Media were more upset over Sarah Sanders ‘lie’ (saying there were countless FBI people) than their own two-plus years of false stories.
Via Daily Caller:
Reporting done previously by The Daily Caller confirmed White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ claim that some FBI agents were indeed unhappy with former FBI Director James Comey’s leadership.
The Caller reported in October 2016 that FBI agents lost confidence in Comey after seeing how the bureau handled the investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s emails. But since the release of the Mueller report, media outlets have pounced on Sanders for saying that FBI agents had issues with Comey.
USA Today reported Thursday the Mueller report notes that Sanders told reporters on May 10, 2017 that Comey had been terminated from his post because he had lost the confidence of President Donald Trump, the Department of Justice and members of both parties in Congress.
