LOL ... bribes? Care to cite a page number?

Yes, BRIBES.

They took Alcohol, Games Tickets, Free Meals in exchange
for classified information.

Bribes!

Cite what you're referring to.

I have the report open and searchable. There's not a single reference to bribes.

Can you back up your claim or not?

EDIT ... here I'll help you.

Page xii

We identified numerous FBI employees, at all levels of the organization and with no official reason to be in contact with the media, who were nevertheless in frequent contact with reporters. Attached to this report as Attachments E and F are two link charts that reflect the volume of communications that we identified between FBI employees and media representatives in April/May and October 2016.

We have profound concerns about the volume and extent of unauthorized media contacts by FBI personnel that we have uncovered during our review. In addition, we identified instances where FBI employees improperly received benefits from reporters, including tickets to sporting events, golfing outings, drinks and meals, and admittance to nonpublic social events. We will separately report on those investigations as they are concluded, consistent with the Inspector General Act, other applicable federal statutes, and OIG policy.

Then read the part about dozens of FBI Agents leaking
to the Press, that had zero authority to do so, and
in return they took FREE things!

BRIBES!

According to the watchdog report, investigators had “profound concerns about the volume and extent of unauthorized media contacts by FBI personnel that we have uncovered during our review.” “[W]e identified instances where FBI employees received tickets to sporting events from journalists, went on golfing outings with media representatives, were treated to drinks and meals after work by reporters, and were the guests of journalists at nonpublic social events,” Inspector General Horowitz wrote.

The point is they said they found no DOCUMENTARY or TESTIMONIAL evidence.

That doesn't mean that there was none. Nobody can read one's mind or know what their true intentions are when they make decisions to ignore, bypass, or follow through on something.

Ya think they were looking for damning evidence and when they found some, they walked away and made sure it got buried ? I do.

Spin from the Democrats.....

There are numerous hearing upcoming, and Andrew McCabe
has been referred for criminal prosecution.

5 other's have been referred for investigation.

a reply to: queenofswords

What kind of evidence will they find then?

Are you really faulting them because they aren't telepathic?

Queen, come on.

It's not "spin" from anywhere ... I quoted from the report.

Enough vapid partisan arguments

a reply to: xuenchen

That's your belief. We all have them.

Let's address it another way:

Nothing that anyone, anywhere, anyhow proves will be sufficient to amend the beliefs of folks that Clinton is guilty and Trump is innocent.

That's a more fair representation of the position, isn't it?

a reply to: burntheships

Yep, they talked to the media.

Interesting that Breitbart was right on top of that, eh?

I wonder how many tickets they bought?

Fox News probably broke the bank, LOL.

The IG report states that this will be dealt with in a later report ... it has nothing to do with the matter at hand.

a reply to: Gryphon66

Of course when professionals bury evidence it never gets revealed.

That's the whole point.
😃

a reply to: Gryphon66

Your just trying to bury information with a flurry of
non relevant posts.

The FBI Director Wray is talking in a press conference
right now about the FBI employees that have been
referred for disciplinary investigation and then
following even legal action.

It's not just Breitbart and Fox News.

a reply to: burntheships

Non relevant posts? BS. The topic is Strzok. I'm posting directly from the IG report.

Just because the facts of the IG report don't match certain beliefs and desires of certain posters ...

Yeah, that level of chumminess with the media is counterproductive. I'm sure there will be discipline and retraining.

Changes nothing at all about the facts here.

You mean like with Gonzales, Cheney and Bush?

This is "talking through one's hat" and nothing more.

I know that the IG report was disappointing ... try to buck up.

The majority of the FBI is White, male, middle-aged, former military and registered Republicans.

That fact ALONE makes this whole thing a lot funnier.

Yeah, let's take a look at what Director Wray had to say today, eh?

I take this report very seriously, and we accept its findings and recommendations. It’s also important to note what the inspector general did not find. The report did not find any evidence of political bias or improper consideration actually impacting the investigation under review. But the report does identify errors of judgment, violations of or disregard for policy, and decisions that, at the very least, in hindsight, were not the best choices.

We’ve already started taking the necessary steps to address those issues.

Yes, Trump fans, sorry ... no bias or improper consideration.

FBI Director Christopher Wray's Statement on Release of Inspector General's Report

a reply to: GuidedKill

2 things.

The first is that they quite clearly didn't stop trump. Probably and secondly, because they're low level FBI agents.

I'm sure, somewhere out there there is a small group, or even quite a large group who said the same thing about Hillary.

Funny thing about that though, is that it worked and people like you don't think it's a problem...

There's a severe lack of consistency.

So ... the actual text of Director Wray's says NOTHING about legal action.

Some have "conveniently" forgotten referrences from the FBI to the "Clinton Crime Family" during the investigation ...
