What I think is lost in all of this discussion about Comey, Hillary's emails, and the whole Russian business is that it was virtually certain that Hillary would be the next President of the United States. When you look at Comey's actions in that context, you can understand why he handled the email investigation the way he did. He gave Hillary a pass by rigging the investigative process, i.e., no grand jury, handing out immunities to Hillary's staff and others, taking it upon himself to make the decision as to prosecute or not, and inventing the need for intent to prosecute.
Comey's handling of the Russian connection was also suspect. The FBI never got a hold of the DNC or Podesta computers to ascertain for certain that it was the Russians who hacked them. The FBI's dealings with Steele, the former Brit intel agent, to acquire the dossier on Trump, which was commissioned by Dem operations research, and to continue to make payments to Steele raise lots of questions. It was the basis of the FISA warrant. Comey's failure to pursue the unmasking of Flynn and others may be because it would implicate him as well. All of this is under investigation now by the DOJ IG.
I could go on and on about Comey and his running of the FBI. Trump was wise to fire him.
Great stuff kabar,Comey was far dirtier than we knew.
Yeah, never mind the Fake-news "Russia hacked the election" crap.
Let's get onto the thorough, in-depth, eye-opening investigation of how the RATs have historically and methodically been stealing elections for decades, and how despite their massive efforts in the latest one....they lost anyway.
(the Russians hacked the election my @$$!)
Just for the record, Julian Assange, who published the DNC emails, says A, they were leaked, not hacked, and B, they were leaked by an American who had legal access to them. ( Podesta wasn’t hacked either. He turned over his own password to a phishing scam.)
