FBI gets an ‘F’ in trust due to recent scandals, but shows absolutely no remorse

It’s been a horrendous week for the FBI.

With its credibility already at rock bottom, each day brought a fresh scandal, and yet from the bureau’s unctuous public statements, there is no remorse.

Nothing to see here. Please move along. Which of course the complicit media is more than happy to do.

Here are the top scandals of the week:

1) The Durham report. Here is the official record, for the history books, that the FBI’s “Russia collusion” investigation was cooked up by Hillary Clinton to denigrate Donald Trump by tying him to Russia “as a means of distracting the public from her use of a private email server” — and that, despite knowing it was bogus, the FBI went ahead and launched the ill-fated Crossfire Hurricane investigation, while dropping four probes into the Clinton Foundation. 

In fact, there was more evidence that the Clinton campaign had colluded with Russia to produce the farcical “Steele dossier,” on which Crossfire Hurricane relied, than ever there was of Trump collusion.

House Committee Leaders Urge FBI To Halt Certifying Chinese Biometric Devices

The bipartisan leaders of a House committee are urging the FBI to halt the certification of biometric products manufactured by Chinese tech companies, citing risks to U.S. national security.

In a letter dated July 15 to FBI Director Kash Patel, Reps. John Moolenaar (R-Mich.) and Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-Ill.), chair and ranking member, respectively, of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party, said that biometric products from 32 Chinese companies are currently on the agency’s Certified Products List.

The FBI should “put an end to its ongoing certification of products from Chinese military-linked and surveillance companies … that could be used to spy on Americans, strengthen the repressive surveillance state of the People’s Republic of China (PRC), and otherwise threaten U.S. national security,” the lawmakers wrote.

Among the 32 companies, the lawmakers highlighted Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology, which was added to the Commerce Department’s Entity List in 2019 over its involvement in the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP’s) human rights violations in China’s far-western Xinjiang region. In 2021, Hikvision was designated as a company linked to China’s military-industrial complex in an executive order.

Currently on the FBI list is Hikvision’s HK300 PIV “single finger capture device,” which was certified on Jan. 15.

“Including these products on the Certified Products List grants these companies the FBI’s seal of approval, which they can leverage to market their products as FBI-approved to customers in the U.S. government, elsewhere in the United States, and around the globe,” the letter reads.

“This sends a dangerous signal to potential buyers that these companies’ products are trustworthy and heightens the risk that these products will be procured by U.S. government entities or contractors despite the security risks.

“It also sends conflicting messages about U.S. policy toward companies with ties to the PRC’s military-industrial complex.”

Emails Reveal FBI Invented Trump Case Out Of Nothing

Newly released emails further expose the behind-the-scenes push within the Biden DOJ’s push to manufacture a criminal case against President Donald Trump. 

The emails – obtained by the Senate Judiciary Committee and first reported by legal expert Margot Cleveland – show the FBI scrambling to go after Trump despite having no evidence. 

One email revealed former FBI Agent Tim Thibault plotting with colleagues how to zero in on the Willard Hotel.

Trump allies used the hotel as a command center to monitor the 2020 election results. 

According to the email, Thibault was actively hunting for a crime tied to the Willard Hotel.

He laid out two options: launch an assessment or open a preliminary investigation. 

He objected to the first option, noting it would limit the FBI’s authority. Under an assessment, interviews and “more probative” actions were barred. Subpoenas would be tightly restricted.

Thibault admitted the office was “hard at work attempting to predicate a Preliminary investigation.” This route, he said, would enable a broader and likely more aggressive investigation. 

In short, the FBI tried to launch a criminal probe without a shred of evidence. 

The email, dated March 2, 2022, came just six months before Special Counsel Jack Smith unsealed an indictment over Trump’s efforts to question the 2020 election. 

Federalist senior legal writer Margot Cleveland said the officials involved should be referred to the Inspector General for further investigation. 

One recipient on the email chain was Wayne Jacobs, a senior FBI agent whom Director Chris Wray later promoted to lead the Philadelphia field office. 

As Headline USA previously reported, Jacobs is married to former J6 committee investigator Soumya Dayananda. 

That connection has raised red flags, especially after Dayananda bragged that the charges against Trump closely mirrored her committee’s work.

FBI Director Kash Patel Launches “Grand Criminal Conspiracy” Probe Targeting Obama, Brennan, Clapper, and Comey

FBI Director Kash Patel has launched a “Grand Criminal Conspiracy” investigation into the decade-long weaponization of the federal government — a probe that specifically circumvents the statute of limitations, allowing investigators to finally pursue justice for long-buried crimes.

According to a report by JustTheNews, Barack Obama, John Brennan, James Clapper, James Comey, and other high-level Obama-era operatives have been named in the investigation, which shows a coordinated criminal conspiracy to target political enemies, shield Democrat allies, and manipulate multiple presidential elections — from 2016 through 2024.

But it gets better: The probe may now shift jurisdiction to Florida — thanks to none other than Special Counsel Jack Smith’s own raid on Mar-a-Lago.

The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Solomon teased that within the next 10 days, bombshell revelations would be made public — possibly exposing how weaponized federal agencies colluded to rig the political landscape against Trump and deceive the American people.

Solomon: “I think next week — over the next 10 days — the base who’s been wondering, “Where’s all that accountability?” is going to get some big surprises. Over the next week, we’ll learn where the conspiracy began — a few weeks before Crossfire Hurricane was opened — and when it ended, all the way in 2024, when they were still trying to pursue Donald Trump to keep him from winning the presidency.

There’s a big case that’s been built by the Justice Department and the FBI.

It’s been masked by a lot of this infighting and drama and soap opera. The matter is — MAGA-base Americans are going to be happy when they see where this is all heading in the next few weeks.

Kash Patel is going nowhere.”

During an interview with Sean Hannity, Solomon said that under the leadership of Director Kash Patel, the FBI has officially opened a grand criminal conspiracy case designed to circumvent the statute of limitations and expose years of unprecedented weaponization of government agencies against President Donald Trump.

The FBI Weren’t the Only Feds Embedded in the Crowd on Jan 6 and at Butler

There were more than FBI insurgents embedded in Jan 6 crowd.  Homeland Security’s federal employees were all over the place there and at Butler as well. 

Mike Benz outlined the feds involved in Jan 6 and Butler.  This evidence helps Americans see how much the government is working against good Americans.

Late last year Kash Patel shared evidence that the Feds were involved in Jan 6.

The following was reported in the book – The Steal – Volume III: The Cover-Up.  Jeffrey McKellop was at Jan 6 and was punished for saving a woman’s life.  He later uncovered the special ops used against Americans on that day and was punished for doing so.

Here is what he shared that was reported in The Steal – Volume III: The Cover-Up:

Two years after his imprisonment, word came out about a Jan 6 hostage by the name of Jeffrey McKellop, a decorated former 3rd Special Forces Group soldier and US government contractor. Jeffrey was being held in the DC Gulag in Washington DC as a political prisoner after he served his country for 22 years of military service (the DC Gulag was the name given to the Washington DC jail where the Jan 6 hostages were being held).

Jeffrey has been silenced by his government. After his arrest in March 2021, Jeffrey delved into video footage and documented evidence from January 6. Jeffrey was able to identify numerous government informants and agitators in the massive Trump crowd that day. After he put together his evidence, he sent it out to numerous contacts. That was when the FBI came into his prison cell and took his research. They then attempted to silence him and banned him from phone and mail privileges . . .

. . . [McKellop says] I know for a fact that there were undercover agents, man. I saw them. I spotted it. And when you find one, then you know what to look for, and then you find them. All undercover agents, they all wear the same thing. They all move the same way. They all get together the same way. Why do I know these? Because I used to do the same thing . . .

I’ve been saying this for a year and a half now, that Antifa were there, Antifa and BLM were there, but they changed their chameleons, man. They look like us, they dress like us, they act like us, and then they committed violence in our name. That is guerrilla warfare.

McKellop identified individuals in the videos he saw, and he is convinced these people were working for the government. He’s been in jail for more than two years without a trial for the crime of knowing too much.

McKellop shared his thoughts on Jan 6 and more in an interview out yesterday.  This is raw and real.

FBI opens ‘grand conspiracy’ probe on weaponization, opening door to special prosecutor

The FBI has quietly launched an investigation into a decade of Democratic party and deep-state antics from Russia collusion to Jack Smith, opening the door for the appointment of a special prosecutor to examine whether the well-documented episodes amount to a criminal conspiracy to meddle in three U.S. elections to the benefit of Democrats and the detriment of President Donald Trump, Just the News has learned.

The “grand conspiracy” case was opened several weeks ago after new FBI Director Kash Patel took over, and it could get a significant boost if Trump were to declassify two secret tranches of evidence that identify a potential ignition point to the alleged conspiracy in the summer of 2016, according to several people directly familiar with the inquiry, who spoke to Just the News on a condition of anonymity.

The first piece of evidence is a classified annex to a years-old inspector general probe of Hillary Clinton’s improper email server sought by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley. That annex is believed to show that credible information about possible wrongdoing was intentionally ignored by the FBI.

The second tranche of evidence was identified by former Russiagate Special Counsel John Durham in his final report. The evidence was dubbed in the report as the “Clinton plan intelligence,” and it was also placed in a classified annex kept from the American public and even many members of Congress.

Excerpts from the publicly-available and unclassified Durham report show that U.S. spy agencies were aware that Clinton’s 2016 campaign was concocting a bogus Russia collusion narrative to harm Trump’s election chances before the FBI opened its now-discredited Crossfire Hurricane probe, in part using evidence created by the Clinton campaign or offered by Clinton associates.

Both pieces of evidence have remained sealed from public view for nearly a decade and are highly classified because they reveal sensitive intelligence-gathering methods, officials said.

The FBI declined comment.

FBI Declines to Comment on James O’Keefe FBI Leak Where Agent Claims Law Enforcement “Turned a Blind Eye or Missed Things” in Jeffrey Epstein Case

The FBI declined to comment on a new exposé from O’Keefe Media Group and James O’Keefe, featuring a current FBI agent spilling the beans on the FBI’s cover-up of the Epstein case.  

As The Gateway Pundit reported, O’Keefe has published audio tapes of a current FBI agent revealing that the FBI “turned a blind eye” on some of the evidence in the Epstein case on Saturday.

It was previously reported that FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino erupted on Pam Bondi and took a day off as he considers resigning over mishandling of the Epstein case and lack of transparency with the American people. It was further rumored that FBI Director Kash Patel may leave the FBI over the scandal, but he called the rumors “conspiracy theories” on Saturday.

This comes after the FBI, DOJ released a 2-page memo on Sunday concluding Jeffrey Epstein did not have a “client list” and that he committed suicide. The memo also suggested that no further Epstein documents would be released to the public.

FBI Deputy Senior Intelligence Officer Rami Hasan, who said he works on “countering White supremacy things,” revealed that “law enforcement kind of either turned a blind eye or, like, missed things” in the Epstein case.

He further attacked the DOJ for their “weird” nothingburger Epstein file release to a select group of MAGA influencers in February.

He said of the FBI, “it’s a sh*t show.”

“FBI LEAKS” – James O’Keefe Reveals Deputy Senior National Intelligence Officer Confessed Law Enforcement “Turned a Blind Eye or Missed Things” in Jeffrey Epstein Case – “It’s a Sh*t Show”

O’Keefe Media Group founder and undercover journalist James O’Keefe debuted a new series, called “FBI Leaks,” featuring a current FBI agent spilling the beans on the FBI’s cover-up of the Epstein case.  

As The Gateway Pundit reported, FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino took a day off from work after a clash with Attorney General Pam Bondi over the handling of the Epstein files, and he is rumored to be considering resigning from the Bureau.

The blowup between Bondi and Bongino happened after the FBI, DOJ released a 2-page memo on Sunday concluding Jeffrey Epstein did not have a “client list” and that he committed suicide.

The memo also suggested that no further Epstein documents would be released to the public.

It was also reported that Kash Patel is considering resigning if Bongino leaves.

The White House responded to reports on Friday, however, claiming that “the continued fixation on sowing division in President Trump’s Cabinet is baseless and unfounded in reality.”

One Year Later, Where is The Final FBI Investigation on The Trump Assassination Attempt?

Given the recent shift in reality by the nation’s top law enforcement agencies regarding whether there is or isn’t a “client list” of the late pedophile, Jeffrey Epstein, it seems completely possible that law enforcement may report that the assassination attempt on President Trump never happened.

In the event there actually was an assassination attempt in Butler PA, resembling what American’s thought they saw, one can only wonder, on the one-year anniversary of the event, when the federal investigation will be released…if ever? The problem with the administration’s law enforcement is transparency. It’s been a year since the shooting and nothing, nada, zip, a big hole in a donut.

Given the lack of investigative information, it appears that there are an awful lot of people hell-bent on not releasing all the information about what occurred on July 13th in Butler, PA. Why? There sure is a lot of information that needs to be made public.

First, what we have gleaned from all the pathetic investigations provided by the U.S. Senate, the House Task Force, the Secret Service review and a Department of Homeland Security independent review is that the Secret Service dropped the ball. Yep. These geniuses spent time and big money to concluded what every American already knew. Congratulations.

Now, what we don’t know is anything about the alleged shooter and his family. Why? The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) apparently took the lead role in the investigation, yet the last “update” provided by the FBI was last August.

The American people are told that the FBI conducted extensive investigations, gaining access to the alleged shooter’s devices, searched his residence and reviewed digital media and video footage. That’s wonderful. Good job. Where’s the final report?

How bout the FBI release its final report of its investigation, including the complete ballistics report, all DNA and fingerprint information, all information relating to the alleged shooter’s phone (including tracking his pings the day of the shooting) and, of course, the mysterious autopsy report of the alleged shooter that Congressional Task Force Chair, Congressman Kelly, says the American people can’t handle.

Note to Congressman Kelly. The American people can handle it. In fact, the American people want the facts that so far are being withheld. In a nutshell, the American people want the truth.

The FBI final report should include all the above data which should cement that Thomas Matthew Crooks was, in fact, the shooter. So far, what has been released by the Congressional Task Force does not positively identify Crooks as the shooter as none of the collected and tested projectiles have been positively identified as coming from the alleged shooter’s alleged weapon. This is no small deal.

No information as to whether Crooks’s fingerprints and DNA were on the alleged weapon has been made public. There is no video showing Crooks as the person on the roof of the AGR building. Law enforcement says Crooks is the shooter, but there is no physical evidence supporting this statement.

Without Crooks’s autopsy, it’s impossible to know if the body that was cremated was actually Thomas Matthew Crooks. Furthermore, why didn’t the FBI release the phone records of Crooks and his father. Afterall, the public has been told that the father tried contacting his son all day. Well, let’s see the evidence of those calls. That’s physical evidence that’s as easy as it gets.

And how could his parents (both reportedly mental health experts) know that their son was acting strangely in his room but didn’t notice the bombs being made in the same room? Sound just a little strange to anyone?

And let’s not forget that the Pennsylvania State Police conducted its own investigation which just happens to be classified. Why? For God’s sake! Just provide the report and let the American people decide what happened. Is Corey Comperatore’s widow allowed to see the Pennsylvania State Police report or is she being forced to sue for it? Why?

Finally, any report that is released by the FBI must explain what happened to the White Van that police surrounded that evening on the outskirts of the rally grounds where explosives were found and the van was removed by police. Was there more than one alleged assassin? Who owned the van? What happened to the owner of the van? Why didn’t the owner return to the van? Where did the owner of the van get the explosives? Whose fingerprints were removed from the van?

There are a zillion other questions that need to be answered about what actually happened last July 13th in Butler PA. Just release the report and the American people can figure out whether it’s a competent investigation of just more stonewalling. But it’s time. It’s time for the Trump Administration to release the FBI investigation about the assassination attempt on then candidate Trump. The American people are smart and will know if it’s a twist in reality. After the Epstein debacle, the American people have their antenna up.
