Senate Dems Put Comey On Notice: Answers No Later Than Monday

[Lakhota]

They have questions. He *may* have answers.

A quartet of Senate Democrats wrote a letter to FBI Director James Comey on Saturday formally requesting an expedited update on his recently announced investigation into new emails relating to Hillary Clinton.

Stressing their concern that Comey’s investigation was already being misused for political purposes, Sens. Tom Carper (D-Del.) and Ben Cardin (D-Md.), as well as the top two Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee ― Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) ― asked both Comey and Attorney General Loretta Lynch to provide “more detailed information about the investigative steps that are being taken, the number of emails involved, and what is being done to determine who many of the emails are duplicative of those already reviewed by the FBI.”

The Senators requested that they provide updated information “no later than Monday, October 31, 2016.”

“Unfortunately, Director Comey’s letter has been misunderstood,” the letter reads. “It is already being used for political purposes, creating a misleading impression regarding the FBI’s intent and actions. We strongly believe that it is incumbent on the FBI and Department of Justice to act without delay to dispel any misleading impressions about the emails that have been newly identified, as well as their importance ― or lack thereof ― to the previous investigation involving Secretary Clinton.”

Good for Senate Democrats! Comey deserves to be put on the hot seat.

If the populace is still brain dead enough to elect her. Three things that need to happen.

1. Impeach immediately after inauguration
2. Gridlock govt
3. Deny supreme court justices

Why are Dem Senators politicizing an FBI Investigation?

 

[ScienceRocks]

Comey violated the Hatch Act, and he disobeyed his boss, Ms. Lynch.

He needs to be prosecuted for the former, and fired/asked for his resignation for the latter.

 

[hjmick]

Oooo... Thy drew a red line in the sand... Monday or else... Nothing else...

 

[Vigilante]

He simply pulls an Eric Holder and refuses to answer....What can they do to him?

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Why are you politicizing an active FBI investigation?

This is what happens when you nominate a candidate who was under an active FBI Investigation

D'uh....

Lol,

The people will elect her because they want to live within a first world country with a government that invest. Your ideas aren't the majority...That is why your party cheats and gridlocks everything...People are getting sick of it.

 

[owebo]

It's an investigation....I remember democrats telling us we need to give the FBI space to do their jobs....

Relax, it will come out in due time....until then, fuck your hitlery.....

There is nothing going to happen with any hot seat. Democrats have no power on their own at present Congress. If the majority decides that there is no hot seat, there isn't going to be one. That's just that. Democrats just blowing hot air up to each others ass.

 

[The Irish Ram]

I don't think a quartet of Democrats have the power to determine the steps or length of time of an FBI investigation, or what the FBI is required to make public while investigating.

They want the FBI to toss them a bone at this point that they can try to refute and confidently "move forward" to tomorrow's scandal...

 

[HenryBHough]

Answers by Monday or they'll what?

Throw a tantrum?

Tell their thugs to burn New York?

Maybe what people are really sick of is Washington corruption like we have now. If so, Trump will win. If they want to continue to have corruption, Hillary wins.

You are using big words for them to understand like corruption. Cor...corr..crrec...fuck, what dat mean?

There was no direct confrontation between Lynch or Yates and Comey. Instead, the disagreements were conveyed to Comey by Justice Department staff, who advised the FBI chief his letter would be against department policy to not comment on investigations close to an election, the officials said.
While there was no explicit order not to send the letter, department officials expressed concern that what Comey wanted to do was contrary to how the department does business given how close this was to the election. They added it was contrary to department policies and procedures, one law enforcement source said.

So what are the liberals asking, that Comey rush on their behalf; work Saturday and Sunday to make them happy?

You better hope the Dems do not have 50 or more seats. And probably they can buy three to four GOP senators if they need them.
