The FBI has some serious explaining to do! And no, I’m not talking about their botched investigation into Hillary’s emails and servers. I’m talking about rogue employees running off to marry ISIS terrorists!

An FBI translator with a top-secret security clearance traveled to Syria in 2014 and married a key ISIS operative she had been assigned to investigate, CNN has learned.
The rogue employee, Daniela Greene, lied to the FBI about where she was going and warned her new husband he was under investigation, according to federal court records.

I kid you not. The FBI had a linguist in their employ with a Top Secret security clearance who jetted off to marry one of the terrorists the FBI was investigating!!

What? Is that a joke? Or the new season of #Homeland ?

Sadly this is all too real.

Daniela Greene (Dani), born in Germany, worked for the FBI as a translator with a Top Secret security clearance. And then Denis Cuspert entered the picture. He’s a wanna be rapper from the United States who went to Germany to expand his music career. But that’s not all, after a serious of unfortunate events, he got religion. Islam to be exact.

That’s when Dani entered the picture.

Cuspert, who once opened for rap legend DMX, filmed an ISIS propaganda video that featured him holding a severed human head.

Greene was investigating Cuspert as a part of her work as a German translator for the FBI and apparently used that information to get in touch with him via Skype.

In June 2014, Greene — still married to an American at the time — told the FBI she was going to visit her parents in Germany, but she actually traveled to Istanbul and then onto Syria to marry Cuspert.

While Greene was in Syria, Cuspert featured in an ISIS propaganda video in “a field covered with dead bodies.”

Greene avoided harsher charges through “significant, long-running, and substantial” cooperation with authorities.

Cuspert was believed to have been killed in an October 2015 airstrike in Raqqa, but the U.S. government rescinded that claim in August 2016.

And then she soon realized how stupid she was. In other words, buyers remorse.

"Within weeks of marrying Cuspert, Greene, 38, seemed to realize she had made a terrible mistake."

I know… RIGHT??!! The court case is a fascinating and disturbing read. What we don’t see from the case is the FBI’s explanation of how they let this happen!!

1. She used Skype to communicate with this terrorist.
2. She had other email and phone traffic with him.
3. She lied about her travel plans and nothing was flagged.

Any dealings with a potential terrorist should have been monitored 24/7 but it’s highly evident that they weren’t. Thus, UNEXPECTEDLY! Her idiotic romance with a terrorist slipped through the cracks. What is disturbing is that this story actually made the news for a few days back in 2015. Supposedly he was nabbed in a ‘honey trap’ by Dani and the FBI.

As we now know, the actual facts are completely different.

To be blunt. Where the hell was the FBI during all of this? What else did she share with him? What information did she take with her and hand over to ISIS? Secretary of State John Kerry knew what was going on in 2015 and made this statement:

“I hereby determine that the individual known as Denis Cuspert, also known as Denis Mamadou Cuspert, also known as Abou Mamadou, also known as Abu Talha the German…committed, or poses a significant risk of committing, acts of terrorism that threaten the security of U.S. nationals or the national security, foreign policy, or economy of the United States.”

That statement was a full year AFTER Dani Green had been cooperating with the FBI and DOJ. A YEAR!

Daniela Greene was given two years for treason. She still has her citizenship. None of this is right.

Once upon a time treason was handled much differently. The consequences were severe. This case highlights the damage done to our national security, law enforcement, and to this country as a whole.

The FBI and the Obama Administration have a great deal to answer for.
