did Horowitz give any reasoning for why he wont charge Comey with the leaking?


nope basically the only legal recommendation was;

The OIG has provided this report to the FBI and to the Department of Justice Office of Professional Responsibility for action they deem appropriate.


Unlike the Mueller Report, it did not deliberate over whether charges should be recommended without recommending them.
At the DoJ, Barr declined to prosecute and the media reports from the previous few weeks/months indicate that it was a combination of 'wouldn't amount to serious charges', 'would be a distraction' and 'would be perceived as retaliatory'. Basically, the Hillary Clinton calculation: He's not worth it. For him to be disgraced and retired is enough. McCabe is still on the hook because he lied to FBI officials multiple times in addition to his leaks, and his leaks were of more sensitive materials.

But this should really settle the case on whether Comey was pure or not: Not. He leaked, he lied, he schemed to undermine Trump, he abused his office and tried to roleplay hoover.
The antics surrounding his attempts to ambush and trip up Trump reek of amateur hour. Did he really think he was going to catch Trump on some crackpot story of Russian hookers and he'd achieve it with cloak and dagger techniques and two-bit spying operations?

DOJ declines to prosecute Comey despite finding that he leaked info

Comey wrote seven memos during the first few months of Trump’s presidency, detailing one-on-one meetings in which Comey says Trump demanded loyalty and tried to influence the actions of the FBI, which is supposed to enforce the law in an impartial manner.

The Inspector General’s report said Comey should not have held on to the memos after he was fired because they were official FBI documents. Comey gave one of them to his friend Dan Richman and told him to share it with a New York Times reporter, according to the report. Richman declined to comment.

Congress made redacted versions of those memos public last year.

FBI spokesman Brian Hale said the report underscored the need for all agency employees, regardless of position, to obey rules about official records. The Justice Department declined to comment.




It seems Comey was fired BEFORE he leaked the memo, which is why they won't prosecute him.

this is odd - the media told us that drumpf is an authoritarian dictator who uses political power to punish everyone he doesn’t like

which is funny because this overgrown subversive judas Comey deserves to be slapped to leavenworth

this isn't the early days

this can be done responsibly. Trump sees things and gets passionate about them and this happened when he visited Paradise

Selective and responsible logging is a reasonable thing to consider

Agreed. However, I really dont have faith in the Trump administration to push for or oversee selective and responsible logging...

a hundred years ago neither would I and I still may not depending on where this goes

the great irony of course is that the warming hoax guy is now trying to deal with all the effects but much like modern hunting and conservation it works out for the best often with our current model

we can let shit burn with devastating effects for people while it works itself out or we can meet nature in the middle and try to make suck less

the left are gonna carry on with the usual Trump is raping and pillaging the earth and destroying the planet but I'll see where he goes with it, or he will change gears tomorrow nobody will hear about this again and I won't be seeing where it goes

Florida's east coast is bracing for what may be its strongest hurricane in nearly three decades as Hurricane Dorian gathers strength over the Atlantic.

If Dorian makes landfall as a Category 4 storm on Monday as forecast, with sustained winds of around 130 mph, it will be the strongest hurricane to strike Florida's East Coast since Andrew in 1992, according to CNN Meteorologist Brandon Miller.
It will also be the fourth year in a row of a hurricane of any strength hitting Florida, the most years in a row since the 1940s.
With the devastation of 2018's Hurricane Michael still fresh in their minds, Floridians are not taking any chances.
