"Irregularites"

[Zam-Zam]

That's what they're calling it:


Republicans on key congressional committees say they have uncovered new irregularities and contradictions inside the FBI’s probe of Hillary Clinton’s email server.

For the first time, investigators say they have secured written evidence that the FBI believed there was evidence that some laws were broken when the former secretary of State and her top aides transmitted classified information through her insecure private email server, lawmakers and investigators told The Hill.

That evidence includes passages in FBI documents stating the “sheer volume” of classified information that flowed through Clinton’s insecure emails was proof of criminality as well as an admission of false statements by one key witness in the case, the investigators said.

Uh ohhh!

Just the fact that Carlos Danger, who does not have a classified security clearance of any type, had classified emails on his laptop provided by his wife and Hilliary is prosecutable and iron clad proof of illegality.

I think that's a topic for another thread, should you care enough to start one.

It's amazing that the Republicans are still trying to beat this dead horse. Probably nobody in the world has ever had email habits and archives examined as thoroughly as Hillary Clinton. They put a massive team on it for the better part of the year and came up empty. Well, I suppose that with the FBI probe closing in on Trump, Republicans need something to steer the news-cycle elsewhere, so they'll leak hints about Clinton, secure in the knowledge that the deranged right-wingers will dutifully chow down on that nothing burger no matter how often it's served to them.

The FBI already investigated it thoroughly.

Keep in mind there's a reason that an independent investigator was appropriate in the case of Trump: some of the alleged wrongdoing was by the president, which calls into question the ability of those in his chain of command to investigate the matter. Moreover, Trump fired the head of the FBI when he resisted Trump's corrupt attempt to obstruct justice. There was just no way to expect the ordinary criminal investigative function to work normally in such a situation. By comparison, when it came to Hillary Clinton, we were talking about an investigation potentially implicating a private citizen with no role at all in the chain of command. It was a normal investigation that could be handled through normal means. And, as added assurance that there would be no cover-up, all the relevant Congressional committees with oversight powers were run by Republicans, as was the FBI itself. If we appoint independent prosecutors even in cases like that, we'd need to appoint them to investigate practically everything.

Did they?

The investigators also confirmed that the FBI began drafting a statement exonerating Clinton of any crimes while evidence responsive to subpoenas was still outstanding and before agents had interviewed more than a dozen key witnesses.

Clinton operative Peter Strzok was behind that initial statement, as well as rewording Comey's later statement to exonerate Clinton from illegal wrongdoing. Now that both Strzok and Comey have been righteously disgraced and removed, a proper investigation needs to be conducted with competent, non-partisan investigators who aren't on the Clinton payroll/blackmail list.

Yes. It was in all the papers. Surely you haven't forgotten already.

Yes, that's the smoking gun that confirms what a witch-hunt it was. From the start, anyone paying attention knew that it was extremely likely the FBI would find nothing indictable (notwithstanding the silly rubes here who kept telling us an indictment was imminent). After all, there was no evidence of criminal behavior to justify the investigation in the first place: it was driven by a political desire to comb through Clinton's emails looking for embarrassing material to use against her in the election. We knew long before that investigation started that Clinton was an unusually honest, or at least insanely careful, politician, since 25 straight years of witch-hunting of her had turned up nothing, despite rifling through every aspect of her life from a 1970s land deal to her time as Secretary of State. With a quarter century of obsessive investigation having come up empty, was there anyone gullible enough to imagine that this time would be different -- that they'd find something indictable in her emails? Of course not. The FBI knew they were pawns in a political game the Republicans were playing. They'd dutifully go through the motions, as they always did, but, like all thinking people, they had a very strong suspicion the witch hunt would find nothing, like all the others before it.

Nice spin. Bravo!

Ah yes, we can flash forward decades from now, to an old age home for wingers, where wingers sit around in their rocking chairs, babbling about Hillary’s emails.
