...please explain your allegation that "the FBI cabal... hates Clinton." Why do you think there is a coordinated effort within the FBI?

On the other hand, this mess with Director Comey and the stupid investigation into Hillary Clinton's emails is a ridiculous distraction.

If not we're fine but we still need to find a way to get ahead of Wikileaks and the FBI Investigation

The most serious part of the F.B.I.’s investigation has focused on the computer hacks that the Obama administration now formally blames on Russia. That investigation also involves numerous officials from the intelligence agencies. Investigators, the officials said, have become increasingly confident, based on the evidence they have uncovered, that Russia’s direct goal is not to support the election of Mr. Trump, as many Democrats have asserted, but rather to disrupt the integrity of the political system and undermine America’s standing in the world more broadly.


Goals which would only be fully achieved with the election of Trump. Duh.

Mr. Stone derided the accusations and those raised by Michael J. Morell, a former C.I.A. director and a Clinton supporter, who has called Mr. Trump “an unwitting agent of the Russian Federation.” In an article on the conservative news site Breitbart, Mr. Stone denied having links to Russians and called the accusations “the new McCarthyism.”
