The road not taken: Another FBI failure involving the Clintons surfaces
The Hill ^ | 08/22/19 | John Solomon

Posted on 08/22/2019 6:46:15 PM PDT by yesthatjallen

August in Washington can be the political equivalent of an elephant graveyard: One good rain can wash away the dirt and expose the bones of scandals past.

And this August did not disappoint. Thanks to the relentless investigative work of Senate Finance Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Chairman Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), we are learning that the Hillary Clinton email case may not really be settled.

A staff memo updating the two senators’ long-running probe discloses that the FBI — the version run in 2016 by the now-disgraced and fired James Comey, Andrew McCabe and Peter Strzok — failed to pursue access to “highly classified” evidence that could have resolved important questions.

The failure to look at the evidence back in 2016 occurred even though the agents believed access to the sensitive evidence was “necessary” to complete the investigation into Clinton’s improper transmission of classified emails — some top secret — on her unsecure private email server, the memos show.

To make matters worse, the Trump Department of Justice (DOJ) has known about that decision since at least 2018, thanks to the work of the DOJ’s internal watchdog, Inspector General (IG) Michael Horowitz, who provided DOJ leaders and Congress with a classified appendix explaining what happened.

As Reagan once said to Jimmy Carter: “Now there you go again.”

Waiting .... waiting. Sean Hannity tells me it's all going to break open next week ... well, maybe the week after.
No, now it will be this fall ... oh, wait a moment, it will be 2020 in order to max it out in the election year. It's all BS.

I remain optimistic. I believe accountability will precede DJT’s largest landslide win since the peanut farmers defeat.

The FBI worked for the Russians, the Clinton Foundation,
several mobs, and worked to murder the ELECTED PRESIDENT.

The only reason any justice occurs is the PEOPLE,
and the US military have had it with the corruption,
the pedophilia, the trafficking, and the jailing
of innocent Americans to protect criminals, including
Mueller and Comey.

The FBI has now been permenantely politically compromised. All compliments of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton et al.

Shut it down.

the version run in 2016 by the now-disgraced and fired James Comey
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The version being run by Christopher Wray isn’t any different.

the first ever coup de’tat attempt on the American presidency
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The coup happened on Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009

An ineligible usurper was put in the Oval office in direct violation of the Constitution by BOTH parties.
