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

[Alex.]

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.

Elected officials cannot not circumvent procedure or influence the investigation in any way, any more than Hillary or Trump can.

Comey stepped in a St Bernard pile of dogshit and now he'll have to work frenetically to try to extricate himself from the fiasco. It also have sullied the name of the FBI.

It's going to be a real bad week for Comey, the FBI, and Escroto Trump.

They can coerce them to follow the law, yes, they can.

They tried before Comey made his announcement, that did not work now did it?

Yes it have indeed back in July.

No, the downside (for you) is that it would reinforce our message of the corruption in this administration.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

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.

Ms. Lynch is busy taking the 5th over the Iran deal.

 

[Alex.]

The "or what" regarding Comey's refusal to answer Dems may boil down to the DOJ taking over the review of those emails and providing a preliminary finding as to any Clinton culpability........and, of course, Comey being relieved of his post to go write a book.

That would put more of a stink on this issue.

 

[nat4900]

get real.......Your ilk does NOT need any "reinforcement" regarding how you view this administration.......

The bottom line will be that warts and all, sane folks will stick with Clinton.....The not so sane ones, will go with the charlatan.....So, we'll see if there's more of the former or the latter on Nov. 8th.

 

[Avatar4321]

Oh please, keep this story high on the media's attention. All Donald Trump needs to do is stay off Twitter for the next week and polls tighten before election day

 

[JakeStarkey]

Yeah, Trump will down ten by Friday.

I guess you deliberately omitted Hil-Liar. See where the polls start trending during mid-week.

Correct, the Republicans will vote for Trump no matter what and the Democrats will vote for continued corruption. But the people in the middle is what you better focus on. And those who support Clinton will think twice if they support her enough to go out and vote.

 

[JakeStarkey]

They will begin trending away from DJT by late afternoon Monday.

If you think that the polls will shift a whole 10 points toward Trump because of this...go talk to your momma again.....LOL

 

[BluesLegend]

Dem's foam at the mouth demanding Trump disclose his tax returns, but expected Comey to keep the FBI investigation into Hillary a secret until AFTER the election? What's the matter libs don't voters have a right to know Hillary is again under investigation by the nations top law enforcement agency? The FBI doesn't investigate just anyone, criminal Hillary is in deep doo doo and voters have a right to know before they waste their vote on a felon.

He doesn't need 10 points. Your over-sampled polls are meaningless.
