Breitbart: Democrats have long complained that then-FBI Director James Comey’s announcement in late October 2016 that he was re-opening the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s emails cost them the presidential election.
But the report of the Department of Justice Inspector General, released Thursday, shows that the FBI may actually have neglected an investigation into emails found on Anthony Weiner’s laptop in an effort to stop Donald Trump from winning.
The report notes the FBI, working together with federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York (SDNY), had begun investigating Weiner in September 2016. They realized as early as Sep. 26 that his computer had hundreds of thousands of emails, many of which were from Clinton-related or State Department domains. They informed FBI headquarters in D.C., but no one did anything for four weeks until a prosecutor in SDNY complained.
The Inspector General notes that the FBI had already prioritized the Russia investigation — i.e. targeting Trump — over the Clinton investigation. Read more
In today’s IG report, Comey intimates that at the time, he didn’t know that Anthony Weiner was married to Huma Abedin.
WTF?
Someone online said Comey also didn’t know Bill and Hillary were married…
All of this crap won’t make a damn bit of difference. The swamp covers its own.
Let’s hope someone at the NYPD downloaded it all before turning it over to the FBI. If the FBI has it, it will never see the light of day.
But, But, professionalism, nonpartisan and integrity.
The Bullshit meter is pegged.
Yeah, the FBI needs more training to reset their moral compass.
Indict and prosecute.
@Joe6 – this has always been a thought and hope.
That said, will it see the light of day with the NYPD?
So, IF the NYPD did download, who will get it out there???
Without loosing a pension? IOW where is a good leak when ya need one?
That is the question.

I was going to write a Letter to the Editor, New York Post, tonight. I had it half written when Laura Ingraham had it on her show. It comes from the IG Report P 417, 11.02 am November 9, 2016. So I’ll write it here.
The morning after the election 2016, two FBI Employees were broken heart because he/she felt they didn’t do enough to help Hillary.

“All the people who were initially voting for (Hillary) would not, and were not swayed by any decision the FBI put out. Trump supporters are all poor to middle class, uneducated, lazy POS that think he will majestically grant them jobs for doing nothing. They probably didn’t watch the debates and arn’t(sic) fully educated in his policies and are stupidly wrapped up in his unmerited enthusiasm.”
On another page Peter Strzok tells his paramour Lisa Page that he visited a WalMart in Virginia “and it smelled like Trump voters.”
I’d suggest that IOWERS read it an pick out the crap and write about it. Those FBI people are not the type from “The FBI Story”
with Jimmy Stewart.
With the headline MJA put on this thread, I must say I’m disappointed in the comments. They are political comments, and I was expecting at least some classic raunch.
Plain Jane My comment was not political, it was an attitude comment.
The attitude of the scumbag, effete snobs, and how they treat us deblorable cults.

Plain Jane, Right???? What do I not pay you people for? LOL.
Our school in the 70’s served weiner winks! a greasy piece of bread wrapped around a weiner with cheese and then baked. They were disgusting.
Much like a Weiner Abedin I would think.
So the FBI has becondomed itself?

Jane, based on the size of Huma’s mouth (see the picture), I had a raunch, but scientific, observation and comment written, having to do with the calculation of the circumference of that huge cavity and its capacity to envelop a rather large number of square inches and long length of a particular type of object…but, anticipating the queasy feelings it might engender in readers, I decided not to post it.
