FBI Lied To Congress About Fake ‘Defensive’ Briefing Of Trump Campaign In 2016

A 2017 letter from the FBI, responding to a senator’s inquiry about the nature of the agency’s counterintelligence briefings with the Trump campaign, was contradicted on Wednesday by the testimony of Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz. This latest revelation of FBI lies exposes more undue spying and abuse of power at the highest levels of the intelligence agency.

On September 20, 2017, Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa sent a letter to the FBI Director Christopher Wray, asking about whether or not the FBI ever provided the Trump campaign with a defensive briefing regarding Russian interference in 2016.

“I write to inquire about whether the FBI ever provided the Trump campaign with a defensive briefing or other warning regarding attempts to infiltrate the campaign by people connected with, or compromised by, Russian intelligence,” Grassley wrote.

On October 26, 2017, the FBI responded saying they did provide a counterintelligence defense briefing to then candidate Donald Trump and other campaign officials.

This is just another example of the "shadow government" led by Obama / Clinton and Soros.

AG sessions referred the case to the IG for a review and not to FBI or special counsel. IG said FBI really screwed up and referred the case to the FBI for review. Let that sink in. Meanwhile democrats won back congress campaigning on impeachment and Russia. FBI says they are having meetings and moving forward because they are awesome

Trump should have secret agents-crawling up every Democrat out there. He should stack the FISA court so deep they’re on overtime for months. Soros should have been taken out with the CIA flying ginsu by now. Cut off his foreign influence. Literally.
Let the MASS Democrat criminal unmasking begin. Enough B.S. from these platformless traitors.

...and they’ll get away with it until patriots with 20/20 aim take them out. Clearly they have escaped the rule of law. There in lies the reason for the second, to stop Democrat tyranny.

Comey learned his criminal corruptness from a Pro. Mueller was his nemesis. They both have been covering up for the Democrats and Clintons for years and years. That is why they are so rich.

Editing emails to make them read the exact opposite of what they originally said was an error? Then using that email to get a warrant is fraud. But those silly incompetent fbi agents just made a mistake, all of their 17 documented mistakes happened to someone named Trump, not one mistake happened to HRC. Statistically impossible. But no bias because no one admitted to it. Hopefully the criminal investigation will yield better results.
The IG did prove that comey was a horrible leader/manager.
