I believe the opposite. I think the FBI came up with this and other things as their contribution to the effort and told Hillary, use this crap.
Hillary is untouchable..above the law... for some reason..?
Because the enforcers of the law are irredeemably corrupt.
The email records don’t support that. Contemporaneous meeting notes and other real evidence show the FBI second-tier guy whose name I forget (something like Bruce?) got the word from his wife who worked at Fusion GPS that this was coming before it was done. Obummer and Byethen may have colluded on the inception, and the FIBbers jumped aboard early.
