The FBI is in a shambles, but the DOJ is a complete train wreck
A 63-page report released last month found "numerous issues" with the
FBI's use of confidential sources during a period that included the
2016 election. That report revealed that the FBI lacked appropriate
procedures to vet and maintain oversight of sources like the ones used
against the Trump campaign. This created a security risk for the United
States. Yet no prosecutions have been announced.
Last August, an even more serious finding was released when the IG
determined that the FBI director himself [James Comey] had violated FBI policy and the
terms of his own employment agreement in disseminating classified
information for release to the media. Though the DOJ could have
prosecuted based on the report's findings, it declined to do so.
A May 2019 IG report implicated the FBI deputy assistant director for
unauthorized contacts with the media, illegally disclosing sealed court
documents and other sensitive information to the media, and accepting
gifts from the media. The DOJ declined to prosecute. But why? The IG
recommended prosecution.
The IG's June 2018 probe into the Hillary Clinton email investigation
implicated the FBI's head of counterintelligence, Peter Strzok, of
repeatedly articulating a strong political bias even as he headed up the
investigation of Clinton's exposure of classified information. The
500-page report, which reviewed 1.2 million documents and included
interviews with more than 100 witnesses, documented numerous
questionable decisions that benefited Clinton or damaged Trump, though
the IG acknowledged the parties denied their political bias impacted
their decisions.
Finally, an April 2018 report implicated FBI Assistant Director
Andrew McCabe of inappropriately authorizing the disclosure of sensitive
information to a reporter and repeatedly lying to investigators about
it. The report found McCabe lied four times, three under oath, and that
it was done "in a manner designed to advance his personal interests at
the expense of Department leadership." Though McCabe was fired, he
wasn't prosecuted.
The story is here.

England's Brexit party has gone off the rails just like Trump
It's like the two "movements", in reality just evanescent phenomena, upon discovering their political power went straight for the aisle where the stupid pills are kept and bought every last bottle.

There's strife in Iran
200,000 protesting fuel tax increases of 50% designed to pay for subsidies for 18 million poor. At least 143 killed. Perhaps 4,000 arrested.
731 banks, 140 government offices, 70 gas stations set ablaze.
50 internal security forces' bases attacked.
Maybe the rag-headed heathen bastards should stop funding nukes, rockets and terrorism instead.

Fox News knucklehead: Colombian government proposals "would likely exasperate inequalities"
The government’s proposal to slash the minimum wage, salaries, and pension funds would likely exasperate these inequalities and was also a driving force behind the uprising.
More here about the recent massive anti-government protests.
Another knucklehead here just very recently had Colombia on the top ten list of best places to retire in the world.
