FBI Special Agent Who Investigated Trump-Russia Collusion to Plead Guilty to Conspiring with Russian Oligarch

FBI Special Agent Charles McGonigal is expected to plead guilty next week to conspiring with a Russian oligarch.

Earlier this year former Special Agent in charge of counter-intelligence in the New York field office, Charles McGonigal, was arrested for conspiring with Oleg Deripaska, a sanctioned Russian Oligarch.

Charles McGonigal was hit with a five-count indictment and charged with "violating and conspiring to violate the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA") and with conspiring to commit money laundering and money laundering."

Mr. McGonigal retired in 2018, according to the DOJ's press release.

One of the highest ranking FBI officials ever to be charged and he was a big part of Crossfire Hurricane?  Did nobody tell the DOJ that they aren't supposed to do that?

Of course.  If the DOJ/FBI does the wrong thing, it's because they're part of the deep state or acting as an arm of the Left.  If they do the RIGHT thing, they're only doing for some ulterior motive.

Are you trying to say the DOJ and the FBI operate without political influence?

Not at all.  The FBI, like every department/business, is made up of humans.  Humans have bias, they're flawed, have bad motivations, etc.

Does anyone think he acted alone?  Why else offer this turd a soft plea deal on some light charges? He is taking one for the team.
