Newly released internal FBI emails showed the agency's highest-ranking officials scrambling to answer to Hillary Clinton's lawyer in the days prior the 2016 presidential election, on the same day then-FBI Director James Comey sent a bombshell letter to Congress announcing a new review of hundreds of thousands of potentially classified emails found on former Rep. Anthony Weiner's laptop.

The trove of documents turned over by the FBI, in response to a lawsuit by the transparency group Judicial Watch, also included discussions by former FBI lawyer Lisa Page concerning a potential quid-pro-quo between the State Department and the FBI -- in which the FBI would agree to downgrade the classification level of a Clinton email in exchange for more legal attache positions that would benefit the agency abroad. There was no indication such a quid-pro-quo ever took place.

Naah, nothing to see here. No indication any such Quid Pro Quo took place. There was no purchase order nor shipping receipt. Not even a “thank you” note. Nor even a memo. Therefore it never occurred. Just like everything else.

Of all the things that President Trump has done, he made me realize that Clarice Starling was a completely fictional character and bore no resemblance to reality.

It really is. I pray for him and especially his family. He willingly takes the risks and they didn’t. Really. None of them knew it was this bad.

And how could anyone willingly have sex with Strzok.

“It’s a miracle that Donald Trump is even alive.”

Trump may have his own security, in addition to the secret service.

Agreed. I have thought the same for a long time now. Someday this whole thing will make a great movie... except it can’t be done by Hollywood of course.

Didn’t take place because she lost, maybe?

I think the faulty polling saved his life. They didnt expect him to win so no need for a high risk intervention.

Clintoon owns the FBI. Didn’t she have the FBI files of 900 people when she and Willie moved into the White House? The old hippy appears to have something on the FBI.

You may be right. I think something along those lines happened.

We averted an overthrow of the US government....at least I think we have. It may not be over yet.

Isn’t that the suggestion of a bribe criminal enough whether or not there was ever a follow through?

Look, it’s just this simple:

You don’t tug on superman’s cape.
You don’t spit into the wind.
You don’t pull the mask off that old Lone Ranger.
And you don’t investigate a Democrat.

You’re probably right; they never believed their full-court press in the media for Hillary would fail.

“He made me realize that Clarice Starling was a completely fictional character and bore no resemblance to reality.”

Clarice Starling is a composite of the valiant image FIB would like us to believe in. Today’s FIB is full of people a lot more like Hannibal Lecter, maybe worse. At least Hannibal Lecter only liked to eat adults who had low morals and ethics, or poor manners. The modern Luciferians, who have infiltrated all of the halls of power, apparently prefer innocent babies and children.

“And how could anyone willingly have sex with Strzok”

What I think is weird that we’ve NEVER seen any indication that these two were the “lovebirds” that it’s reported they are/were. I wonder if they’re using the lovebird word to cover for the extreme contact with each other when carrying on simple treasonous activities.

If there had been sex, love, or similar, I would expect that just one sexting text would’ve slipped out for all to see. I almost don’t believe it.
