IG Report Says Comey Defied Authority"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Well, somebody inside the Justice Department is getting impatient, folks. Somebody inside the Department of Justice getting very, very impatient waiting for the inspector general report. And so somebody who\u2019s getting very, very impatient decided to leak some of it right before this program began. You don\u2019t think that\u2019s coincidental, do you? Because if you do you, it isn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>Great to have you. Rush Limbaugh, once again at the EIB Network. Telephone number, 800-282-2882.<\/p>\n<p>Okay. The inspector general that conducted the 15-month investigation into the Hillary Clinton-FBI email investigation is named Horowitz, and the IG report has ostensibly been completed for three weeks. As is customary, the IG report is circulated so that people who are mentioned and named in it get a heads-up. From what I understand, this is standard operating procedure. Some people might think it\u2019s kind of weird, letting the guilty or the potential accused get a heads-up on what\u2019s coming. But, apparently, it\u2019s SOP.<\/p>\n<p>Well, people have grown impatient. What\u2019s the deal? <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2018\/06\/05\/trump-tweets-about-the-ig-report\/\">The one thing I pointed out yesterday<\/a> &#8212; I find this fascinating &#8212; the day after I point out that there hasn\u2019t been a single leak from this thing circulating in front of all kinds of eyeballs at the Department of Justice, and who knows wherever else, not one leak. And then the very next day, today, we have a leak to ABC News that ends up one of the lead items on the Drudge Report.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-275841 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-060618-DRUDGE-Comey.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-060618-DRUDGE-Comey.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-060618-DRUDGE-Comey-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/doj-watchdog-finds-comey-defied-authority-fbi-director\/story?id=55670834\">DOJ Watchdog Finds James Comey Defied Authority as FBI Director, Sources Say<\/a>.&#8221; Loretta Lynch is also mentioned in this leak as having been singled out for lackadaisical performance and defying authority and allowing her authority to be defied. Now, we don\u2019t know any more than that, essentially, but it\u2019s clear somebody\u2019s growing impatient with this.<\/p>\n<p>But the fact that there haven\u2019t been any leaks, the thing I mentioned yesterday, the fact there haven\u2019t been any leaks when everything else in this town is leaking and every other leak in this town is an anti-Trump leak or an anti-Trump attack, the fact that there have been no leaks from this thing told me &#8212; and I mentioned it yesterday &#8212; that it must be pretty bad for the people who are named in this thing. They wouldn\u2019t want it out there, and so it isn\u2019t. Except now it is.<\/p>\n<p>Now, this leak that Comey defied authority as FBI director, I don\u2019t want to let anybody down, but we all knew that. I guess it\u2019s a big deal to have it officially referenced and documented as part of an official investigation by the inspector general of the Department of Justice, but the moment Comey went out there and did that July 5th press conference where he, in the end, exonerated Crooked Hillary, where he listed every crime that she\u2019s committed in having the server, using the server, trafficking in classified information. And then at the end of it says no reasonable prosecutor would ever bring charges on any of these because we couldn\u2019t find any intent.<\/p>\n<p>Well, they made it up. There is no intent in the statutes that Crooked Hillary violated. And intent is not very often a defense anyway. It is on a couple of occasions, but on something like this there are people in jail for what Crooked Hillary did and for which James Comey exonerated her. But, look. I don\u2019t want to let anybody down; but we don\u2019t need the IG report to tell us that Comey overstepped his authority. The FBI director does not determine who gets prosecuted. The FBI director doesn\u2019t make that decision. That is the attorney general.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-243477\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/LynchClintonAG-in-AZ-TRUTH.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"585\" height=\"270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/LynchClintonAG-in-AZ-TRUTH.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/LynchClintonAG-in-AZ-TRUTH-300x138.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 585px) 100vw, 585px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But after she had met with Bill Clinton on the tarmac, everybody knew, well, she\u2019s out, even if she doesn\u2019t recuse herself, she\u2019s now tainted, which was probably Clinton\u2019s intention. Because Clinton was already on the ground at the airport in Phoenix when somebody told him that Loretta was taxiing in and he said, &#8220;Well, let\u2019s wait for her to get here. I want to bop over there and say hi.&#8221; And she allowed him onto her plane, where they had a conversation about grandkids, of which she has none.<\/p>\n<p>So at that moment she\u2019s tainted. She can\u2019t go out there and tell people she is or isn\u2019t gonna bring charges against Crazy Hillary or Crooked Hillary after being on the airplane with Crooked Hillary\u2019s husband. So Comey goes in there and assumes the role of attorney general and starts explaining how he\u2019s not gonna charge her, he\u2019s not gonna bring charges, he\u2019s not gonna recommend charge, because nobody in their right mind ever would.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I don\u2019t know if there are other references in this report to Comey having defied authority as FBI director. I hope so, because there are probably many other instances. One source leaking to ABC said that the draft report from the inspector general explicitly used the word &#8220;insubordinate&#8221; to describe Comey. Another source agreed with that characterization but could not confirm the use of the term.<\/p>\n<p>In the report, the inspector general Michael Horowitz also rebuked Loretta Lynch for her handling of the investigation into Crooked Hillary\u2019s personal email server. Now, Trump has been tweeting and asking, &#8220;What\u2019s taking so long with this report on Crooked Hillary and Slippery James Comey? Hope report\u2019s not being changed and made weaker.&#8221; And with these people involved, that is always a distinct possibility. This thing\u2019s lurking around up there, no leaks forthcoming whatsoever. The original guesstimate was it was gonna be released before the end of May. We\u2019re now up to June 6th, and it still has not been released.<\/p>\n<p>So somebody\u2019s getting antsy up there and decided to leak the thing out. ABC says there is no indication that the president has seen or will see a draft of the report before its release. Horowitz, however, could revise the draft report now that current and former officials mentioned in it have offered their responses. That\u2019s standard operating procedure. IG reports are then shown to people named, they have a chance to make their case, have the IG then change what he has written, and no doubt a lot of that has been going on.<\/p>\n<p>Now, in an interview back in April, the Clinton war room political operative George Stephanopoulos operating under the guise of a journalist at ABC News as chief anchor interviewed Comey, part of Comey\u2019s book tour, and he said, &#8220;Look, if Attorney General Lynch had ordered you not to send the letter, would you have sent it?&#8221; &#8220;No. I believe in the chain of command.&#8221; But he obviously doesn\u2019t, because he totally usurped the authority of the attorney general in deciding &#8212; not recommending &#8212; in deciding that Crooked Hillary would not be prosecuted.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-270648 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Screen-Shot-2018-04-11-at-1.38.31-PM-1024x443.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"277\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Screen-Shot-2018-04-11-at-1.38.31-PM-1024x443.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Screen-Shot-2018-04-11-at-1.38.31-PM-300x130.png 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Screen-Shot-2018-04-11-at-1.38.31-PM-768x332.png 768w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Screen-Shot-2018-04-11-at-1.38.31-PM-1080x467.png 1080w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Screen-Shot-2018-04-11-at-1.38.31-PM.png 1826w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So this is the beginning of what appears to be a leak salvo. We\u2019ll see if there are any more forthcoming. But people are gonna begin asking, &#8220;Where is the report anyway? Why is this taking so long? Why do the people named in it get so damn much time to make their case?&#8221; This investigation was 15 months long. And again, this IG report has nothing to do with the FBI investigation of the Trump campaign and whether or not there was a spy or an informant.<\/p>\n<p>The only overlap is Comey, who played a role in both stories. And there probably is gonna be overlap with McCabe. Now, McCabe\u2019s story is interesting right now. McCabe has a lawyer. And this lawyer\u2019s name is Michael Bromwich. And I know a little bit about Bromwich because he was nominated by a district judge, chosen by district judge with whom he had a very, very close relationship to be the court-appointed special master at Apple, after Apple lost an antitrust suit on price fixing regarding electronic books, which was a crock. Amazon was fixing prices, and they had been selling e-books long before Apple got in the business.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I don\u2019t want to relive the case. This guy was sent to Apple for a period of a year to basically spy on \u2019em and to make sure that they behaved according to the direction of the court in not engaging in price fixing. And when he got there, this Bromwich guy demanded to constantly meet with the CEO and the executive team, he demanded to see state secrets, trade secrets for Apple supposedly in his quest to keep them honest.<\/p>\n<p>Apple twice requested of the judge who appointed Bromwich to get him the hell out of there because he had gone way beyond his authority, and the judge told Apple to pound sand twice. The guy eventually left after having performed his duties, but he\u2019s a genuine pain in the rear. And he was paid an exorbitant amount of money to get an office and basically just harass them out there. And he\u2019s a swamp dweller. He\u2019s a classic example of a Washington, D.C., lawyer swamp dweller. He is McCabe\u2019s attorney.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-268762\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/APP-032318-Deep-State-McCabe.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/APP-032318-Deep-State-McCabe.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/APP-032318-Deep-State-McCabe-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You may have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtontimes.com\/news\/2018\/jun\/5\/andrew-mccabe-wants-immunity-testimony-hillary-cli\/\">heard that McCabe is asking for use immunity<\/a>. Congressional committees want to hear from McCabe on a whole bunch of things regarding the Trump and Russia collusion investigation. And McCabe is demanding use immunity, and his lawyer, Bromwich, is saying that this is a perfect example, a classic example of use immunity. &#8216;Cause if he doesn\u2019t get use immunity, he\u2019s gonna take the Fifth Amendment. So he\u2019d have to testify against himself. And then that\u2019s gonna put the onus back on Congress to force him to come up there, answer subpoenas and answer questions McCabe clearly doesn\u2019t want to answer.<\/p>\n<p>Now, Dawn, as a court dweller veteran, you know what use immunity is as opposed to other immunity. But let me explain what use immunity is \u2019cause it\u2019s a legal term that gets bandied about. What McCabe is asking is that none of what he says can be used against him after he says it. There is limited use immunity; there\u2019s full use immunity. He\u2019s asking for the full boat.<\/p>\n<p>So the practical result, if he is to be granted use immunity, is that he can go up and answer anything and tell anybody what they want to hear, and at the end of it, it\u2019s as if he has said nothing. They cannot prosecute him or chase him. Interestingly enough, this is the exact kind of immunity Oliver North was granted during the Iran-Contra hearings.<\/p>\n<p>Now, many of you may not remember what happened in those hearings. It was 1987. The Iran-Contra scandal was essentially the allegation that the Reagan administration had been working with the Contras in Nicaragua, who were the American-related freedom fighters opposing a Soviet beachhead in Nicaragua. The Sandinistas were the communists let by sunglass aficionado Daniel Ortega, who was a close buddy of the Democrat Party &#8212; and Peter, Paul and Mary who took him on his sunglass shopping tour on Fifth Avenue on a trip to New York.<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-227701\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Ollie-North.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"439\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Ollie-North.jpg 406w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Ollie-North-205x300.jpg 205w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Well, Oliver North was part of the Reagan administration, which was alleged to have found money from outside the Congress to funnel to the Contras to oppose the Sandinistas. Hence the name Iran-Contra. They were so desperate to get Ronald Reagan, the Democrats and the Iran-Contra committee. They were so eager, so eager to get Reagan that they granted North &#8220;use immunity&#8221; before finding out what he was gonna say &#8212; and he just steamrollered over them.<\/p>\n<p>The lead Democrat lawyer on the Iran-Contra committee was a guy named Arthur Liman. He has since passed away, but he was one of the most highly reputed Manhattan criminal defense attorneys, prosecutor, everything. The guy was a hero. They loved this guy. The media loved this guy. Everybody. And he was questioning, &#8220;Colonel Nort\u2019.&#8221; That\u2019s how he spoke. I\u2019ll never forget any of this. (impression) &#8220;Colonel Nort\u2019, some documents that survived your shredding process&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And North said, &#8220;What, I missed one? Are you telling me I didn\u2019t get \u2019em all?&#8221; And the place erupted like&#8230; They couldn\u2019t do anything to him \u2019cause he had use immunity, and North ran rings around them and made mincemeat out of them because they had failed &#8212; and I cannot believe that, because that\u2019s the first thing lawyers learn after they learn trick questions to trip up doctors. That\u2019s the first thing lawyers learn in law school: Trick questions in court to screw doctors around.<\/p>\n<p>After that&#8230; (interruption) Well, I know this \u2019cause my dad was a lawyer. The next thing they\u2019re told is about immunity. You never grant immunity to anybody that you don\u2019t know what they\u2019re gonna say. They did not. That\u2019s not gonna happen with McCabe. That mistake\u2019s not gonna be made twice. But McCabe is demanding it, this lawyer Bromwich &#8212; and if they don\u2019t get it, they\u2019re gonna plead the Fifth Amendment.<\/p>\n<p>Now, there\u2019s a related story running around here today involving McCabe and Lisa Page that indicates the Trump-Russia spy operation may have begun in December 2015, and I would be very wary of that. That just&#8230; Nobody knew in 2015 that Trump would win the nomination. Nobody knew who the nominee was gonna be. I think&#8230; If I may share my brief personal opinion on this, I think the big event of 2015 was Hillary Clinton revealing her private, illegal basement, Chappaqua, New York, email server.<\/p>\n<p>And when she revealed that she was using an illegal server outside the State Department network &#8212; and that she was sending classified data back and forth on it &#8212; and when that appeared to entrap Obama&#8230; Because Obama was sending her emails, of course, and everything the president does is classified automatically. So she\u2019s trafficking in it, and Obama lied later and said that he didn\u2019t even know about this until he read it in the media.<\/p>\n<p>But that\u2019s not true because he was sending her emails, and her address did not have the state.gov suffix on, which would have been for the official network. But I think what happened when she revealed this&#8230; Remember, these people, their future is all tied to the Democrat Party maintaining the White House, the establishment maintaining its power. When Hillary announced this, I think they melted down, at the FBI, McCabe and all these other people.<\/p>\n<p>I think they began to fear, &#8220;My God, she could actually lose &#8212; and before she loses, she could actually end up going to jail for this!&#8221; I think they began to circle the wagons to protect and exonerate Hillary Clinton not long after she announced this, which would happen to be 2015. The idea that they\u2019re recruiting spies in 2015 to spy on the Trump campaign? It\u2019s possible, but, man, that seems like a big stretch to me. But we\u2019ll see as it plays out.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-275345\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-060118-Rush-Cigar-Flag.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-060118-Rush-Cigar-Flag.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-060118-Rush-Cigar-Flag-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Now, you know&#8230; You know that I never come here intending to dispirit you. And you know that I do not come here and espouse and whine and moan with pessimism as the general tone of the program. Quite the opposite. But I would be remiss if I didn\u2019t observe something here. This leak of the IG report that says James Comey was insubordinate and that he was defying authority? Folks, I have to tell you: If that\u2019s all the IG report says about Comey, then it is a grand-slam, home-run win for Comey.<\/p>\n<p>You take a look at Comey\u2019s book tour. His book, the whole theme is the claim that he had to behave&#8230; He had to acknowledge a higher authority to the truth, to integrity, because his superiors &#8212; Loretta Lynch and Donald Trump &#8212; are a bunch of corrupt sleazebags. Somebody had to come in there! Somebody had to come in there and restore respectability, integrity, and authority. Comey could say, &#8220;Hell, yes! If I had to act insubordinate to restore honor and decency, then I would do it again.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Of course, the media will swoon and think they\u2019re looking at Obama Jr. and start applauding. Comey will say, &#8220;My country needed me to be defiant, my country needed me to overextend my authority, because look at what we\u2019re up against! We\u2019re up against corruption in the White House. We had corruption in the Department of Justice. And I, St. Comey, had to do whatever it took to save the day.&#8221; If that\u2019s all this report says about Comey, then I\u2019m just prepping you now that it\u2019s gonna be a big win-win for the guy.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t think that\u2019s the case, but it could be.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Vic in Indianapolis. You wanted to talk about the leak here from the IG report that Comey might have behaved in an insubordinate fashion.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, thanks, Rush, for taking my call. Rush, honestly, I believe that this report is like everything else that\u2019s been out there. It means a bunch of nothing, because what leak in the last two years since Donald Trump was elected has really come to pass? What leak has been true?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: True. This is the first leak from this report. So what do you think it is, then? What\u2019s the purpose?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-271700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/APP-042018-Comey-Politcal-Hack.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/APP-042018-Comey-Politcal-Hack.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/APP-042018-Comey-Politcal-Hack-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>CALLER: Well, honestly, Rush, I think that, you know, this is a continued deification of St. James the Comey. Because, you know, he started by, you know, sending Martha Stewart up the river, then putting her on a dog collar in home detention and stuff like that. You know, he\u2019s always been Mr. Pure. So, you know, his book tour is done. Somebody in the Department of Justice that leaked this out. So, you know, it could continue the deification of St. James.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, I get what you\u2019re saying. See, what he thinks is that the report is actually gonna contain some really bad stuff on Comey, so somebody\u2019s leaking this that\u2019s rather innocuous. &#8220;Okay, he superseded authority, acted&#8230;&#8221; It\u2019s kind of minor in the big scheme of things, because it actually contains much worse and people remember the first thing they hear, and so when they hear that Comey did they say, &#8220;Oh, yeah, heard that, nothing to see here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It could be. But if this is all this report has on Comey, I\u2019m just telling you it\u2019s a grand-slam home-run win for him. If the only thing this report has on Comey is that he usurped authority and behaved with power that he didn\u2019t have, believe me, he can turn that into, &#8220;Well, I had to! We had a corrupt FBI, corrupt DOJ and attorney general, had a corrupt Trump. I had to break the law. I had to go above and board to maintain the integrity.&#8221; That\u2019s what his book\u2019s all about.
