Upon completing this investigation more than three months ago, FBI Director Comey declared no reasonable prosecutor would move forward with a case like this and added that it was not even a close call. In the months since, Donald Trump and his Republican allies have been baselessly second-guessing the FBI and, in both public and private, browbeating the career officials there to revisit their conclusion in a desperate attempt to harm Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.
FBI Director Comey should immediately provide the American public more information than is contained in the letter he sent to eight Republican committee chairmen. Already, we have seen characterizations that the FBI is ‘reopening’ an investigation but Comey’s words do not match that characterization. Director Comey’s letter refers to emails that have come to light in an unrelated case, but we have no idea what those emails are and the Director himself notes they may not even be significant.
It is extraordinary that we would see something like this just 11 days out from a presidential election.
The Director owes it to the American people to immediately provide the full details of what he is now examining. We are confident this will not produce any conclusions different from the one the FBI reached in July.
Gee that’s too bad.
Makes me feel better all over than any place else.
“This is going to be a huge win for Hillary”
Sober up if you post here instead of DU.

I’m surprised they didn’t suggest Anthony Weiner was a Russian agent.
DU and KOS must be going insane!!
And yes, it IS A GREAT day.
First nephew passes bar on first attempt. Now this.

Methinks you need a bromide.

Its idiotic but if Trump, A private citizen, COULD browbeat the FBI to his will THAT would make Trump the BADDEST of the badasses.

I knew there must be some validation.
Podesta with great prescience said in a wikileak that the emails were going to be deadly, in so many words. He isn’t in much of a position to lambaste the FBI.
That, Boss, could replace whatever is currently in Webster’s under ‘HUBRIS’, ehh ?
“Why would there be any need for someone to “hold up” an investigation in this case”
I think the inference was that Comey might pretend to be investigating the slew of new revelations, through the election, for the appearance of “something being done”. Stall for time. I hope not, but I wouldn’t be surprised.
F*ck John Podesta.
