FBI Director James Comey refused to appear before the House Oversight Committee on Monday despite receiving an invitation to testify about the bureau's reluctance to disclose thousands of pages of evidence compiled in its year-long investigation of Hillary Clinton's private email use.
Rep. Elijah Cummings, the committee's top Democrat, said Comey had declined to appear at the hearing because he had "already bent over backwards" to explain the FBI's decision-making in the Clinton email case.
But Rep. Jason Chaffetz, chairman of the Oversight Committee, disputed the suggestion that he had even invited Comey, noting he had discussed specific points of concern in a personal phone call with the FBI director but had not issued a subpoena for Comey's presence at the hearing.

Specifically in regards to Comey?
IOW, unbelieveable as it is, the "science" is settled....
The republican chairman claimed that he did not even invite Comey. So why this remark?
‘Rep. Elijah Cummings, the committee’s top Democrat, said Comey had declined to appear at the hearing because he had “already bent over backwards” to explain the FBI’s decision-making in the Clinton email case.’
1. She cited her 2012 concussion as the reason that she cannot remember details of briefings during her transition out of office.
2. She said she never even thought whether emails she exchanged on a future U.S. drone attack should be classified.
3. She said she thought the C before a paragraph indicated alphabetical order. The C actually stands for confidential/classified.
4. She said no one ever raised concerns to her about her use of a private email server.
5. She said she could not recall any training on how to handle classified information.
Whats more, Clinton aides told the FBI that the Secretary of State frequently replaced her Blackberry phone and the whereabouts of her old device would become unknown. The FBI report suggests there were at least 13 different devices used.
=============================================
The Clintons and their factotums turned the State Dept into a get-rich-quick racketeering enterprise. No less a personage than Ralph Nader had this to say:
RALPH NADER: Its Hillary's email content, not the classification or non- classification, and, the lethal quadrangle of collusion and buck-raking... <><> Hillary in the State Dept, <><>the Clinton Foundation, <><> Bill Clinton pocketing $10,000 a minute per speech, and, <><> corporate mining magnets and other far-flung corporations wanting (and getting) favors.
===========================================
And do not forget our tax dollars facilitated many of the Clinton deals.
Wall Street analyst, Charles Ortel, told Judge Jeannine that Clinton Foundation books report intake of some 2 billion dollars.....but via Ortel's prodigious research, Ortel asserts the Foundation raised a staggering 100 billion dollars.
Much of that money is secretly stashed all over the globe, and is wire- transferred to fuel Hillary's campaign, as needed. She needs fund-raisers like she needs a hole in the head.
Even more egregious, the Clintons used our tax dollars AND confidential/classified/top secret State Dept info (belonging to US taxpayers) to structure the lucrative deals.
CASE IN POINT: HSBC Holdings has partnered with Deutsche Bank through the Clinton Foundation to retrofit (a Green initiative) 1,500 to 2,500 housing units, primarily in the low- to moderate-income sector in New York City. Clinton Foundation records show that the Foundation projected $1 billion in financing ...
That oughta be an easy one for Donald to expose....he knows plenty of bankers and is a NYC builder.

Good info to know - I would wager that Trump is aware and just biding his time for the most effective time to bring it up - he’s turned out to be a lot more prescient and astute than many originally gave him credit for.
“We wouldnt know squat without Judicial Watch and the hackers.”
Yep. How soon we forget. We would know next to nothing without them.

” you mean like with a rag? “
The subpoena was served at the committee meeting to the FBI representative who I believe holds the title of information director or something like that. The request was for ALL the FBI summaries of the interview with Hillary in a complete, unredacted form. Comey was not there and I do not believe that the subpoena was addressed to Comey, although he may have been named as a respondent. I was served to the FBI by the the Chair of the House Oversight Committee, Chaffetz.
Nice to hear.
They should issue an arrest warrant for Pagliano for not showing up today.

During the last testimony a congressman told him Clinton lied to congress. Comey said file a complaint. I wonder if this ever happened.
I agree, but I would line up the three executives that refused to testify that there was an immunity deal on the table and the the first person to take the deal and testify would be entered into the witness protection program.
