Jeanine Pirro defends Clinton on FBI review announcement
Politico | 10/30/16 | Rebecca Morin

Posted on 10/30/2016 10:35:22 AM PDT by Behind Liberal Lines

In an opening statement on her show "Justice with Judge Jeanine," Pirro said the announcement Friday by FBI Director James Comey that the bureau will review newly found emails in connection with Clinton's private email server "disgraces and politicizes the FBI and is symptomatic of all that is wrong in Washington."

BS. Check your lousy source. Politico? LOL!

Pirro is TRUMP’s adamant supporter and Hillary’s toughest critic.

Pirro had as her guest, a former Asst. Director of FBI with whom she agreed whole heartedly, that Comey had to come forward with what he had.

She also was near hysterical on Hannity Friday night, trying to get a word in edgewise, against what Hillary is up to and the FBI exposing her once again, through the NYPD.

-

Comey went along with the DOJ in creating a sham investigation.

Then Comey found out the info wasn’t contained, and he had exposure for his testimony to Congress.

However, to put it in context that Hillary, who ignores laws so recklessly, was wronged by Comey is egregiously outrageous.

I don’t know what Pirro was thinking. She is very good, usually.

See post 55 and how Breitbart covered it. She screwed up and Politico pounced.

Watch the show! She said that the FBI/DOJ should never comment on ongoing investigations! Yeah..., we like it this time BUT..., were it to be YOU, would you want the investigation of some baseless allegation disclosed to ruin your reputation? THINK ABOUT IT! THERE IS A REASON THAT A RESPONSIBLE LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY DOES NOT GO BEYOND "WE DO NOT COMMENT"!

The FBI screwed up the original investigation and deceptively said to the voters that all was clear. And they did THAT for political reasons several months before an election.

The FBI is now correcting the public record, and thankfully they are making that correction right before an election.

Pirro is an intelligent woman and she should understand that and how this case differs from what happened to her. But she doesn't. And all the caps that you used doesn't mitigate the differences.

What part of “new evidence” is this Judge Pirro unable to grasp?

THIS. I wish there was a like button.

Exactly. If there was nothing there, Politico wouldn’t have a story.

Wow, I see FR has a new batch of idiots. Watch her show. You are completely mischaractetizing her stance on the subject. She is correct. Did Comey suddenly become a bastion of honesty and virtue? If you think that you’re no better than the Left who put ideology above the law. Thanks to all those trying to put these people straight on what Pirro’s message was. Geez.

First of all, had the FBI actually done a real investigation in the first place, we would not be here.

Secondly, Comey had to know that his move last week was contrary to normal practice and would start another sh*tstorm. So why do it?

There are any number of theories out there. But here is what I think it undeniable: (1) Whatever was found on Weiner's computer was politically explosive. (2) No one invites the sort of abuse that Comey is getting unless failing to act would result in even worse consequences.

Question: Is it possible that the Attorney General does not know the nature of what was found?

Question: Does Hillary Clinton even know what is on those devices? Or does she just fear what might be on them?

I love her. I give her a pass on this one thing I disagree with her on. She is still the best.

You obviously didn’t watch her show but feel the need to attack Pirro - and now me. Rather pitiful....

See Post 55. You can defend her all you want but Pirro made a mistake and the left—as exemplified by Politico—is using it, out of context or otherwise.

We post on a board that reminds us—every single time we post—that “loose lips sink ships.” But suddenly we’re to forgive Pirro for her loose lips simply because she’s normally on “our side”?

She screwed up and my pointing out—as I did with my initial post—that Politico had spun it is a hardly MY mischaracterization of her remarks.

Holding you head in the sand and pretending she didn't play into the Clinton camp's hands on this one by parroting their main talking point--even while attacking Clinton otherwise--is not going to stop the spin.

I apologize. I get your point.

If they still work for Fox their loyalty is questionable.

Thanks.

That was Corey’s excuse, but I’m not buying it. I think he had a mutiny on his hands. He used the excuse to justify the reopening of the case.

I used his excuse to take Pirro to task, because it was on the public record.

Another poster said she’s been supportive of Trump too. I know that, but it always seems there one useful idiot around every time Hillary needs one.

Now she can point to Pirro (A Big Trump Supporter) to prove she’s right saying this is unfair.

Sometimes it’s just best not to say some things in public.

I wish Pirro had taken a pass on this.

I watched her whole show yesterday (including an unwatchable segment with Mary Ann Marsh). She didn’t defend Mrs Clinton. At all.

They should step back and listen to themselves. They are basically saying if you want to slow down an investigation on yourself—run for President. This issue has been out there for some time. Certainly well before the witch was fighting Trump and Bernie.

I watched it twice. She was not defending Clinton. She was attacking Comey.

What is rather pitiful, is that you couldn’t come to the thread like an adult, and simply explain why you thought folks should cut Pirro some slack.

There was no need to insult folks who were only responding to someone else reasoned take on what she said.

If you can’t deal with stuff like this without getting huffy, it’s not our problem.

In addition, you stated that Pirro has been supportive of Trump. Yes I know. Newt is often good too. And then he goes and says something incredibly stupid the other side can use.

And here Hillary now has the ability to say that this is all so unfair, and even Judge Pirro, a big Trump supporter, agrees.

This is what is known as a useful idiot move.

Hillary should send Pirro a thank you card. As I understand it Nopolotano deserves one too.

Of course Pirro didn't defend Clinton.

What she clearly said was that Comey should not have made public his decision to reopen the case.

I think she is wrong, and I love Pirro BTW.
