I think that the only reason that the FBI came for their “interview” (it’s not really an interview but the word helps journalists to tell the story).....was just to grin across the table....sip some coffee and exchange pleasant things, then leave.
You can go and do historical analysis over this in twenty years....to find that nothing exists in the folder except the agents who went and their time-card. The rest will be non-existent.
There was somewhere in the region of $4.5 million spent on FBI hours (if the 150 agent story is correct)...from beginning to end. In the end, what? Nothing.
Can you name any individual over the past forty years who held SCI-related material in their house and the discovery was made, and they didn’t face some significant judge activity? Just one single case?
At a minimum....each member of her staff that copied and pasted....needs to permanently lose their security clearance. The people who managed the gimmick of creation for the server? They need to be permanently barred from gov’t employment. Hillary? Loss of the clearance and some type of fine as a minimum, with some type of jail-deal.
Those the threatened to resign can do it on the Thu/Fri BEFORE the election. For effect. Comey didn’t want to affect the process as I see it. 2 can play this game.
You’re probably right. Comey and Hillary probably discussed grandchildren and Bill’s golf in Arizona.
