FBI Director Kash Patel on Friday evening released a statement after a female FBI agent was falsely accused of being one of the two “honeypots” from James Comey’s operation to take out Trump in 2016.
Earlier this week, Kash Patel launched an investigation into former Director James Comey’s secret “honeypot” operation involving 2 female undercover agents who targeted President Trump’s 2016 campaign, according to The Washington Times.
Last October it was revealed that according to an FBI whistleblower, former Director James Comey inserted two female agents inside the Trump campaign in 2016.
The Washington Times reported that the female agents were directed to act as “honeypots” and travel with Trump and his staff.
This was an “off-the-books” operation and was separate from Comey and Obama’s Crossfire Hurricane operation (launched in July 2016) that targeted Trump based on false Russian collusion lies.
One of the undercover agents involved in Comey’s operation was transferred to the CIA so she would not be a potential witness.
The other undercover agent was promoted to a high-ranking position at the FBI.
On Friday Kash Patel pushed back after a female FBI agent was falsely accused of being a honeypot.
“The American people will get an FBI that is transparent, accountable, and committed to justice. Just like when I exposed grotesque violations and fraud leading the House Intelligence Committee’s investigation into Crossfire Hurricane calling out corrupt actors; I will equally defend those attacked falsely, especially as your new FBI Director. A female agent was falsely referenced in the media this week as part of an alleged whistleblower disclosure- she was NOT a honeypot,” Kash Patel said.
“I have reviewed the matter, again, and she did the limited job assigned to her. These actions were also reviewed by Special Counsel John Durham and he found no evidence of any wrongdoing by her. This agent has dedicated her life to public service, and I will have her back for it. I will always be the first to push for accountability from within, my track record has established that, but we do no establish guilt by association in this FBI. Stay the course and abide by our high standards, and I will always have your back. Deviate in anyway, and you will not be a part of this FBI. She is here to stay,” Patel said.
