Well that is because it does sound like a authoritarian regime. Lets get rid of those that do not agree with us? All you will be doing is causing resentment. Politics should not be part of the justice departments. We need good police whether it is local or federal police. Leave the FBI officers alone.
Democratic intelligence memo released
The House Intelligence Committee on Saturday released a Democratic memo in redacted form that seeks to undercut Republican claims of FBI surveillance abuses.
The committee made the Democratic memo public after the White House signed off following negotiations between the FBI and the committee's top Democrat, Rep. Adam Schiff of California, over what in the document should be redacted.
Earlier this month, the White House objected to releasing the memo, saying that sensitive material had to be removed first.
Schiff's memo was written to rebut a Republican memo that accuses the FBI of suppressing Democratic ties to an opposition research dossier on then-candidate Donald Trump and Russia. The dossier was used in the FISA warrant for former Trump campaign foreign policy adviser Carter Page.
The White House said in a statement that nothing in the Democratic memo counters Trump's statements that neither he nor his campaign colluded with Russia. Ref. CNN.
FBI Director Chris Wray says his other mission is tending the bureau's 'brand' after months of turmoil. "People talk about criticism and that inevitably raises questions about things like brand," FBI Director Chris Wray said in an exclusive interview with USA TODAY. "What I try to tell our folks is that while there are a lot of opinions out there about us, the opinions that really matter are the opinions of a jury when one of our agents takes the stand or a judge when he's being presented with a warrant or community leaders who are having to work side-by-side with our people." His work comes as his predecessor, James Comey, has published a new book exposing problems between the FBI and President Trump. Ref. USAToday.
