FBI Director James B. Comey said in a memo to the bureau's employees that the decision not to charge Hillary Clinton for her use of a private email server while secretary of state was "not a cliff-hanger" and, "despite all the chest beating by people no longer in government, there really wasn't a prosecutable case."
The director's assessment was notable for its bluntness, though its assertions were not new.
[Snip]
He said he had "no patience for suggestions that we conducted ourselves as anything but what we are - honest, competent, and independent.
"Those suggesting that we are 'political' or part of some 'fix' either don't know us, or they are full of baloney (and maybe some of both)," he wrote.

Clinton tonight claimed I communicated about classified material on a wholly separate system. I took it very seriously.
What was that e-mail address Clinton?

Prosecuted a man who hacked her email and saw yoga emails and wedding plans. I don’t think so.
This FBI is Un-American.

Every American patriot’s liberty is being held hostage to this cabal which has seemingly infested every branch of government, media, educational institutions, and Hollywood.
Mr. Trump has successfully ripped the veil of their global schemes for all patriots to see. Yes, he is correct, it is ALL RIGGED.
When have tyrants ever willingly given up power? The big question is: Should they indeed steal the election, what would patriots actually be willing to do to purge these global traitors from our midst in order to restore our once great country? Much upon which to contemplate!

James Comey is full of gutter hogwash. He is just another Obama, Lynch, Clinton lackey low life, traitor & turncoast againt the USA, and USA Justice. He has destroyed himself....but, much worse, he has totally destroyed the once adored FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation. I say shame on every FBI agent that took part in this rigged gambit. When Trump becomes POTUS, he should fire Comey on his first day in office!!!

Maybe it was not a cliff hanger because the FBI decided beforehand that there really was not to be a prosecutable case.
Perhaps that is so because we are already a banana republic.
