[quote:Anonymous Coward 57136228:MV80MTEyNTIxXzk4MjJBNjMw] FBI agents are horrified that President Donald Trump promoted a baseless conspiracy theory on Twitter suggesting the Clinton family was involved in the death of the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. The Justice Department announced that Epstein died by "apparent suicide" and there is no evidence that the conspiracy theory Trump retweeted has any merit. "The Epstein case was hypercharged from the get-go," one current FBI agent said. "The last thing investigators need is the president of the United States fanning the flames with these bulls--- theories that have no basis in reality." Another agent said that Trump's actions make the FBI's job harder as it combats homegrown extremism, particularly after its latest finding that conspiracy theories pose a new domestic-terrorism threat. "It's not hyperbole to say that when the president makes up these stories — or promotes stories made up by others — he's putting innocent lives at risk," said one former senior Justice Department official. https://www.businessinsider.com/fbi-agents-reaction-trump-conspiracy-theory-jeffrey-epstein-death-2019-8 [/quote]
