Bombshell report - DOJ, FBI Clinton Email Probe - 7 highlights

[Rob Larrikin]

Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz's bombshell report on the DOJ and FBI's actions during the Hillary Clinton email probe takes particular aim at key figures who, until now, have mostly escaped official censure for their conduct while in office.

Some of the key takeaways from the report include:

1. New texts between FBI lovers Strzok and Page were 'disappointing' and cast a shadow over the integrity of the entire Clinton email probe

2. Five unnamed FBI employees -- including one lawyer who later worked on the Mueller probe -- are under scrutiny for anti-Trump bias

3. Investigators didn't give a good reason for not pursuing laptops and cellphones belonging to Clinton's senior aides

4. Despite Clinton connections, former Assistant Attorney General Peter Kadzik and former Deputy Director Andrew McCabe didn't fully recuse themselves

5. 'Insubordinate' Ex-FBI Director James Comey repeatedly violated policy and inaccurately described the legal situation surrounding Clinton's emails

6. Former Obama Attorney General Loretta Lynch made errors in judgment during the Clinton probe

7. FBI agents' actions surrounding the DOJ/FBI interview of Hillary Clinton were 'inappropriate' and created appearance of bias

Horowtiz's report also outlines new information concerning apparent bias at the FBI and DOJ that he says undermines the public trust in each agency.

​

Democrats were very sloppy because they assumed that Clinton would win, and this will cost them heavily in the next election.

Congrats, you're only like the sixth person to make another thread on this.

Don't quit your day job in pursuit of a career in rocket science - you won't make it.

6th bombshell report, that isn't a bombshell! Another re-hash of things the public has known for months if not over a year!

No criminal charges or indictments!
Comey ruined Hillary's election!
No evidence of political partisanship as it relates to the investigations!

But don't let any of that stop the propaganda Larrkin. Maybe you can toast this "bombshell of nothing" with some Vodka w/Putin and Kim Jong, Trumps two best buddies, while you're at it.

Patience. You'll get your charges and indictments.

Do you really believe that?

It looks to me as if nothing is going to be done about this beyond some typical lip service and a few token gestures of non significance.

You might be right. On the other hand, if Trump were to strike now the media (Fake News) would have all that time between now and the next election to cover and smooth it over, so that most Democrats would barely remember it. If I were Trump I'd tell my team to build all the evidence against them and strike much closer to the election. I think in this case timing is everything because Fake News are ready with their big blanket to cover it immediately. The closer it is to the election the more easily the voters will remember it.

I really am puzzled as to why Trump has not order all the documents released to congress. If he ordered it today it would still take a month to get into the hands of Congress and then another month to start suponeas. It would take months before any charges got filed and Congress has a recess coming up. That means nothing happens until after the midterms and if control flips to the dems there won't be any hearings. Imo Trump is blowing it. He has already waited too long.

Remember how the Dems and their Fake News pals (NBC) held onto the 2005 Access Hollywood tape? Guess when they gave it to the Washington Post. Two days before the second 2016 presidential debate between Trump and Clinton.

If they're going to do something the question is when. Maybe before the midterms. Maybe before the next Presidential debates. Maybe just before the election. One thing is for sure, as soon as they do it Fake News will be working 24/7/365 to cover the issue up and even a week is a long time in politics.

Patience. You'll get your charges and indictments.

So you agree that based on the evidence of the years long investigation, they found no evidence of partisanship affecting their work at the FBI as related to these matters?

Or are you gonna tell us that we should reject that based on "Nothing" because it doesn't' fit your narrative, but we should ACCEPT these "predicted" later charges as accurate, because it fits your narrative?

How do you brush your teeth in the morning.

Its astonishing how forking pathetic these people are.

And just for good measure:

The conspiracy theories surrounding FBI agent Peter Strzok may have just taken a big blow
Right-wing media believes he plotted against Trump. Turns out he might’ve helped get him elected.

Looks like the whackjobbian claims of "DEEP STATE CONSPIRACY!!!!" were bull**** after all.

The FBI is thoroughly infested with Lefties working for the Democrats. That was obvious many months ago.

Other than the fact that there's no credible evidence for that and it's utterly unmoored from what rational people understand as 'reality', spot on!

To tutor you on the subject would take years and even then you'd probably refuse to accept it, so you're on you're own.

Thanks for proving my point.

Good luck with your magical thinking!

Sure, that's why Comey blew Hillary's presidential campaign and hid the Russia stuff for Trump?

Aw, the IG report shut down the Right Wing Narrative, whatever are you gonna do! Cry and take your ball and go home I see. See ya later Larrkin. Until then, we got it, and we'll let you know how the Mueller investigation goes. And the Cohen investigation. And the legal action against Trump foundation. And the myriad of ethics and legal requests that are slowly making their way through the various authoritative bodies.

 

[Excon]

What Comey did is unlikely to have affected anyone who was going to vote for her. The woman lost on her own.

, the IG report shut down the Right Wing Narrative, whatever are you gonna do!

You may think the "summary" has shut down the narrative, but the actual Report clearly has not.
The two read differently. It's reads like IG didn't write the Summary.



As Gowdy has said; Strzok's bias and animus was so high that you can't remove the taint.

​

 

[Mach]

And russian propoganda, with the help of the right wing media. Forgot that one.

As to you claiming you know, without any evidence, that it didn't affect the election, is absurd.

You may think the "summary" has shut down the narrative, but the actual Report clearly has not.
The two read differently. It's reads like IG didn't write the Summary.

So you can't comprehend the IG report therefore without any evidence, you believe the conclusion was written by someone else, and no one has caught this.

Wow. How is the air up there in the Mothership?

 

[Excon]

No. It is unlikely that anyone was influenced not to vote for Hillary or Trump by the effort sew discord. I have seen no such evidence of any people being influence to vote otherwise. Have you?

As to you claiming you know,

Oy vey! A statement saying "unlikely" is not a statement of fact or a statement indicating a person knows.
Your comments are way off the mark Mach.

As to you claiming you know, without any evidence, that it didn't affect the election, is absurd.

Apparently you like reading into what a person says instead of just responding to what they actually said. :doh
My comment is based on a lack of evidence to support such an assertion.

So you can't comprehend the IG report therefore without any evidence, you believe the conclusion was written by someone else, and no one has caught this.

Not only have your comments been off the mark, now they are way out in left field with bs.
"It's reads like (the) IG didn't write the Summary." is not saying I do not think he wrote it. It is a statement saying I do not know because the body and Summary read differently.
Are you saying it is not a possibility?
Or are you saying you only read the summary and do not know yourself?

Wow. How is the air up there in the Mothership?

Yep! Your comments are still out in left field.
Come back when you are willing to actually make rational comments.

Thanks for pointing to the video. It brings up some interesting points. For instance, at the 4:50 mark:

[April 26, 2918]

Comey: “When I saw the text I was deeply disappointed in them, but I never saw any bias…”

[Jun 14, 2018]

Bret Baier: Any bias?

Gowdy: Well he’s not reading the same text I’m reading… I mean, Peter Strzok said that the vote should be one hundred million to zero. He can’t think of a single solitary American that should vote for Donald Trump to be President. He said he’ll stop it as a candidate… he talked about impeachment once he won. Actually Director Comey unwittingly just proved the point of the question you asked him on follow up; “Would you have kept him on the investigation had you known what you know now,” and he said, “No.” Okay, why not? Because bias is that insidious, it is that pervasive, it colors your ability to do what you need the FBI to do, which is to be fair and fact-centric, so of course you’re gonna fire him the day you learn – in my head I go back – when did you start working on the case? That’s when you should have been fired.”
