Comey, Who Investigated Hillary Clinton For Using Personal Email For Official Business, Used His Personal Email For Official Business (buzzfeed.com)

An anonymous reader shares a report: Former FBI Director James Comey, who led the investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of personal email while secretary of state, also used his personal email to conduct official business, according to a report from the Justice Department on Thursday. The report also found that while Comey was "insubordinate" in his handling of the email investigation, political bias did not play a role in the FBI's decision to clear Clinton of any criminal wrongdoing.

The report from the office of the inspector general "identified numerous instances in which Comey used a personal email account (a Gmail account) to conduct FBI business." In three of the five examples, investigators said Comey sent drafts he had written from his FBI email to his personal account. In one instance, he sent a "proposed post-election message for all FBI employees that was entitled 'Midyear thoughts,'" the report states. In another instance, Comey again "sent multiple drafts of a proposed year-end message to FBI employees" from his FBI account to his personal email account.

This is more FUD perpetrated by the media who are in collusion with the Russians to distract from Mueller actually finding something about TRUMP. Trust us, there is a LOT of dirt on TRUMP but there is so much it must be removed first with a steam shovel. Which. Takes. Time.

And on a side note, I'm available for side work if any you needs to pump up their YouTube channels.

"As Secretary of State, she had the authority to declare what server are secure!"

Not true. The Sec of State only has classification authority over documents originating with the Dept of State. The classified info they found originated in other agencies.

I believe, if you look at the documents themselves, out of the 110 or so found, none originated on her server that were classified at the time of sending. The rest were classified after the fact. That still doesn't get around the fact that Hillary, Rice, and Powell all used non-governmental email servers. Powell, at least, should have known better, and was the one that started the practice.

Comey was a useful idiot for the others trying to undermine the Trump campaign and then overthrow the election.

And, of course, when you say "known facts", you mean "Faux News fantasy theories".

Re:Powell did too

Just a friendly reminder:
No one is going to believe any story on Fox News who doesn't already agree with you. You should try finding a more neutral source if you want to convince people.

No. Clinton lost herself the election.

That's not being fair to the Trump team. They pulled off an amazing upset and they deserve credit for that. And the MVP for the team was either Comey, Putin, or Assange.

What I don't understand about Comey is that he all but threw the election to Trump while panning Trump left and right.

It's easy to understand. Comey and the rest of the beltway didn't even suspect Trump might get elected. The purpose of that farcical reopen/close stunt was to clean the slate; Clinton would win the election and enter office with no outstanding investigative hangups.

That and the FBI was actually pretty pro-Trump.

Giuliani had sources inside the Clinton email investigation and was dropping spoilers, if Comey didn't make the announcement there's a real good change Giuliani would have announced it and used the scoop to claim that the FBI was engaged in a cover-up.
