    Comey’s FBI Was Protecting The Legitimacy Of The Presumed Clinton Presidency .....

    James Comey and the FBI decided to come clean on Anthony Weiner's laptop because they thought they were protecting a Hillary Clinton presidency.


    In late October of 2016 James Comey knew Donald Trump’s candidacy was as dead as a doornail. That must be distinctly understood or nothing wonderful can come from the story I am going to relate. Time soothes the edges of old emotions. We forget the shock of that election night. Almost two years now of articles and TV takes, even books, make Trump’s election seem understandable, even sometimes inevitable.

    But that’s not how it was then. When FBI director Comey and the FBI dropped their late October Anthony Weiner surprise, they did so fully confident that Hillary Clinton would win. What we now know for certain from the Department of Justice inspector general report that came out Thursday is that the FBI chose to disclose the Weiner email fiasco to protect a Clinton presidency, a foregone conclusion, from potential claims from Trump that the FBI had rigged the election.

    Whatever acid trip Comey was on that makes him feel only now that somehow this reality must have unconsciously affected his decision-making, the IG report presents much more self-aware choices. Take this testimony from Comey himself. The norm he talks about is not revealing information that can affect an election in the days leading up to it:

    And so I said okay, those are the doors. One says speak, the other says conceal. Let’s see what’s behind the speak door. It’s really bad. We’re 11 days from a presidential election. Given the norm I’ve long operated under, that’s really bad. Open the second one. Catastrophic. And again this is something reasonable people can disagree about, but my view was to conceal at that point given all I had said would be catastrophic. Not just to the Bureau, but beyond the Bureau

    What does “beyond the bureau” mean? Well, the IG report gives us a good idea what “beyond” means here. It means consequences to a Hillary Clinton presidency. This just becomes clearer and clearer as you read the report. This wasn’t just Emo Twitter Comey having a lot of threads in his old Duder head, it was a calculated approach by the FBI to protect Clinton’s presidency from claims that the FBI rigged her election. That was the big fear at the time: When Clinton obviously wins, will Trump accept the results, or foment a revolt based on spurious claims of election-rigging. Remember?

    We no longer have to wonder if such political concerns influenced the FBI. Former FBI general counsel James A. Baker spelled it out in the IG report: “If she’s been elected president of the United States, then Donald Trump would say, oh my God, these people knew this beforehand and didn’t say anything. This is a rigged system. This is, this, these people intentionally hid that until after the election so they could get her elected and, and thwart me.”

    So what we now know, despite the IG report’s claims otherwise, is that politics played a significant role in the FBI’s decision to reveal the renewed investigation into Weiner’s laptop just days before the election. It was a calculated risk. Might it hurt Hillary? Sure, but she can’t lose, so better to protect against potential damage after her slam-dunk election passes through the hoop. Then election night happened. Hoo boy.

    Comey released his information about Weiner’s laptop for one main reason: to protect the future Clinton administration. We had a hint of this before. Now we can see it is blatantly true. It’s a disgraceful misuse of his office. The only solace we can take is that karma and irony are alive and well. And Trump’s election has exposed Comey’s perfidy......snip~

    Thas Right.....it was all about protecting a Hillary Presidency that they thought was in the bag. You knew this would be highlighted from the IG report.

    Yet the Cult of Leftness tried to get out early and start talking about how the FBI was trying to help Trump. Natually the left would make up the accusation knowing that the real truth is the FBI and Comey were doing what they can to protect a Hillary Presidency.

    That she lost is why we are discovering all of this. If she would have won. All of this would have been covered over and Mum would have been the word. Although some would still went with Ma Barker. What say ye?

    It certainly explains why Clinton had a mental meltdown when she found out she had lost the election.

    Broke Brained Crooked Hillary. Her brain has been broken for years.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    Yeah she came out tweeting about the emails. Then people started hitting her up about her emails being breached. Then someone mentioned why dont you talk about how you didn't have any classified emails again.

    All of a sudden Ma Barkers Twitter account went mute.
