FBI Director revises stance, says none of Hillary Clinton’s emails were classified at the time
The Daily News Bin ^ | July 7, 2016 | Bill Palmer

The day after the Director of the FBI claimed that Hillary Clinton received classified emails on her personal email server before concluding that she violated no laws and would face no charges, a State Department spokesman contradicted him, stating that the emails in question had been improperly marked to begin with and therefore she did nothing wrong (something we reported last night). This morning, as the Director was being interrogated by House Republicans over his findings, one of the Democrats on the committee pointed out the discrepancy. This prompted him to revise his stance on the matter.

Even as the Republicans spent the day suggesting to FBI Director James Comey’s face that he either failed to properly look into Hillary Clinton’s use of email or outright rigged the matter in her favor, he confidently shot down their conspiracies one after another, likely causing them to regret having hauled him in to begin with. But it was a House Democrat who finally asked Comey about the new State Department assertion that the emails in question were improperly marked.

The FBI Director responded by revising and clarifying his assessment, acknowledging that of the three email in question (originally reported as two emails by the New York Times), there were errors their classification markings which had nothing to do with Hillary Clinton and therefore could not have been her fault. This came as he also made that clear Clinton voluntarily cooperated with every aspect of the inquiry, and that to the best of his knowledge, she was truthful throughout the matter.

And now suddenly it appears that the House Republicans have grossly overplayed what hadn’t been much of a hand to begin with. Rather than giving the Director a stage for repeating and amplifying his personal criticisms of Hillary Clinton, they instead challenged his integrity, effectively forcing him to defend her character and behavior while defending his own. MSNBC has more details on the classification non-issue.

I don't always look for factual news and information, but when I do, I look to the Daily News Bin (/s). Article is a bit old and needs some edits. Did not see this posted at FR. . . so here it is, in the interest of garnering facts about Hillary's lawless methods of self-enrichment and self-empowerment. Whatever Director Comey's stance on "the matter," methinks his sense of self-preservation has come into play.

If he keeps backpedaling like this then pretty soon we are going to hear about charges being filed against FBI agents for harassing the witch about a non-crime.

Comey is a lying piece of garbage. He cannot be so damn stupid not to know that we see him for what he is and who he is taking orders from. Maybe King Obama and the DOJ?

Trump for President.

Looks like Obama had Lynch remind Comey about those naughty photos they have of him.
