Palin: Comey is ‘tainted’
The Hill ^ | 22 March 2017 | By Mark Hensch

Posted on 03/22/2017 12:32:59 PM PDT by amorphous

ormer Gov. Sarah Palin (R-Alaska) says FBI Director James Comey is “tainted” by ties to the Clinton Foundation.

“The swamp runs deep,” she wrote on Facebook. "Where are congressional ‘investigators’ on this conflict of interest issue?”

“Why aren’t dots more clearly connected by those in authority, those privy to information that we peasants are not?” the GOP’s 2008 vice presidential nominee asked.

"Why is tainted Comey still part of Team Trump? How long does he get to ride the train?”

Comey on Monday confirmed the FBI is probing Russia’s meddling in the 2016 presidential election, including possible collusion between now-President Trump’s campaign and Moscow.

The article cites a September 2016 Breitbart News report titled “Exposed: FBI Director James Comey’s Clinton Foundation Connection.”

Breitbart first cited more than $6 million Comey earned in 2010 as the general counsel and vice president for Lockheed Martin. Lockheed Martin donated to the Clinton Foundation and the Clinton Global Initiative that year, it added.

Breitbart next pointed to Comey’s time as a board member, director and Financial System Vulnerabilities Commission member at HSBC Holdings in 2013. The London-based bank and its various philanthropic branches routinely partnered with the Clinton Foundation, it said.

Breitbart additionally noted that Peter Comey, James Comey’s brother, works at DLA Piper law firm in Washington, D.C. Peter Comey serves as “Senior Director of Real Estate Operations for the Americas,” the right-leaning website said. DLA Piper performed an independent audit of the Clinton Foundation last November, according to Breitbart.

One of the few times I disagree with this much abused lady.

Comey isn’t tainted so much as he is positively deliquescent with corruption. It drips from him.

“Tainted” is a very polite word for what Comey is.

Sarah Palin is CORRECT.

I've said it 100 times already myself.

Comey is a BAD COP.

Thanks Sarah. I’m glad she is also asking these questions.
That puts Comey on notice that no one is fooled by his legalese blather. Too much stuff has happened or been allowed to happen on his watch, starting with the failure to indict Mrs. Clinton for criminal negligence while SOS.

He’s a taint all right. Why isn’t he gone?

It will be interesting to see where the new information from Congressman Nunes leads.

Comey goes back to Whitewater with Hillary...he did a "guilty as sin, free as a bird" back then also.

In 1996, after months of work, Comey came to some damning conclusions: Hillary Clinton was personally involved in mishandling documents and had ordered others to block investigators as they pursued their case. Worse, her behavior fit into a pattern of concealment: she and her husband had tried to hide their roles in two other matters under investigation by law enforcement.

Taken together, the interference by White House officials, which included destruction of documents, amounted to “far more than just aggressive lawyering or political naiveté,” Comey and his fellow investigators concluded. It constituted “a highly improper pattern of deliberate misconduct.”


It was Comey who limited the scope of the investigation into Sandy Berger's removal and destruction of classified records from the National Archives.

It was Comey who was in charge of the Plame fiasco after Aschroft recused himself.

17 Intel agencies and only one, the NSA, released the transcripts that the House Intelligence Committee requested that everyone knows they gathered from their Trump Transition surveillance. Why hasn’t that worm, Comey, responded to their request, according to Committee Chairman Nunez? This stinks when we know that Obama spread these transcripts around like fertilizer, knowing they’d get out. Someone should be tried, convicted and sentenced for this.

He plays the political game and favors the Left more than the Right, but seems to have some nebulous and cavalier attitude and lack of courage to go after seriously real crimes masked as government operations.

If I was the director of the FBI and my AG met with the husband of a current and high profile investigation, I would have marched into her office unannounced with two special investigators and have a brief talk with her.

Then I would have gone public at how egregious this was. The very epitome of crony politics and abusive government bureaucrats obstructing justice.
