Congressional hearings like this have turned into politicians (congressmen) grandstanding shows. There's no denying that, but that being said both Republican and Democrat congressmen do the grandstanding.
If a investigation starts with a crime and evidence, which leads to a criminal, it is, in fact, a proper criminal investigation.
If a investigation starts with a suspect and looks for evidence of a crime, then its a witch hunt.
If Strzok started with Trump and then investigated for evidence and a crime, that speaks for itself.
Boils down this this unanswered question: "What level of flawed evidence is acceptable, if the investigation subject is the correct one?"
As well as “You wrote about it! It’s now public! Who is Corn? Who is Simpson?” Jordan said.
If an obviously politically biased senior FBI director can start an investigation on someone looking for evidence and crimes (rather than the other way around) . . .
If that same obviously politically biased senior FBI director uses 'evidence' from a highly suspect source that contains highly suspect information . . .
If that same obviously politically biased senior FBI director uses this non-official intelligence information for this same subject driven investigation . . .
If that same obviously politically biased senior FBI director can write a memo exonerating the subject before the subject is even interviewed . . . .
There's something in this picture that's very wrong.
Something that's very wrong with the FBI that such an obviously politically biased agent would reach such a high position in the FBI.
Something that's very wrong with the FBI that such a flawed investigation made it as far as it did, and wasn't stopped on management review.
Something that's very wrong with the FBI that such a flawed investigator was allowed to continue to hold the high ranking position that he did, especially when that same agent had such a huge blackmail potential and was handling classified information.
FBI agents have befallen of this before.
