James Comey is a disgrace. Of that there is no doubt. He sees himself as the perennial boy scout who can do no wrong.
Who’s the “Davis” mentioned several times in the article?
Are they also investigating Brennan? It’s a national embarrassment that the CIA Director tried to influence the election.
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.
As in “Prosecution was declined” bad news?
It’s my understanding that this is just the first IG report, which deals with Hillary’s transgressions and the way the FBI handeled her investigation.
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.
“Davis also condemned Comey, who was fired by President Trump last spring, for writing a letter to Congress saying he was reopening the investigation less than two weeks before the 2016 presidential election.
“That’s a firing offense. His decision to write a letter 11 days before the election, whether it hurt Clinton or hurt Trump, was not consistent with 50 years of Justice Department policy to do nothing that might impact presidential elections,” Davis argued.”
___________________________
I believe that the ONLY reason that Comey wrote that letter and opened the “investigation” (if that’s what someone wants to call that charade) was in order to pre-empt the NYPD from releasing what it had from Weiner’s (non-classified, non-authorized) laptop that came from the State Dept., courtesy of the Wicked Witch of Chappequa. If Comey hadn’t written that letter, the information would have gone out, in an uncontrolled manner. As it is, Comey was able to pretend that some 50,000 emails were somehow miraculously reviewed by some magic software in a matter of days, and to then “clear” Hillary of any wrong-doing.

There is no respect for the rule of law and no equal justice under under the law in America!
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.
Worthless articles....no one knows yet.
“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.
Oh goody. Analysis of something that hasn’t been released yet...that always works well
Of course Flopping Aces has read the whole report but nobody else in the world has read it all.
