He did no such thing.
Had he performed is duty in July, she would have been indicted for (and by now, convicted of) a felony which makes her ineligible to ever hold public office again. Instead, Comey granted blanket immunity to essentially all of her minions, flunkies and stooges, so that there can be no pressure exerted against them. [Although Huma Abedin's lies about her handling of classified materials probably invalidates any prior deal she'd made.]
In addition to the immunity deals, let's count the other ways in which this investigation benefitted Hillary, and could only have been conducted by a dirty cop with full knowledge that what he was doing was improper, and in some cases illegal:
These offenses alone are enough for his removal. There are of course, so many others. Comey was the man who directed the investigation of, and recommended the punishment for, Sandy Berger who was sent into the US National Archives to remove and destroy evidence of the Clintons' negligent complicity in the 9/11 attacks. Comey was the point man in guaranteeing that the HSBC money laundering case produced a wrist slap and came nowhere near the Clintons. Comey allowed the DOJ case investigating the Clinton Foundation to be operated out of the Eastern District of New York -- Loretta Lynch's power base -- instead of the Southern District in Manhattan where it belonged. His deputy, the ubiquitous Mr. McCabe, reprimanded agents when they attempted to get prosecutors in more pertinent jurisdictions to form Grand Juries when those requests were denied in Brooklyn.
The claim that Comey's "reopening" of Hillary's email case in late October was the coup de grace that sank her candidacy is also a preposterous fiction. Comey had received word that the NYPD Special Investigations Task Force had found evidence of additional State Department emails on the laptop owned by Anthony Weiner and Huma Abedin. He came in to quash that investigation before NYPD revealed anything the Clinton Crime Family couldn't control. And note, that in the critical 72-hour period before the election, Comey made a public announcement that "there is still nothing to see here, Hillary has been cleared again." That didn't hurt her campaign: it reminded people that the FBI had essentially cleared her name, and cast doubt on Comey's self-serving all-but-intent announcement in July.
James "Jimmy The Weasel" Comey is a dirty cop. There needs to be a special prosecutor -- to investigate him, McCabe, and other senior officials at the FBI who allowed this obvious travesty to continue for so long.
Great post!
From what I can see, that will happen.
Trump has only had his hands on the actual reins of power for a couple of months and has accomplished much. Still a few more high ranking dead enders to be removed. My guess is that the actual prosecutions will start low and work their way up. The machinery is being put in place. It's going to be a multi-year process to get the wheels of justice restarted and finely grinding again.
You are absolutely correct. He saved her from likely indictment (eventually, and under duress) and unlikely prison.
That has been his real job since he started cronying for the Clintons twenty-odd years ago. He is a shyster lawyer unfit to breathe the same air with an honest rank-and-file agent.
