- 3. The first limitation was that we had 90 days verify the validity of the complaint. And we could not use intrusive methods to achieve that verification. In other words, no search warrants, no wiretaps, no undercover operations. We could conduct interviews and subpoena records.
- 4. There were some circumstances where we could extend the 90-day limitation, usually because the return on subpoenas could take more than 90 days. But we had to have a good reason, and it had to be approved by DOJ.
- 5. The FBI knew early on that this Trump prosecution was politically-driven. But because Obama had put in place corrupt persons in charge, it was allowed to go forward. That in itself should be the reason to quash this whole farce and fire everyone who has perpetuated it.
- 6. The end. Have a great weekend everyone!
- 7. I have to make a minor correction. For the FBI the governing directive was the Manual of Investigative Procedures, now the DIOG, which was written to comply with the Attorney General Guidelines. Authority to extend the 90 day limit was through FBIHQ.
