Let’s assume Comey’s claim is partly true (although “Honest Comey” doesn’t sound right, maybe the IG made him tell part of the truth in this case). If these prosecutors knew that Obama and the top layers of DOJ were determined to let Clinton off, that might explain why they seemed “intimidated.” And yes, “high powered lawyers” seems like a flimsy excuse. Hillary might have other ways of demanding loyalty that they would be reluctant to mention.

It is a word of Hebrew origin which means someone who extremely prone to gossip. usually a Yentah is a female but could be a male if you get my drift.

Fair enough, but to me, the Comey claim is a clue that something is and was rotten in DOJ/FBI/State. They are not likely to reveal the truth unless enough people demand it. And millions still are not interested in anything that would challenge their faith in Obama, Hillary etc. I hope there is an eventual awakening.

If you can intimidate the FBI you get a pass on whatever crime was committed, is that how this works?

Ding, ding, ding.

"intimidated"

That's the worst spelling of "in cahoots" I have ever seen.

Intimidation is always a possibility when you consider that the deep state DOJ lawyers all thought Clinton was going to win anyway so why make waves.

"Some FBI witnesses told us, consistent with text message exchanges between [Peter] Strzok and [Lisa] Page, that the FBI was concerned that the line [Network Security Division] prosecutors were intimidated by the high-powered attorneys representing Clinton and her senior aides and, as a result, did not negotiate aggressively with them"

FBI - Secy Clinton, would you like for us to investigate if your personal email server that you used to conduct top secrete gov't communications was infiltrated by Putin or other Russian's who you say were "meddling" in our election process?

Clinton/Attorneys - No.

FBI - Are you sure you don't want us to investigate Russian interference involving your computers?

Clinton/Attorneys - No. Forget about it.

FBI - Even though you claim the Russians "interfered" with our election?

Clinton/Attorneys - Go away.

FBI - What about checking for Macedonian content farmers?

Clinton/Attorneys - Stop harassing us or we'll sue you personally, privately and every other which way to Sunday! Look over there! You should investigate Trump for something.

FBI - Ok, as you wish.

So to protect Obama, they float the story that Comey was insubbordinate. Then to protect Comey, they claim he was easily intimidated. Which lie are we supposed to believe?

Wonderful post. Let me add to your thinking maybe.It is simple raw communism. Take from the productive and give to the non productive. The reason this is done is to keep them from rioting and killing the elites. in other words , the elites take from us and give to the parasites in order to keep their life style. I figured this out in 1983 and it has become solidified in my thinking. God bless you and your family. great POST.

Were they "intimidated" only by Clinton lawyers, or also by FBI and DOJ "senior officials?"

What was the difference?

The only difference between pro-Clinton DOJ officials and Clinton's personal lawyers is that the DOJ people could be fired or criminally charged for taking the Clinton side. But they thought she would win.
