The FBI cannot act with a sense of urgency because of an election. They have to act outside of it. The director knows full well that Clinton could and likely would can his ass if she's elected. Bill canned an FBI director for using the airplane for personal use. That was combing through documents to find a reason to fire someone. Bill has a lot of connections in Washington, the FBI has a black eye because of this scandal (and that's what it is) but they want to give the appearance of due diligence, nothing will be done. Nothing is ever done.

Wouldn't Trump can his ass as well? He's already said how Comey was a total insider and a rigger.

Suddenly Trump respects Comey very much. Comey's career is over regardless. This is malpractice at its finest.

I would like to see something big coming out of this. If this is a flop then Comey needs his ass handed to him.

WHY FBI DIRECTOR MADE CLINTON EMAIL ANNOUNCEMENT NOW

BY MICHELE GORMAN (http://www.newsweek.com/authors/michele-richinick) AND MATTHEW COOPER (http://www.newsweek.com/authors/matthew-cooper) ON 10/28/16 AT 2:40 PM

Updated | Why did FBI Director James Comey shock Washington on Friday with an announcement that the FBI “has learned of the existence of emails” related to Hillary Clinton’s private email server, and what does it mean?

The truth is Comey didn’t have a choice. Because the new information followed his sworn testimony about the case, Comey was obligated by Department of Justice rules to keep the relevant committees apprised.

Under oath Comey had stated that the bureau had completed its review. Once he learned that there were new emails that required examination, Comey had to notify Congress that he had to amend his testimony because it was no longer true.

Comey’s letter to congressional committee chairs doesn’t say his agents have discovered new witnesses or documents suggesting a criminal act occurred. Rather, he only suggests that evidence that has not yet been examined needs to be reviewed because it is relevant to the case.

There’s also a political dimension. Had Comey not told Congress and it emerged after the election that new materials had come into its possession, the director and his entire agency’s credibility might have been questioned.

In his letter, Comey did not use the phrase being touted by Republicans that the case had been reopened. Technically it was never closed. Nor did he signal at all about the importance or unimportance about the emails.

“In connection with an unrelated case, the FBI has learned of the existence of emails that appear to be pertinent to the investigation,” he said in his letter (https://twitter.com/jaketapper/status/792050013555810304/photo/1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) to the chairs. “Although the FBI cannot yet assess whether or not this material may be significant, and I cannot predict how long it will take us to complete this additional work, I believe it is important to update you.”

On the other hand, Comey did not offer any indication from whence the new evidence comes. By his omission he’s left a country in suspense. Later in the day, news reports, unconfirmed by Newsweek, indicated that the emails were found in the course of an investigation of Anthony Weiner, the former New York congressman who is married to Clinton aide Huma Abedin, and that they were found on a device of Weiner’s. He and Abedin announced a marital separation this summer after he was revealed to be exchanging lewd photos and emails with women, one of whom was reportedly underaged.

Republicans were jubilant on Friday, seeing the Comey letter as something that could save the flailing Donald Trump campaign for president. The GOP nominee himself heaped praise on the FBI director after castigating him since his summer announcement that the bureau had not recommended a criminal charge be brought against Clinton.

“I have great respect for the fact that the FBI and the Department of Justice are now willing to have the courage to right the horrible mistake that they made,” Trump said at a rally in New Hampshire early Friday afternoon. “This was a grave miscarriage of justice that the American people fully understood. And it is everybody’s hope that it is about to be corrected.”

House Speaker Paul Ryan called for an end to Clinton receiving classified briefings.

Clinton’s campaign chairman, John Podesta, called on Comey to immediately release more details about the new evidence.

This article has been updated to indicate that news reports say the Clinton emails were uncovered during the investigation of Anthony Weiner and that Podesta has pushed back against Comey.

Comey is damned if he do, damned if he doesn't. He could be just covering his ass and over-compensating for all of the "rigged" talk. If he knows they have something (but can't tell if it's significant or trivial) does he take a chance that it explodes after the election and everyone accuses him of holding onto information and rigging the election for Hillary? If he tells everyone now that they're still investigating at least he covers his ass and no one can accuse him of rigging anything. Then of course the flip side is that this is all nothing and he just swayed a few voters to Trump's side which in case if Hillary wins the election she's going to can his ass anyway :lol

The timing of this latest revelation couldn’t be worse for the Clinton campaign, with just 11 days left until the Election. Miller’s Twitter rant continued with the following:

Comey refused to even tell Congress if FBI was investigating Trump camp for Russia hack, but regular updates on Clinton are apparently A-ok.




https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/786326769754312704/hA9BxOL__bigger.jpgMatthew Miller @matthewamiller (https://twitter.com/matthewamiller)


I wrote a piece in July on why Comey's public comments about Clinton were such an inappropriate abuse of power. 1/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/james-comeys-abuse-of-power/2016/07/06/7799d39e-4392-11e6-8856-f26de2537a9d_story.html?utm_term=.e52be523a140 … (https://t.co/G8croz4qWZ)

He flagrantly violated DOJ rules with his press conference. Then went on to break new ground discussing details of the case to Congress...2/







https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/786326769754312704/hA9BxOL__bigger.jpgMatthew Miller @matthewamiller (https://twitter.com/matthewamiller)


Followed by quickly releasing FBI 302's, something they rarely do, and which I doubt they will do for future high-profile cases. 3/







https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/786326769754312704/hA9BxOL__bigger.jpgMatthew Miller @matthewamiller (https://twitter.com/matthewamiller)


Each time, he either violated or seriously stretched DOJ rule & precedent. Press conference was the original sin, & it begat the rest. 4/



https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/786326769754312704/hA9BxOL__bigger.jpgMatthew Miller @matthewamiller (https://twitter.com/matthewamiller)



But today's disclosure might be worst abuse yet. DOJ goes out of its way to avoid publicly discussing investigations close to election. 5/




https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/786326769754312704/hA9BxOL__bigger.jpgMatthew Miller @matthewamiller (https://twitter.com/matthewamiller)

Not just public discussion either. Often won't send subpoenas or take other steps that might leak until after an election is over...6/







https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/786326769754312704/hA9BxOL__bigger.jpgMatthew Miller @matthewamiller (https://twitter.com/matthewamiller)


Why? Because voters have no way to interpret FBI/DOJ activity in a neutral way. Who is the target of an investigation? What conduct? 7/





https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/786326769754312704/hA9BxOL__bigger.jpgMatthew Miller @matthewamiller (https://twitter.com/matthewamiller)


This might be totally benign & not even involve Clinton. But no way for press or voters to know that. Easy for opponent to make hay over. 8/




(https://twitter.com/matthewamiller)https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/786326769754312704/hA9BxOL__bigger.jpgMatthew Miller @matthewamiller (https://twitter.com/matthewamiller)

Which takes us back to the original rule: you don't comment on ongoing investigations. Then multiply that times ten close to an election. 9/






https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/786326769754312704/hA9BxOL__bigger.jpgMatthew Miller @matthewamiller (https://twitter.com/matthewamiller)


For whatever reason (& there are many theories), Comey continues to ignore that. But only for Clinton. 10/

FBI is undoubtedly investigating links between the Russian hack, Manafort, & the Trump campaign. But aren't commenting on it. Good! 11/




(https://twitter.com/matthewamiller)https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/786326769754312704/hA9BxOL__bigger.jpgMatthew Miller @matthewamiller (https://twitter.com/matthewamiller)

They shouldn't be commenting on investigations! But that should apply to all. Instead Clinton consistently treated differently/worse. 12/12

the problem is when you start with your conclusion...

conclusion: hillary is guilty and should be in prison

therefore, any report of clinton's possible guilt is good, honest reporting, and a report to the contrary is the result of a rigged, corrupt system. regardless of the merits of either report. you already know which report is right or wrong, because you are making the mistake of starting with the conclusion rather than reaching the conclusion as a result of evidence

the fbi investigated her shit for a full year, had access to tons of material you didnt, but based on your google/blog/forum searching you seem to think you know more than the fbi who actually investigated. it doesn't mean their results are infallible, but you need to explain how you know more than the fbi did

investigators looked at Weiner's laptop and discovered that Huma Abedin had also used it. So there are some emails from Abedin to Hillary Clinton on the hard drive. Here's Williams:


Now they've got to go get court process to get the right to...take a wider look at these emails and begin that process.

You said earlier this probably won't be wrapped up before Election Day? Scratch probably.



In other words, nobody has even looked at these emails yet.

The FBI has to get a court order first.

So: are these emails that have already been turned over? Maybe.

Are they routine emails about schedules and so forth? Maybe.

Nobody, including the FBI, has the slightest idea.

But there's certainly no reason to think there are any bombshells here.

Needless to say, this didn't stop every news outlet in the country from blaring this at the tops of their front pages. They never learn, do they?

Email stories hyped by folks like Jason Chaffetz never pan out.

But news orgs get suckered every time anyway. So just to make sure their shame is preserved for posterity, here they are:

I called this a week ago. Trump numbers mysteriously rising for whatever reason now this. It's all a ploy to give the media a legitimate reason to have them "statically tied" come Election Day. A pending blowout doesn't help the media. They need to spin this like it's closer when it's really not.

There was no need for the DOJ to grant immunity deals, they could have gotten anything they needed by issuing a grand jury subpoena, and if they thought any evidence would be destroyed they could have gotten a search warrant and seized evidence.

This is Hillaryous.

Both sides now claim the media is corrupt and can't be trusted. What is THE MEDIA?


And that same media that can't be trusted is constantly referred to as word if it fits your view. The director of the FBI had this released. He had to go through some sort of decision making process. Is it possible to hang on and find out if it is worthy? I suspect if he just threw something out to atone for what some think were prior misdeeds we will eventually know. For God's sake, it is possible it could be something that actually required a very difficult decision due to the timing. (Though I would not care to venture a guess)

So Donald states the election is or is not rigged, where are we on that... Does he think he is winning...

Anon FBI says...
Clinton Foundation is corrupt to the point that the entire govt is involved and govt will collapse if the real truth is exposed
Hillary wants to start a war with Russia and China
Trump has some of the emails and will release them at just the right time to bolster his support...also gonna pick Flynn as VP
Blacks are impulsive and violent but can be domesticated
We are manipulated into being pro Israel

Seems pretty legit to me.

There is a lot of bullshit in there to sift through. Stick to what he says about the investigation and the Clinton Foundation. His claims on the investigation check out. There is no way to know the things he knew when he knew them if he wasn't very closely connected to the FBI or in the actual investigation. It's really quiet amazing when you look at the dates of when this was all leaked.

If you actually take the time and meticulously go through the threads you'll see what I'm talking about.

And the other witnesses that didn't get immunity did plead the 5th...hundreds of times. That's not my point. For example Mills laptop. DOJ does not need to give her immunity in order to get her laptop. They could issue a grand jury subpoena or get a warrant and seize. No reason to grant immunity when they can lawfully retrieve.

Just to a few hours later start pedalling that somehow Hillary is the main target here when the investigation is focus on Anthony Wiener.

There is no indication the emails in question were withheld by Clinton during the investigation, the law enforcement official told Newsweek, nor does the discovery suggest she did anything illegal. Also, none of the emails were to or from Clinton, the official said. Moreover, despite the widespread claims in the media that this development had prompted the FBI to “reopen” of the case, it did not; such investigations are never actually closed, and it is common for law enforcement to discover new information that needs to be examined.

Apparently it was never closed to begin with, and if this just had to do with Adedin or Weiner Comey would not have needed to write his letter to congress. Whatever they found has to do with Clinton, and it's got to be something big for Comey to come out with it this close to the election. No way he risks tarnishing the FBI further if what they discovered was a dud.

Justice officials warned FBI that Comey’s decision to update Congress was not consistent with department policy

Comey told Justice Department officials that he intended to inform lawmakers of newly discovered emails. These officials told him the department’s position “that

we don’t comment on an ongoing investigation. And

we don’t take steps that will be viewed as influencing an election,”

said one Justice Department official

Comey made an independent decision to alert the Hill. He is operating independently of the Justice Department. And he knows it.”

Comey decided to inform Congress that he would look again into Hillary Clinton’s handling of emails during her time as secretary of state for two main reasons: a sense of obligation to lawmakers and a concern that word of the new email discovery would leak to the media and raise questions of a coverup

It placed Comey again at the center of a highly partisan argument over whether the nation’s top law enforcement agency was unfairly influencing the campaign.

“Of course, we don’t ordinarily tell Congress about ongoing investigations, but here I feel I also think it would be misleading to the American people were we not to supplement the record,” Comey wrote

COMEY PRAISES BRAVE F.B.I. AGENTS WHO HAD TO TOUCH ANTHONY WEINER’S COMPUTER

WASHINGTON — James Comey, the embattled director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, presided over a special ceremony on Friday evening to commend the brave F.B.I. agents who had to touch Anthony Weiner’s computer.

In awarding the commendations to the agents, whom Comey called “the bravest men and women this country has to offer,” the F.B.I. director criticized the political uproar that he said had overshadowed “their selfless acts of heroism.”

“These agents have performed far and beyond the call of duty,” a visibly angry Comey said. “I know we’re eleven days away from an election and tensions are running high, but we shouldn’t let that subtract in any way from

what these brave agents did with their own hands.”

“Who among us could look at ourselves in the mirror and say, ‘I have what it takes to touch Anthony Weiner’s computer’?”

Comey asked. “I know I sure as hell couldn’t.”

Harland Dorrinson, one of the agents who received the official commendation, acknowledged that touching Weiner’s computer was “the toughest mission I’ve been on” since signing up with the F.B.I.

“I spent two weeks undercover in El Chapo’s drug cartel, and this was much scarier,” he said.

Many of the emails were discovered on a laptop used by both Ms. Abedin and Mr. Weiner, according to people familiar with the matter. In searching the laptop, investigators found thousands of emails, and they determined earlier this week that some of the emails involved Ms. Abedin discussing work issues. Ms. Abedin was questioned earlier this year by the FBI in the Clinton email probe.

Authorities haven’t yet determined how many emails involved work, or if any of those included classified information, these people said.

They also haven’t determined if the work emails in question are copies of messages already reviewed by the FBI.

It’s not that “Jim Comey is an apolitical straight shooter,” as every talking head is eager to tell you.

It’s that Jim Comey is very concerned that he be seen as an apolitical straight shooter.

Because of that, he has, repeatedly, put preservation of his own reputation ahead of both justice and the good of the nation.

From his ludicrous, finger-wagging press gaggle in announcing Clinton’s innocence, to his ham-fisted intrusion into the final act of
the election, Comey has felt compelled to insert Jim Comey, straight-shooter, into every moment.

As a result he’s caused serious harm to the FBI, to the election, and to the nation.

And, just incidentally, he’s ruined his reputation in the process.

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2016/10/28/bernstein_fbi_would_not_reopen_case_unless_new_evi dence_was_a_real_bombshell.html

Watergate journalist Carl Bernstein comments on the FBI's shocking Friday afternoon announcement that they are reopening the investigation into Hilary Clinton's email server because new evidence has come to light.

CARL BERNSTEIN: Well, there's no question that the e-mails have always been the greatest threat to her candidacy for president, that her conduct in regard to the e-mails is really indefensible and if there was going to be more information that came out, it was the one thing, as I said on the air last night, actually that could really perhaps affect this election.

We don't know what this means yet except that it's a real bombshell. And it is unthinkable that the Director of the FBI would take this action lightly, that he would put this letter forth to the Congress of the United States saying there is more information out there about classified e-mails and call it to the attention of congress unless it was something requiring serious investigation. So that's where we are...

Is it a certainty that we won't learn before the election? I'm not sure it's a certainty we won't learn before the election.

One thing is, it's possible that Hillary Clinton might want to on her own initiative talk to the FBI and find out what she can, and if she chooses to let the American people know what she thinks or knows is going on. People need to hear from her...

I think if she has information available to her from the FBI or any other source as to her knowledge of what these e-mails might be, hopefully she will let us know what they are and what is under discussion here.

Right now we're all talking in a vacuum but I want to add here that in the last, oh, 36, 48 hours, there has been an undercurrent of kind of speculative discussion among some national security people that something might surface in the next few days about e-mails, and I think the expectation in this chatter -- and I took it as just chatter but informed chatter, to some extent -- was that it would relate to another round of WikiLeaks e-mails, which our Justice Department people seem to be saying is not the case, but there has been some noise in the national security community the last day or two of this kind of possibility of some kind of revelation.

But this is her achilles heel and we have to remember that it also comes on the -- back to the word heel -- of the revelations about the Clinton Foundation. So the confluence of all of this is bad for her as it stands now but with some knowledge she might be able to stop, turn things around, and give us some idea of what's going on in a way we might not otherwise know, and also it's very possible that some members of congress very quickly are going to get an idea of what these e-mails are, and what this is all about, and for whatever purpose put some information out there.

specific details on how the white house/doj interfered with and impacted the FBI's investigation?
Interesting part about John Giacalone walking away from the investigation because of the way it was headed

======================

In mid-summer a wave of panic and despair began to wash over key rank-and-file FBI agents who were doggedly working the Hillary Clinton investigations. Agents reluctantly pondered a potential, brutal reality that was creeping into the fabric of the high-profile case. What if their collective work wasn’t meant to bring this case to a grand jury for indictments and justice? What if they themselves, FBI agents sworn to uphold the law, were being used as intelligence pawns by superiors and higher powers to actually shield Clinton and her inner circle from ever seeing a pair of handcuffs and a jail cell?

“I got a pit in my stomach,” a FBI insider said. “That empty, sinking feeling you get in your gut. I thought we may have unknowingly been parties to this entire mess. It’s a blow to the ego. We’re supposed to see these things coming.”
Agents, along with the country, had just absorbed the troubling optics of Attorney General Loretta Lynch meeting privately with the husband of the investigation’s primary target on a jet tarmac just days earlier. And then hours after that debacle, the FBI announced Hillary would venture to its headquarters, in a matter of hours, to finally answer the bureau’s lingering questions about how she handled classified and top secret emails as secretary of state.
We say Clinton investigations, plural, because there were really two parallel inquiries that unfolded during the year-long FBI probe. There was the public email and home server investigation but agents were also building a pay-for-play criminal case involving Clinton, the Clinton Foundation and her husband, former President Bill Clinton. And that case was growing serious wings.
The FBI case agents and support personnel are forbidden to “go public” or comment on the record to share their frustrations and dismay because they each signed an unprecedented confidentiality agreement prior to signing onto work the Clinton investigation. Violating that agreement would likely cost them their careers and pensions. Regardless, True Pundit conducted interviews with FBI assets and support personnel who collectively painted a dark insiders’ portrait of the Clinton criminal probe which was commissioned to determine how Clinton and her aides handled, maintained, stored and ultimately botched some of the most sensitive information ever breached in the country’s 240-year history. True Pundit’s interviews and intelligence gathering on the Clinton investigation found:


Allegations of pay-for-play involving the Clinton Foundation were not properly vetted, ultimately white washed
FBI agents were blocked from serving search warrants to retrieve key evidence
Attempts to secure Clinton’s medical records to confirm her head injury were sabotaged by FBI Director James Comey
FBI agents were not allowed to interrogate witnesses and targets without warning
Clinton and aides were provided special VIP accommodations during interviews
FBI suspended standard investigative tactics employed in other probes
FBI agents efforts were often blocked, suppressed by FBI, DOJ brass
Agents lost faith that their superiors and DOJ wanted to see the case reach a grand jury


Visionary Reads the Tea Leaves
The wheels on the federal investigations started coming loose after the New Year, in January of this year.
John Giacalone was the supervisor of the bureau’s National Security Branch and also the FBI brains and genesis behind the Clinton email and private server investigation. He first approached Comey in 2015 for the green light to probe how the former secretary of state operated her private email server and handled classified correspondences. Rumors had been swirling in intelligence circles. Once approved, Giacalone spearheaded the investigation, and helped hand select top agents who were highly skilled but also discreet. Many of those agents were concerned when Giacalone abruptly resigned in the middle of the investigation.
FBI insiders said Giacalone used the term “sideways” to describe the direction the Clinton probe had taken in the bureau. Giacalone lamented privately he no longer had confidence in the direction the investigation was headed. He felt it was simpler to quietly step aside, walk away instead of fight to keep the investigation on its proper track. Giacalone was a true heavyweight agent at FBI. In fact, he likely should have been running the entire show. His pedigree included running and creating FBI divisions in New York, Philadelphia, Washington D.C. and even serving as deputy commander in the Iraqi theater of operations. But in the midst of the Clinton investigation, Giacalone handed the bureau his retirement papers in Feb.
“John is a strategic thinker. He recognizes patterns and signs and can then see things long before they develop,” a FBI insider said. “Losing him was a major blow. We now know perhaps what he was envisioning. He didn’t want that around his neck.”
Giacalone could not be reached for comment.
In late 2015 through January 2016, Giacalone shared the frustration of many agents who were perturbed about one lingering issue: When was the FBI going to interview Hillary Clinton?
By June, that frustration had reached a boiling point, largely fueled by Giacalone’s resignation months earlier. Frustrated FBI personnel were beginning to question the pace of the case and believed their intelligence gathering and analysis were beyond strong enough for a referral to the Justice Department in early 2016, sources said. Agents were left to wonder if their dogged research would ever see public eyes. There was a fear creeping into the case that perhaps the investigation was being politicized, that FBI and DOJ brass were trying to run out the clock, or “slow-walk” the case, on what should be considered an easily warranted criminal indictment prior to November’s general election.
Suddenly, Giacalone’s retirement in Feb. was starting to make more sense to FBI grunts who didn’t have the seasoning and street smarts of the retired New Yorker to digest the landscape, months prior, of the probe’s downward trajectory
“The window here has almost closed,” a federal law enforcement source told True Pundit in June. “Clinton should have been interviewed months ago. There is no longer enough time to refer it to DOJ, vet the case with AUSA’s (Assistant US Attorney’s), the AG and her staff, prepare the case, call a Grand Jury, and put the case on.”
Officials in June reiterated that all those elements in the legal process, if expedited without delays or legal snags, would put a grand jury decision to indict in late September or October, just weeks before the election.
“Can you imagine the uproar if she was arrested weeks before the election?” a federal law enforcement source said. “There was a window we were shooting for and we could have made it but everything is so slow now. I mean, she hasn’t even been interviewed. It’s incredible.”
The Queen and Her Court
Agents, again, had been trying to interview Clinton since about Dec. 2015 but approval within the bureau has been often delayed, sources said. Agents said the case was running smooth under Giacalone but once he exited, strange things started happening. For starters, in early April Comey said he would personally interrogate Clinton in the coming days about her private server and email use. Days passed. Then weeks. Then months. Comey still had not interviewed Clinton or even allowed her to be interviewed by anyone in the FBI, despite numerous requests. Comey was quickly losing the trust of his frustrated subordinates.
Agents at first thought Comey was joking when he said he would personally interrogate Clinton, who at the time was locked in in a death match to win the Democratic nomination against Sen. Bernie Sanders. Then, when they realized Comey actually made these statements publicly, a wave of dismay quickly built among rank and file FBI.
“He doesn’t know the case well enough to interview witnesses or targets,” a FBI source said. “It makes no sense. It could ruin the case or any case.”
For the first time, FBI personnel started to think Comey was grandstanding for the media while possibly purposely sitting on the case. But why? The FBI was supposed to be above that brand of internal manipulation. They were about to soon discover, that time-tested sentiment, was not shared by Comey.
Three months after professing he would personally interrogate Clinton within days, the FBI arranged with her legal team to finally have the former senator come to FBI headquarters in Washington D.C for questioning. On a Saturday. In the middle of the Fourth of July holiday weekend. When the country was busy relaxing during its extended recreational break. FBI sources said Hillary’s legal team wanted to avoid a media-like circus and the Democratic candidate was not comfortable having to walk through the J. Edgar Hoover Building with FBI agents at their work stations gawking at her or snapping perp walk-like pictures of her with their camera phones. Her fears of course were over dramatized and completely unfounded. Welcome to Clinton’s tactical tool box.
Clinton arrived with her legal entourage in tow. Attorneys David Kendall, Katherine Turner, Heather Samuelson, and Cheryl Mills flanked Clinton. On the government side of the conference room: FBI Section Chief Peter Strzok, David Laufman from the Justice Department, two unnamed DOJ representatives as well as the two confidential FBI agents conducting the interview.
Following the interview, word quickly spread through FBI circles that Mills was permitted to represent Clinton as part of her legal team during the session. Mills served as Clinton’s counsel and chief of staff at State. But some agents immediately thought news of her presence at the table had to be a simple mistake. There was little chance she could be allowed to sit in on an interview with the target of a criminal case, when Mills herself was a case witness and also considered a potential target. It made no sense.
“What the hell was she doing there and who allowed this?” a FBI source fumed.
What did it mean? To seasoned law enforcement agents, Mills’ presence meant the Big interview with Clinton was part of a dog-and-pony show for the media and American public. No legitimate FBI interview would allow another suspect in the same case to sit in on the supposed interrogation of another criminal target. Ever. Case agents realized they had been played. Their earlier fears about FBI brass tampering in the Clinton case were being quickly realized.
“This wasn’t a legitimate interrogation,“ a FBI source said. “It was more of a proffer passed off to the media as a tough criminal interview so the public would think she (Clinton) was being grilled.”
A proffer. That is when a defense lawyer brings their client to talk directly to the government. It is the result of considerable negotiation and legal maneuvering prior to the meeting, with defense lawyers ironing out permissible questions and ground rules for the interview with an alleged criminal target. Clinton’s lawyers knew the questions she would be asked before they stepped into the J. Edgar Hoover Building and could coach and rehearse her accordingly. The interview was a farce. FBI agents who toiled building this case were bewildered and angry.
For any other criminal target not shrouded by the Clinton’s protective legal machine and political bubble, two or more FBI agents show up at your front door at dawn and ask you questions while you’re in your pajamas and making breakfast for your kids on a school day. There’s no time to contact your lawyer or your legal team. The element of surprise is a powerful tactic and through the years this methodology has paid untold riches and intelligence dividends for the FBI. But Hillary and her aides were exempt from this investigative tool. Why?
Any other suspect would have had a search warrant served at their home while the sun was coming up and had agents rifle through your belongings while the target was isolated in a separate room with two agents peppering them with questions. It’s a known tactic. Agents toss your house room by room in front of you and your loved ones to instill fear as the proverbial stick to get you to talk or agree to cooperate. That never happened with Hillary. Or her aides. Their varying legal teams set the parameters before meetings with the FBI. In fact, from the dozens of interviews conducted with witnesses in the Clinton investigations, agents could only remember perhaps a handful happening at the home of a witness or target. Instead, each key witness talked to the FBI flanked by their legal teams at FBI facilities or legal offices of their counsel. This is far from standard practice and puts the investigation at a severe disadvantage by not showing up without warning at a target’s home.
“You tell the target(s) hey, you agree to cooperate and start talking and I can shut this whole thing down here today,” an FBI agent said. “We pack up, we put our guns away, we stop going through your rooms and underwear, you don’t go to jail today, you get to have dinner with your family tonight and tuck your kids into bed, and we continue this at a later date away from your house and family. You are offering them an immediate out to restore things back to normal. It is a powerful tool and it works.”
But not in this case.
Kid Gloves Instead of Warrants
There were similar special accommodations in play for physical evidence too, sources said. Mills’ legal team worked to get her immunity from DOJ for allowing the FBI to examine her Dell laptop which was believed to contain thousands of unseen Clinton emails from her tenure at State. This was a recurring theme during the investigation because Comey would not allow agents to serve search warrants on the primary players. FBI agents had never seen any case where warrants could not be served which truly handcuffed the investigation and evidence collection.
“Who the f— is she (Mills) to negotiate for her laptop?” a FBI source ranted. “We get a warrant; we show up at her house and take whatever we want to take. Why is she so goddamn special? Let her lawyers negotiate after we raid her house and vehicles and get to see everything we want to see. Why are we asking her for permission for anything? Do the warrant; hit the house, get everything including Clinton Foundation documents and emails we wanted to get. The FBI has been doing this for decades. It’s a methodology. Why do we keep breaking protocol in this case?
“While we were playing footsie with her (Clinton) and her aides, instead of raiding their homes and offices, they had time to turn over incriminating evidence to their attorneys so we could not get at it. If we hit them by the book, we would have that evidence.”
Mills turned the lap top over to her lawyers. At least one other Clinton associate did the same with an old lap top sought by the FBI. Once in a lawyer’s possession the physical evidence becomes more difficult to obtain as it is protected under the Work Product doctrine between attorney and client and not privy to law enforcement eyes, warrant or not.
“If we hit everyone’s house or office on the same morning with warrants, we would have had it all,” the FBI source said. “We could have conducted interviews too without their legal counsel there to negotiate terms and make our jobs more difficult.”
No special treatment. No negotiating proffer sessions. No hiding evidence via legal loopholes. No immunity agreements before you first provide the FBI with actionable case intelligence. If the case had been handled like other criminal cases, perhaps DOJ wouldn’t have been able to hand out immunity to individuals, including the computer specialist who deleted Clinton’s emails after a federal subpoena to preserve her archived correspondences. All told, FBI sources said there are at least five players who were granted immunity in this investigation and many believe the number could likely total six because it is widely believed Huma Abedin received her own immunity deal for cooperating, sources said.

Collective Amnesia
The manner and circumstances surrounding Clinton’s proffer were disturbing enough. But that was pale in comparison to how Clinton answered questions during the three-hour session. Her legal strategy was to feign ignorance and blame a jostled memory for not being able to recall details of events, emails, conversations with staffers. FBI agents were not seemingly prepared for this type of defense. What normally should have been be a very long proffer session was ultimately cut short because Clinton repeatedly claimed she couldn’t remember even basic details about just about every faction of the interview. Clinton blamed her failing memory on a 2012 concussion she said she suffered after passing out, strangely enough, right after she was notified by the House Select Committee on Benghazi that she was being called to testify. She was excused from that hearing in late 2012.
But ultimately, the concussion tact was working again in 2016 and FBI agents were left scratching their own heads about Clinton’s head. How could she not remember? Well, head injuries, as her lawyers had interjected, are complicated matters. But agents realized Clinton did remember selective details prior to December 2012, but conveniently, nothing about potentially damning events prior to what she described as a serious concussion.
According to the FBI’s 302 report detailing her interview and the bureau’s general report of the email investigation, Clinton could not “recall” the answers to 27 different questions about her private email server and did not “remember” details of her emailing and classification habits at least another 12 times. But those were the numbers released just for public consumption. Agents said during the interview, Clinton didn’t remember details for dozens more questions and scenarios not detailed in the declassified 302.
How do you cross examine someone with amnesia? Or purporting to have amnesia? You simply can’t. It was a frustrating exercise for agents and the team working the Clinton case. If nothing else, agents thought Clinton could perhaps provide bogus answers to some of the questions and perhaps set herself up for possible violations of 18 U.S.C. Sec. 1001, making false claims to government agents, a felony charge which could perhaps be used as leverage after an indictment during a possible plea. That went out the window as well with the amnesia drama.
Perhaps this was the master plan of the collective defense to counter the government’s probe. FBI 302s for the interviews with Meyer, top aide Abedin and other Clinton aides all had a similar pattern. No one could recall any details to the most critical breaches of State Department data and emails. The more sensitive the breach, the dumber Clinton and her aides acted. Mills, at one juncture, told FBI agents that she didn’t even know what a computer server was. Mills has a law degree from Stanford.
Abedin couldn’t remember much during her time at State, according to FBI documents, including how to consistently print documents or emails from her secure Dept. of State system. Abedin told FBI agents in an April interview that she struggled to print secure docs and emails from her secure PC. Instead, she would forward the sensitive emails to:


Her personal Clinton.com email address
Her personal yahoo.com address
Her email linked to husband Anthony Weiner

Abedin said she would then access those email accounts via webmail from an unclassified computer system at the State Dept. and print the documents, many of which were classified and top secret, from the largely unprotected webmail portals. Clinton did not have a computer in her office on Mahogany Row at the State Dept. so she was not able to read timely intelligence unless it was printed out for her, Abedin said. Abedin also said Clinton could not operate the secure State Dept. fax machine installed in her Chappaqua, NY home without assistance.
Perhaps more alarming, none of the multiple FBI agents and Justice Department officials who conducted Abedin’s interview pressed her to further detail what were repeated and obvious violations of a host of federal laws.
Word spread fast through the FBI’s investigative team handling Clinton that she simply didn’t remember any details to any questions that mattered. She with her cabal of aides, in effect, had stymied the probe and agents spent Saturday night largely licking their wounds while outraged that their bosses were buying Clinton’s antics. But even more alarming, they were being permitted by FBI brass and DOJ officials to get away with this anti-law enforcement behavior. No one was pressing them to come clean. Excuses and defenses were taken at face value, absent follow up. For example, Clinton’s legal team called questions about the Clinton Foundation off limits during her sit down with the FBI. Why didn’t the bureau ask her Clinton Foundation questions anyway? Instead, the agents and DOJ official submitted to her legal terms at the expense of a criminal investigation.
Moreover, once agents had access to the completed 302 report detailing what precisely went down during the Clinton interview, agents thought it might be missing pages or portions because it failed to contain key ingredients. There were not questions about the Clinton Foundation and what role it played in her setting up and employing her private server. There were no questions about Clinton’s emails and her aides’ thousands of emails to and from Clinton Foundation personnel. The FBI’s interview, Agents criticized, also never truly pressed Clinton with follow up to her answers. Agents and DOJ officials never presented her with contradictory evidence to counter her claims and statements. Clinton, they summarized, was given a free ride. Any other person would have been skewered for hours, or brought to tears, or simply muscled into contemplating a future plea. They had the dirt on her to do just that but chose to let her off easy, seemingly sensitive to her alleged medical woes. These tough questions were, again, off limits.
Frustrated field agents hedge that Clinton’s head injury was simply a well-played ruse to serve as a get-out-of-FBI-interview free card.
“She (Clinton) was bullshitting,” a FBI source said. “We didn’t believe a word about memory loss. How can she testify for 10 or 11 hours at a Benghazi hearing in Congress with no memory problems but loses her memory when she steps into FBI?”
Agents Hatch A New Attack
Agents searched for a solution to counter her legal team’s maneuvering. By Monday (July 4th), FBI rank and file came up with a plan. On Tuesday, investigators would put the legal wheels in motion to independently obtain Clinton’s medical records. Monday was a national holiday so they would have to wait it out until the next morning. Clinton’s medical records would verify whether she indeed, did suffer a head injury and if it was serious enough to incapacitate her from recalling key details. This would be an investigative lay-up. Agents didn’t even have to go through a formal subpoena process. Under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 regulations, health care companies can comply with law enforcement requests for such records, absent a subpoena or warrant signed by a judge. A simple request via facsimile or even email could quickly yield a target’s medical records, and sometimes, even a prescription history.
Plans to obtain Clinton’s medical records leaked up the chain of command and by Monday evening Comey issued a directive ultimately putting the cabash on what otherwise seemed like a smart investigative grab. No one in the FBI was permitted to obtain Clinton’s official medical records. No exceptions. The directive set off chaos within the bureau, especially on the heels of the fake criminal interview with Clinton just days earlier. This wasn’t the first time FBI brass had blocked agents from obtaining Clinton-related intelligence crucial to the probe. Now, it was a pattern. How were agents supposed to work the case to drill holes in Clinton’s interview defenses and tactics without confirming she had a severe head injury?
Despite the explicit impromptu directive, Comey and his inner circle were not out of the woods on the medical records issue. Some agents vowed to do an end run around the FBI itself through a former intelligence contact who could obtain just about any record quietly and quickly for a price. To Hell with Comey, these agents thought. We’re going to get these records one way or another. These medical records could potentially be an ace up their collective sleeve.
“Can you imagine we have to go to the equivalent of dark web for information,” the FBI source said. “We’re supposed to be the FBI.”
The clandestine contact said it would take approximately 72 hours to obtain Clinton’s medical history documents. But agents said Comey knew the FBI grunts would not sit still and simply accept his directive not to pursue Clinton’s health details. Agents believed the Clinton case would follow the mold of other cases following the interview with the primary target: They would have weeks to vet Clinton’s statements from the interview to determine if she was lying. It turned out, Comey made sure they only had hours.
Tuesday morning came fast and its events even faster. The Hoover building was swarming with media, packing a first floor conference room at FBI. Without any warning, Comey had called a press conference for a major announcement about the Clinton case. Agents thought perhaps Clinton or her aides had agreed to a plea deal. Abedin instantly came to mind, as she openly admitted to sending classified and top secret materials to her personal unsecured email addresses. Had Abedin or another player in this investigation worked out a deal even prior to an indictment? No. That wasn’t even close to the the flavor of this press conference.
Comey stepped to the lectern at 11 a.m., Tuesday July 5, to wake the country up from its Independence Day weekend hangover. Comey proceeded to absolve Hillary Clinton, her aides, her foundation, and her husband of any and all criminal wrongdoing from the parallel investigations
Comey’s subordinates were blindsided.
“You spend time away from family chasing bad people, then realize you might have been professionally manipulated to help them,” a downtrodden FBI source said. “I mean, who in the hell were we all working for?”

Professor who’s correctly called every presidential election since 1984 predicts Trump will win

Hillary Clinton may still be ahead in most national polls (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/10/29/clinton-47-trump-45-in-post-abc-tracking-poll/), but at least one expert remains convinced that Donald Trump will be our next president.

American University Professor Allen J. Lichtman, who has accurately predicted the winner of every presidential election since 1984, first forecast a victory for the GOP nominee during an interview with the Washington Post last month (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/05/12/this-professor-has-predicted-every-presidential-election-since-1984-hes-still-trying-to-figure-out-2016/?tid=a_inl). Granted, this was before the release of the now-infamous “Access Hollywood” tape, followed by mounting allegations (https://www.yahoo.com/news/former-miss-utah-temple-taggart-speaks-out-against-trumps-threat-to-sue-his-accusers-215203242.html) of sexual misconduct, which Trump has attempted to counter with claims that the election is rigged and that the media is conspiring against him. Meanwhile, the tense presidential debates concluded with the suggestion from Trump (https://www.yahoo.com/news/some-republicans-rip-trump-for-refusal-to-say-hell-accept-election-results-155052341.html) that he might not accept the outcome of the election if he is not the winner.
Despite all this, however, Lichtman has not wavered from his prediction.
“By the narrowest of possible margins, the keys still point to a Trump victory,” he told the Post this week. (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/10/28/professor-whos-predicted-30-years-of-presidential-elections-correctly-is-doubling-down-on-a-trump-win/)
As Lichtman noted in this latest interview, he is not a “psychic,” nor does he “look into a crystal ball.” Rather, his projections are based on a unique system that relies on 13 True/False questions, or “keys,” to evaluate the strength of the incumbent party.
“An answer of True on these True/False questions always favors the reelection of the party in power,” Lichtman explained. “And if six or more of the 13 keys are False, the party in power, the party holding the White House, is the predicted loser — any six or more.”

I've spent the last day reading the FBI 350 page report (https://ia801507.us.archive.org/32/items/HillaryClintonFBI/Hillary%20Clinton.pdf)on the emails and supporting documents (https://vault.fbi.gov/hillary-r.-clinton) like the FBI 302 of Huma Abedin's and Hillary Clinton's interviews, the transcripts of Comey's hours of testimony (http://www.thompsontimeline.com/congressional-testimony-of-fbi-director-james-comey/) before the House Oversight Committee, and all the depositions(including Huma Abedin's) at Judicial Watch.

I don't know how many times you can say "There's nothing there."

Whatever device Huma used to read and print her forwarded emails from dozens of people including Hillary has little to do with Hillary.

The misreporting out there is enormous.

Huma didn't get immunity in the Clinton email probe.

Even if Comey has only the best interests at heart, it's undeniable this was going to get completely politicized in no time. Not sending that letter didn't preclude him from actually going ahead with the alleged investigation either.

This works the same if that letter was about an investigation on Trump. Dems would be all over it, and it would be difficult to argue it's not somewhat influential.

Only way Comey could cover his own ass was coming out with this first. There was either a revolt within the FBI and they had info from the Weiner case they were going to drop or they knew wikileaks/o'keefe/Kim dotcom had something they needed to get ahead of to save face.

:lmao boy are you fucking stupid.

Comey didn't even know what was in these uncovered emails when he wrote that letter.


At the time Comey wrote the letter, “he had no idea what was in the content of the emails,” one of the officials said, referring to recently discovered emails that were found on the laptop of disgraced ex-Rep. Anthony Weiner (https://www.yahoo.com/news/report-new-clinton-emails-under-fbi-review-came-from-anthony-weiner-investigation-195909998.html?soc_src=mail&soc_trk=ma), the estranged husband (https://www.yahoo.com/news/huma-abedin-anthony-weiner-000000126.html?soc_src=mail&soc_trk=ma) of top Clinton aide Huma Abedin.

As of Saturday night, the FBI had still not gotten approval from the Justice Department for a warrant that would allow agency officials to read any of the newly discovered Abedin emails, and therefore are still in the dark about whether they include any classified material that the bureau has not already seen.


“We do not have a warrant,” a senior law enforcement official said. “Discussions are under way as to the best way to move forward.”




[B]That Comey and other senior FBI officials were not aware of what was in the emails — and whether they contained any material the FBI had not already obtained — is important

FBI is compromised politically

‘We do not have a warrant’: FBI admits Comey jumped the gun with Clinton email announcement

The Federal Bureau of Investigation still did not have a warrant to view the emails it is purportedly investigating in the reopening of its case regarding Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and her use of a private email server during her tenure as Secretary of State.

Yahoo News reporter Michael Isikoff (https://www.yahoo.com/news/comey-wrote-bombshell-letter-to-congress-before-fbi-had-reviewed-new-emails-220219586.html) attempted to question FBI officials about the contents of the emails alluded to by Director James Comey on Friday, but found that the officials themselves have yet to view the emails. So far, they’ve been unable to obtain legal authorization to do so.

Senior Justice Department officials are reportedly “apoplectic” that Comey would make his move based on so little evidence at such a critical time in the U.S. election

Comey is a loose cannon who is as high-handed and unaccountable a director as the FBI has seen since J. Edgar Hoover.
“Come January,” Riley said, “whoever steps into the Oval Office will find, in Comey, a formidable antagonist: not the wrathful demigod Kennedy encountered in Hoover, but every bit as untouchable.”

It's been customary not to introduce this kind of political stuff that close to an election, and rightly so: even if I don't like Shillary at all, and I think she's dirty as fuck, there's nothing she can do to defend herself, because there's not even a solid accusation of wrongdoing and it's unlikely to be until well after the election. I don't hate Comey and I've defended the FBI's integrity in the past (unlike some people that apparently constantly change opinions on that depending on what's politically expedient), and I don't even claim there's no smoke on this, but IMO, you do have to question judgement on the timing of that letter.

Government has a dossier on everybody. If you think the FBI doesn't have a file on Donald, you're deluding yourself. If Comey came out waving a smoking gun with Shillary's fingerprints all over it, then by all means, I'll be in line applauding.

But this? What's the defense against this? There's no even an allegation, anything. This isn't Soros, Putin or the libural media, this is your own government casting a shadow.

I couldn't care less if Shillary ends up in Guantanamo. Heck, I'll probably chip in for a ticket to send her there. But Comey wrote his own political death sentence when he went out of his way to do a presser on clearing her on any charges, tbh...

I don't think there's turning this election around at this point, even if they find the buried bodies 2 days before the election, tbh... and the honeymoon between Shillary and the GOP Congress due to "the people have spoken" and "elections have consequences", will probably last less than a Lewinsky blowjob. That's why I said I hope this at least makes her a one term president... but frankly, after 2012 and this year, I can't even be sure anymore, tbh...

Comey allegedly wrote the letter to Congress before the FBI had a warrant and before any of the emails had been read:


When FBI Director James Comey wrote his bombshell letter to Congress (https://www.yahoo.com/news/clinton-campaign-hits-fbi-director-comey-for-email-announcement-173838293.html?soc_src=mail&soc_trk=ma) on Friday about newly discovered emails that were potentially “pertinent” to the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email server, agents had not been able to review any of the material, because the bureau had not yet gotten a search warrant to read them, three government officials who have been briefed on the probe told Yahoo News.


At the time Comey wrote the letter, “he had no idea what was in the content of the emails,” one of the officials said, referring to recently discovered emails that were found on the laptop of disgraced ex-Rep. Anthony Weiner (https://www.yahoo.com/news/report-new-clinton-emails-under-fbi-review-came-from-anthony-weiner-investigation-195909998.html?soc_src=mail&soc_trk=ma), the estranged husband (https://www.yahoo.com/news/huma-abedin-anthony-weiner-000000126.html?soc_src=mail&soc_trk=ma) of top Clinton aide Huma Abedin. Weiner is under investigation for allegedly sending illicit text messages to a 15-year-old girl.

What looks bad for the country? We are actually openly discussing how we police ourselves. This is part of the reason foreign investors will buy in to this country. We air dirty laundry which is why this in NOT a banana republic. No government entity is following my posts or your posts taking a look at how we should be dealt with as we are the great intellectuals of this board who could be considered dangerous depending on a regime change. We don't have regime changes. Do people understand regime changes?

Seriously, what really looks bad for this country is Republicans opting for a complete idiot for a candidate. Who appears to advocate for a new regime. I don't win, shut the country down, change the laws I don't like, I was cheated.

Its shocking how people exaggerate the state of this country. ( It's exciting I guess, yet we deride the press when it does the same) What we have experienced is a brand new type of candidate, who has garnered a significant group of very angry voters, who has no clear plans or plans that are not workable. He is running on a platform that the other candidate is worse than me. And I can say anything that totally contradicts what I said yesterday. This had led to the candidate, who attempts to skirt laws, to resort to the same game. A candidate that was almost granted a walk in by their party (Bernie showed us we don't accept coronations) Bernie hurt Clinton badly in front of what she thought was her party.

But we "know" this. We can hash it out. That IS ULTIMATELY the strength of this country.

10 Ways Trump Broke the Law and Got Away with It: Putting the Latest Clinton Email Media Frenzy in Perspective

1. Boasts of sexually assaulting women. As almost everyone in America knows, Trump was caught boasting on videotape about imposing himself sexually on women, including the felony of grabbing their genitals. While he tried to dismiss his remarks as mere locker room bragging, a dozen women came forward to accuse him of improper behavior or sexual assault. Trump predictably accused all of them of lying and working for Clinton, and threatened to sue them all after the election. However, what Trump bragged about, and what the women said he did, is against the law.

2. Used illegal immigrants and mob to build Trump Tower. Trump’s borderline relationship with the law goes back decades. Before his signature building in New York City, Trump Tower, could be built, he had to demolish a department store. Trump used 200 undocumented Polish migrants who did not follow construction safety codes and were paid “off the books,” a federal court later held. He then built an all-concrete building, which cut some costs associated with a steel-based tower, using “ready-mix from a company called S&A Concrete. Mafia chieftains Anthony ‘Fat Tony’ Salerno and Paul Castellano secretly owned the firm,” Johnston wrote.

3. Caught Illegally not paying sales taxes. Some of Trump’s other brushes with the law are just dumb, unless he’s not as rich as he says he is or just likes to flirt with borderline behavior. In the mid-’80s, New York State’s attorney general listed Trump among 200 other wealthy people who bought pricey gems at a Manhattan jeweler and had the store put an out-of-state address on the receipt to avoid paying sales tax. Ed Koch, the mayor of New York at the time, said Trump should have spent 15 days in jail. Had Trump been convicted of tax fraud, Johnston wrote, he likely would have lost his New Jersey casino licenses.

4. More evidence of federal income tax fraud. In what can only be described as a bizarre series of events, Trump’s lawyer and accountant Jack Mitnick testified under oath that while he signed Trump’s 1984 federal tax return, neither he nor his firm had prepared it. “That same return showed $0 business consulting income and more than $600,000 of expenses for which no receipts were produced, also strong evidence of fraud,” Johnston wrote. During the presidential campaign, Trump has refused to release his taxes, saying he is being audited by the IRS, “but [he] will not even release the form letter proving an audit.”

5. Claiming $916 million in tax losses, but not paying bills. When the New York Times broke the story that Trump claimed $916 million in real estate losses in 1995, most of the focus was on how it allowed him to avoid federal taxes for years on income adding up to that figure. But there is another dimension to that move, which Johnston described in a Daily Beast piece (http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/10/03/art-of-the-steal-this-is-how-trump-lost-916m-and-avoided-tax.html): Those losses enabled Trump to tell bankruptcy courts he didn’t have the money to fully pay an army of contractors and small businesses. “Trump claimed to be worth billions in the 1990s, just as he now does, yet he could not pay his bills,” Johnston wrote. “He stiffed hundreds of small-business suppliers, including those for the Trump Taj Mahal casino in Atlantic City, which will go out of business [in mid-October].”

6. Trump University was another massive con job. To start, Trump broke the laws of several states that only allowed an authorized institution to be called a university. Then Trump lied when he said he would personally pick (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4q1N_B6Y4ZQ) the faculty, but when deposed under oath after being sued, admitted he had no idea who the faculty were. Johnston wrote, “His ‘faculty’ stood over students helping them take on all the credit card debt banks would give them to pay tuition and other fees to Trump U., leaving them with no capacity to invest in real estate.”

7. Paying off prosecutors via political donations to avoid charges. When former Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott investigated Trump University, he found its teaching “worthless” and encouraging “illegal” actions, Johnston wrote. “The Texas attorney general’s lawyers concluded that if sued by the state, Trump would have no legal defenses to civil fraud charges.” Abbott did not sue, but later got a $35,000 campaign contribution from Trump. Much the same storyline unfolded in Florida, where Attorney General Pam Bondi declined to take action after receiving many complaints and Trump’s foundation illegally donated $25,000 to her re-election campaign. Tax-exempt charities aren’t allowed to contribute to political campaigns.

8. Using his foundation for other illegal expenses. Johnston writes, “At least nine times, Trump made illegal use (https://projects.propublica.org/nonprofits/organizations/133404773) of Trump Foundation money including paying personal debts, legal obligations and buying two paintings (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/a-clue-to-the-whereabouts-of-the-6-foot-tall-portrait-of-donald-trump/2016/09/14/ae65db82-7a8f-11e6-ac8e-cf8e0dd91dc7_story.html) of himself; he also illegally solicited money (he recently stopped) and did not provide audited financial statements as required by state law.”

9. A lifetime of hiding behind secret settlements when sued. Trump has been sued 4,500 times and has a history of dragging out cases until the other side quits, or reaching a settlement in which those suing are sworn to secrecy before getting paid. As Johnston told AlterNet after his book came out, “His skill at shutting down law enforcement investigations—I cite those four grand juries, etc.—is extraordinary. He knows when to run to the cops and rat out people, or tell them information that will help them. He knows how to use the court system to cover up what he’s done by making a settlement on the condition that the record be sealed. And he’s masterful at this.”

10. Doing business with other known criminals. Over his career, Trump has done business with people with serious criminal records. Some were involved in deals, like “a violent convicted felon and swindler, named Felix Sater, who was helping Trump make two major development deals in Denver” a decade ago, Johnston wrote. “Trump wildly overpaid two mob hitmen known as ‘The Young Executioners’ for a tiny plot of New Jersey land,” he said in another example.

In your little mind was that bet lost. And even if I had lost, I wouldn't have taken you seriously enough to leave.

Had this being someone reputable, I would honor it, but you? You're a nothing. You're here for my laughing purpose. :lol
