Strzok, Page, McCabe, how are they still employed at the FBI?

Please, someone explain it to me. They should be suspended without pay at the very least if not fired outright.

Malfeasance in office for starters is grounds enough. Based on the fact that they were sending upwards of 60 texts a day - apiece, each one - failure to work after being paid would probably work just fine as grounds for suspending them.

I don't get how their security clearances have evidently not been revoked either. Mystifying. To me. Regards 18DAI

Here in WI we had a several year ‘John Doe’ investigation as the lefty controlled State ‘Gov election board’ went after Walker supporters who may of used Gov computers and time to support the Gov’s re-election campaign.

Few stones were left unturned looking for internet posts,emails & phone calls with anything remotely to do with the re-election.

How does this FBI collusion compare? It’s a factor of 1000’s more extreme.

In a nutshell. A couple of circumstances.

1) Unless the person is fired due to strictly administrative efforts (laziness, subordination, etc.), cases handled by that person could be in jeopardy.

2) Being fired has the consequence of losing his accrued pension rights.

One is called the good-ol'-boys network.

The other is called we'd-better-cover-our-asses.

Extra points in correctly identifying which is which.

Hint: It is extremely difficult to fire a person in that position. Proportionally direct to the position level.

Don’t forget they are federal employees. Nearly impossible to fire once they are on the teet.

It is all a very well, deeply thought-out process. Small wonder one of them was reassigned to Siberia.

That's why some maladjusted aluminum foil hat wearers propose, like ancient astronaut theorists, that no indictment is forthcoming based on Russian collusive efforts during the 2016 election.

Makes sense now, doesn't it?

However, I do firmly believe that someone might get charged for tearing out a mattress tag that didn't belong to him/her.

Are they easier to monitor if still employed? Presuming that some kind of case is being sought against them?

Are they not all due to be questioned by both House and Senate committees? Is it harder for them to plead the 5th if being questioned about "official duties"?

I'd like to think that they no longer have much to do while employed, and that there will eventually be a grand perp walk down Pennsylvania Avenue that leads to convictions and loss of federal pensions.

Where are they now? In the file room, workin' on that hot monkey love. She's wearing a Hillary Clinton mask and he's wearing a George Soros mask.

Strzok and McCabe have both been on "rocket rides" of sorts throughout their careers. That they've floated to the top is a ripple effect of some ill-thought-out promotion/rotation policies some 15-20 years ago.

And you're right. There are numerous "institutional impediments" to actually canning somebody at their level.

I have to do a NYT correction. When I posted "(laziness, subordination, etc.)" it's supposed to read "(laziness, insubordination, etc.)". As the NYT would say, "I got excited by the whole thing".

A lengthy article about Obama’s ties and motives by Andrew McCarthy, worth a read.

WORTH READING IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT!

Fwiw.

It's a certainty that the President has been advised of the following for the upcoming interview. A refresher won't hurt.

Will someone explain how Page and Strzok, at a minimum, are not being charged under the Hatch Act?

The Hatch Act prohibits federal employees from:

Using official authority or influence to interfere with an election
Engaging in political activity while on duty

The FBI is eve more constrained in their ability to perform or participate in political activity.

It is abundantly clear that both Page and Strzok were using their Gphones to discuss aiding and abetting the Clinton campaign by taking active steps to prevent her from suffering any legal sanction over the misuse of her outhouse server to send and receive classified information.

It is unfortunate that those two traitors will continue their employment with the US gov. They will collect their GS whatever salary wether they are plotting a coup against a duly elected official or counting office supplies in Alaska.

Btw. Somebody give Mr. McGahn, White House Counsel, a pay raise. He understood very clearly from the get-go the legal implications of his advice. The political implications were just icing on the cake. Which, as we all know, is best eaten with two (2) scoops of ice cream.

Back to basics. The world is divided into two (2) types of people. Vulcans and non-Vulcans.

Vulcans are all logic. They don't consume alcoholic beverages and, by doing so, miss on all the fun. To them, emotions are to be readily discarded and they have a funny, awkward way of splitting-fingers.

Non-Vulcans are the opposite. Why miss on a good joke when they can have the last laugh? Which in many ways can be so much more rewarding than having the first laugh. And usually they cherish a precious commodity. Time. They don't waste it nor take it for granted, they just bide on it. Time equates with both experience and knowledge. Rare commodities by themselves these days. And some of their best friends are Vulcan. Do they get along well! Could be a case of opposites attracting each other. I think that it is a measure of prudent calculation.

Not even God is playing dice with this universe. Now...on the multiverse...it's a different story.

Who is that moron?

Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

If you can, JALLEN, trust me. That TV program is an acquired taste. First nine (9) seasons were great. Right there with "Frasier".

Who is Frasier?

To avoid the leap frogging on this, bear in mind that I have not watched network TV in several decades.

I've never seen it, but I'm glad you didn't say, "Around season 4 it gets really good!"
