A bit of a bombshell - Comey and the FBI

| No Comments

I wonder what they have on him - it looked for a while like FBI Director James B. Comey finally grew a pair and was standing up to the Clinton machine - now this from The Washington Post:

FBI Director Comey says agency won’t recommend charges over Clinton email
FBI Director James B. Comey notified key members of Congress Sunday afternoon that after reviewing all of the newly discovered Hillary Clinton emails the agency stands by its original findings against recommending charges.

Comey wrote that investigators had worked “around the clock” to review all the emails found on a device used by former congressman Anthony Weiner that had been sent to or from Clinton and that “we have not changed our conclusions expressed in July.”

Excuse me - you were able to review 650,000 emails in seven days? That is 64 emails per second 24/7. Even if you put a team of 50 people on it, they would each have to call up, read and decide on 77 emails per minute. A bit more:

Comey had upended the campaign just over a week ago, when he alerted Congress that new emails had been located that were related to Clinton’s use of a private server as secretary of state.

The emails came from a laptop owned by Weiner, the estranged husband of top Clinton aide Huma Abedin, and had been seized by the FBI on Oct. 3 as part of an investigation into lewd text messages Weiner is alleged to have sent to a 15-year-old girl.

Comey had come under fire for inserting the FBI into the campaign’s final days with the announcement. Department of Justice policy discourages the agency from taking steps in days before an election, to avoid the perception that the FBI is trying to the influence the outcome of the vote.

A spokesman for the FBI declined to comment beyond Comey’s letter.

I wonder what form Comey's upcoming suicide wiill take - two bullets to the back of the head? That is an Arkancide for sure.
