Comey’s review of emails related to Clinton server triggered by NY agents, source says

FBI Director James Comey’s decision to revisit the Hillary Clinton email-private server case was purportedly trigged by New York agents working on the unrelated case of former New York Democratic Rep. Anthony Weiner allegedly “sexting” an underage female.

A law enforcement source told Fox News on Sunday that the New York team told agents involved in the investigation into Clinton using a private server system while secretary of state: “We think we've come across some documents pertinent to your investigation."

Weiner is married to top Clinton aide Huma Abedin, and a laptop connected to the sexting case was purportedly shared by the couple.

Comey was further compelled to review the documents based on two factors: the volume of documents and his commitment under oath to Congress to review “any new and substantial information,” the source also said. Comey restarted the case Thursday after being briefed by agents. He subsequently told Congress, and Capitol Hill Republicans the next day boasted that the FBI had reopened its investigation into Clinton using a private Internet server system while secretary of state.

In July, Comey wrapped up the one-year investigation into Clinton using the private server, saying she was “extremely careless” and that some of the emails off the server included classified information. However, he said investigators had not found enough evidence that Clinton had mishandled classified information to recommend criminal charges.

Whoa, I don’t know who’s in deeper personal legal kimchee, Mr or Mrs Weiner. They both could be singing like canaries.

Stumbled upon this tidbit on a facebook thread for one of Trump’s rallies

Supposedly a screen grab of comment posted in a private facebook forum for NYPD officers and their families and shared on Twitter.

If it’s true, it’s way beyond leaking and sellling influence and state secrets. We’re now into the realm of pedophilia, child abuse, human trafficking and slavery.

In other words, because it was discovered outside the FBI, Comey
could not cover up or “fix” it.

The NYPD doing the work the FBI and Justice Department refuses to do.

God Bless them.

Like this wonderful bit of news about Huma:

She also signed a State Department document stating that she no longer maintained classified information, as part of her official exit from the agency.

Made my day. That is good enough to issue a warrant for her arrest _now_.

With the NY FBI doing this, the Pro Trump rally in Manhattan and the fact that Trump is from NYC I can actually be a little proud for about 10 minutes :)

Said tweet concludes, “Not even Hillary’s most ardent supporters will be able to ignore this.”

That’s a high bar. They are beyond ardent.

The Clinton manure pile continues to grow. The question is will the foul stench reach the clogged nostrils of the muddled middle voters who will determine this election.

I trust investigative reporter Catherine Herridge above all. She seems to have the inside contacts and simply reports the news. A true reporter without bias.
