Evidence Suggests Former FBI Head of Counter Intelligence, Bill Priestap, is Obamagate’s ‘Deep Throat’!

Guest post by Joe Hoft

More and more evidence is beginning to suggest the Former FBI Head of Counter Intelligence, Bill Priestap, is Obamagate’s ‘deep throat’ – the insider providing information to government investigators about the Obama crime syndicate!

As reported earlier by TGP, Rep. Chris Stewart joined Judge Jeanine Pirro on Saturday night to discuss the latest developments from the Congressional deep state investigation. Stewart sits on the House Intelligence Committee and told Judge Jeanine he did not want to make any headlines. Bill Priestap came up in the discussion.

Via Judge Jeanine:

Judge Jeanine: Who is Christopher Wray defending other than his own FBI guys? Most of whom are leaving or who’ve been asked to leave? I mean that’s what’s so crazy about this. Christopher Wray needs to be asked, what name did you want to be not revealed here? Peter Strzok? McCabe? You know the people that are clearly in trouble. And, by the way, have you heard the name Bill Priestap in the FBI who’s the head of counter intelligence and Strzok’s boss?

Rep. Chris Stewart: Yeah, we’ve heard that name and you’re going to hear more of that name. I want to go back though to something you said…

Judge Jeanine: No, I want to go back to Priestap but you go back first… But I want to go back to Priestap. And I want my audience to remember this name. I’ll tell you why I’m asking. I don’t like that I haven’t heard of him. We’ve heard of the whole hierarchy, everybody on that seventh floor. And there’s one guy we don’t hear about and that’s Priestap. Comey threw him under the bus and said that this guy who was Strzok’s boss told Comey not to advise Congress of certain things. And the fact that we haven’t heard from Priestap tells me he’s cooperating with someone or what?

Chris Stewart: Well, look I’m going to be careful on this because I’m not sure what we can say on this and believe me I don’t want to be the headline… Comey surrounded himself with liberal progressive hacks. And they don’t reflect the entity of the Department of Justice or the FBI.

Rep. Stewart to Judge Jeanine: You’re going to be hearing a lot more on Bill Priestap.

Bill Priestap is the only major player from the FBI seventh floor who is not making any headlines.
Why?

Everyone around Priestap has either been caught inside the investigative net or they resigned.   But so far we have heard nothing about Bill Priestap.  Conservative Treehouse has more on Priestap:

Everyone around Bill Priestap, above and below, were caught inside the investigative net.

Above him: James Comey, Andrew McCabe and James Baker. Below him: Peter Strzok, Lisa Page, Jim Rybicki, Trisha Beth Anderson and Mike Kortan. Parallel to Priestap in main justice his peer John P Carlin resigned, Sally Yates fired, Mary McCord quit, Bruce Ohr was busted twice, and most recently Dave Laufman resigned. All of them caught in the investigative net…. Only Bill Priestap remained, quietly invisible – still in position.

A report at Yournewswire.com shares the following –

The investigation into candidate Donald Trump was a counterintelligence operation. That operation began in July 2016. Bill Priestap would have been in charge of that, along with all other, FBI counterintelligence operations.

FBI Deputy Peter Strzok was specifically in charge of the Trump counterintel op. However, Strzok would be reporting to Bill Priestap on every detail and couldn’t (according to structure anyway) make a move without Priestap approval.

On March 20th 2017 congressional testimony, James Comey was asked why the FBI Director did not inform congressional oversight about the counterintelligence operation that began in July 2016.

FBI Director Comey said he did not tell congressional oversight he was investigating presidential candidate Donald Trump because the Director of Counterintelligence suggested he not do so. *Very important detail.*

I cannot emphasize this enough. *VERY* important detail. Again, notice how Comey doesn’t use Priestap’s actual name, but refers to his position and title. Again, watch [Prompted]

Dirty cop Comey threw Priestap under the bus in the above Congressional inquiry.  Maybe this led Priestap to share information also noted in the FISA memo released by the House when discussing the bogus dossier used to obtain the FISA warrant to spy on President Trump?

This is getting good.  The deep state criminal network is slowly being exposed.  Maybe there is a mole or ‘deep throat’ as was insinuated in the Watergate scandal.  Is Priestap deep throat in the Obamagate scandal?  Lock Them All Up!
