The DOJ is after Comey. He needs to watch his back.

"Justice Department Tradition"

You mean the one about being highly political in the direction of Communism, Socialism and Statism?

That one?

I always thought “Justice Department tradition” was to put criminals in jail. When did that biatch, Lynch, change it?!

My guess is that Comey woke up one morning, looked in the mirror and couldn’t stand what he saw looking back at him. He then reopened the investigation which likely lifted a heavy burden off of his guilt ridden soul.

Nice try, but it’s really too late for compliant Comey to quit covering for the Clinton Crime Crew. He’s still complicit in covering for Cankles.

Comey and Lynch already broke with DOJ/FBI Traditions/Policies" with the blatant "Operation Whitewash" of the first "investigation". His going against his boss' wishes sparks many questions and much speculation.

All we can do is wait and see - and hope.

We do not know what is going on behind closed doors. It is possible that “Professional” FBI persons have enough on Comey to make him try to save his freedom.

Maybe if these Clinton whores, pretending to be “Journalists” had been doing their job, there would be no questions still to be answered about Clinton wide spread corruption.

1992 election. Clinton beat Bush #41 using a bogus accusation against Casper Weinberger 4 days before the election. He was exonerated after the election. No one should feel sorry for the crooked Clintons after all the dirty things they’ve done to win.

Fair enough. Still there is simply no way he would have reopened this investigation if he wasn’t absolutely certain the what he found was going to bring Hillary down. The Dems should have kicked the Clinton’s to the curb following the Lewinsky scandal. Instead, they doubled down on this power couple and now they have this huge mess.

More like he’s worried about his own culpability.

“Nice try, but it’s really too late for compliant Comey to quit covering for the Clinton Crime Crew. He’s still complicit in covering for Cankles.”

I think Comey was caught in a difficult situation.

The DOJ sabotaged his original investigation. The DOJ attorney's said that they would not prosecute Clinton regardless of the evidence.

The DOJ attorney's granted immunity to the clearly guilty coconspirators.

Attorney General Lynch met with Bill Clinton to make secret deals and then lied about it.

Then the DOJ let Comey take the blame for not recommending prosecution.

Comey had promised under oath to keep Congress informed of future developments. FBI agents were angry about the corruption of the FBI.

Comey needed to inform Congress. There is probably much more damning evidence against Clinton that the FBI has that has not been disclosed.

Comey is doing the right thing here. But the DOJ, Clinton and the media are attacking him for it.

I hear FT. Marcy Park is very nice this time of year.

Comey needs to watch his back.

“...not taking any action that could influence the outcome of an election, but he said that he felt compelled to do otherwise.”

Clinton spin and distortion.

Hiding the fact that the investigation was ongoing with new evidence would be acting to influence to election, not hiding that fact from voters.

This argument, that the FBI is intervening or influencing the election by this is a comple 180 from reality.

It would be intervening and influencing TO HIDE information that is revelant for voters to make a decision.

The Clinton machine uses New York Magazine a lot to put out their espn and propaganda, and I see apparently also the New Yorker.

Here is my theory.

Comey has millions in ill gotten gains from Billary.
So he put people he has the goods on to investigate Billary.

Meanwhile all these other investigations going on.
The NYCPD Special Crimes is investigating Weiner and uncovers tons of crap that is outside Comey “The Weasels” control. He can’t destroy it OR cover it up due to it being in possession of an outside agency.

Oh, crap! He has to go public with it.

It is obvious that this is NOT due to serious evidence, or threats to national security because by just setting up the server to obstruct justice that bar was already met.

Of course we have been hearing about the mutiny in the FBI, so that put more pressue on Comey as well. This is likely worse that we’ve heard. The problem is that Comey cannot fire anyone, as they will go to the press.
