FBI examining fake documents targeting Clinton campaign: sources
reuters ^ | 11/3/16 | Mark Hosenball

Posted on 11/03/2016 7:55:09 PM PDT by knak

The FBI and U.S. intelligence agencies are examining faked documents aimed at discrediting the Hillary Clinton campaign as part of a broader investigation into what U.S. officials believe has been an attempt by Russia to disrupt the presidential election, people with knowledge of the matter said. U.S. Senator Tom Carper, a Democrat on the Senate Homeland Security Committee, has referred one of the documents to the FBI for investigation on the grounds that his name and stationery were forged to appear authentic, some of the sources who had knowledge of that discussion said. In the letter identified as fake, Carper is quoted as writing to Clinton, “We will not let you lose this election,” a person who saw the document told Reuters. The fake Carper letter, which was described to Reuters, is one of several documents presented to the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the U.S. Department of Justice for review in recent weeks, the sources said. A spokeswoman for Carper declined to comment.

This is probably the counter-story going to be offered by the White House.

This sounds like something completely unrelated to the Weiner computer that the libs are trying to make related to the Weiner computer in an effort to obfuscate their POTUS nominee’s little problem. Let’s see if they run with this tomorrow.

Also, with one year of investigation by “White collar crime division” of the FBI into the Clinton Foundation this will not remove the mountain of evidence discovered against her.

“We will not let you lose this election,”

The commies and Nazis are starting to panic. If Trump wins, they could all end up in prison for their crimes.

Reuters. Its the Russians, the Russians, the Russians. After being discredited by the FBI. So the fact that they ran a sociopath liar has nothing to do with it, or all the scandals. DESPERATION LATELY?

Tomorrow is Friday. All the best releases have been coming out on Fridays. The last Friday till the election.

God Bless

Imaginably if the FBI is in disarray, there is an Obama-Hillary mole nexus within the FBI, with a crafted fake story specifically designed to be leaked to Democrat congress critters. Once in the hands of congress critters it can be handed over to compliant and Hillary-friendly MSM mouthpieces, and presto! generating instant fig leaf cover for Hillary and other Democrats from FBI email stories for the next few days.
