Just to set things straight: the FBI did indeed let Hillary get off easy when they closed the investigations during summer.
Then, shortly before the election, Comey thought that Hillary had the election in the bag, so he reopened the investigation in a clumsy attempt at preserving the veneer of impartiality of the FBI during the upcoming Clinton administration. He did not intend to help Trump, he tried to save the public image of his agency.


The reality: they handled the case as they would with any other important person, and Comey's behavior post-interview was wrongheaded. He overrode the standard DOJ policy in an attempt to compensate for the right-wing nutters in this country. He ended up further undermining the integrity and independence of the FBI.

They handled the case with extreme and unusual sloppiness. Perhaps this is indeed how they treat every important/well-connected person, but then it's still wrong. In the final week of the election, he did not compensate for right-wing nutters, he attempted to compensate for the extreme and unjustified slack his agency had cut for Hillary earlier that year.

Maybe you should start another thread with your grievances and we can go from there. I'm currently reading Pete Strzok's book.

I will bet 1k fg that Trump beats Biden.

But I dont know who ^Santara is. I'm not a regular PaRD user

Would prefer a thread made specifically for this with both of us posted then the mediator holds the 1k fg.
Does that sound more reasonable?


Santara is probably considered one of the must trusted and respected posters in PaRD. He's also extremely racist.

She lied about what?


Do you really believe that Hillary Clinton, who has read more classified material than you or I ever will, did not know that "C" meant confidential?

"When asked what the parenthetical 'C' meant before a paragraph within the captioned email, [Clinton] stated she did not know and could only speculate it was referencing paragraphs marked in alphabetical order," read the FBI's notes from the interview.
