Former FBI Assistant Director Drops the Bomb on Comey Firing

James Kallstrom is a former assistant director of the FBI, and believes that the president was justified in firing Mr. Comey. He explains his view in an interview with Breitbart News.

“He was fired for cause in my view,” James Kallstrom informs Breitbart News. “When the referral came to the bureau close to a year ago, Comey knew at that point, if not soon after, that the Justice Department had no interest in conducting a criminal investigation of Hillary Clinton. They would never approve a grand jury and they would never approve an indictment.”

Kallstrom faults Comey for presiding over a “sham” investigation of Clinton. From granting unnecessary immunity deals to conducting an interview of Clinton not under oath to too slickly issuing a document dump the day after the Fourth of July, the FBI deviated from standard-operating procedure during the investigation of the former secretary of state’s reliance on private servers to send and receive classified material, Kalstrom says.

“He did something the FBI never does,” the former head of the FBI’s New York office points out of Comey. “It never discloses the charges against an unindicted person—ever.”

Kallstrom maintains, “He was so out of left field—the things he did.”

There is a lot of material there. It’s clear that Comey was in way over his head. He didn’t know how to handle a corrupt Justice Department which was acting to shield Hillary Clinton from investigations and to prevent her indictment. Hence, Comey blundered from one error to another as it appears his hope was to run out the clock as the controversy died down on its own.

As we’ve seen, this was not to be as matters relating to Hillary and her corruption remain very much alive.

So why did Comey get canned?

“The cause [for firing] is that he took upon himself authority he didn’t have, number one,” Kallstrom says of the former FBI director acting as a de facto prosecutor rather than as a mere investigator. “Number two, he told the public that he undertook a ‘thorough’ investigation. You can’t put ‘thorough’ and ‘lack of a grand jury’ in the same sentence. He threw the reputation of the FBI under the bus.”

This is a point made here before. When law enforcement agencies make decisions based on political expediencies instead of objectively, you no longer have a proper law enforcement agency, but a tool of political corruption. In this case, democracy goes out the window as respect for the law declines and a police state ultimately ensues.

Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign manager, Robby Mook, is frightened by the firing of Comey.

Twilight zone. I was as disappointed and frustrated as anyone at how the email investigation was handled. But this terrifies me.

Of course, there is good reason for the entire Clinton camp to be spooked! Will Trump’s new FBI director finally bring justice to this criminal enterprise?

President Trump will take a lot of heat for this decision, but it was the right one. We cannot have someone leading the FBI whose incompetence damages the institution and the respect the people have for it.
