Tom (Retired FBI Agent)

My experience has been that that's not going to be tolerated or brushed under the carpet.

So that's my subjective experience.

The other thing I would say is these cases of the last few years, the cases involving

Political candidates on both sides of the aisle.

All of those things.

The beginning of the Russia investigation, you'll recall that a special counsel was appointed, I believe it was by President Trump, to investigate how that investigation was started and whether there was something inappropriate.

I don't hold myself out as an expert on any of these matters.

Right.

I had no involvement, I should say, in any way with any of these cases whatsoever.

Very few FBI employees of the 30,000, only a very small percentage would have had any involvement in those controversies.

But what I'm trying to...

remind folks of is that there's been investigations by the Department of Justice Inspector General who investigated Comey's handling the FBI's investigation in general, the Clinton matter involving her email server and so forth.

Special counsel has looked at investigations that touched on President Trump.

And all of these identified mistakes, missteps, things that could have been done better.

But to my knowledge, not one investigation has actually found a specific incident where they could show that the decision was made by an improper political purpose.

In other words, the bear didn't wake up.

you know, the one morning and say, let's go get that person and turn our, that's my subjective experience.

People are free to, others will not accept that.

And that's their right.

Oh, I have no reason to doubt his sincerity.
