In Which Despair for our Union
May. 9th, 2017 07:11 pmSo let me get this straight.
(1) Ten months ago, FBI director Comey makes an unprecedented decision to politicize not charging Hilary Clinton for using a private email server by deriding her IT policies in a press conference, going against DoJ policy in doing so.
(2) For the next four months, Donnie Trump uses this press conference as the backbone of his campaign, saying that she's "Crooked Hilary" and we should lock her up.
(3) Russian hackers break into Democratic emails, posting them over next few months. Trump publicly encourages them to break into Hilary's emails too.
(4) Six months ago, Comey sends an unprecedented letter to Congress saying they were reopening investigations into Hillary based on what would turn out to be largely repetitive emails that Hilary had nothing to do with.
(5) Statisticians say Comey's letter probably decided the election. Trump is elected 45.
(6) When called before Congress, Comey reveals that he's been investigating Trump's connections to Russia too, for over a year. But he never felt the need to give press conference or send letters about that.
(7) Comey continues to lead investigation into Trump's Russian connections.
(8) A week ago, Justice Department is told to find an excuse to fire Comey.
(9) Meanwhile, Grand Jury summons go out related to Trump/Russian connections.
(10) Hours later, Comey is fired. Trump is shocked, shocked to find that screw-ups were going on in the Hillary investigations. Ten months ago. You know, with that press conference that Trump built his campaign on.
BUT HER EMAILS.
