Discussion: Grassley: 'I Assume' FBI Could Leak Clinton<span style="line-height: 1em;"> Email Investigation

I heard from a friend in Iowa that Grassley will be in assisted living first of the new year. Something about not being able to complete anything.

I assume if the FBI knew Chuck Grassley (R-IA) was a pedophile they would prosecute. Unless of course there was political interference.

"I wouldn’t be encouraging it because if it’s a violation of law, I can’t be encouraging a violation of law,ā€ Grassley said.

As with Dumpsters ā€œI hope there is not violence during ______ā€ comments what Chuckie said is inciting someone to do just what he is advocating and he has come right out and said ā€œfor political reasonsā€. They don’t even try to dog whistle any more.

As soon as Grassley follows the constitution i’ll vote for him.

Well, heck, I just assumed Grassley is a pedophile and that the FBI is already investigating him. Unless political interference, of course–which would be illegal, right Senator Might-be-a-Pedophile?

WTF?

Talk about begging the question.

He assumes the FBI will violate the law if some phantom ā€œpolitical interferenceā€ gets in the way of a prosecution the GOP starts with as a given, and from which work backwards.

These scumbags literally have no concept of ethics, the law or good governance. They project their own vapid and venial tendencies onto their political opponents then advocate people break the law to justify their own ethical bankruptcy.

Comey is a top notch FBI director who stood up to the Bush Admin. Top notch, probably the best ever. Hillary will have no need or desire to fire him.

Can you please clarify to what you are referring on ā€œpolitical tricksā€? Oh, not on GOP political tricks, I am well aware of them. I am referencing Comey ā€œassistingā€.

I know! It’s like you can’t turn on the TV anymore without seeing Sanders going on and on endlessly about Clinton’s emails. It’s as if there are no issues to discuss, just Clinton’s emails this, Clinton’s emails that. It never stops!

TRANSLATION: ā€œThere’s nothing there, so me and my fellow conservative flunkies in Congress and at the FBI will continue leaking nonsense to make it appear that there is.ā€

As odious as Grassley is, I think his bottom line is correct: that if there is no indictment, there will be some (Clinton-hating) FBI agents who will - demanding annonymity - ā€œleakā€ to friendly news outlets that they had the goods on HC, but the corrupt political bosses squelched the prosecution. I suspect that the HC campaign is making the same assumption. When there was all the talk about the number of agents working the case, I thought the press was missing the most important point: the more agents working on individual aspects of the case, the less any of them would know about the whole picture and therefore would be less likely to be able to credibly second guess the (almost certain) decision not to recommend the indictment of anyone, let alone HC.

What about political interference getting in the way of exoneration?
