2016 Postmortem
Showing Original Post only (View all)BREAKING: Newsweek's Eichenwald story just released on FBI investigation of emails. [View all]
Excerpt:
The night of the disclosure (Comey's letter to Congress - kstewart33), Newsweek reported that the emails were from as many as three accountsone through Yahoo, one on the domain clintonemail.com, and one from an account Abedin used in support of one of Weiners campaigns for office. Last week, Newsweek learned that that account was through Gmail. In other words, Abedins personal account provided by the State Department for non-classified emails was not involved. Abedin, who did not know Clinton used a private server for her emails, told the bureau in an April interview that she used the account on the clintonemail.com domain only for issues related to the secretarys personal affairs, such as communicating with her friends. For work-related records, Abedin primarily used the email account provided to her by the State Department.
From the information obtained that first day by Newsweek, it was already clear that, because of the accounts involved, almost all of the documents were going to be duplicates or personal emails. In other words, from the opening moments of this inquiry, there were people in government who already knew what the outcome of this new FBI effort would be, yet it took the bureau another nine days to confirm those details.[div]

Yeah, I can see how Guilani came to the conclusion that an indictment was likely. Not.

I totally agree. I would fire Comey 11/9 but then again, Pres. O knows more than I

It would be good just to have some facts out there and some protocol explanation.

That explains Comey saying he had not seen them, otherwise the dirty trick couldn't go operational.

I honestly don't think Comey cares. Esp if he was offered a job in trade.
