In the least shocking news of the day, the same FBI unit that raided Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home also pushed the Russian collusion hoax against the former President. And, there’s more: One the the FBI agents involved in the raid also dismissed Hunter Biden’s laptop as “Russian disinformation.” But yeah, there’s nothing politically-motivated about any of this, right?
Here’s something that would be big news if it didn’t involve the sheer corruption of the Justice Department and the weaponization of the FBI against Joe Biden’s political rival. The New York Post reports:
The FBI’s nine-hour, 30-agent raid of the former president’s Florida estate is part of a counterintelligence case run out of Washington — not Miami, as has been widely reported — according to FBI case documents and sources with knowledge of the matter. The bureau’s counterintelligence division led the 2016-2017 Russia “collusion” investigation of Trump, codenamed “Crossfire Hurricane.”
Although the former head of Crossfire Hurricane, Peter Strzok, was fired after the disclosure of his vitriolic anti-Trump tweets, several members of his team remain working in the counterintelligence unit, the sources say, even though they are under active investigation by both Durham and the bureau’s disciplinary arm, the Office of Professional Responsibility.
That’s already bad but it gets much worse:
In addition, a key member of the Crossfire team — Supervisory Intelligence Analyst Brian Auten — has continued to be involved in politically sensitive investigations, including the ongoing federal probe of potentially incriminating content found on the abandoned laptop of President Biden’s son Hunter Biden, according to recent correspondence between the Senate Judiciary Committee and FBI Director Christopher Wray.
FBI whistleblowers have alleged that Auten tried to falsely discredit derogatory evidence against Hunter Biden during the 2020 campaign by labeling it Russian “disinformation,” an assessment that caused investigative activity to cease.
And Auten has another claim to fame:
Auten has been allowed to work on sensitive cases even though he has been under internal investigation since 2019, when Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz referred him for disciplinary review for his role in vetting a Hillary Clinton campaign-funded dossier used by the FBI to obtain a series of wiretap warrants to spy on former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.
Horowitz singled out Auten for cutting a number of corners in the verification process and even allowing information he knew to be incorrect slip into warrant affidavits and mislead the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act court.
The same guy who lied to get a warrant to spy of Trump’s campaign and squashed the Hunter Biden investigation, just raided Mar-a-Lago on another fishing expedition/witch hunt. Unbelievable.
This is an FBI unit whose sole purpose is to frame Donald Trump. I wonder how many of these FBI agents were involved with the planning and execution of the January 6 “insurrection.” I don’t think it would shock anyone to learn they were behind that as well.
One of the things Trump should have done when he was President was clean house house and fire all these rotten mothers*ckers in the FBI and the Justice Department. He’d probably be President right now had he done it.
