I think the author is predicting she will shriek about Comey again when the next IG installment is released.

<><> Susan Rice’s Benghazi lies,
<><> The Clinton Foundation ad infinitum,
<><> The Clintons’ Uranium 1 Deal,
<><> Hillary’s private server,
<><> Susan Rice’s Unmasking,
<><> John Podesta’s Russian deals,
<><> Huma and Cheryl Mills’ self-serving activities at State.
<><> The missing $6 billion at Hillary’s State Dept,
<><> Huma and Mills’ family pigging out at the State Dept trough,
<><> Sid Blumenthal’s haul from the State Dept,
<><>Amb Joe Wilson (Valerie Plame’s hubby) helping himself to the State Dept cookie jar,
<><> Obama’s Foundation looting State of $100 million “to teach Muslim girls in Morocco,”
<><> Secy Hillary’s Millenium Challenge Corp slush fund.
<><> Obama and Hillary’s Third World mentality-— using the govt apparat against American citizens

This is my guess. The Horowitz report will echo Hillary's criticisms of Comey: (1) Comey was supposed to simply exonerate her, not give a long-winded explanation for doing so and (2) Comey was supposed to sit on the Weiner laptop Hillary emails until after the election.

I suspect those who think Horowitz will come down hard on Comey for the way he failed to properly investigate and prosecute her, i.e, not using a grand jury, letting her destroy evidence, handing out immunity like candy, etc., will be disappointed.

Yup. The one criminal referral from the IG so far was about McCabe leaking an Obama administration stand down order of a Clinton Foundation investigation. It was a leak that was harmful to the Deep State. It wasn't even about what McCabe did to Trump.

Subsequent reports will be coming out dealing with the FBI’s role (Strzok, Page, Comey, Rosenstein, McCabe) re: the phony dossier, filing a false affidavit to the FISA court etc.

Perhaps a year from now? I believe the IG investigation of the FISA abuses just began in late March.

"But this report will also breathe life into the moribund Hillary Clinton, who will stagger to her unsteady feet and once again shriek that the election was stolen from her. Just having to listen to her voice is punishment for America. "

There is no respect for the rule of law and no equal justice under under the law in America!

And Lanny Davis forgot to mention that the NYPD was threatening to release the data was that McCabe, Comey’s #2 man and Clinton’s paid agent, sat on the evidence for weeks. Had Hillary’s agent not delayed the case, there would not have been a “right before the election” issue for Davis to lie and whine about.

Maybe Lanny Davis, or Lackey Davis as we here on FR like to call him. A Clinton butt boy.

Good question. What a poorly written article.

Remember, the OIG’s purview is allegations of misconduct by FBI and DOJ employees. There are other ongoing investigations that are focused on other things, including the Clinton Foundation, Hillary’s private email server, etc.

The OIG report will lay the foundation for further actions by the DOJ, if warranted.

“come down hard on Comey for the way he failed to properly investigate and prosecute her“

Comey was not a prosecutor.

While it pains me to say it it would seem no one in the Trump administration is interested in doing anything about any of that crap either.

"That is good news imo. She will remind everyone again why she lost."

I'm surprised that Hillary hasn't blamed Colin Powell yet for her loss. After all, she told the FBI during her interview that it was Colin Powell who advised her to use a personal email account.

“Comey had no business passing a judgment as to whether Hillary Clinton should face prosecution”

Sessions said when heard Comey say that it hit him like a thunderclap.

Of course Flopping Aces has read the whole report but nobody else in the world has read it all.

“Are they also investigating Brennan?”

The Department of Justice IG only investigates within the DOJ - Comrade Brennan was in CIA.

A strong argument for the need to appoint a Special Prosecutor - the scandal and abuse crosses many Departments and Agencies (like State Department and CIA), as well as the White House.

Funny, I can remember the Scout Law word for word, but the Orders of The Sentry from Boot Camp, which I NEVER thought I would forget, evade me!

I can almost do the Manual of Arms from memory!
