Thursday the IG released it’s findings into how the FBI handled the Hillary Clinton email investigation and if in fact political bias from agents effected their handling of investigations.
FBI Agent Peter Strzok, who headed the Clinton & Russia investigations, texted to his lover Lisa Page, in the IG Report, that “we’ll stop” candidate Trump from becoming President. Doesn’t get any lower than that!

Page 11 of the linked 568 page report
Strzok’s August 8 text message (“we’ll stop” candidate Trump from being elected), was that Strzok might be willing to take official action to impact a presidential candidate’s electoral prospects. Under these circumstances, we did not have confidence that Strzok’s decision to prioritize the Russia investigation over following up on the Midyear-related investigative lead
discovered on the Weiner laptop was free from bias. We searched for evidence that the Weiner laptop was deliberately placed on the back-burner by others in the FBI to protect Clinton, but found no evidence in emails, text messages, instant messages, or documents that suggested an improper purpose.
The IG Report is a total disaster for Comey, his minions and sadly, the FBI. Comey will now officially go down as the worst leader, by far, in the history of the FBI. I did a great service to the people in firing him. Good Instincts. Christopher Wray will bring it proudly back!

J. Edgar Hoover.
From page 36 of the 568 page report
We found no evidence that Comey’s decision to send the October 28 letter was influenced by political preferences.
From page 267 of the 568 page report
We found no evidence that Comey’s public statement announcing the FBI’s
decision to close the investigation was the result of bias or an effort to influence the election. Instead, the documentary and testimonial evidence reviewed by the OIG reflected that Comey’s decision was the result of his consideration of the evidence that the FBI had collected during the course of the investigation and his understanding of the proof required to pursue a prosecution under the relevant statutes.
The report adds, that it did find Comey acted outside Department Policy.
Thank you for all of the compliments on getting the World Cup to come to the U.S.A., Mexico and Canada. I worked hard on this, along with a Great Team of talented people. We never fail, and it will be a great World Cup! A special thanks to Bob Kraft for excellent advice.

U.S.A. Jobs numbers are the BEST in 44 years. If my opponent (the Democrats) had won the election, they would have raised taxes substantially and increased regulations – the economy, and jobs, would have been a disaster!

President Trump announced more tariffs to come. There will be more on that later.
Wow, the highest rated (by far) morning show, @foxandfriends, is on the Front Lawn of the White House. Maybe I’ll have to take an unannounced trip down to see them?

“Why in the world didn’t Barack Obama fire this guy (Comey)?” asks Mark Levin!

The Democrats are forcing the breakup of families at the Border with their horrible and cruel legislative agenda. Any Immigration Bill MUST HAVE full funding for the Wall, end Catch & Release, Visa Lottery and Chain, and go to Merit Based Immigration. Go for it! WIN!

The policy to remove children from their parents at the border is a DOJ, lead by Jeff Sessions (R-AL), policy, Sessions who on Thursday defended the announced in April 2018 policy of zero tolerance, invoked the Bible as justification
AG Jeff Sessions on immigration policy: Illegal entry into the US is a crime; "I would cite you to the apostle Paul and his clear and wise command in Romans 13, to obey the laws of the government because God has ordained the government for his purposes." https://t.co/dARdLrNPbW pic.twitter.com/nu5EWCWlJW

It was announced this week that the House planned to vote on two immigration plans, one authored by Bob Goodlatte, (R-VA) and a more moderate compromise measure that’s draft was released on Thursday, via USA Today includes $23.4 billion dollars to go toward the border wall to be added to the already 1.6 billion given toward funding of the wall, giving President Trump his $25 billion requested. The compromise bill also ends separating families at the border.
This morning
Trump says he will not sign the GOP's "moderate" version of their immigration bill, confusing some Republicans who believed he supported the plan https://t.co/HiR2FpiPto

Later this morning
Trump signals support for moderate GOP immigration bill, which will be taken up by the House next week. https://t.co/ZNfCTxK4yo

"President Trump could stop this policy with a phone call." @LindseyGrahamSC says the policy separating families at the border is not "law" like the President continues to declare.https://t.co/xh7aDCQgfW

Wow, what a tough sentence for Paul Manafort, who has represented Ronald Reagan, Bob Dole and many other top political people and campaigns. Didn’t know Manafort was the head of the Mob. What about Comey and Crooked Hillary and all of the others? Very unfair!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 15, 2018
Paul Manafort appeared in court this morning and had his bail revoked, when evidence turned up that he while released on bail he and another man, tried to tamper with two witnesses. His first trial is set for July, in Virginia, while his other trial is scheduled to begin in September, in D.C.
At this time Hillary Clinton and James Comey have not been charged with any crimes.
I’ve had to beat 17 very talented people including the Bush Dynasty, then I had to beat the Clinton Dynasty, and now I have to beat a phony Witch Hunt and all of the dishonest people covered in the IG Report…and never forget the Fake News Media. It never ends!

The general presidential election was held November 8, 2016.
