Here we go again with the ever-familiar silo defense. The FBI is refusing to hand over the unclassified FD-1023 stating there is an ongoing investigation using the confidential human source who made allegations outlined in the document. Remember, the allegations and the statement record was created in July of 2020, almost three years ago.
Prior to last week, the FBI refused to say the 6-page unclassified document existed. After House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer told FBI Director Chris Wray he had already seen the unclassified document via a whistleblower, then Comey admitted the FBI indeed had it. Today, the FBI is refusing to release the document, stating it is now captive as part of an “ongoing investigation.” The claimed investigation began July 2020 – the investigation is “ongoing”. Go figure.
James Comer said he will begin the process, this Thursday, to hold FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt of Congress. WATCH:
.
Even when Trump is back in the WH this BS lawfare under investigation nonsense will continue. Good Call Sundance.
Not if he fires everyone and demands a special council investigation into lawfare
Meanwhile…………
Trump’s lawyers John Rowley and James Trusty arrived to the Justice Department at 10 am ET on Monday and met with officials for two hours, according to reports.
President Trump later Monday suggested federal charges are imminent after his lawyers met with DOJ officials.
“HOW CAN DOJ POSSIBLY CHARGE ME, WHO DID NOTHING WRONG, WHEN NO OTHER PRESIDENT’S WERE CHARGED, WHEN JOE BIDEN WON’T BE CHARGED FOR ANYTHING, INCLUDING THE FACT THAT HE HAS 1,850 BOXES, MUCH OF IT CLASSIFIED, AND SOME DATING BACK TO HIS SENATE DAY WHEN EVEN DEMOCRAT SENATORS ARE SHOCKED. ALSO, PRESIDENT CLINTON HAD DOCUMENTS, AND WON IN COURT. CROOKED HILLARY DELETED 33,000 EMAILS, MANY CLASSIFIED, AND WASN’T EVEN CLOSE TO BEING CHARGED! ONLY TRUMP – THE GREATEST WITCH HUNT OF ALL TIME!” Trump said in a Truth Social post Monday morning.
Because they are thoroughly evil, corrupt, and fear you, Mr. President.
He is correct, as usual. Praying for PDJT — I am sick of the double standards of justice. This is all just so very wrong!
At times like these it may be helpful to remember:
“Vengeance is mine, saith the Lord. I will repay!”
without a doubt.
Yes, ULTIMATE VENGEANCE, but we have human justice systems to protect the law-abiding… And woe to us if we don’t use them against the wicked!
Which is why Ron DeSantis is running for president–he was assured by RINO advisers that PDJT would be neutralized by state and federal lawfare. And its why all the other RINO presidential pseudo-aspirants are running; to deny PDJT the WH.
I have a working theory that goes like this: RDS will be allowed to win the presidency so long as he sticks to the cultural stuff, i.e. woke insanity like trans-groomers, racialist racists, and cultural Marxist indoctrination on college campuses and throughout the US government–especially the military. So long as RDS does not grow ambitions of picking up the mantle of America-First economic nationalist policies, he will be tolerated for a term–maybe two.
In return, the American people are lulled back to sleep believing the 2020 and 2022 elections were just aberrations and will just go away now that a decent “Republican” is in office. It will cool the roiling pot of mistrust and anger at how PDJT was treated, and allow a kind of pressure release of tension and frustration at abuse of and chicanery by our fascist government.
Now, the flip side of that theory is that the Ruling Class / Deep State / leftist oligarchy could not care less about an angry American public and is perfectly happy to double down on an even more provocative election theft starring none other than the virulently racist and former “First Lady”, Big Mike as the 2024 White House prize winner!
I’m still voting for Trump.
So am I.
Add me to that list.
Me too! Trump 2024
Theoretically, if multi millions of MAGA stay home or write in “Donald Trump” then DeSantis probably can’t win the presidency. Will the Deep State steal one for Desantis in your “release of tension” scenario ?
Admittedly, it is a working theory, but yes, that is the assumption.
Someone said there are no write-ins counted in an POTUS election. I don’t know if that’s true.
Even so, those votes aren’t going to Ron! seal clap. I’m intent on taking out a lot of rinos even if the short-term is painful. NO MORE RINOS!
I’ve often said DeSantis is the bone they will throw to calm down the rabble. But – what about energy and the attack on global food supply? Flip side, as audacious as they’ve become, Big Mike would be just too much. They’d try to shine up Newsome somehow, or maybe even roll out the Hildabeast – she still hasn’t had her turn!
I think your theory is accurate. And it really sickens me.
I think the flip side. They are going to shove this sh*t in our faces and laugh at how easy it was to take over this country. I doubt Michelle wants it but she won’t have to do much but go to events and look pretty.
On second thought…
It seems like there’s no need for Desaster to win. Republicans and the deep state don’t care about who’s in office, as long as their gravy train keeps rolling. Stopping Trump is all that matters. They could put fetterman, Feinstein, or Frankenstein on the ballot. They just have to stop DJT from being on the ballot.
Excellent post, I believe the latter.
I would probably vote RFK before RdS.
I read it 3 times. It makes as much sense anything else.
Yesterday there was some guy theorizing about Hussein O. running for VP.
Not eligible. The VP candidate needs to be as eligible as the presidential candidate. He can’t run again.
Nothing will ever get done until we take them down. All of this is OUR fault.
Exactly! We must clean house while there is still a house to clean.
I have no power to impact these happenings…but, God does. We should all be praying for President Trump and our Country. His will on earth, as it is in Heaven.
We all need to remember this!^^^
What is the statute that permits a federal agency to refuse a congressional oversight document request because the document is part of an “ongoing investigation”? If there is one, what are the safeguards against using that excuse to evade an otherwise lawful request? And if it truly is sensitive, then why is there no in-camera review offered/available?
I’ve heard that reason over and over again, and I do see why a criminal target should be kept in the dark of investigations so as not to compromise current evidence collection/give the target reason to destroy docs, but that is not applicable here and there is never a statute cited for this.
Not that I buy the FBI’s excuse, just wondering.
My assumption is these agency authorities to go tell Congress to pound sand will be hidden within the Patriot Act which created the open back door for the agencies to collaborate ‘for the safety of the republic’ and is where their hiding behind ‘sources and methods’ has been used to stall Congressional oversight.
Donald Trump, why the hell didn’t you get some classified info when you were in the Oval that you could NOW USE . Surely you knew they weren’t going to leave you alone.
Trump doesn’t break laws.
We can not be constrained by The old laws but work within the rules they created. This new marx govt. has no old rules or laws. They have created new ones. Now lets get busy then recreate a Constitutional Republic under the Constitution and the Bill of Rights and the Declaration.
We all break laws.
The contempt of Congress BS will work the same as it worked with Holder: zero consequences!
They are playing a game. No point in a Contempt Charge. They need to proceed directly to am Impeachment Bill against Wray. Then the others, one by one.

Impeachment of federal officials
Executive-Branch-Logo.png
Impeachment is the constitutional process by which the United States Congress has the authority to remove civil officers of the United States from office. The process to impeach and remove an individual from office involves two stages: first, articles of impeachment are passed by a majority vote of the United States House of Representatives, then a trial is conducted in the United States Senate in which the Senate sits as a jury. In most impeachment trials, the Vice President presides over the trial, however, in impeachment trials of the president, the chief justice of the United States presides. In order to remove the person from office, two-thirds of senators that are present to vote must vote to convict on the articles of impeachment.
The House can Vote on it and the Senate Trial is Mandatory & Swift. DOJ can’t stop it.
The Repubs are pieces of ****. If they remove Trump from the race, I vote we all write Trump and remove the power from all existing RINOs by not voting for them at all. It will be bad, the scum will rise to the surface, but we use the second when they become animal enough to infringe on our rights. The Wild West!
You forget who controls the Senate and all the RINOs who abound in the House and Senate. Were it not for that, your plan is sound. However, there is that, so your plan cannot work. Sad to say.
Yes it still works because of the process. The process draws attention and informs the public of all of the evidence. That will be a success.
The Senate has no choice — they will be forced to hold a Trial in Public with the Evidence and Whistleblowers. Each Senator will be on the record and it will be in public,
It doesn’t have to “work” to actually work. Nobody expects that Senate will vote to convict Wray. Have the trial, subpoena the evidence, put on the witnesses, expose the FBI incompetence and corruption, expose the Biden corruption and drag Wray through the mud. No Fortune 500 Company is going to pay him $15 million a year for a director’s seat on their BOD after that! That’s how you punish Wray, Garland and Mayorkas!
Impeachment for impeachment’s sake, the value of humiliation. People will see!
Exactly John..
Pelosi had Bannon arrested, in handcuffs. Do it to Wray!!!
The ongoing investigation is the one the FBI opened to find the whistle blower.
Didn’t Steve Bannon have to undergo a trial for contempt of Congress?
He is appealing something about it, is he not?
Didn’t Peter Navarro have a trial date set for contempt of Congress?
Can you imagine the money they have been out on high powered lawyers?
THEN WHY SHOULD WRAY NOT UNDERGO THE SAME EXACT TREATMENT?!?
Because his CIA handlers/buddies will have some ‘conversations’ with those pushing and conducting the contempt hearing and it will die.
The process? I see, and how long will the process take? Republicans are disgusting. Oh and why is the special prosecutor Jack whatever still funded? Oh the process of defunding and we need a super maj0rity … I will never vote again if Trump is indicted and he is not on every ballot one every state ……but but…the process. I am so disgusted.
McCarthy needs roasted on a spit in hell, for not dismissing these fraudulent charges, not freeing the J6 political concentration camp prisoners, and not keeping any of his “promises”. Throw MTG in the cell with him.
There is no doubt in any fair minded persons mind that Joe Biden is corrupt and sold influence. The problem is there are many, many more in our government who also sold and continue to sell influence. Notice that as this story is coming out news of Trump being indicted by a grand jury is breaking.
“Contempt of Congress” = “Strongly Worded Letter”
They should impeach Wray and Zero the FBI budget.
Alternatively, they should pass legislation that any FedGov SES employee that is held in Contempt of Congress has failed in their duties and forfeits their SES pension. This would put some muscle behind the Strongly Worded Letters Congress generates to pretend like they are doing something.
And be subjected to jail time.
Damn let’s rid ourselves of these lying vermin.
My oldest son sent a text this AM saying what Comer was going to do. I replied “Eric Holder”
McCarthy sold us out, he should have held these scumbags accountable. They will slow walk this, and let our real POTUS get screwed.
Notice how quiet Jim Jordan is? All controlled opposition, and they are comfortable with that.
He’s shown now to be feckless worthless and weak
Primary him … And per William Wallace, “Let them see you do it”. Then watch what he does.
He has to be quiet. They know his secrets, and they know he lied.
This is the interview where his own body language was the opposite of what it should have been. There is so much deceit in his body and eye movements accompanied with verbal deflection, that it made me really sad when I saw it. I actually liked him.
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/jim-jordan-fights-claims-he-ignored-sexual-abuse-calling-allegations-completely-false
The GOPe and UniParty want Biden re-elected. Nothing will happen to the Biden crime family.
Sure is a shame they won’t bring the Budget chairman out to announce that the FBI’s 2024 budget is now at $0.00.
We haven’t had a budget since 2007.
Supposedly, the debt ceiling deal includes a return to regular budgeting order. That would mean 12 appropriations bills and not CRs and baseline budgeting.
If they want to use the power of the purse, they have to get control of the purse back.
We all know they are corrupt. Wray, looks very shook up about being held in contempt. Who can confront them and get this corrected, the FBI, DHS, CIA, and the list continues. The Justice system, how about the old man calling himself president.
The only one left on earth is the military. Doesn’t seem likely. I have to go with God on this one. My plan is to pray… hard.
I’m tired of asking. God hears us the first time … How many times must we ask?? Does He not hear?
Wait. I’m checking my program.
Let’s see, James Comer ~ good guy. James Comey ~ bad guy.
Ok. Got it!
A quick reminder that Grassley says he has already seen the document which most likely means the whistleblower provided a copy. Which means Comer probably has it, too.
Just make it public. Screw the FBI.
I saw Comer’s presser. It seemed he saw it.
Give it to Steve Bannon and let him put it out.
This was my thought, too. I heard Comer say he already “has” the document, which is why he got Wray to let him look at the original….but if they “reveal” it before the contempt procedure they could jeopardize a prosecution. So be patient.
I am confident it will be leaked….
I’m not confident it will be leaked, but it should be.
They could release it and get the information out to the public. FBI would either have to refute it by producing the document or confirm its accuracy thereby negating the subpoena.
Give them the one thing they don’t want: public exposure.
They shouldn’t leak it. They should post it on the Congressional website and brief it in news conferences etc. “Here is the document the FBI doesn’t want the public to see.”
Grassley and Comer, please. They are not worthy, of trust or votes.
What about using a RICO or 1983 action against these evil ones? Ironic if either was used by Trump against Comey or Struck or the AG.
Because we’ve lost the DOJ, all of it. In fact, most of the Government now. The Military is mostly lost. What little is left is to into transgenderism and makeup to actually fight a war. What’s left? The Courts? Ask Kari Lake about the Courts. Our options shrink almost daily and none of them are very good at this point. Which is why my flag has been flying upside down now for some time.
The deep state has all of us Patrioby the throat and backed into a corner.
What is our move??
Good luck with that Comer.
Two tiered justice system in the home of the free.
Either Wray is unaware of the contempt the American citizens have for him and his “agency” or he believes we are powerless.
Could it be that he has 99% of Congress in his pocket (maybe blackmail, maybe bought off?) and so no consequences for his behavior will land on him?
Has he not heard the public at large’s derision of his “agency” and calls for disbandment, defunding, eliminate the FBI?
I am now hearing more and more people declaring it is beyond redemption and “we” should “burn it all down”
Either he is willfully blind, or believes he is untouchable.
“Pride cometh before the fall”
Wray is untouchable No doubt about it.
Wray isn’t controlling the FBI. If you believe he is, then you haven’t been paying attention. He’s a puppet on very short strings, just like most, if not all, cabinet members.
Does anyone really think that Alejandro Mayorkas believes that the border is secure?
Hell no
Whoever the puppet masters are, they’re the ones that are controlling everything.
What you and I see, is, as Sundance said, a Potemkin village…

Thinks he’s Keith Richards
Steve (Lento) Van Zandt.
Robert Hansson just died in jail at age 70. Aldrich Ames is still serving a life sentence at age 81. Why prosecute Bob and Aldrich for spying and not prosecute Hunter and Brandon and the kenyan and its henchmen/women and wingman? My guess is poor Bob and Aldrich were republicans. Brandon and his boss the Kenyan have done millions of times more damage to America than any other spies, double dealers and country sell outers. I’ll take a good old double agent over the slime spreaders anytime.
This is what I think of when anything comes from the swamp.
This is meaningless swamp gas meant to distract.
Ultra-MAGA!
If the whistleblower had a copy which he showed to Comer why didn’t Comer make a copy and release it to the public? The document was unclassified so what is the problem? If a democrat whistleblower had a document damning of Trump it would be leaked to a friendly news outlet in no time.
Keith, this is all fun and games for Comer, Grassley, Wray, Obama et al the slime balls. Just trying to get your dander up so they can squish you. All of those jerks are singing from the same song sheet. Song is something like The Day they Drove Old America Down. he he Keep your dander flat, Keith. Perhaps a time will come to get dandered up but that time is not now. Stay calm and hope for a staggering huge solar flare sizzles the slime. Live your best life.
I’m sorry, I’m tired of “we’re investigating” they JUST PASSED a budget funding the very corrupt silos that are obstructing their investigation. As far as I’m concerned, they’re all in preservation mode. No worries, soon, they will ALL be irrelevant.
No budget was passed, but that ceiling, wow, it’s was raised waaaaay up.
What will the distraction be? Another rushed bs indictment of Trump or UFOs?
I’d say the UFOs would be more credible to the voting public.
Ukraine is going to s#*@ as we speak. They have to do something to distract from the complete failure of US foreign policy, especially where they derive most of their corrupt sources of income from. Don’t even mention the 42 biolabs there making the next pathogen to be unleashed upon mankind. The “spring” offensive is being killed off right now and the US dollar being ruined right now. Prepare for poverty and destitution, brought to you by the deep state’s fever dream going south in Ukraine.
Who cares if there is an ongoing investigation…
Congress still has oversight.

Send in the U.S. Marshals. Take the records by force and arrest the FBI.
It is obvious to all that the FBI controls the country by blackmailing the politicians, that they have no intention of prosecuting Biden or his family. They are criminal organization. Jail them.
The root cause problem is that our “law enforcement” agencies are all lawbreakers and “fixers.”
Maybe they could send the Capitol Hill security thugs down the street to retrieve the document. Think they’d just obey that order?
Did you listen to Raskin?
He said Barr doj closed the investigation and saw no reason to investigate further.
We know. Isn’t that part of the whistleblower complaint? That it was improperly closed down.
Raskin also said he knows nothing about any ongoing investigation. He was stuttering through this part though. So either he is lieing or ignorant of any ongoing investigation…..or Comer is wrong. And I don’t think Comer is wrong.
Caught that too. If closed how can it be ongoing? Since when?
When are we the people going to run these corrupt traitors out of D.C.?
Seems like members of the House may, may, be starting to realize their positions of ‘authority’ were also taken over by the long-term coup and all these politicians are simply window dressing.
Will be interesting to see what kind of authority these ‘elected’ congress critters actually have when they finally wake up.
Nobody cares about this BS theatre that will go nowhere. President Trump better be on the ballot.
Every FILTHY Senator and Congress Critter will have hell to pay if he is not.
These Depraved, evil Democrats push and push.
We are patient. You take President Trump off the Ballot, you are playing with Righteous Anger and Rage.

Same old crap.
Since 2020? An ongoing investigation?
Did they brief the Gang of Eight?
Or was the matter too sensitive?
Wray is slapping Congressional oversight in the face with his dick
Congress is in charge of oversight of the FBI, And they should get daily updates on the progress of this investigation due to the “sensitivity of the matter” .
“James Comer said he will begin the process, this Thursday, to hold FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt of Congress.”
Playing by the rules and we reach the inevitable end. I can’t believe we are actually at this point.
It used to be the Republicans would have meekly thrown in the towel by now.
It used to be the Democrats would have started contempt hearings three Thursday’s ago at least.
Follow the bouncing ball.
Comer is GOPe. RINO.
Biden will not be the ‘24 Dem nominee. Grusome Newsome (CA) will be the ‘24 dim nominee.
This is all for show…the path by which Biden will be pushed aside.
Sundance has written of this (just not for a while now).
The only thing “real” about this “show” is the bribery scheme. All else serves a narrative.
War Criminals Better
Yup. Comer is the new GOPe-RINO face of the day, chosen to head up the new RINO season committee person who isn’t an old RINO who we’ve seen blab and blab to no end.
We know the drill.
