James Comey’s Testimony on Huma Abedin Forwarding Emails Was Inaccurate

Huma Abedin — Weiner’s wife and a top Clinton deputy — had made “a regular practice” of forwarding “hundreds and thousands” of Clinton messages to her husband, “some of which contain classified information.” Comey testified that Abedin had done this so that the disgraced former congressman could print them out for her boss. (Weiner’s laptop was seized after he came under criminal investigation for sex crimes, following a media report about his online relationship with a teenager.)
 
The problem: Much of what Comey said about this was inaccurate. Now the FBI is trying to figure out what to do about it.
 
FBI officials have privately acknowledged that Comey misstated what Abedin did and what the FBI investigators found. On Monday, the FBI was said to be preparing to correct the record by sending a letter to Congress later this week. But that plan now appears on hold, with the bureau undecided about what to do.

If they can confront Comey with a Perjury charge they can get him to resign immediately. He can then be fired for cause.<<<

HSBC was the bank. Also he prosecuted Martha Stewart in a case that involved actual purjury from an FBI agent.

“FBI officials have privately acknowledged that Comey misstated what Abedin did and what the FBI investigators found.”

Does this refer to the statements that Comey made that probably lost Hillary the election? If so, then I would think that Trump would be grateful, even if he can’t come right out and say so.

I did read what you stated. I went back and read it again. You suggest giving Comey enough rope to hang himself. A few hours later Trump fired Comey rendering what I said and you said as “MOOT”. Trump does own Comey now. He didn’t at the time of your original post.

“Judicial Watch and other government watchdog groups have charged that the Clinton Foundation was a pay-for-play operation that rewarded its benefactors with State Department favors. “

JW is going after ALL of them

I think it goes deeper than that, I think it permeates some CIA ops and is the reason why he said "we cant reveal" some of the blacked out emails. I think Comey was in a pickle, forced to lie to cover up heinous CIA activities, which also acted to cover up less heinous extortion activity. Comey got bogged down in Obama's swamp and there was no escape,

Comey "married the hole" and just kept digging deeper , like a miner with a dry mineshaft, when it started to effect the new administration they had to cut the rope

Obama will have full immunity for his and Hillary's war crimes "in the interest of National Security"...what really happened in Benghazi, in Syria, with Seal Team Six, his relationship with the Muslim Brotherhood and deals to Iran will never see the light of day.

but trumps relations with Russia, now thats worthy of a 4 month news cycle and major drama in congress, special prosecutor Witch Hunt and all that
