James Comey even used a FAKE Russian document to attack Hillary Clinton.
"A phony Russian document influenced the way the FBI handled the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s server, according to
The Washington Post.
During the middle of the 2016 presidential primary season, the bureau received a purported Russian intelligence document detailing an implicit deal between Clinton’s campaign and the Justice Department regarding the inquiry into her private email server, the paper said.
The document, obtained by the FBI, described how the Attorney General at the time, Loretta Lynch, had privately assured a Clinton campaign member that the email investigation would not go too far, the Post reported.
Receipt of the document then allegedly helped influence the July decision by then-FBI Director James Comey to announce on his own,
without the Justice Department’s involvement, that the investigation into Clinton was finished and that no charges against Clinton would be forthcoming.
The public announcement set off an uproar on both sides of the political spectrum."
