FBI releases Hillary Clinton email investigation documents

[DonViejo]

Source: The Washington Post

The FBI on Friday released a detailed report on its investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server while she was secretary of state, as well as what appears to be a summary of her interview with agents, providing the most thorough look yet at the probe that has dogged the campaign of the Democratic presidential nominee.

The documents released total 58 pages, though large portions and sometimes entire pages are redacted.

FBI Director James B. Comey announced in July that his agency would not recommend criminal charges against Clinton for her use of a private email server. Comey said that Clinton and her staffers were “extremely careless” in how they treated classified information, but investigators did not find they intended to mishandle such material. Nor did investigators uncover exacerbating factors — like efforts to obstruct justice — that often lead to charges in similar cases, Comey said.

The FBI turned over to several Congressional committees documents related to the probe and required they only be viewed by those with appropriate security clearances, even though not all of the material was classified, legislators and their staffers have said.

3. This could have been released as early as Wednesday. The fact that it was dropped the Friday before

Labor day is suspect.

6. It's called "Taking Out the Trash"

Friday news dumps are usually full of the garbage that a party doesn't want scrutinized in the press.

But I suspect you already knew this, NWCorona. (wink)

[NWCorona]

8. Yup!

[PatSeg]

4. This is pretty much all they do these days

and take lots of vacations. Pathetic.

[MattP]

5. Comey is suspect

He should have recused himself beacuse his past history with the whitewater fiasco

[MadDAsHell]

7. Hopefully her answers to the FBI jived with her public statements...

The last thing we need is accusations that she changed her story once under oath.

[newrandomuser]

20. She never was under oath

but they say it's illegal to lie to an FBI agent

take that for what's it worth

[MadDAsHell]

21. Good point, assumed she was under oath, thanks for the clarification! nt

[yallerdawg]

9. Unprecedented.

More of that Hillary "higher/double standard."

Comey better be looking forward to retirement.

[Sancho]

10. Was just discussed on CNN...nothing there...

...FBI complained that Hillary's "training" was inadequate...and there was too much discussion of the drone program that everyone knew about anyway.

That's it.

Comey is an ass.

It doesn't matter what your training was...if you did what the training called for at the time it's over. NONE of the damn emails was marked classified. Comey knows it, and that's the bottom line.

At the time they were sent, all the emails were as secret as a Betty Crocker cookie recipe!! All were public documents and that was that...you can't put the toothpaste back in the tube.

No "questioning" or "interviewing" of Hillary or her staff change the fact that none were MARKED at the time. Saying that they "should have been classified" or whatever is irrelevant after the fact.

Just another witch hunt.

11. Your post sums it up well. Thank you.

[OKNancy]

12. I've read some of the FBI papers. Hillary looks good actually

This particular news will die quickly since it exonerates Hillary.

ETA: for example: "Clinton never deleted, nor did she instruct anyone to delete, her email to avoid complying with" FOIA.

13. A shame...

That Pres. Obama didn't replace Comey IF he had the chance, because it's apparent to me at least that Comey has grown more politically leaning right with the way he's recently been playing this MANUFACTURED Clinton email situation.

14. This is troubling to say the least

15. Let the riot begin

[TeamPooka]

18. So you're going to post this link in every thread including the one you started on it?

Hmmmmmmmmmmm

[Wibly]

19. No, I'm not

I posted it under General Discussion and under my own thread.
Why are you exaggerating?
I also did not say I agreed with the post. I simply suggested the contents could pose a problem. I was alerting Clinton supporters to a potential problem.
In return I have been showered with abuse, exaggerations like yours, and blocking.
It does not bode well for America or Clinton if this is the way you all are going to react to dissent.

16. LOL...

Only in the MSM that will fabricate any "story" to keep people tuning in and watching the ads they sell.
