Watchdog sees errors, not bias, in Comey’s Clinton probe

According to ex-FBI man Josh Campbell – who worked for both Comey and ex-FBI director Robert Mueller – the report was not good news for the agency.

Trump said Friday, as he has before, that the Mueller probe, too, “has been totally discredited”. “There was total bias”.

“I’m not talking about Comey”, Cortes exclaimed”. While Horowitz says Comey treated Clinton unfairly, Trump has long argued that Comey let Clinton off easy.

President Donald Trump on Friday used a 500-page internal watchdog report issued by the Justice Department to declare himself entirely absolved in Robert Mueller’s Russian Federation investigation.

Right?!” Strzok responded by saying, “No.

However, the inspector general did not find political considerations affected the outcome of either agent’s work.

Strzok said he did not interpret Page’s text to mean the Federal Bureau of Investigation should treat Clinton differently because she might become president, and maintains no decision was made on that basis.

The report Trump was referring to actually found no evidence that the prosecutors handling the Hillary Clinton email probe were motivated by politics. So to the extent that this report absolves the president of wrongdoing in the sense of firing Director Comey because it was a justified action because call me erred. That was sent just weeks before he threw the race into upheaval by reopening the case over Weiner’s laptop.
