Jim Jordan Goes Scorched Earth On FBI Director Over Trump-Hater Peter Strzok (VIDEO)
2017-12-08
[Gateway Pundit] Congressman Jim Jordan (R-OH) grilled FBI director Christopher Wray Thursday morning. The conservative firebrand demanded Wray confirm whether or not Trump-hating FBI agent Peter Strzok applied for the FISA warrant to spy on Trump officials.

Jordan kicked off his line of questioning with the following, "Director, did Peter Strozk help produce and present the application to the FISA court to secure a warrant to spy on Americans associated with the Trump campaign?"

Wray didn’t want to go there.

#10  Jordan's request was modest. He was only asking for a copy of the FBI FISA warrant application which would have on it the justification for the warrant to unmask. Congress, as charged with oversight has a right to such documents.

#9  Mrs. JohnQC says to me, let me know when someone goes to jail. She tends to a bit of a skeptic. Trump might need a new team in DOJ to push the ball over the line.

#8  Face it, they are now STAZI.

Certainly looks that way.

#7  Face it, they are now STAZI. What to do with them, is the question.

#6  The deep state still killed some of the Kennedy document info after all these years. Like WHY?

#5  I expect that FISA request on my desk by tomorrow morning.

De-classify it.

Don't make me hack for it.

#4  Interesting how the Director said that they (the FBI) will fully investigate their (the FBI's) own wrongdoing and they won't release anything until that is done. (I suspect maybe in the year 2040).
The fact that the FISA court can be used by the FBI to do just about anything they want - without any oversight or accountability seems pretty scary to me.

#3  One nagging problem with Jordan and Trey for that matter, is all indinate talk. Just talk.

I agree! The politically appointed "leadership" of these agencies appears to be notional at best, our current Attorney General being a prime example. These people, these beltway denizens, report to an entirely different chain of command. We used to refer to it as 'B Company.'

B Company - Be there when you get there, Be there when you leave.

In the popular vernacular, the "Deep State."

#2  Besoeke agreed with a loud applause. One nagging problem with Jordan and Trey for that matter, is all indinate talk. Just talk.

When is the last time there were any demands for firing or better yet prison for the swampers?

All bark and zero bite. Making them almost as bad. That being said it was fascinating dare I say refreshing to see such a clear dot line laid out. If he would have topped it off with, "Wray what are you going to do to prosecute these criminals?" A public dance that has yet to come. And I fear we will never see. A question that should have been asked at his confirmation hearing...

In the meantime I fear the FBI 7th floor is laughing there arses off. Which begs another question. Has anyone interviewed the FBI agents that quit over the massive Clinton Foundation bribery scam?

#1  Knowing he'd get nothing from Wray, Congressman Jordan uses his allotted time wisely to 'connect the dots' and provide a very excellent synopsis of at least a portion of FBI Agent Peter Strozk's chain of involvement.

I would not be at all surprised to soon learn that a tragic motorway accident in the north of Scotland has claimed the life of former M16 officer Christopher Steele. After the Nidal Hasan cock-up, the other end of that operation (US Citizen terrorist Anwar al-Awlaki) did not last long either. Operational termination does bring closure. The conduit for funneling US taxpayer dollars to Russian intelligence operatives simply cannot be fully revealed.

FBI director Christopher Wray needs to find new employment, and in my opinion, very soon. Later this morning would be excellent.
