The FBI has been dirty, likely since its inception, but most people don’t have special places in their hearts to listen to the downfall of “terrorist” and “drug dealers.”
Now, there is easily digestible evidence of the entrapment tactics regularly used by the nation’s top law enforcement agency.
Despite evidence existing that should have led to the case against Michael Flynn being dropped FBI Agent Peter Strzok insisted it keep going in order to entrap Michael Flynn and take him out.
According to Fox News:
Internal FBI documents unsealed Thursday indicate that Peter Strzok — the now-disgraced anti-Trump former head of FBI counterintelligence — ordered the investigation of former national security adviser Michael Flynn to remain open even after it was slated to be closed due to a lack of so-called “derogatory” information.
The materials surfaced just a day after explosive FBI communications revealed that top bureau officials discussed their motivations for interviewing Flynn in the White House on January 24, 2017 — and openly questioned if their “goal” was “to get him to lie, so we can prosecute him or get him fired.”
Those handwritten notes — written by the FBI’s former head of counterintelligence Bill Priestap, Fox News is told — suggested that agents planned in the alternative to get Flynn “to admit to breaking the Logan Act” when he spoke to then-Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak during the presidential transition period. The Logan Act has never been used in a criminal prosecution and has a questionable constitutional status; it was enacted in 1799 in an era before telephones, and was intended to prevent individuals from falsely claiming to represent the United States government abroad.

It’s currently unknown why Strzok directed the FBI case manager to keep the Flynn investigation open. However, the timing of emails between Strzok and ex-FBI lawyer Lisa Page seem to suggest that they used the Logan Act to keep CROSSFIRE RAZOR alive; Strzok forwarded a 14-page research paper on the Logan Act the same day.
The Logan Act for reference has NEVER been used and it is argued has no modern-day relevance. It was enacted in 1799 with the idea of keeping Americans abroad from saying they represent the United States.
Law professor Johnathan Turley called the revelations “chilling.”
