Have any of the pro-Trump FBI cabal that fed investigative docs re Hillary Clinton to Rudy G been fired yet? Can’t name one.

No Federal employee is safe under this “president.”

The Democratic President elected in 2020 should make him FBI chief. And then let him loose on the entire Trump “Administration,” and anyone else (NRA, etc.) who isn’t already indicted under Mueller.

I don’t know how much more outrage and disgust I can feel. But I refuse to stop feeling it. Where was Wray in all of this?

I’ll be curious to see the grounds for firing. His distaste for Spanky (and most pols) can’t be enough. A civil servant has rights and protections and a thin skinned maniac in the Oval Office isn’t enough to justify this.

“This isn’t the normal process in any way more than name,” [Strzok’s lawyer] Goelman said.

Call it the New Normal.

Thanks, Trump.

He was an object of hysteria, and he defended himself with passionate dignity, and he made his persecutors look like the asses they are. And that last was unforgivable.

“In fact, in his decades of service, Special Agent Strzok has proved himself to be one of the country’s top counterintelligence officers, …”

Have a hunch that Mueller and SDNY investigations will unearth the weasels of which you speak but they’ll be dealt with much later in that hypothetical process.

I hope he has the financial wherewithal to pursue this.

Cue Rudy: “Agent Strzok’s firing obviously means the Mueller investigation must be wrapped up and brought to a close.”

As does this morning’s opening of the NYSE. And the Week 2 NFL slate of preseason games.

I don’t have the money to help him but if I could, I would.
