What a massive cover-up. For this to go unpunished would be a stunning indictment of the American jurisprudence and rule of law.
Emails show FBI’s mad scramble to correct James Comey testimony about Huma Abedin
By Washington Examiner, June 20, 2019:
Story continues below advertisementEmails show FBI officials scrambling to correct the record after then-Director James Comey provided inaccurate testimony about a top aide to Hillary Clinton.
In Senate testimony on May 3, 2017, Comey said Huma Abedin made “a regular practice” of forwarding “hundreds and thousands” of emails from her boss to her husband and former Congressman Anthony Weiner, some of which were classified. Comey said Abedin did this so Weiner could print the emails out.
The FBI, which had seized Weiner’s laptop as part of a criminal investigation into his sexting with a high school student, found Comey’s assertion to be widely overstated, and on May 8 ProPublica reported that officials were working to correct the record.
In an email thread beginning at 6:34 a.m. on May 9, FBI officials frantically conversed about drafting a letter to Congress. The email thread, involving nearly a dozen officials, had the subject line, “Comey’s Testimony on Huma Abedin Forwarding Emails Was Inaccurate – ProPublica.”
At 8:56 a.m., Comey’s chief of staff, Jim Rybicki, sent the group a draft letter which said, “Below is a draft that has been reviewed by the Director. Please let me know your thoughts.”
In an afternoon response, Greg Brower, the FBI assistant director for the Office of Congressional Affairs, asked his colleagues to “Please review” the latest version of the draft letter.
On May 9, the finalized letter was sent to the Senate Judiciary Committee, the FBI stated that only a “small number” of the approximately 49,000 “potentially relevant” emails found on Weiner’s laptop were forwarded by Abedin.
Hours later, Trump fired Comey while he was in Los Angeles.
The emails, released with several redactions, were obtained by conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch in response to a May 21 court order by U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton to the FBI to process 13,000 pages of records. In a press release, the group said the emails show the bureau worked to “muddle” Comey’s message.
The FBI investigated Clinton’s use of an unauthorized server, hosted in the basement of her home in Chappaqua, N.Y., during her time as secretary of state from 2009 to 2013. Comey publicly recommended in 2016 that no charges be brought against Clinton, who was then a candidate for president, but admonished Clinton and her colleagues for being “extremely careless” in handling classified information.
The State Department is now conducting a review related to the handling of classified information, and so far has found 30 security incidents.

This says it all “What a massive cover-up. For this to go unpunished would be a stunning indictment of the American jurisprudence and rule of law.” But America now being what it is, just watch this go unpunished.
Comey is a disgusting, second-rate liar and schemer, but just watch him walk away because Conservatives lack the guts and brain to do anything more. America is going down the toilet at the rate of knots and the left – driven behind the scenes by Obama, Clinton and their treasonous cronies – are winning this war.

We’re repeatedly told that the FBI is the world’s premier law enforcement agency. “Only a mere handful at the top are corrupt, ” supporters tell us. I think not. Perhaps worse than the corrupt upper echelon is the incompetence of the agency e.g. the ignoring of advance warnings from within its own ranks of 9/11 and the Boston marathon bombers…

There may be a few who remain untainted by greed, power, corruption, politics and lawlessness. But, I suspect, they’re ‘keeping their heads down’ so as not to be noticed as honorable, ethical and patriotic.

and lying about the muslim missile that shot down TWA flight 007 over american soil, and barbecuing the non-muslim religious zealots at waco, and still maintaining that JFK did not have the top half of his skull blown off by a bullet that hit him from the front, or send 50 guys with fbi jackets and the local tv news monkeys at for a dawn raid to arrest a 70-year old friend of the president, and on and on. they are tool of the deep state, and should be disbanded. let the 50 states decide how to take care of law enforcement within their own state.

I think you mean TWA flight 800? Flight 007 was the Korean plane shot down over Russian air space…

Huma is an enemy gent, who passed on classified correspondence to her Muslim Brotherhood bosses, and planted the same in her wienie-wagging pervert of a husband’s laptop computer. But Shrillary must REALLY like her overbite in bed…..

Hillary always wanted Huma with her at night as the “Eau de Goat’s Ass” douche Huma used would drive Hillary into a sexual frenzy, causing her to scream out state secrets which Huma would record and send to her Muslim Brotherhood handlers.

Wow! You were listening in?
But I suspect Hillary regularly spilled her guts without being sexually prodded to do so. Greed was her motive. Sexual favors, merely, icing on the cake.
