In a hearing before the Senate Judiciary Comittee, James Comey got grilled by Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa). He probed Director Comey about an article in the New York Times that said that Loretta Lynch gave “political cover” to Hillary Clinton.
*** Let’s take a look at what James Comey said. You can watch the full video below.
Grassley starts:
“The New York Times recently reported that the FBI had found a troubling email among the ones the Russians hacked from Democrat operatives. The email reportedly provided assurances that Attorney General Lynch would protect Secretary Clinton by making sure the FBI investigation, quote-un-quote: �?didn’t go too far’. How and when did you first learn of this document, also who sent it and who received it?”
Comey strikes back:
“That’s not a question I can answer in this forum, Mr. Chairman, �?cause it would call for a classified response. I have briefed leadership of the intelligence committees on that particular issue, but I can’t talk about it here.”
Grassley:
“You can expect me to follow up on that point . . . What steps did the FBI take to determine whether Attorney General Lynch had actually given assurances that the political fix was in, no matter what? Did the FBI interview the person who wrote the email? If not, why not?”
Comey:
“I have to give you the same answer . . . I can’t talk about that in an unclassified setting.”
Comey then finished in telling fashion: “I’m not confirming there was an email, sir . . . I can’t – the subject is classified, and in an appropriate forum, I’d be happy to brief you on it, but I can’t do it in an open hearing.”
Get this the hell our there, y’all! It’s time to drain that darn swamp. Trump, Trump, Trump if you can read this then drain that swamp and start with Comey’s crooked butt. You know what! Get rid of all these GOP RINO’s.
