Comey: Hillary’s FBI Testimony Wasn’t Under Oath Or Recorded, But It Would Still Be a Crime To Lie
Breitbart ^ | July 7,2016 | by IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 07/07/2016 10:30:36 AM PDT by Hojczyk

During testimony before Congress on Thursday, FBI Director James Comey stated that the FBI’s interview with presumptive Democratic presidential nominee former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was not under oath or recorded, but it still would be a crime to lie to the FBI.

Comey stated that he did not personally interview Clinton, and did not talk to all of the “five or six” who did interview Clinton.

He was then asked, “did she testify or talk to them under oath?” Comey answered, “No.” But added that “it’s still a crime to lie to us.”

When asked if there was a transcript of the interview, Comey stated that there wasn’t one because the interview wasn’t recorded, but there was an analysis of Clinton’s interview.

Why was she not under oath - for the love of God! Is this the Keystone cops? Journalist Michael Tracey observes:

Comey did not investigate whether HRC violated FOIA or made perjurious statements to Congress. So: fodder for several more investigations— Michael Tracey (@mtracey) July 7, 2016

The FBI didn’t bother to video an interview of a target suspect in a months long investigation? That never happens. That shows right there the fix was in.

What other conclusion can there be?

Journalist Michael Tracey:

Chaffetz's hearing is clearly yielding useful information about the workings of the FBI. Dismissing it out of hand is pure partisan hackery.— Michael Tracey (@mtracey) July 7, 2016

Lying to the FBI is a crime, under oath or not. It is CLEAR that they did not want to be put in a situation where this would be the case with regard to Hillary Clinton. Why would the FBI care? Aren't they supposed to be about Truth, Justice and the American Way? Or is something else going on?

Something else is going on.

I think they made a mockery of the process. They probably said, we have to meet with you to make it look like we’re doing our job. No worries.

Disgraceful.

The FBI did not even investigate where they knew she was guilty and would need to be interrogated under oath - her intent to violate the Freedom Of Information Act and her perjury to congress under oath.

“Trump is right. It’s a rigged system.”

It’s amazing how spot on he is about the rigged system. People think he exaggerates, but he is so correct. Amazing.

Thank you for your enlightening post #140. Your post makes it quite clear that it is standard procedure to record all and every interview.
And of all people not to record an interview, it is very suspect that the FBI didn't record this one. Especially this one!

Lol! The FBI officially goes on display as rank amateurs and stooges. You don’t videotape or even audio tape the main suspect? Haha ha.

Why does everyone get SO UPSET??

who gives a #### about some billionaire wife of an ex president who we knew was NEVER going to jail when compared to SAVING THE COUNTRY.

This is more and more ammo to use against her and it stays in the papers.

The righteous indignation is enough already. Geez.

Here is what he was convicted on.

"J. Dennis Hastert, once among the nation’s most powerful politicians, was sentenced on Wednesday to 15 months in prison for illegally structuring bank transactions in an effort to cover up his sexual abuse of young members of a wrestling team he coached decades ago."

The way that Comey gives her a pass is she pled ignorant and stupid to technology... you know oh that email stuff is just too hard for me to understand I really didn’t know what anyone was sending me, I thought everyone at State was ok with it, everyone knew I was doing it, the granny defense... that’s why there is no transcript because the country would go batshit reading just how incompetent she is in her own words..... I agree that Congress should select a special prosecutor for her blatant lies even though state and the Rats are trying to give her cover for the Marked classified portion....

The U.S. government at all levels is corrupt to the core.

The D.C. disciples of deceit are all backed by the crowns of collusion.
