FBI begins release of Clinton email probe to Congress!
WASHINGTON (PNN) - August 16, 2016 - Early last month, Amerikan Gestapo Federal Bureau of Investigation division Director James Comey declined to recommend charges against former Secretary of State and current global criminal Hillary Clinton for the “extremely careless” manner in which she managed her email server and the classified data contained within it. Immediately after issuing his recommendation, Comey appeared before the House Oversight Committee to account for his decision and, in the process of questioning, revealed that Clinton had not been truthful in statements previously made to Congress.
The bombshell remarks sparked concern among congressional Republicans that Clinton likely committed perjury when testifying before Congress last October, when she claimed, “there was nothing marked classified on my emails, either sent or received.”
Following these revelations, members of the House Oversight Committee began calling for a full release of all relevant documents pertaining to the FBI’s investigation.
According to Director Comey, the Clinton interview was “the last step in a year-long investigation.”
“The entire interview was focused on, ‘So what did you know, what did you see, what is this document,’ that kind of thing,” he added, speaking before the committee.
Now, roughly one month later, the FBI has procured those documents and has begun releasing them piecemeal to the House Oversight Committee for review.
“The FBI has turned over a number of documents related to their investigation of former Secretary Clinton’s use of a personal email server,” said a spokesman for the committee.
“Committee staff is currently reviewing the information that is classified secret. There are no further details at this time,” the spokesman added.
The Clinton camp immediately issued a response to the news, however, calling for FBI materials to be “released in full” and to the public, rather than privately to Congress, to be released by “people with motive”.
Although Comey did not expressly comment on whether Clinton perjured herself during congressional testimony, he did note, “We do not have a basis for concluding she lied to the FBI.”
If Clinton is found guilty of lying before Congress, however, she could face as many as five years in jail, a fine, or both.
