“Looking into it... the process continues... I take my responsibility very seriously...No contact with the AG...blah blah blah”

If no contact with DOJ why was someone there Saturday then?

“If I indict her I wind up in Ft Marcy Park.”

“Or die in a freak weight lifting accident.”

Or my plane will mysteriously crash with no survivors.

Or I will disappear while jogging.

Or I will be discovered dead at an exclusive vacation spot and my death will be attributed to a heart attack due to my high pressure job.

No autopsy will be performed prior to my cremation. Or....

Always the optimist, I'll offer the suggestion that coming forward to recommend indictment before those options are used could be his way of neutralizing them. Of course it's about 40 minutes to wait. So if he has his heart attack within the next 40 minutes, then, well, we know what he was going to do.

Of course, we could all stop speculating and just wait 40 minutes. But what's the fun in that?!

-- This is all about reassuring the public that the FBI is not politicized. --

Very good speculation. He may also want to put the kibosh on the "FBI recommend (or not) indictment" canard that the press runs with.

He can announce that gathering of evidence is complete, and that the FBI is now ready to analyze the evidence against the probable cause standard. It will either not find that, or if it does, it will forward the file to the DOJ. The FBI has no part in recommending whether or how to proceed after the FBI finds probable cause a crime has been committed - and reinforce that probable cause is not a finding of guilt, a subject is presumed innocent until convicted in a court.

I don't believe Comey would be announcing an indictment, that's not his decision. He'll probably announce the end of the investigation. I doubt he'll even give an opinion on the evidence.

We will probably never see the evidence, which shows you just how complete and thorough the cover-up has been.

Unlike the Grand Jury decision in Ferguson, the left will not demand to see the evidence in this case. But they will boldly declare that Hillary has been completely vindicated by the evidence.

Integrity is becoming rare in America, and even rarer in government.

Comey: “I called this news conference today to announce my resignation.”

ANY government employee at that level can be fired by the President.

Correct...

Do you really think Obama will ask for Comey to resign if he moves forward with evidence to indict ?

“...no way to extract himself...communication between the two of them, via her server...”

This is my take as well and has been all along.

RICO for sure - but Lynch won’t prosecute even if the indictment is recommended.

I hope comey realizes that by giving her a pass she might end up being his master... Imagine working for the she devil for 4 yrs if she wins ...hell on earth!! He can put a stake through the heart of the beast and relieve all Americans from her poison! But I doubt he’ll have the marbles to convict...I still remember vividly how we thought no way would HOMO Roberts clear Ovomitcare!! I’ve been so disappointed for so many years that I would not put any money on the table that she would be convict it. By Obama flying her on air force 1 one is a clear indication the beast of hell skated!! In your freaking face America! Take that!!!I hate them with a purple passion!

A quick search of NYT, WaPo & cnn.pravda.us I found no mention of upcoming Comey statement—but I could have missed it.

I find it curious. Not attaching significance, just curious.

No, but I can expect a President Trump to do it if he doesn’t act on this Hillary treason.

I suspect his statement will be an attempt to tamp down the rumors we all have been seeing.


Agree. That way he neutralizes the press, and campaign surrogate rhetoric

I think he will be announcing his resignation.

Which will solidify what we already know. The entire government is as corrupt as the mafia.

One thing for sure that will come out of all of this is Americans will lose faith in the FBI and the criminals will commit more crimes without facing penalties. The ramification is HUGE!!! I hope the FBI understands this!! It will not only reflect bad on the FBI but in America as a whole. Other countries will take vantage and infiltrate more than what it has been already exposed by the kkklintons in our government facilities! This is a catastrophe if they let her skate! God help this nation!
