Bye Bye Christopher Wray

December 3, 2024 — bunkerville

What may be lost in the kerfuffle over Kash Patel’s nomination to the FBI directorship, its so long Mr. Wray.  I have no intention of going through a laundry list of his failings.

But it is worth noting that last Friday, another J6er was arrested. Like a dog on a bone they won’t give up. So of all Wray’s failures, the deployment of human assets should go down as one of his worst failings. Churches, schools, clinics, there never were enough targets to go after as long as they were conservative.

The Washington Times picks it up:

In 2020, the FBI director dispatched no fewer than 15 special agents to Talladega Superspeedway to investigate a garage door pull-down after NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace suggested it might be evidence of a hate crime. That’s almost as many detectives as the Los Angeles Police Department assigned to investigate the Manson Family murder spree in the late 1960s.

The bureau hasn’t let up on its unprecedented nationwide dragnet, indicting 1,243 conservatives for trespassing at the U.S. Capitol nearly four years ago. Last Friday, a Florida man was charged with using “a deadly or dangerous weapon” on the west front of the Capitol. The lethal implement wasn’t a gun or a knife, as the terms imply. It was a large Trump 2020 banner.

While rambunctious sign bearers are being identified and captured using high-tech spy tools, the same FBI asserts it has no idea who planted pipe bombs outside the Democratic and Republican Party headquarters on Jan. 6.

We likewise know little about the men who attempted to assassinate Mr. Trump. The FBI brass seem willing to talk only when the discussion advances a political narrative favored by the current administration.

The most potent bullet point on Mr. Patel’s resume is the one outlining his service as chief investigator for then-House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes. The committee’s work ultimately exposed the Russia hoax that Hillary Clinton created and the FBI perpetuated — including on Mr. Wray’s watch.

Bunk here had to go to the Hindustan Times to find a video of Kash Patel without a lengthy liberal commentary. All claiming retribution was in the works. Says it all. There is a difference between retribution and accountability.

When Trump’s FBI Pick Kash Patel Vowed To Bust The ‘Deep State’ | ‘Hijacked FBI, Lied To Judge’

..

The nominee summed up his intentions at the Conservative Political Action Conference in February: “We are going to look back and say, we helped destroy the two-tiered system of justice that is targeting Americans illegally. We helped destroy and identify an intelligence community that has gone rogue to seize our right to vote with their lies and fake disinformation campaigns.”

The best of the swamp.

Russia Russia Russia… Here we go again with Garland and Wray

September 5, 2024 — bunkerville

There they were. AG Garland and FBI Wray telling us, warning us about Russia disinformation. Wray, almost seemed to have to make an effort not to smile. Sitting there, the pompous fools, us knowing exactly what they intend to do to Trump. Perhaps covering what they already are doing and spying on anyone who might be a threat to therm.

So-called Russian disinformation is anything that the Biden Regime wants to censor.

During the 2020 election, the Democrat-media-Deep State complex labeled Hunter Biden’s laptop story ‘Russian disinformation’ and lobbied Big Tech to censor the blockbuster October surprise.

51 top intel officials also lied about the laptop from hell. The Spies Who Lie:

 NBC News: Biden administration to hit Russia with sanctions for trying to manipulate U.S. opinion ahead of the election – The administration will announce a series of actions Wednesday, according to two senior officials.

KEN DILANIAN, NBC NEWS: This is being described by our sources as “a whole-of-government action designed to target Russian propaganda and disinformation aimed at interfering in the 2024 election.”

…..

What’s also very interesting, Jose, is that disinformation is not confined to foreign entities. Americans engage in disinformation all the time, but the FBI and the Justice Department are very reluctant to call that out, given First Amendment considerations.

Free speech includes the right to lie, and Americans do that all the time in our political discourse. However, they cannot act as a front for foreign disinformation operations. That’s when laws are violated, and the DOJ takes enforcement action.

OK… Bonus time as I close:

The best of the swamp. P.S. Tell Trump to start using this stuff in his ads!

FBI Used Undercover Agent to Target Leadership of the US Catholic Church

April 13, 2023 — bunkerville

 

Confirmed. The FBI did have informants in Catholic churches. Documents released on Monday confirm this, Meanwhile Merrick Garland continues to claim otherwise.

Here we go:

A few weeks ago, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) asked  chief Merrick Garland, “Are you cultivating sources and spies in Latin Mass parishes and other Catholic parishes around the country?” Garland pleaded innocent, insisting, “No, the Justice Department does not do that and does not, uh, um, do investigations based on religion.”

But it has now come to light — okay, get ready for the shock of your life — that Garland was lying. The feds did have informants in Catholic churches, snooping around and looking for evidence of that domestic terror threat that the Biden regime keeps insisting is the worst such threat we face today. Nor is there any indication that they’ve taken these spies out of the pews.

In November 2021, FBI and Homeland Security Department officials increased investigations of “domestic extremists,” reiterating the claim that they are today’s foremost terror threat. The only problem with this was that there just weren’t enough “domestic violent extremists” to match the hysterical rhetoric, and so the FBI actually resorted to pressuring agents to inflate domestic extremism numbers, and even to fabricate such cases.

That imperative, plus the burning hatred that Catholic Joe’s regime clearly has for all forms of traditional Christianity and above all for pro-lifers, may have led to the fact that, as Fox News reported Monday, the FBI “recently sought to develop sources inside Christian churches and Catholic dioceses as part of an effort to combat domestic terrorism.” This is clear from internal FBI documents that the House Judiciary Committee released to the public on Monday.

 

 

The internal documents — obtained last month by House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, and Rep. Mike Johnson, R-La., who are also members of the so-called Weaponization Subcommittee — showed the FBI planned to use churches as “new avenues for tripwire and source development.” The federal law enforcement agency also aimed to specifically target “mainline Catholic parishes” as part of its efforts.

FBI Christopher Wray at WEF Discusses Success in Controlling Pre-Crime

January 23, 2023 — bunkerville

t was FBI’s Chris Wray’s remarks at the WEF that should be the most concerning. One would wonder why Wray found his way to Davos, and just what was his agenda? For those concerned about the FBI’s intrusion into our lives, he didn’t disappoint. 

The FBI is a criminal investigative agency. Meaning, a crime is committed, and the FBI mission is to investigate it, solve it, and bring the information to the justice department for pursuit. At least that was the customary role of the FBI as it was/is commonly discussed.

However, please note that in Director Wray’s remarks, every element of the FBI mission is framed around “prevention” of criminal activity, or what we would call pre-crimes.    Conservative Tree House

Change the mission from the investigation of crime to the prevention of crime, and the entire apparatus of the mission fundamentally changes.

Criminals are no longer the target when you are preventing crimes.  Criminals are only targets in the aftermath of crime.  When you are preventing crime, everyone that could commit a crime is the new mission target.  Everyone, regardless of their connection to – or association with – criminal activity, is now a potential criminal.   Potential criminals must be monitored.

Potential criminals are now the target.  You are a potential criminal.  As a result of your potential ability, you are a target for pre-crime investigation.  Within the process of pre-crime investigation, your archaic views of freedom and liberty are dispatched.

The office of the Director of National Intelligence was created to turn the terrorist radar internally.  Every American is now a potential “domestic terrorist.”  Thus, you see FBI Director Christopher Wray sitting on a stage and openly admitting the FBI partnerships with the private sector are key to the mission; a mission of pre-crime targeting.

 

Helena picks up the story

Imagine how this could play out in a Communist Regime America?   A Police Officer gives someone a ticket for speeding because they looked like they might speed based on the make of the car, although they were not.   Or, it looked like you might be a shoplifter, so we pre-emptively arrested you.   Or, you own a gun, therefore you may use it to harm someone given you are an angry person…  Arrest.  Jail.

Despite the FBI being a US Agency tasked with US crimes, Wray chose to go the WEF as a US representative to call for a ‘global FBI’.   But we already have a global FBI, it is called the CIA.   So what is he doing?

Other comments made by Wray include his deep fear of China’s AI.   Why?   According to Wray, China stole massive amounts of data and intellectual property over the years.   Their evolution into AI is now greater than the US industry and Wray is concerned of what they might do.   I mean, I get it to a point, it is somewhat like preventative medicine.

EXCEPT.   The FBI allowed the Thousand Talents Program to infiltrate the US for nearly a decade without any concerns at all apparently.  UNDER Wray’;s watch.  So why was China ‘good’ then and ‘bad’ now?   What changed?   Not China.   China is exactly the same – just as all communists are like stagflation – they don’t move unless pushed.

Wray has been FBI Director for 5 ½ years.   During all that time China was busily gobbling up every piece of intellectual proprietary information from all our Elite Schools, including Harvard.   They were assisted by Fauci’s NIH with funding and grants.   So. What’s the new beef?   Crickets?

 

Here are Wray’s remarks. Listen carefully. (Skip ad)

Trial of Gov Whitmer Kidnapping Hoax – What Country is this?

August 17, 2022 — bunkerville

 

“FBI assets repeatedly confirm that even by August 2020, there was no plan to kidnap and kill Whitmer. So they turned up the heat and added another FBI agent to sucker the targets.”

A trial that is not getting the attention it so richly deserves, the intrepid Tucker Carlson picks up the story  of the infamous Whitmer kidnapping plot. And it doesn’t end with Whitmer:

 

But the government not only attempted to manufacture “terrorists” in the Whitmer kidnapping hoax—the same FBI operation also tried to coax a man in Virginia to participate in the same sort of plot against Virginia Governor Ralph Northam. That scheme didn’t fully materialize, but the FBI’s attempt to pull off a similar stunt in Virginia reveals just how far agents were willing to go to bolster FBI Director Christopher Wray’s false warning that domestic extremists planned to “kill and assassinate” public officials.

Read more

 

The set up:

Under questioning from Sen. Ted Cruz, FBI Director Chris Wray admits the FBI Special Agent in Charge of the Detroit Field Office who oversaw the Whitmer kidnapping entrapment and “absolute debacle” is now in charge of the Washington, D.C. Office, overseeing the J6 investigation.

 

 

Even the old grey lady has a headline thinks there may be some “mistrust”:

Two men are charged with conspiring to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. But a first trial ended with no convictions, and questions about the F.B.I.’s tactics.

Building that trust was already hard, as jurors showed in April when they acquitted two men and failed to reach verdicts for Mr. Croft and Mr. Fox. But it may be more difficult at a time of even higher political tension, with Ms. Whitmer, a Democrat, campaigning for re-election and F.B.I. agents searching former President Donald J. Trump’s Florida home this week, a move that many Republicans have decried as a weaponization of the Justice Department. You think so? Read more NY Times

 

You have the drift by now. And now the same fine fellow that headed up this whole thing moves on to D.C. Rewarded to now finish off the January 6 investigation. Good work Director Wray.

Julie Kelly from American Greatness gives a blow by blow of the trial and you can “read the conversation.” for more details.

This is a story that needs to be covered with a full court press and by more than Tucker.

DOJ Refuses to Back Down Activating FBI Counterterrorism Division Against School Parents

January 11, 2022 — bunkerville

AG Garland is only getting started. He is not backing down in his survelliance of Americans attending school board meetings. In a just released memo from the DOJ to Senator Grassley. “We’re not going to withdraw the memo.” With that, the police state moves on to criminalize free speech.

No headline for this follow-up to the FBI infiltrating our school board meetings.

Zero Hedge:

In a quiet response to the Senate Judiciary Committee three days before Christmas, the Biden DOJ says it won’t withdraw a controversial memo used to activate the FBI Counterterrorism Division to investigate parents voicing their opposition to a variety of topics – primarily mask and vaccine mandates, and teaching critical race theory.

This week, Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) revealed the pre-Christmas response – stating:

“[I]n December we asked why the FBI’s Counterterrorism Division was getting involved in parents expressing their concerns at school board meetings. Now, just to be crystal clear, there’s no excuse for real threats or acts of violence at school board meetings, but if there are such threats, these should be handled at the local level and the Attorney General should withdraw his memo that started this whole thing.

“Well, a couple days before Christmas, the Justice Department responded to us with just a one-page letter. (Well worth clicking on the link for the arrogance.)

“In that letter, DOJ had nothing to say about why the FBI’s Counterterrorism Division was involved in local school-board matters. DOJ just said, ‘We’re not going to withdraw the memo.’ So, the Feds may be keeping track of school board meetings—even if it creates a horrible chilling effect. And, of course the FBI looking over your shoulder would have a chilling effect. Next week the Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing on domestic terrorism. I hope we’re going to be focusing on the serious threats facing our country—and I hope no one thinks the focus is on our nation’s parents.”

Keep your eye out for these Feds. Coming to your school board meeting soon. The operative word now is “entrapment.”

FBI doing ‘undercover’ in DC….Note the bulge in their pocket.

I’m betting that the young FBI guys posing as right-wing protesters are being told by superiors that they are “in deep cover” to “preserve democracy and The Constitution”.

D.C.

And what are “our boys” the FBI doing this past weekend?

Here they are in Philadelphia last summer.

Same group in Philadelphia in July. “White Supremacists Ran Away” goes the headline. Where was it held? In Center City and down to Penn’s Landing, the safest place in Philadelphia.

FBI to start investigating parents who resist school board policies and decisions

October 5, 2021 — bunkerville 

Attorney General Merrick Garland is mobilizing the FBI and U.S. attorneys to “investigate and prosecute” protests at public school board meetings.

“Threats against public servants are not only illegal, they run counter to our nation’s core values,” Garland wrote in a memo Monday to FBI Director Christopher Wray and Justice Department prosecutors. “Those who dedicate their time and energy to ensuring that our children receive a proper education in a safe environment deserve to be able to do their work without fear for their safety.

With the stroke of a pen AG Merrick Garland will use the FBI to hunt you down like the dogs they think you are if you resist the indoctrination of your children at school. You are now a domestic terrorist if you resist your school board. Your children will wear a mask, take the jab, have Critical Race Theory taught, including so called sex education and they will have your children hating America. Intimidation at its finest. The parents? All they have to do is take a look at the languishing of the January 6 demonstrators in solitary confinement to get the message.

Without laying claim to one case, Garland will now insert the FBI into our governance. And they are just getting started.

The best of the swamp today. For the best in conservative news push the button.

FBI Wray says ANTIFA not involved in Jan 6 riots after literally arresting John Sullivan leader

March 3, 2021 — bunkerville

 

Crickets on the reporting of congressional hearing yesterday of FBI Wray. Liar liar pants on fire. He was under oath so one can only assume he has not a worry about a consequence. He even refused to reveal how Officer Sicknick died though it has been widely reported even by his wife that he did not die with any fire extinguisher. More worrisome is how much spying is and was done on Americans by the FBI using the riot for justification.

 

FBI Wray

A few of the low lights.

FBI Director Chris Wray testified before Congress Tuesday that the FBI has not seen any evidence that those who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6 were linked to the antifa movement. However, on January 14th the FBI literally arrested Antifa leader John Sullivan for his role in the planning, coordination and participation in the January 6th Capitol Hill riot.

 

 

Senator Lee specifically asks FBI Director Wray if they are using cell phone geolocation and under what legal authority this is being done:  National Security Letters? FISA Court? Search warrants based on probable cause?

 

 

H/T: Conservative Tree House

 

Recall how Parler was compromised. No doubt the FBI is going through the data.

Hacker Archives Every Deleted Parler Post -“Very Incriminating” UPDATE

Following last week’s incursion into the US Capitol building by Trump supporters and the founder of a BLM group, a researcher who goes by the Twitter handle @donk_enby got to work archiving every post from that day made on Parler – a conservative alternative to Twitter where many claim the protesters coordinated leading up to the incident which left five people dead. Enby calls the evidence “very incriminating.”

Then, after Amazon announced that they were going kill conservative Twitter rival Parler, @donk_enby began archiving posts prior to the 6th, ultimately preserving approximately 99.9% of its content, according to Gizmodo.

Hoping to create a lasting public record for future researchers to sift through, @donk_enby began by archiving the posts from that day. The scope of the project quickly broadened, however, as it became increasingly clear that Parler was on borrowed time. Apple and Google announced that Parler would be removed from their app stores because it had failed to properly moderate posts that encouraged violence and crime. The final nail in the coffin came Saturday when Amazon announced it was pulling Parler’s plug. –Gizmodo

Included in the data harvest is “original, unprocessed, raw files uploaded to Parler with all associated metadata.

New York Post

FBI Director Christopher Wray on Tuesday refused to tell senators the cause of death for Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, whose death heavily influenced coverage of the Capitol riot.

Reports after Jan. 6 originally said Sicknick died after being bludgeoned by a fire extinguisher while fighting off then-President Donald Trump’s supporters, which authorities didn’t deny at the time. The claim became part of the impeachment trial case against Trump for allegedly inciting the riot — though his family now says it’s untrue.

Wray cited an “ongoing” investigation into Sicknick’s death.

 

 

The best of the swamp that has not been reported.

FBI Sends Out Memo Warning White Supremacists Pose Greatest Risk of Violence

June 11, 2020 — bunkerville

 

FBI Wray apparently is more concerned with the Right Wingers than Antifa and Black Lives Matter even though they are working their magic in Seattle as I write this.

 Antifa Releases List of Demands After Taking Over 6 Square Block Section in Seattle and Setting Up Armed Security Watch — List Includes Reparations and Ending Police Dept.

No matter. Apparently the Right Wingers cannot wait to start a revolution. Forget the Millions of dollars of destruction and Mayhem the Antifa has caused. Here tis:

White supremacists and racist domestic terrorists pose the largest threat of violence in the United States amid nationwide protests across the country, according to a new intelligence bulletin.

The bulletin — which was sent to local law enforcement by the FBI, Department of Homeland Security and National Counterterrorism Center and reported by ABC News — warns of threats by left-wing and anarchist groups as well.

But it barely mentions Antifa as a potential violent group — though federal lawmakers have called for the loosely affiliated movement to be labeled a terror group amid nationwide protests against police brutality.

In addition, militias and right-wing racist groups are seeking to start a second American Civil War by targeting protests, according to the report.

“Militia extremists and [groups] who advocate a belief in the superiority of the white race have sought to bring about a second civil war, often referred to as a ‘Boogaloo’ by intentionally instigating violence at First Amendment-protected activities,” the bulletin states.

While experts previously told ABC News that the ideology of some antifa adherents includes anarchism — along with socialism and communism — mention of the movement itself in the bulletin is relegated to a footnote. It says, “Some anarchist extremists self-identify as ‘Antifa,’ a moniker for anti-fascist that is also used by non-violent adherents. Identifying with ‘Antifa’ or using the term without engaging in violent extremism may also be constitutionally protected.

“Militia extremists and [groups] who advocate a belief in the superiority of the white race have sought to bring about a second civil war, often referred to as a ‘Boogaloo’ by intentionally instigating violence at First Amendment-protected activities,” the bulletin states.

The document only mentions the existence of Antifa once in a footnote, according to the report, noting that some anarchists self identify as “Antifa.”

Welcome to the Coup d’état underway – Brennan and Democrats urge anarchy

September 20, 2018 — bunkerville

 

Intervention of the Sabine Women

The Coup d’état is underway. Make no mistake. The Dems are creating anarchy and the rate we are going may be successful. The Kavanaugh debacle with the Democrats not even willing to give Grassley a copy of the unredacted letter written by Ford with her claims.

More scurrilous are the efforts by the Democrats to keep and support Rosenstein’s henchmen in refusing an order from Trump to totally declassify numerous documents bearing on the absurd Russia Russia Russia investigation.

Wish America luck, a few more months and it looks like we will know the answer. The GOP caving on Kavanaugh, add information withheld from the White House will do it. The topper will be losing the November election to the Dems and there will be no turning back.

Here are two excerpts that deserve the complete read.

UPDATE: Video of Brennan has been added below! How Arrogant! Not the Andrea Mitchell interview.

The combination of arrogance, hubris and desperation within a letter (pdf here) from the four Democrats on the intelligence oversight Gang of Eight, is palpable even in text format.

Legislative branch members: Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Adam Schiff and Mark Warner write a letter today to Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, and FBI Director Christopher Wray, demanding the executive branch cabinet members withhold information from the White House.

Perhaps more stunningly, and extra-constitutionally (meaning outside the framework of constitutional separation of power), within the jaw-dropping letter the four Democrats outline previous verbal conversations and current agreements with Coats, Rosenstein and Wray where the Cabinet officers agreed to keep information away from the White House Chief Executive, the President.

That third paragraph is particularly interesting: …”the verbal assurance you provided us that DOJ and FBI would not provide the White House“…

More at Conservative Tree House

 

Now from the Communist Brennan:

Former CIA director and MSNBC contributor John Brennan called on FBI director Christopher Wray, Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats, and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein to “push back” on any directive from the White House that may have a “negative impact” on the Mueller investigation.

 

Brennan called on “individuals of conscience” in the administration to remember that they took an oath of office not an oath to Donald Trump. Moments prior Brennan admonished people who are abusing their powers to “protect” Trump.

“I think that they should continue to push, push, push, and if Mr. Tump and the White House does not relent, then they have some decisions to make, and whether or not they are going to the just not follow that direction and be fired or to resign,” Brennan said of the trio.

“A number of individuals are trying to protect Mr. Trump and abusing their authorities and their powers, whether it be in Congress or within the executive branch,” Brennan said on MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell Reports. “And this is something that I am hoping that individuals of conscience are going to stop and prevent because I am concerned that this is just one indication that Mr. Trump is going to increasingly look for steps to take in order to further to try to subvert the Mueller investigation.” Video and more over at  Real Clear Politics
