Comey: DNC never allowed FBI access to hacked server
American Thinker ^ | April 6, 2017 | Karin McQuillan

Posted on 04/06/2017 8:16:08 PM PDT by detective

Despite all the headlines pushing the Obama-generated fake news of Russia hacking the election, it turns out the DNC never allowed the FBI to inspect their compromised servers.  FBI director Comey told the Senate Intelligence Committee a month ago that to this day, they have never inspected the hacked machines.  Instead of a direct FBI investigation, the DNC hired a private firm that shared its forensics with the FBI.   I wonder if the DNC hired the same firm that stored our national security secrets on Hillary Clinton's server in their bathroom closet.

Well, when the Server was never “Hacked”, but a USB stick was used, you really don’t want that known.

Great job there, Comey. It’s not like you’re the FBI and could just go after it (probably several of them) or anything.

Awesome job you’re doing for The Clinton Foundation.

[Why couldn’t the FBI have obtained a warrant and seized the server as they would have done is most any other investigation where justification existed?]

Oh now you’re talking crazy.....

Plus what’s this “allow” business?

Cops bust down doors based on less but they needed a note saying “you can check our servers”?

Yes a company owned by a Ukranian.

It becomes another dangling thread. I didn’t know that one could refuse the FBI so easily.

No evidence of hacking because no investigation was actually done.

Crooked crooks selling Stalinist lies.

If I recall the Left’s conspiracy theory, there were certain tell-tale signs (language?) that indicated it was likely the work of Rooshins.

Didn’t we just see a wikileaks release of CIA/government tools that included methods to falsely leave tell-tale signs of intrusion by numerous foreign nations including Russia?

I've said it a dozen times already... "COMEY IS A DIRTY COP" - he's constantly working both sides of the street.

The DNC called in a thief to see who committed the robbery.

>>Yet supposedly the so called "intelligence" community has is convinced that Russia hacked the servers.

Uhh. Would that be the same "intelligence" community that just convinced President Trump that Asad decided to gas his people... and commit suicide by Trump?

'cause, those fatalities in Syria just COULDN'T be related to the chemical weapons Hillary, the "community", and the other L.I.F.E.R.s in the Regime Change Investment Club armed ISIS with.

Nope - that couldn't be!

I don’t think private entities should be conducting any aspect of investigations. That’s something that we need save for people who are not beholden to any commercial interests.

FBI never heard of federal search warrant /sarcasm

Why doesn't the FBI ever go WACO or Ruby Ridge stupid where it would do some good?

Recall the FBI Director in his verbal indictment of Hillary’s server stated that while it was likely that foreign powers had breached said server, there was no way to be sure because Russia is expert at not leaving evidence of such.

But we are to believe that the Russians were so sloppy that they hacked the DNC computer and left behind commonly known malware traces such as fancy bear.

More disturbing, I’m just a joe schmuck still waiting for someone in position to matter to rise this question to our esteemed Mr. Comey.
