http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/11/01/flood-leaks-turns-coverage-against-comey-but-impact-on-clinton-unclear.htmlAs an old Justice Department reporter, I can tell you that Ive never seen anything like the torrent of leaks coming out of the FBI and DOJ. And that reflects dissension within the department and the bureau over how this should have been handled.
Comey went public despite his own agents not knowing what is in the many thousands of emails found on Anthony Weiners laptop, according to sources cited by the media. His laptop appears to have been backing up data from his wife Huma Abedins phone, according to sources cited by the media. Comey sent his letter to the Hill over the objections of Attorney General Loretta Lynch, who felt he should stick with department guidelines and not comment on a criminal probe so close to the election, according to sources cited by the media.
So they are duplicates. All this bullshit for nothing.

(1,727 posts)The entire nation, the voters, will need to function as a jury. Comey needs to come clean or resign, or both.
After the election, normal legal processes must then try to function as they are supposed to function.
