Can Deep State Be Trusted? Why Won’t the FBI Release Any Information on Las Vegas Shooting?

Guest post by Joe Hoft

Former FBI Directors James Comey and Robert Mueller have done much to discredit the name and reputation of the FBI.  Now the FBI won’t release information in regards to their investigation of 59 people killed in Las Vegas.  This further tarnishes this respected organization’s good name.

James Comey hurt the FBI’s name immensely by the actions he took surrounding Hillary Clinton in last year’s campaign.  Liberals believe Comey gave the election to President Trump because her name was tarnished from Comey’s actions but they totally disregard her criminal actions that led her to be in that place.  Conservatives felt like Comey gave Hillary a pass for her obvious criminal actions.

On June 27th Bill Clinton met with US Attorney General Loretta Lynch in her plane in Arizona for a half an hour. Within a week Lynch’s Department of Justice dropped the investigation into Hillary’s emails and FBI’s Comey made the announcement. Comey’s statements were later compared to Hillary’s prior statements –

After FBI Director Comey announced that the FBI would not recommend criminal charges be filed against Hillary, he was grilled in Congress by US Representative Trey Gowdy –

Comey then announced in late October, shortly before the election that the FBI was reopening its investigation into Hillary’s emails. Apparently emails recovered in the pervert Anthony Wiener case ended up being related to the Hillary investigation. Wiener was the husband of Clinton confidant Huma Abedin and reportedly Clinton emails were found on Huma’s computer after Huma stated under oath that all her emails were turned over.  A week or so later, again Comey let Hillary off again.  This was in spite of the fact that an email released from WikiLeaks showed that Hillary’s longtime assistant Cheryl Mills ordered Hillary’s email server to be bleached clean.  There was and is more than enough information in the public arena to have Hillary brought to court for her actions.

After President Trump was elected President he fired Comey as Head of the FBI.  After this Comey appeared at a Congressional Hearing and after berating President Trump stated under oath that he had leaked classified information to the press (a clear crime).

Former Director Mueller was even worse.  He was Comey’s mentor. 

There are many major scandals and likely crimes that Mueller did not meaningfully investigate when he was FBI Director resulting in no arrests and no consequences related to Obama and the Clintons:

Emailgate (2007): discovery that several top Bush administration officials violated the Presidential Records Act by using an RNC server for email communications while conducting official business, followed by the deletion of millions of the same emails

IRS Targeting (2010-2013): the IRS intentionally selected and then delayed or denied tax-exempt 501(c)(3) applications from conservative groups to prevent them from participating in the 2012 election, followed by IRS agent Lois Lerner invoking her Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination

Fast and Furious (2010): this ATF program, which seems to have served no rational purpose, allowed over 2,000 guns to be purchased illegally inside the United States and then “walked” into Mexico for use by criminals, one of which was later used in the 2010 murder of Border Agent Brian Terry by the member of a Mexican cartel

Associated Press Spying (2012): the Department of Justice illegally seized the communications of AP reporters made during April and May 2012, allowing the DOJ to unmask journalists’ confidential sources

Clinton Foundation Pay-for-Play (2009-2013): during the period in which Hillary Clinton held the office of Secretary of State, the Clinton Foundation and Bill Clinton received millions of dollars in paid speaking fees and a million dollar “gift”from countries involved in matters with the State Department, many of which had ties to terrorism and human rights abuses; some of these funds were apparently diverted from charitable causes to personal expenses, such as Chelsea Clinton’s 2010 wedding

Russian Uranium Deal (2009-2013): Hillary Clinton’s State Department approved a deal allowing a Russian company to control 20% of the uranium mining production capacity inside the United States, which was followed by millions of dollars in donations to the Clinton Foundation from people associated with the transaction

Clinton Private Email Server (2009-2013): during her entire tenure as Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton dodged Freedom of Information Act requirements by using a private email server to conduct official government business, as well as sent and received classified information that was Top Secret over an unsecured system—an “extremely reckless” (and obviously illegal) act.”

Mueller, by not upholding the law in these cases above, created a two-tiered system of law in the US – Laws for the political liberal elite and laws for everyone else. 

Mueller is a bad cop for other reasons.  Although he has many conflicts of interest he went ahead and accepted the position to investigate the fake Trump colluded with Russia story.  Even liberal publications like the USA Today reported in June that Mueller should step down as special prosecutor because of his conflicts of interest with the investigation he is carrying on.

Another reason and more justification for Mueller being a bad cop is related to the personnel he has hired to assist in the Russia investigation.  Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s fifteen attorneys are a Who’s Who of Liberal Activism.  He is not performing an investigation, he is on a liberal witch hunt.

This leads us to today.  Last night a press conference was held jointly by the FBI and the local Sheriff in Las Vegas concerning the recent killing of at least 59 people in that city a few days ago.  The Sheriff was very transparent in the information he supplied.  But the major question that everyone wants to know is – why did the killer do it?  What was his motive?

At this point, the FBI Investigator took the microphone.  Instead of providing any information relevant to the mass murder – suicide, he berated everyone there and the millions watching on TV.  The Special Agent In Charge for the Las Vegas Division of the FBI said:

Our resolve is firm.  We will get to the bottom of this no matter how long it takes…we must focus on facts.  We cannot give into conjecture.  We cannot respond to every little Twitter feed that may indicate a theory.  We need to be focused on the facts.  You need us to be right.  You expect us to be right and we want to be right….

After interviewing the killer’s girlfriend and God knows what else the FBI has uncovered, they provide nothing.

The FBI’s lack of transparency along with the corrupt and criminal acts by former FBI Directors lead all of America to begin forming conspiracy theories and to further lose trust in the FBI. 

It’s time that the FBI cleans shop and restores it name and reputation.
