That committee has made a lot of oversights.Bob78164 wrote:As I mentioned earlier, I don’t care whether investigators have political views. That’s inevitable. I do care when investigators allow their political views to affect their decision making.
And it looks like that’s the case with the decision to fire Strzok. My understanding is that the FBI’s professional responsibility unit recommended a suspension but that the Deputy Director, a political appointee, overruled the recommendation. It sounds to me like a reprisal for anti-Donny views.
So there are three questions that need answering. First, what were the grounds for firing Strzok? Second, how has the FBI historically treated similar issues? Third, what process was used to make the decision?
Under the circumstances, a Congressional investigation is obviously appropriate. But the current head of the House Oversight Committee sees it as his job to protect the President, and that obviously makes him incapable of doing his job. The only way to fix that problem is to install a different Chair, one who understands the difference between oversight and cheerleading, and that will require a Democratic majority in the House. I’ll take one in the Senate as well. —Bob
Wow, the lengths you will go to justify your hypocrisy is astounding. Strzok didn't allow his STRONG bias to affect his decisions, even though there are emails that strongly suggest he did. Just the fact that he shared these prejudices with his mistress would be grounds for firing in the private sector. But the decision to fire him for that was a dastardly deed. And, so, we need yet another investigation.Bob78164 wrote:As I mentioned earlier, I don’t care whether investigators have political views. That’s inevitable.

If everyone who posted an ugly or off-color e-mail or text message in the private sector to a fellow employee was fired, most businesses would be severely understaffed.flockofseagulls104 wrote: Just the fact that he shared these prejudices with his mistress would be grounds for firing in the private sector.
You’re being incoherent here. Almost all private-sector employment is at-will, which means you don’t need a reason to fire someone and you’re perfectly free to fire an employee just because you don’t like his politics. But we really don’t want any cop being fired just because Comrade Donny and his handlers don’t like his politics or the possibility that Comrade Donny has handlers. And yet all three of the top people investigating that possibility have now been fired via the direct intervention of political appointees who owe Donny their jobs.flockofseagulls104 wrote:Wow, the lengths you will go to justify your hypocrisy is astounding.

That is the most laughable statement that has ever been posted on this bored. Possibly anywhere. Congratulations, bob-tel!!!I want a Congress that understands the difference between oversight and using your position to protect the Administration, right or wrong. The only way we’re going to get one is with a Democratic majority.

Do you really think that if there were anti-Hillary emails or texts when she was "being investigated" that CNN would not be talking about it 24-7? That's how I know.silverscreenselect wrote:And how do you know?BackInTex wrote:Not by those assigned to investigate her.silverscreenselect wrote:

Just like Guccifer 2.0 released embarrassing e-mails from Donny’s campaign at the same time he released embarrassing e-mails from the Democrats?flockofseagulls104 wrote:Do you really think that if there were anti-Hillary emails or texts when she was "being investigated" that CNN would not be talking about it 24-7?

Whereas Rudy Giuliani has admitted that "loyal" FBI agents leaked information to him about the progress of the Clinton investigation.Bob78164 wrote: You can’t name a single example of Strzok’s politics affecting his investigative decisions, and you can’t name a single example of ANYONE from Mueller’s investigation leaking anything at all.. —Bob
