Good chance to start following the trail of old ThunderThighs.

"misconduct involving the FBI’s investigation of Hillary Clinton’s email practices"

Well, obviously!! Since Hillary has not yet been tried, convicted, sentenced and hanged, some people in FBI or other Traitorobama kakistocracy have been dragging his feet and hindering justice.

If it helps get Coney out so Trump can appoint a new FBI director,
I’m all for it.

Trying to head off and mitigate any actual future findings, imho. Note that this is still the Obama administration Justice Department.

Hmmm. I wonder if this is an attempt to push that FBI misconduct helped to defeat Hillary and to further the Leftist assertion that Trump’s election is illegitimate. This investigation will keep the allegations alive and it is being started under the Obama Administration.

I am predicting rats will be jumping off the docks. This is necessary and will be brutal. I see Machiavelli here very clearly. You need to be warned so you can look away.

They must think the Russians infiltrated the FBI to swing the election.

Oh, I thought this was about the Bill Clinton Loretta Lynch meeting on the tarmac in AZ. You know, the one to clear Hillary before the election.

Silly me.

They will do whatever it takes to discredit trumps win. This is baiting trump or sessions into closing the inquiry so they can charge obstruction

If I were sessions I’d expand the inquiry to determine how many fed statutes were violated by podesta and hitlery.

From this excerpt, it leads me to think this will be approached from the angle of what they may have done unfairly to the Clinton camp.

That would not be my emphasis.

Next we’ll hear that the evidence went missing and then nothing more.

At the time of Comey’s first public comments (July?), I said it was a mistake because he was then obligated to provide updates if the situation changed. When the situation changed, he did what he had to do. As much as I enjoyed watching Hillary’s team squirm, I wish the FBI had simply done their job quietly and had stayed out of politics.
