Comey's remarks on Clinton probe heavily edited

DoJ is infested with Obama holdovers and bureaucratic loyalists like Rosenstein.
It's the same reasoning for firing all the State Dept foreign service officers and diplomats, and support staff -
they are hostile to Trump

The swamp and the Deep State are real?
 
HA! by this DoJ??
Sessions should recuse himself from recusal - appoint the appropriate prosecutors and either resign or tell the Dems to go to hell or impeach him.

But Jeff is too honorable with that southern peculiarity that he has to rise above it all

Sessions is a huge disappointment.

I can only assume four things.

1) he is incompetent
2) he is compromised somehow and is being blackmailed
3) he is gathering evidence behind the scenes to blow the whole thing up
4) if he does blow the whole thing it will shake the very foundations of our Republic and he is therefore holding back

In Strzok’s case that’s putting it mildly.

Strzok probably thought he was honor bound to save the country from a Hitler, so he schemed to sabotage Trump.

This week FBI Director Christopher Wray refused to answer whether Strzok applied for the FISA warrant on Trump/Trump’s people. Wray refused to answer the question. These people shouldn’t be getting away with this. Wray should at least been threatened with contempt of Congress for that.

But his non-answer is a pretty good indication that Strzok did, in fact, file for the FISA. The instrument used was his ‘insurance policy’, the Steele Dossier. Paid for by the DNC and HRC campaign.

And it gets even better. This sordid little affair can’t be investigated by Mueller because his investigation is compromised by Strzok and the Dossier. An investigation can’t investigate itself.

While Mueller is out indicting people for violating the Logan Act, the biggest political scandal of the modern era is going on right under his nose and involves people within his own team of investigators.

He kept Strzok’s firing a secret, because he had to.

WASHINGTON — A draft statement former FBI Director James Comey prepared in anticipation of concluding the Hillary Clinton email case without criminal charges was heavily edited to change the "tone and substance" of the remarks, a Republican senator said Thursday.

Some of the edits proposed to the May 2016 draft, obtained by The Associated Press, appear to soften the gravity of the bureau's findings.

Comey, for instance, initially wrote that the FBI believed that Clinton and her aides were "grossly negligent" in their handling of classified information, language also contained in the relevant criminal statute.

But the text was edited to say they were simply "extremely careless" in their use of a personal email server, a phrase Comey adopted for his July 5 public announcement that the FBI would not be recommending charges.

Comey's ultimate statement also omitted language asserting that the "sheer volume" of information classified as secret at the time it was shared made it reasonable to believe that the former secretary of state and her aides were grossly negligent.

In addition, while Comey initially said it was "reasonably likely" that "hostile actors" had gained access to Clinton's email server, the text was edited to say that such an intrusion was "possible."

The original version noted that the FBI had worked with partners in the intelligence community to determine whether the server had been compromised. While it was unclear what significance this had, it was omitted from Comey's final text.

Though the FBI had not yet interviewed Clinton, then the Democratic candidate for president, at the time the statement was drafted, FBI officials had already determined that criminal charges were probably not warranted and had begun thinking about how to present that conclusion to the public.

Comey on May 2 circulated a proposed draft statement to other senior FBI officials laying out the basis for the eventual decision against recommending charges for Clinton and her aides.

Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, the Republican chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, said he had obtained from the FBI a copy of Comey's original draft with proposed line-by-line edits from other FBI officials. It's not clear from the document which official suggested what changes, though many were incorporated into Comey's July 5 announcement.

In a letter to FBI Director Chris Wray, Johnson said edits to Comey's original remarks "appear to change the tone and substance." He asked the FBI to identify the officials who had proposed the changes.

Editing ones writing is something that literate people know about. You deplorables can ask a literate person about how editing works.

good points..
The FBI is so corrupt I don't trust any of this

they can say what they want to - Mueller's investigation is compromised
 
not amongst the vast majority of the country. right wing nut jobs dont matter anymore.
(From The Hill)

Sixty-three percent of polled voters believe that the FBI has been resisting providing information to Congress on the Clinton and Trump investigations. This is a remarkable finding for an agency whose new head said a few days ago that the agency was in fine shape. No, it isn’t.
Fifty-four percent say special counsel Robert Mueller has conflicts of interest that prevent him from doing an unbiased job, also according to this month’s Harvard CAPS-Harris Poll
 
Just more b******* of course it's edited everything written is edited
I'd like to see the edits of the comments he was going to present re. the FBI probe into trump's collusion with Russia.

Oh..that's right...the FBI hid that from the public, as they pressed to paint Clinton in a negative light.

Turns out...Strzok was correct on all counts. trump had Russian operatives sitting in on classified briefings when he got the nomination. trump went on to try to destroy the FBI after the election, as Strzok predicted.

When will we see all the texts from the Benghazi committees? I'd like to know if there was any anti Clinton bias.

58% of Americans think Mueller is doing a fine job. https://www.washingtonpost.com/page...al-Politics/Polling/release_500.xml?tid=a_inl 62% suspect trump committed a crime.

Trump is trying to destroy the FBI lol?

He should get out of their way and let them do it themselves.
 
November 1st is just fine. Actually a more recent role would certainly show it Trump in worse shape and Mueller still respected but you got nothing except b*******

November 1st was six weeks ago—it’s ancient history relative to recent developments.

Noise is right: it’s the drip-drip that’s taking its toll. If Trump and ‘talk radio’ are doing anything they’re just calling attention to what is plainly obvious.
