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.
Round and round we go.....
So now the various agencies can’t even keep their stories straight.
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.
The FBI has been compromised!
Proceed at your own risk!
THIS GUY KEEPS DIGGING.
Another cover-up balloon is launched.
Hillary’s official eMail server where she received all of her eMail, and of course none of it was classified.
You have to be pretty damned dumb to think they public is dumb enough to buy this tripe.
Trump for President.
The Press are Hillary’s slaves, she owns their very souls - and they like it.
WHY does the FBI get funded?
Well, Mr. Comey—Were you lying then, or are you lying now?

Looks like Obama had Lynch remind Comey about those naughty photos they have of him.
Sounds like bill Clinton had another "meeting" with the attorney general.
