Discussion: Dubious Russian Intel Doc Spurred Comey To Speak On Clinton Emails Probe

Is that an affirmative, sir?

Jeebus, Comey. Just do your job diligently and straight ahead instead of veering off the straight path because you were worried that someone might think you weren’t going straight.

Basically, you untied your shoelaces, because you were worried they would come untied and trip you. Then you tripped on them.

I’ll never forget when this 'chicken *hit" ran to Congress, just before the election and cried the sky is falling and it’s HILLARY’S FAULT. …Whether or not he caused the election to turn out the way it did, or if it was Bernie’s supporter…or a mixtue…I’ll NEVER FORGIVE EITHER.

Clearly the Sanders supporter ARE no better than the Republicans…Bernie’s gang refused to look beyond the noses on their faces…EVEN when told of the outcome, WHICH is exactly the way they where told it would be… What Bernies gang doesn’t get is that HE was NEVER a Democrat, but you people wanted the Democrats to give it all to him. NOT going to happen…Bernie was unelectable on all levels, even the popular vote.

It would be really nice if the repubs in congress actually saw this as a problem. And then, I don’t know, maybe they could then DO THEIR JOBS! Provide a check on the COMPLETELY FRAUDULENT executive branch?? Sorry for shouting, but the Founding Fathers must be spinning in their graves.

The moment these E-Mails were ā€œleakedā€ the Clinton team should have been all over claiming that many were false and it would take months of work to figure out which were which. That’s more or less what Macron did and it worked very well for him. That should be the response of ANYONE whose Emails are hacked, by the way.

Feeling more than ā€œmildly nauseousā€.
I know this is extreme but this election cannot stand. If it does, the Russians and the incompetence of Comey decided the election. Not the voters.

Never seems to be an end to how revolting this whole thing is. For the good of the country Comey should say more about his prima donna moves in July AND we need a 2016 Election Commission.

Macron already knew what the game was. Thank dog, the French escaped our fate. Everyone here was caught off guard.

Well, not everyone.

This is just so freaking awful. Damn.

Edit: And if I remember correctly, our IC people warned the French what was happening.

Yes that is the real question. The Russian document wasn’t leaked by Wikileaks so how did the FBI end up with it? I smell Giuliani’s dirty hands on this.

It seems like some of these guys ( FBI and USAs) get played all too easily. I am remembering TommyK, a queens real estate developer ( like our president) who bribed a congressman and had a $100 million mortgage fraud scheme going which was known to the FBI and the Justice department. TommyK then paid a shoe repair guy to sign a document, which he then turned over to the Feds, because the document was an illegal arms sale to Iran. The Feds then treated TommyK like an asset, and got the judge in San Diego to seal up all the proceedings and treat TommyK like a hero, although they said they couldn’t tell the judge why he was so important. The whole thing eventually fell apart when the wife of the nephew that TommyK was blaming for bribing Cunningham, gave TommyK’s personal cell phone number to a reporter, who called him while he was in Greece, despite TommyK having turned over his passport(s) to the judge in San Diego.

Stuff like this makes these guys look really stupid.

I get that, but still since the hacking is illegal and anything could happen, it seems rather obvious to simply say that you need to verify the authenticity and that until you do, they should all be treated as dubious.

Wasn’t time and look what McConnell threatened.

McConnell. Traitorous filth. And that’s the best I can say about him. :grin:

Ya think that maybe one of our fine republican Senators will ask Comey about this when (or if?) he testifies in open hearing after Memorial Day?

I think you are making an invalid inferential link between the scolding Comey gave Clinton early in the year, and the letter he sent late october.

Regardless, Trump is still unfit and unqualified to be President of the United States as his actions before and since the inauguration has proven.

No, but a dem senator will.

This will be yet more evidence against the Trump criminals in the long run if, as is likely, this is the work of the Giuliani-connected corrupt NY FBI field office. I suspect the reason the FBI took this seriously is that this document came from within the FBI and so seemed as if it must be legitimate. They hadn’t yet realized the corruption within their ranks.

But this plot will be exposed along with everything else. And it is interesting that this is being leaked now isn’t it?

I’ve tried to watch her show, but that woman is a human Muppet. She looks like one and damn does she ever sound like a Muppet. She still thinks she’s on Fox and she’s still selling the same old bullshit. I switch to CNN now. Wolf Blitzer is infinitely more enjoyable. Think about that for a moment. Wolf. Blitzer.

@geofu54 I was thinking the same thing when I saw all this.
