16. Don't know, but, the MO sounds familiar. Methinks this ODmafia at the FBI has grown since Hanssen.

Key to remember is that Hanssen was also described as obsessive in targeting Bill Clinton for criminal probes that were utter nonsense, but he would not stop. Then he was exposed spending lots of time with prostitutes and betraying national secrets to his Russian handlers. CIA had two of their carefully groomed Russian assets murdered and some 'disappeared' because Hanssen exposed them. I think this is why some career professionals at CIA have a complete distrust of FBI.

I have heard that Putin has cultivated hierarchy in Russian Orthodox Church with deliberation - remember before Olympics when every aspect of Russia 'society' had open season on gays? Bands of white nationalists control the streets there and are completely loyal to Putin. I just don't see it merely as coincidence that these particular factions in this country and in Russia are acting similarly at this point.
