-- The MSM are putting forth rumors based on sources that there will be no recommendation for indictment by the FBI. --

On that count, they are almost certainly going to be found correct. The FBI can have probable cause ten times over, enough evidence to make a slam dunk case, and it still does not issue any recommendation to the prosecutor.

-- Why is Comey staging this press conference? --

To further politicize the law. As you know, the results of FBI investigations are "secret" from the FBIs point of view.

An interesting development, just the same. We'll know in a few hours, what the man had to say.

Comey is compromised because his boss is compromised. It’s so obvious. Let a grand jury decide. That’s the only honest course of action.

My personal guess is that Comey will just reassure us that the FBI conducts its investigations without being influenced by political pressures. He will discount the Lynch-Clinton meeting and dismiss MSM reports that the FBI has reached any final conclusions. They will go where the evidence leads them.

I suspect that Lynch forced him to have this press conference. She won't show up this time as she has on other occasions. This is all about reassuring the public that the FBI is not politicized. Wink, wink.
