The FBI has been thoroughly corrupted since 2001. Here are the directors and acting directors of the FBI since September 4, 2001, who have all been termed as “dirty cops” by the conservative media (and for good reason):
1. Robert S. Mueller, III, September 4, 2001- September 4, 2013
2. James B. Comey, September 4, 2013 - May 9, 2017
3. Andrew McCabe (Acting), May 9, 2017 - August 2, 2017
4. Christopher Wray, August 2, 2017 – Present
As we now know, all these men were/are corrupt, and used the FBI for political partisanship and criminal activities, including all their bogus investigations against Trump and his associates (at a cost of multi-million dollars and hundreds of thousands of wasted man-hours, all paid for by tax-payers).
Yet Mr. Trump – who had the presidential authority to clean house, fire these men, have them investigated and prosecuted -- failed to do anything about it. Even if the Attorney General is ultimately and directly responsible for the appointment of the Director of FBI, Trump was responsible for the appointment of the proper Attorney General when he took office (and as we know Jeff Sessions was the last person who should have been given this responsibility, and Barr is still not tough enough).
Now Dick Morris (a former adviser to Bill Clinton as well as a political author, pollster and consultant) who writes for the Western Journal, is calling for the firing of Christopher Wray. But why merely a firing? Why not a prosecution?
Dick Morris: Fire Christopher Wray
The decision of the Department of Justice to drop all charges against former National Security Advisor Gen. Michael Flynn constitutes an admission of the most grievous and outrageous kind of misconduct by the chief investigative arm of the federal government: the FBI.
The DOJ acted to drop the charges only after the most blatant evidence emerged that FBI and DOJ operatives framed Flynn for political purposes. The director of the FBI, Christopher Wray, cannot and should not escape responsibility for the activities of the bureau.
He should resign immediately or President Trump should fire him.
The evidence of emails and breathless notes exchanged by those who interrogated the general in the interview that led to his indictment for lying to the FBI indicates a deliberate effort to entrap General Flynn, have him unwittingly confess to a violation of the Logan Act, and/or get him to lie to his interrogators.
Operatives set a perjury trap for Flynn without even informing him that he was being interviewed in connection with an investigation. As the incoming national security advisor, he naturally decided not to spill his guts and national secrets to two FBI operatives sent to interview him. Had he been warned that he was the target and been given an opportunity for legal representation, he likely would have avoided the trap.
Flynn’s underlying offense was to discuss the charges of Russian interference in U.S. election with the Russian ambassador, something the incoming national security advisor would be remiss not to do.
But the entrapment of General Flynn is damnable for two other reasons. First, he would have made a great national security advisor. In fact, he was likely to be too good, disrupting the cozy, incestuous national security establishment that so ill-served the country under President Obama...Wherever Flynn went, he was the bull in the china shop...
But he also stood directly in the path of the coup d’etat that was then unfolding under the watchful eye and with the micromanaging of former CIA Director John Brennan. This coup — based on concoctions enumerated in a phony dossier prepared at the behest of and paid for by the Hillary campaign — depended on regular leaks of disinformation to gullible reporters up and down the media food chain.
Were Flynn in charge, it was undoubted that these leaks would have been met with swift justice and administrative action, likely leading to the dismissal and perhaps the prosecution of the leakers...
Christopher Wray stood by as director of the FBI and let all this happen on his watch. As the truth became evident through investigation by Judicial Watch and other conservative organs and the intrepid work of defense attorney Sidney Powell, Wray looked the other way. He could have gotten at the truth himself, but chose not to do so. He should be fired.
