Comey stands by decision not to charge HRC after review of additional emails
2016-11-06
[New York Post] PHILADELPHIA -- FBI Director James Comey abruptly announced Sunday that a review of newly discovered emails sent or received by Hillary Clinton has not changed his conclusion that the Democrat should not face criminal charges. His announcement came in a letter to congressional lawmakers two days before Election Day.

Comey said the FBI has worked "around the clock to process and review a large number of emails" obtained from a device belonging to Anthony Weiner, the disgraced former congressman and estranged husband of top Clinton aide Huma Abedin. He said the review has not changed the bureau’s assessment from earlier this year that Clinton should not be prosecuted for her handling of classified information at the State Department.

The new review has roiled the presidential campaign in its final days, shattering what had appeared to be Clinton’s solid grip on the race and emboldening Republican Donald Trump. During a campaign stop earlier Sunday, Trump warned that Clinton would be under investigation as president, prompting an "unprecedented constitutional crisis."

#14  The good Director slammed the door and stared at it for a moment. He knew what was in the manila envelope on the dining room table behind him. He sighed. "She's got my whole life in there."

JHH, What was in the envelope? A copy of a compromising video obtained from the Russians. Blackmail pictures taken at Little St. James Island? His testicles?

#10  This eliminates any resistances or repercussions to election fraud on behalf of Hildabeast. Expect Hildabeast as POTUS Wednesday morning.

#9  Rationalization is in full swing with Mr. Comey...

He merely awoke our appetite and then gave it nothing to bed it back down.

The damage done to Clinton remains - we thank the fool for that anyways.

#7  He should be tried as a traitor, along with Lynch, for treason and high crimes against the United States, and upon conviction promptly hanged by the neck until dead

#6   Comey escorted the Clinton's attorney, Mr. Kobayashi, somewhat brusquely to the front door and saw him out. Kobayashi ambled to the end of the block and disappeared around the corner.

#5  Yep. I so called it.

Time for the revolution to kick off and depose of these tyrants.

#4  Unfortunately for Clinton, Comey's new letter only makes him look MORE guilty of protecting Hillary. If there's justice and he hangs for his treason, I hope instead of being offered a last chance to speak, the hangman simply says, "What difference will it make?" and yanks the lever.

#2  An oddly timed announcement...

#1  So its ok to have your maid print your confidential and secret documents for you.

This is all theater. Designed to give Hillary a bump just before the election.
