Tom Fitton: Comey Has ‘Repeatedly and Improperly Protected Clinton and Her Top People ...'
Breitbart.com ^ | 4 May 2017 | John Hayward

Posted on 05/04/2017 10:00:17 AM PDT by Rockitz

Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton discussed FBI Director James Comey’s testimony to Congress with SiriusXM host Alex Marlow on Thursday’s Breitbart News Daily.

Hillary Clinton has blamed Comey for her 2016 election loss, but Marlow argued that if Comey had concealed the FBI’s discovery that Clinton was handling classified material irresponsibly – in the most spectacular instance, allowing it to be forwarded to disgraced former congressman Anthony Weiner – it would have been “the end of the FBI as we know it.”

“You put your finger on it – the end of the FBI as we know it,” Fitton agreed. “Comey is very interested in protecting his own reputation and why he should have done X or why he should have done Y.”

“In the final analysis, what happened was that Comey has repeatedly and improperly protected Hillary Clinton and her top people from the consequences of their criminal behavior by coloring the law, misstating the law, and focusing on everything but the elephant in the living room: why didn’t he prosecute her? Why didn’t he recommend a prosecution? Why was immunity granted to all of these individuals? Why is it he said that he needed to prove intent, when in fact all they really needed was gross negligence, which was proven beyond the shadow of a reasonable doubt, and he probably had the intent there anyway?” he asked.

“Looking at the testimony generally yesterday, Alex, I just was reassured that Judicial Watch and all the critics of the way the Justice Department and the FBI handled this during the Obama administration are right, that the investigation into Hillary Clinton needs to be opened. ..."

The FBI learned it’s lesson in the ABSCAM case in the early 1980’s. They won’t ever again take on top-levels of the D.C. power structure. In the name of preserving “the FBI as we know it”.

Nothing will be done! This is the “if I talk about it, it is the same thing as doing something” club.

That's why Comey pretends to be investigating the allegations about collusion with Russia. He knows that there is nothing there but as long as he maintains the charade, it would make Trump look like he was obstructing justice if he tried to fire Comey.

Of course if Comey were an honorable man he would resign.

Absolutely. Comey is pure scum. I am sick of his bald face superior attitude where he expects us to swallow his BS with a smile and a thank you.

But he will turn on Trump in a New York minute, just like he did with Bush.(which endeared him to Obama)

As I recall it was Trump, himself, who declared after the election he had no interest in persecuting Hillary. So, IMHO, he made Bush’s mistake before he was even inaugurated. Comey didn’t need an email to know that he could leave Hillary untouched. According to what I learned in the Army this is “undue command influence” but then I am just a peon freeper. What do I know?

If you read the article one thing becomes clear.

It was never Comey’s place to be the arbiter of Hillary Clinton's prosecution and he only did so because the Lynch Justice Department had proven itself to corrupt to allow Loretta Lynch to make the call and to cover up and block prosecution of Clinton.

The case should be submitted to the new Justice Department and a Grand Jury empaneled.

It will be hard to get everything because the massive stone wall and cover up to obstruct justice has allowed the trail to grow cold and many documents to be destroyed or be (quasi) legally erased due to civil retention laws.

But what they already have is more than enough to put Hillary and about 10 members of Hillary's inner circle behind bars.

At this point if he did reopen it would be considered political and not criminal prosecution. I would love to see her in prison but the way it would look is whats stopping anything from happening.

Comey\Clintons all the way back to WhiteWater.

He was let Sandy Berger off with a wrist slap for stuffing his socks with classified documents at the same time shielding the clintons from being implicated.

Comey is STILL head of the FBI and EVERYONE from Clinton on down walk free! Think of that. Our National Security files went from Clinton, to who knows how many, ending up found in pervert Anthony Weiners laptop. You can’t make this up. This government is a joke.

Comey, not comedy...

There’s nothing humorous about this guy.
