mid-thought-stream Comey obfuscation, it is now clear -at least to me- that Director Comey was using his office as a facilitating conduit for the political purposes of the Obama White House. [Read Full Backstory] The non-notification of congress allowed Director Comey to act without any oversight, this was part of his constructed design to hold power. Comey is admitting this in the testimony to congress, but no-one was paying attention. This unaccountable activity is a critical aspect to understanding how a black hat operative works. People can attempt to defend Comey for whatever reason they may carry. However, the factual reality is James Comey was carrying out a counterintelligence investigation completely off the range of congressional oversight. Intentionally so. FBI Director James Comey intentionally kept congress in the dark on his investigative activity. Our system of checks and balances are specifically set up to stop this from happening, and to keep a watch on the ‘watchers’. Director Comey subverted the oversight for his own political purposes. There is no defense for the FBI director acting alone and not notifying congress of what he is doing through the established protocols. It doesn’t matter who the FBI director is. Comey should have been fired on March 20th after he told congress he was intentionally not allowing them oversight over his conduct. His firing should have been an immediate no-brainer." https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2017/05/09/the-final-top-tier-intel-black-hat-leaker-removed/
