Good day all. After the disgraceful actions by FBI Director James “yellowbelly” Comey in not recommending the indictment of Hillary Clinton yesterday, several members of congress have pointedly asked Comey to answer some questions.
Rather than fight the summons, Comey has said he will appear tomorrow, (June 7th), to answer for his actions. Here are some of the details from Fox News:
FBI Director James Comey will explain Thursday to House lawmakers his bombshell decision not to recommend criminal charges against Hillary Clinton over her handling of sensitive emails.
Bombshell is right. What Comey did was like a woman having sex. A great big build up and “PFFFT” that’s it, and her partner rolls over and goes to sleep leaving her very unsatisfied.
Comey, who took no questions after announcing his decision Tuesday, agreed to go before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee after several lawmakers sought an explanation. In saying he would not press the Justice Department to pursue an indictment against the likely Democrat nominee for president, Comey nonetheless laid out a strong case that she had violated laws regulating government employees’ safeguarding of sensitive emails.
Comey’s initial remarks seemed to indicate that he was going to recommend a criminal indictment of Cankles. When he announced that he wouldn’t make that recommendation, a lot of people were rather surprised. The excuses he made in not recommending charges has left a bitter taste in everyone’s mouth and people think that the Clinton’s have once again skated because they are “Special People. This is what is setting everyone off.
“The FBI’s recommendation is surprising and confusing,” Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, said.
“The fact pattern presented by Director Comey makes clear Secretary Clinton violated the law. Individuals who intentionally skirt the law must be held accountable. Congress and the American people have a right to understand the depth and breadth of the FBI’s investigation.”
I watched some of the reactions by former federal prosecutors and all of them seemed to think that something was going on. From what they heard from Comey the Craven lilly-livered chicken, someone got to him.
Comey said 110 emails in 52 email chains discovered on Clinton’s unauthorized server were classified at the time they were sent or received, including some that were “top secret.” He also said that while the probe did not prove Clinton’s server was hacked, it may have been – and he pointedly noted that she used unsecure devices while visiting countries hostile to the U.S.
And right there was all he needed to recommend criminal charges against Cankles, but no. He decided to rewrite a statute. Funny, I don’t recall him in Congress. Oh! Maybe he thinks he’s the DOJ’s version of Barack Obama!
In addition to Chaffetz, Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., and Rep. Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., wrote the FBI director demanding to know how he justified his decision.
I think the real reason was a Meme I saw yesterday. Comey wants to live. As we all know, people who might be a threat to the Clintons have a nasty habit of getting very dead at very convenient moments.
House and Senate judiciary committees could also seek testimony from Comey and his boss, Attorney General Loretta Lynch.
I definitely want to hear from that crook. What she did with Bill Clinton smacks of major ethical violations.
Lynch was already slated to testify next Tuesday at a House Oversight Committee hearing where Fox News has learned she will be questioned about the email investigation, and possibly her secret meeting with former President Bill Clinton just days before her department dropped the email case against the former first lady.
On the flip side, when Chicken Comey laid out the case against Cankles, he really didn’t help her.
Comey’s decision was seen in many quarters as a punt. By branding Clinton’s use of unauthorized servers to send and receive sensitive — and in some cases top secret — information as “extremely careless,” Comey gave Clinton’s critics plenty of ammunition.
And Donald Trump is backing up to the ammo dump even now.
By stopping short of referring the results of his bureau’s year-long probe to the Attorney General to pursue an indictment, Comey may have removed the biggest obstacle in Clinton’s path to the White House.
Clinton will be utterly devastating to the country of she becomes president. She is corrupt, a pathological liar and only cares about herself. Hillary Clinton has all the traits of a typical Third World dictator and none of the charm. Then there is the excuse Cowardly Comey used to let Cankles skate again.
“Our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case,” Comey said.
What that meant was that he was told by Lynch and Obama to drop the case since no Obama appointed prosecutor will ever try Cankles Clinton. The responses yesterday on that statement from former prosecutors gives lie to that excuse. The other bit of crap he delivered was that while he didn’t recommend going after Cankles, Comey also said they would go after others, not named Clinton, who did far less than she did. This has generated a lot of questions from Congress.
“If the evidence that the FBI collected about Secretary Clinton’s use of a private email account and server did not constitute gross negligence, what set of facts would cause the FBI to recommend criminal charges under the gross negligence standard?” Senator Ron Johnson wrote.
Johnson recounted the statement, in which the FBI director detailed what he called “extremely careless” handling of sensitive government emails, and said the bureau could not be sure Clinton’s server was not hacked and even added that government employees who behaved similarly could expect to be sanctioned.
Like a sailor who took pictures of his station on a submarine. He’s looking at 20 years, and no one thinks those pictures went anywhere. He didn’t email them and as far as I know, didn’t put them up in the cloud. Compare that with Cankles mail server and the probability that it was hacked and looted by pretty much everybody.
Goodlatte, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, also wrote Comey and detailed several other cases in which lower-ranking government employees have been prosecuted for mishandling sensitive information.
Well we know the reason for that. They broke the law, but they’re not named “Clinton.”
Goodlatte and Johnson both noted that one of the statutes Clinton was suspected of violating does not require criminal intent. The law is written to impose an obligation on government employees to safeguard sensitive documents, and thus requires a finding of gross negligence.
And that was the big take away from the press conference. Comey basically ignored the statute and rewrote it so he could give Cankles a pass. Without a doubt, the Congresscritters are going to ask Comey some very pointed questions. As it is, he has basically demonstrated what everyone has long suspected. If you’re one of the “Special People” you will always get a free pass.
Comey may want to consider how rebellions and revolutions get started, including ours. The appearance, if not the fact, of special treatment for certain people while everyone else gets shafted.
Thatisall
