But frankly a lot of the organisations within the beltway need a serious restructuring due to their overly and overtly partisan nature.OFC it was, the man is a Bush administration appointee to the DOJ whose rep came from being -seen- to stand up -to- the Bush administration, but ironically, the wikidumps related to that showed an entirely different picture, that the rep he had was a convenient fiction for the administration. He was the dojs boy in an investigation regarding a pardon granted by Bill Clinton (and it wouldn;t surprise you to find that the current election cycle contains many of the same players as were involved in that, I'm sure), who then translated that bit of partisan fun into a promotion within the ranks. He did the usual revolving door thing that politicians do and went on to work with Lockheed Martin for a time, and then an investment management firm called Bridgewater. He was briefly considered for a seat on SCOTUS. That unearned rep described before did help to convince Obama to give him the FBI directorship... and there he's been, still doing what he's always done, until now.
He's probably cost himself his job, with this, no matter who makes it into the oval office. The Clinton camp won't forget it, and the Trump faction of his underlings are fuming that he hasn't hauled Hillary in..and..IDK, executed her or something. He'd need dem support to weather the pressure from his subordinates..and that's obviously not going to materialize now. He will very lkely be under investigation himself in the near future...and it;s a pretty safe bet to call him the out-going director of the fbi.
It's like an episode of fucking Springer.
