Who is James Comey: 7 things to know about the FBI director [Whitewater & Marc Rich]
CNN ^ | July 7, 2016 | Gregory Krieg

Posted on 09/28/2016 11:18:09 AM PDT by ETL

This was not his first time investigating the Clintons [Comey]

Nor his second. The email server probe marked the third time Comey has investigated Bill or Hillary Clinton.

His first run-in came in the mid-1990s, when he joined the Senate Whitewater Committee as a deputy special counsel. There he dug into allegations that the Clintons took part in a fraud connected to a Arkansas real estate venture gone bust. No charges were ever brought against either Clinton..."

"In 2002, Comey, then a federal prosecutor, took over an investigation into President Bill Clinton's 2001 pardon of financier Marc Rich, who had been indicted on a laundry list of charges before fleeing the country. ..."

"The Whitewater controversy (also known as the Whitewater scandal, or simply Whitewater) began with investigations into the real estate investments of Bill and Hillary Clinton and their associates, Jim and Susan McDougal, in the Whitewater Development Corporation, a failed business venture in the 1970s and 1980s."

Whitewater Convictions

Comey’s place in history can never be expunged. He will forever be known as the Obama commissar that subverted justice, betrayed the legacy of the FBI and who made possible the inherently dishonest, shamelessly corrupt, impaired and sloppy Hillary Clinton becoming the President of the United States. He can’t do anything to change what he has done. Frankly he should be put on a suicide watch.

From "TIME":
In 1996, after months of work, Comey came to some damning conclusions: Hillary Clinton was personally involved in mishandling documents and had ordered others to block investigators as they pursued their case. Worse, her behavior fit into a pattern of concealment: she and her husband had tried to hide their roles in two other matters under investigation by law enforcement.

Taken together, the interference by White House officials, which included destruction of documents, amounted to “far more than just aggressive lawyering or political naiveté,” Comey and his fellow investigators concluded. It constituted “a highly improper pattern of deliberate misconduct.”


Comey, knowing what he knew,came to a conclusion that what ILLary did with her server\emails wasn't intended ?

Nothing about Comey's relationship with a bank that laundered money for Clinton RICO Fund?

Comey works for Obama.

Peons don’t break the law fragrantly like Comey unless the boss agrees

Why did Hussen Obama want Hillary to not be indicted? It’s simple

Hussein and Hillarys deal. Hussein made two phone calls. Comey and Att Gen Lynch were told there would be no indictment

Hilary’s part is simple too She agreed to not only continue the Muslim invasion of the US, Madam Benghazi agreed to significantly increase the number of Muslim invaders

If you have to ask why a guy named Hussein would want to significantly increase the number of Muslims and therefore the numbers of Americans who will be killed in terrorist attacks, then look in the mirror and realize you are looking at an idiot.

Comey is a member of the Clinton Foundation.

I think that should explain anything.

He can’t pardon her if she’s not convicted of anything. President Trump can send her up the river where she belongs.

Obama is a tool of the commie left. He has no genuine interest in religion of any kind, other than to use it as a means of promoting hatred of the US and anti-Capitalism. That “church” he attended for 20+ years with “reverend” Wright is part of a communist-concocted religious movement known as “Black Liberation Theology”. BLT is believed to have been developed by the Russian KGB. Black communist Jame Cone was one of the original advocates here.

The commie left only sides with the islamo-nazis because both hate and want to destroy us.

Re: James Cone, founder of "Black Liberation Theology":

SEAN HANNITY: But Reverend Jeremiah Wright is not backing down and has not for years and in his strong stance on the teaching of black liberation theology is nothing new. He had the same things to say last spring when he appeared on "Hannity & Colmes:"

WRIGHT: If you're not going to talk about theology in context, if you're not going to talk about liberation theology that came out of the '60s, systematized black liberation theology that started with Jim Cone in 1968 and the writings of Cone and the writings of Dwight Hopkins and the writings of womynist theologians and Asian theologians and Hispanic theologians, then you can't talk about the black value system.

HANNITY: But I'm a - reverend

WRIGHT: Do you know liberation theology, sir?

Incorrect. Think about Ford’s pardon of Nixon, to spare the country a trial. This type of pardon is not unusual.

Well that’s great. A couple of weeks ago, we were hearing what a great honest man Comey was. Now, after the fact, we learn he’s been aiding and abetting the Clinton Crime Family for decades.

Obama can’t pardon anybody if he’s not in office.

I’m not sure if anyone actually called him that, but he did say “You can call us wrong, but don’t call us weasels. We are not weasels”.
