Fmr U.S. Atty: Comey’s Hand Forced by FBI ‘Seething’ Anger at Botched Hillary Email Investigation
Breitbart.com ^ | 30 Oct 2016 | Lee Stranahan

Posted on 10/30/2016 1:31:53 PM PDT by Rockitz

In an exclusive interview with Breitbart News, the former U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Joseph DiGenova gave a stark assessment of what led to FBI Director James Comey’s recent decision to reopen the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server, after an investigation into Anthony Weiner’s sexting scandal led to the discovery of thousands of emails on the computer of Weiner’s estranged wife, top Hillary Clinton aide, Huma Abedin. The picture painted by DiGenova, based on what he says are discussions with current and former FBI agents, is one of “seething” rage inside the Bureau at the way Comey handled the investigation concerning Hillary Clinton’s private email server. Mr. DiGenova eviscerated the way Comey conducted his investigation and explained that he believes it has tarnished the FBI director’s reputation permanently, telling Breitbart News:

The original so-called ‘investigation’ was not an investigation. It was not thorough. It was not professional. As far as we know there was no grand jury, which an ordinary investigation would have. There were no grand jury subpoenas, there were no search warrants. Immunities were given out like candy. Attorneys were allowed to represent multiple witnesses and defendants which is completely inconsistent with federal policy and ethical standards. The list is endless.

...

Well, he didn’t have any choice. He had to send the letter once he was confronted with the evidence of the New York investigation. If he hadn’t sent the letter, there would have been leaks out of New York and he would have been embarrassed. So, he sent the letter because he didn’t have any choice and it’s as simple as that. I mean, they were gonna leak it, and he knew it.

This is good to hear although he absolutely needs to be one of the first canned in a Trump administration.

From Wikileaks:

Feinstein wanted to shill for Hillary on Benghazi, IG concerned about classified intel on thumb drive and server.

Just so the emphasis is in the Clintons and not huma/weiner.

I just heard a radio talk show host delcare that Comey “had gotten RELIGION”:

Ridiculous.

He was serving his own interests before, he is serving his own interests NOW.

It was abundantly clear his leadership and maybe the whole FBI was about to be overtaken by a Niagara Falls of leaking.

He’s simply trying to harvest a soupcon of credibility. That, and if there’s an ongoing investigation then he can decline to give any specifics of what he’s seeing.

He’d be the VERY FIRST person I’d fire upon ascending the Presidency.

The mere thought he will draw ANY pension after what he has done to this country fills me with disgust.

The NYPD had the dynamite. Checkout one of Podesta's emails.

“...Bill de Blasio: I stay in touch with him and his team a lot. He has recently asked to have increased direct access to HRC so he can tell his progressive partners what she thinks about issues important to them. He also thinks he can be most helpful to her if he has that kind of relationship. He wants to be seen as the loudest progressive voice for her and in order to do that he needs access. In the next 6 months, someone else will have to inherit this relationship because it will not be tenable for HRC...”

===========================================

Bill swears in the new Mayor as de Blasio's family looks on.

De Blasio headed Hillary's Senate race.

============================================

THE ODD COUPLE---BLOBBIO DESCRIBES HER AS HIS "NUMBER ONE ADVISOR" Insider buzz is that Blobbio is ruled by his wife---that the two work hand in hand to make public policy decisions.----Earlier news reports say Police Commissioner Bratton cautioned DeBlob not to bring his wife to the crucial meeting held to redress grievances of five cop unions Blobbio had slandered.

RESUME ENHANCEMENT PROGRESSIVE-STYLE During DeBlobbio's campaign, his wife Chirlane I. McCray was billed as a writer, poet, editor, communications professional, and political figure who published poetry and worked in politics for the Clintons.

THE REAL STORY Mrs DeBlobbio loudly declared her lesbianism in a magazine article---she was in a black feminist lesbian group and wrote poetry about being a lesbian. Politicker noted her husband's campaign website doesn't reference her background as an avowed lesbian and a lesbian activist or lesbian poet: It notes her affiliation with the Combahee River Collective, omitting mention of the group’s lesbian roots, referencing it as "a pioneering black feminist collective."

The two met while both worked for the Dinkins campaign. She says she had a nose ring and wore African garb when he spotted her and was completely smitten. She never told him she was a lesbian. And later said after their marriage she was still attracted to women. During the mayoral campaign, she was asked about her lesbian lifestyle----she retorted she "didn't understand the question." The Blobbio's honeymooned in Communist Cuba and picked coffee beans w/ Sandinistas (then America's arch-enemies).

The New York Post ran a cartoon depicting the couple in bed, McCray on the phone telling someone, "I used to be a lesbian, but my husband, Bill de Blasio, won me over," while her husband lay beside her clad in sexy lingerie.

This is the same James Comey who was shown to have been compromised with respect to the Clinton family due to the “millions of dollars that [he] accepted from a Clinton Foundation defense contractor, [his] former membership on a Clinton Foundation corporate partner’s board, and his surprising financial relationship with his brother Peter Comey, who works at the law firm that does the Clinton Foundation’s taxes.”

This is part of it but there is much more behind this.

Joseph DiGenova, has it occurred to you that Comey is compromised?

DiGenova, being a former U.S. Attorney, must have really seen red, when any law enforcement official makes a decision regarding a prosecutor’s authority.

Comey was fronting for Lynch - saying that no prosecutor would take the case - when in fact that is Lynch’s job to announce, not Comeys.

That is the clearest evidence that Comey is politically driven, as Lynch was too embarrassed to make the announcement, having been caught at that “unplanned” meeting with Biil on the plane.

Any pilot knows that given the full and precise nature of flight plans, the meetup had to be planned at least days in advance and cleared by the airport, FAA and the hangar operator.

What I don’t get is this: Given the hacking, access, leaks, how does anyone involved think that this scandal, which is far larger than Watergate, is going to stay their little secret????

You can bet the farm that Weiner is going to sing like a bird - Huma is gone and he is looking at multiple felonies for sexting with underage girls.

If Hillary were to get elected, this will cripple her presidency by dominating the news for years.

Any Hillary potential voter ought to know this by now and at least stay home.

Nope. Flight plans can be made on the spot at any time and they can even be made in the air.

Not a Russian.

Thank you, Special Agent Leaker, for forcing Comey's hand.

But the coordination of both security details etc would not have happened on the fly. It was certainly a pre-arranged secret meeting that was never supposed to be disclosed.

When I google “dirty cop” and Comey, it gives me about 118,000 results.

“It was certainly a pre-arranged secret meeting that was never supposed to be disclosed.”

Since it takes hours to fly there, you bet. No one looked out a window in flight and said, “Hey, let’s go land there. I think I know her!”

So it was partisan to drop it, not to take it up as Reid claims
