Kash Patel: The FBI's Years Long Stonewalling on the 2017 Congressional Baseball Game Assassin Is Over
This is chilling. Particularly when you consider that the Democrat Party and permanent Deep State are currently agitating for more political violence against Trump, Musk, and anyone associated with the right.
FBI Director Kash Patel announced this week that he had handed over to Congress long-sought bureau records related to the 2017 congressional baseball game shooting following years of House Republicans arguing the bureau was stonewalling on why it had labeled the attack "suicide by cop" instead of domestic terrorism. James Hodgkinson, an extreme left-wing activist living out of a van in northern Virginia opened fire on Republicans at an Alexandria baseball field on June 14, 2017 after asking GOP congressmen who had left the practice early if the players were Republicans or Democrats. GOP Congressman Steve Scalise nearly died as a result of the attack. Before opening fire, Hodgkinson reportedly asked if the players on the field were Republicans, and then proceeded with his armed assault. Republican congressmen have for years harshly criticized the 2017 decision by the FBI, led in an acting capacity at the time by Andrew McCabe, not to label the shooting by Hodgkinson as domestic terrorism despite his targeting of elected Republican leaders as they practiced for the annual Congressional Baseball Game. The FBI had instead dubbed the attack "suicide by cop" -- a position the bureau refused to reverse until 2021, and a position the FBI has never fully explained. ...
As he sprayed bullets at the GOP members practicing for a baseball game, Hodgkinson's gunfire struck Scalise in the hip, hit lobbyist Matt Mika in the chest, and injured two Capitol Police officers, Crystal Griner and David Bailey. Scalise nearly bled to death and required multiple surgeries before returning to Congress. The shooter, who was killed by police, had written down the names of GOP congressmen. McCabe, who was deeply involved in the FBI's roundly criticized Crossfire Hurricane investigation, took over the FBI after the May 2017 firing of former FBI Director James Comey, who himself had played a key role in the false Trump-Russia collusion saga. It was during McCabe's tenure that the bureau rejected calling the shooting "domestic terrorism." McCabe did not respond to a request for comment from Just the News through his LinkedIn page. ... Hodgkinson supporter of Democratic presidential primary candidate and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, was killed by law enforcement after the attack. Infuriated by Trump winning the 2016 election, he had posted on Facebook that "Trump is a Traitor. Trump Has Destroyed Our Democracy. It's Time to Destroy Trump & Co." and had joined other groups such as "Terminate The Republican Party" and "Join The Resistance Worldwide!!" The FBI declared just a week after the shooting in June 2017 that it did not consider the baseball shooting a terrorist attack, saying, "The FBI is investigating this shooting as an assault on a member of Congress and an assault on a federal officer. At this point in the investigation, the FBI does not believe there is a nexus to terrorism." The FBI held onto this position for years. ... "Much to our shock that day, the FBI concluded that this was a case of the attacker seeking suicide by cop," Wenstrup said. "Director, you want suicide by cop, you just pull a gun on a cop. It doesn't take 136 rounds. It takes one bullet. Both [Department of Homeland Security] and the [Office of the Director of National Intelligence] published products labeling this attack as a domestic violent extremism event, specifically targeting Republican members of Congress. The FBI did not. The FBI still has not."

When they want to say "terrorist attack" they define terrorism as ... well, they never really tell us.
It's how they can say there are more "white supremacist" terrorist attacks in the US than Muslim ones.
Years ago, I want to say during the Obama administration, DHS actually released their raw data on terrorist attacks.
Almost all of the "white supremacist" terror attacks were gang violence in prisons. So an Aryan Nations guy stabbed a Mexican Mafia guy over a heroin debt or whatever, and that's terrorism.
A muslim shooting up a crowd? We can't find any others from Syria telling him to do so, so no nexus to terrorism.

What do we mean by "good people"? I think the vast majority of FBI employees are just there to get a pay check, and they'll do what they're told and they don't really care about the bigger picture.
Does that make them bad people? Not really.
Does a change in leadership mean those people will act differently? I don't know. It is Washington DC after all, so I doubt it. They all marinate in that culture.

What to do, what to do? The FBI apparently was the only LE agency interested in that $250 million Feeding Our Future fraud in Minnesota. God knows AG Keith Ellison wasn't going to look into it, and Gov Tim Walz had other priorities.
So we sift out the agents who have actually done some work in the past 10 years, ask them what they need, and rebuild the agency from scratch? I really don't know.

Give it time. Maybe in 20-30 years there will be a congressional hearing or two, and then 60 years, most of the extant documents will be released (but all the important ones will have long since been shredded, and anyone involved is dead).
At least that's how it played out with the JFK assassination. Well, other than the sham Warren Commission which was basically run by suspect #1 in JFK's death, Allen Dulles, and a truly retarded SCOTUS justice, Earl Warren.
You read the transcripts of some of those meetings and you get a better idea why SCOTUS does not want cameras in the room for oral arguments.
Dulles had to patiently explain to Warren that yes, CIA and FBI agents would lie under oath, and it wasn't worth even deposing them, since they would just lie. Warren couldn't wrap his mind around that, and they had to go off the record.

We saw this EXACT thing play out in the 80's about putting Women into Combat. A LOT of really good Men did not agree, yet were silenced because to say your actual opinion was career suicide. Soon, no one would speak... so those who came into the system later, were indoctrinated into that belief... with no opposition.
Even now, when the National Consensus is that Women should not compete with Men in Sports... you will STILL not find any real opposition to Women being in the ultimate physical Darwinian Sport...

Yes, Dulles was unemployed at the time and he seemed to run the show. Everyone else had day jobs. But Ford was Dulles's right hand man, and the guy who did a lot of the witness interviews.
He also came up with the magic bullet theory.
Clearly he was working with Dulles to come up with a cohesive narrative.

Because to Earl Warren, a cop telling a suspect "hey your partner already flipped on ya, ya see? He's singing like a bird. Your only chance to save yourself is to tell me your version of the story, and I'll get the judge to go easy on ya!" is much different than lying to a judge under oath.

The FBI was running protection for the No. 2 Dem in the Senate, Dirty Dick Durbin. That is what this was about. Durbin has never been questioned over what he knew and when of that asshole's plans despite meeting with the murderous terrorist.
Same as McCain never answered the question of why he met with ISIL terrorists from Syria.
The Senate in general and the House leadership have demonstrated that a lot of them are compromised by criminal activities even beyond their normal grifting.
For example, who wanted Seth Rich dead or the Vegas shooting among other coverups by the FBI.

This was a ripped front seal that apparently everyone but me knew about (SMDH), and it had leaked water onto the motor control board. $115 part for the seal.
Miraculously, the motor control board soldiered on after drying it out, which is kind of a testament that earned my loyalty to this particular machine (Maytag Neptune).
Now it's good as new and all cleaned out, including the calcified and clogged front seal drain lines.

This is false and ridiculously silly. LEOs are allowed to lie as an investigative technique. For example, during an interrogation, they can say they have evidence against the person under investigation even if they don't. As another example, when they're undercover and someone asks them, "Are you a cop!?!" they're allowed to lie and say no.
They are NOT allowed to lie, "at any point." For example, when writing a report, it's not legal for them to lie about findings. It's not legal for them to lie in court about their findings.

Yeah, SCOTUS has been pushing that envelope too far lately. You probably remember the case, and I may butcher the details, but not long ago in NC (I believe) a cop pulled someone over for having a taillight out. Searched the car, found drugs. Arrested the guy for the drugs.
Turns out, NC law was written in like 1895 and all the traffic code said was that a light must be lit in the rear of the vehicle. The guy had 2/3 of his taillights working.
SCOTUS said "well, listen, the cop made a genuine mistake, the search was still good."
That's not a great precedent. If the arresting officer is wrong on the law, he shouldn't get a pass. If anything, he should get reprimanded.

How about a $2.50 paper bill, or, coin?
Would that be weird? I think some european currency has some uneven denominations.

Scotus has dodged defining the 'true threats' is why. Watts established the test, "To be protected as political hyperbole or jest, courts have identified what have come to be known as “the Watts factors” in true-threat analysis:
(1) the context of the statement or statements in question;
(2) the conditional nature of the supposed threat; and
(3) the reaction of the recipient or listeners. (In Watts’ case, many of the listeners laughed when they heard his comments.)"
but what constitutes mens reas (guilty mind) comes from Elonis case and Counterman v. CO,
"The Supreme Court’s decision found that to criminally prosecute a defendant based on true threats, the defendant’s subjective intent to threaten the victim must be established based on a showing of (at least) recklessness." The earlier Elonis decision requires that a criminal conviction for true threats prove defendant intended to threaten or did not care about the effect on the listener.

I have come to the conclusion that energy is probably the least objectionable basis for currency. After all, hard to debase a kwh. And more energy means a wealthier society and less means a far poorer one.

Well I think he means "free trade" in the way it works today.
But also, even if we had actual free trade, it still wouldnt be a good deal for the american middle class.
How is importing slightly cheaper widgets from Mexico at the expense of shutting down all of the widget factories in the US interior good for the people who live in the US interior?
It was always about "spreading the wealth" from the US to the rest of the world, starting with the Marshall plan.

This may seem to not apply, but I once read an SF story written very early on (pre WWII) that was a sequel to War of the Worlds where Edison and friends build electrical ships to invade Mars. They take a test spin in one of the ships to the Moon and discover a crater full of these new "Moon Gems" that were prettier than diamonds. Someone said "and worth uncounted billions"
I knew enough economics to say "not worth crap" since they were on the bottom of every crater on the moon and the space ships they had were trivial to sail to the moon.
they Earthings win by blowing the canal dykes and drowning all of Mars.
