This was ALWAYS why the email investigation was not going to go forward. Not because of fear of prosecuting Clinton, but fear of prosecuting 44. 

 

Reminder: there was a big to-do before the 2009 inauguration about Obama keeping his Blackberry.

Because of the Presidential Records Act.

 

There is NO WAY they didn't know Hillary's server violated the law.

NYT’s piece claiming IG Report proves ‘Trump is lying’ BACKFIRES spectacularly

 

New York Times, never stop being the New York Times.

 

Seriously.

 

Between NYT and CNN there is SO much to cover.

 

 

From The New York Times:

If you’re trying to do so, I recommend keeping your focus on the big picture. The report addresses one question that’s more important than any other: Did the Justice Department and F.B.I. use their power, as Trump has repeatedly claimed, to help Clinton’s campaign and hurt his?

In the lead-up to the report, Trump’s allies agreed that this was paramount. “The central question in my opinion,” David Bossie, Trump’s former deputy campaign manager, wrote this week on the Fox News website, “is did Hillary Clinton and her cronies get preferential treatment in her email server investigation for political reasons?”

And the report’s answer is clear: No.

 

Wow.

 

Maybe he missed the texts from FBI agents saying they would stop Trump from winning and that his supporters are middle-class to poor ignorant pieces of sh*t.

 

Notice how he encourages his ‘readers’ to keep their focus on the big picture which really means he doesn’t want them to read the report and just take his word for it.

 

Sad trombone, not happening.

Someone said Trump is lying and that's a big new flash for you guys? Wow!

FBI actually doing an investigation, for months now. I guess they will wait till October or something to start screaming maybe she sort of maybe in a way might have done something sort of or almost wrong. 

 

Meanwhile, Trump was openly using his charitable fund as a slush fund which violated all sorts of rules. 

 

But your standard is obviously: If Trump gets caught, just blame Hillary 

 

And that's why this all feels like Trump has a cult

[Deranged Rhino]

Let's take a closer look at one of the key names in the OIG MYE report: 

 

Peter Kadzik

 

 

 

Note this footnote, where the IG catches Kadzik and his lawyer lying about the "heads up" email he sent to Podesta.



Who was Kadzik's supervisor at the time?

 

Sally Yates.

 



 

According to the IG himself, Kadzik should have recused in April of 2015, but he hung around, dealing with the Congressional inquiry (stonewalling in other words) into the MYE until November 2016 - a year and a half later... Odd, right? 

 



 



 

Kadzik told the IG he "did not recall" tipping off Podesta. He also told the IG he "did not recall" begging for his son to get a job with Clinton.

 



 



 

He's a liar, and so comfortable doing it he's willing to double down on his lies to the Inspector General. He's a career fixer - placed into a high position within the DOJ to run defense and deflection for his buddies. 

 

And who are his buddies? Well, get ready for a trip into the heart of darkness, he has a very interesting circle of friends:

 



(Tony Podesta and Kadzik with their wives)

 



 

 

He's also close friends with Neera Tanden, a Clinton acolyte who was a material witness to how HRC's chief technology expert (Brian Pagliano) forwarded "their emails" to the Clinton Foundation. 



 

Kadzik also was part of helping 44's administration bribe Iran to the tune of $1.7 billion:

 



 

He also was a part of giving Lerner a pass for turning the IRS into a political weapon against 44's political opponents:



 

Kadzik is literally up to his eyebrows in scandal after scandal. Somehow always finding himself in position to make things "go away". 

 

He's nothing but a bag man for the Podestas and DNC apparatus. The examples continue: his wife worked for Bill Clinton, and Kadzik worked to get Mark Rich a pardon...

 



 

And there's even more! 

 

Here's Kadzik warning Clinton (through Podesta) about the FBI/DOJ investigation:



 

Here's Kadzik going out to dinner with Podesta the day after HRC's testimony to the Benghazi committee:



 

Here's Podesta, lobbying for Kadzik to get a position in Obama's DOJ, and saying he kept John out of jail:

 



https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/3933

 

He's also friends with this woman:


 

Who made an appearance in one of the more bizarre Podesta email links:

 





 

He's also friends with Craig Smith who has been deeply involved in Clinton's campaigns since 1992:

 







 

The Kadzik connections to Clinton, Podesta, and the DNC are deep and well established - yet he always found himself put into the position of playing defense for those people during multiple DOJ investigations despite the IG believing there was enough reason for him to recuse. 

 

The corruption is real, and being exposed. Look past the headlines and read the material for yourself and you'll see.

Yup. Which is why I was saying over and over last night it's important to read the body itself. The conclusion and summary sections have almost no relation to the content in the body. There are plenty of signs of editing too, whole sections being lifted or cut and pasted from other documents. 

 

It's also worth noting many in the media are conflating this report with the FISA report which is still upcoming. That's also intentional. This investigation was specific and narrow (HRC's emails and the investigation into those). That lays the groundwork for the report to come which is about the FBI investigation into the Trump campaign. And only someone who hasn't read the body, or is a blind partisan, would say the amount of bias evidenced in the body of the report has no impact on the FBI investigation into Trump... not when the man running both investigations texts "We will stop him (from becoming president)" just days after officially opening Crossfire Hurricane. 

 

Over a year and a half of non stop propaganda trying to sell the Russian Collusion narrative have left otherwise intelligent people stupefied. Conditioning is a hell of a thing.

Here are some relevant sections which point to ongoing investigations and criminal prosecutions related to all of this (three different sections):

[B-Man]

In spite of all the material showing FBI agents and lawyers’ disdain for Donald Trump, the OIG report nevertheless concluded there was no political bias at the bureau that had any impact on their actual investigations.

 

Buck Sexton isn’t buying it, and pointed out some heavy-duty irony based on something FBI Director Wray said in his statement yesterday:

 

Quote

 

Buck Sexton

✔ @BuckSexton

 

Pretty sure that proclaiming “we will stop Trump” from being president is evidence of bias when you are an official investigating that person-

But I’m glad the FBI will now be able to hash this out in the anti-bias training it doesn’t need because there was no bias

I apologize for my comment.  I continue to overestimate the intelligence of Donald Trump voters and Republicans when it comes to taking advantage of a political opportunity.  In this case: Bill and Hillary Clinton trying to steal the 2016 US Presidential election.  You see, focusing on the corrupt Clintons with their many, many, many illegalities from the 2016 US Presidential election (including Democrat Primaries) would take the media spotlight away from Donald Trump and...well, never mind.

[Deranged Rhino]

Going to be doing smaller topics about the details of the report over the next few days rather than one massive one in an attempt to make it easier on the eyes... 

 

Starting with:

 

 

 

Not just a treasure trove of endless Weiner jokes, the discovering of Clinton emails on Anthony Weiner's laptop was one of the most controversial and important moments of the MYE investigation. It happened in the climactic months of the 2016 election when NYC FBI agents discovered well over 300,000 (closer to 650,000) emails on Weiner's laptop after issuing a warrant on September 26, 2016 to search his devices in relations to sex crimes against a minor. Comey and McCabe sat on this information, and the laptop itself, for nearly four weeks - only announcing its presence to the world after an inter-agency spat between the SDNY, NYO, DAG and DC forced his hand. 

 

The contents of the laptop itself have been the source of much speculation and controversy. One of the key questions asked at the time was how the FBI managed to read and clear the newly discovered emails so quickly. General Flynn raised that very question in a tweet:

 

 

This isn't just an ordinary suit asking this question, this is the former head of DIA and an expert in the technological tools and time needed to perform this kind of forensic work accurately. This question - how'd they read so many so fast? - was one of about twenty questions I wrote down on a piece of paper before reading the OIG MYE report in full. 

 

So what was discovered?

 

PROBLEMS. Lots of them. 

 

Let's take a look at the key issue. I'll be using parts of the OIG report itself as well as Comey's "Higher Loyalty" throughout the thread:

 

On September 28th, 2016 - two days after the FBI seized the laptop - FBI Assistant Director in Charge (ADIC) of the NYO William Sweeney is informed about the large number of Clinton emails discovered on the laptop. He immediately called Andrew McCabe, the lead agent on the MYE investigation:

 



 

Sweeney, per protocol, informs two Executive Assistant Directors (EADs) of the discovery, one of whom testifies under oath to OIG Horowitz that he too informed McCabe immediately upon learning about the discovery. Per his testimony, there "was no doubt" McCabe "understood the gravity of" the find:

 

 

In Comey's Young Adult masterpiece "A Higher Loyalty", he writes about when McCabe informed him of the emails, saying it happened in passing in early October. Comey tells the OIG the same thing, though concedes it might have been late September. 

 

(1) Higher Loyalty:

 



(2) OIG Report:



 

So we are to believe McCabe understood the gravity of the find right away, but only told Comey in passing. Comey then later said he didn't understand the relevance because he didn't know Weiner and Huma were married. 

 

Who's BS meter is starting to tick? Just wait, it's going to get even nuttier...

 

Because after McCabe becomes aware of the laptop and its contents - nothing happens on the matter for over 21 days. 


That's not opinion, that's the factual discovery made by Horowitz and outlined in his report:

 



 

The rank and file working the matter were so upset by the lack of action, they took the matter to the Deputy Attorney General to force action. (Makes you wonder what was on that laptop that outraged so many NYC FBI agents, doesn't it? I can confirm from multiple sources that many rank and file agents were horrified by what they discovered on the laptop. The words "couldn't sleep" were said to me by two different people connected to the investigation inside the NYO.) The field agents were so outraged they threatened to go not just to the DOJ but to the NY Post as well. 

 

Only AFTER this escalation to the DOJ and press does McCabe act. He starts with a break of dawn email to Comey on October 27th 2016 asking to meet about the MYE:

 

(Higher Loyalty)



 

McCabe does not attend this meeting because according to the OIG report, he was "out of town". We know from other threads and work here that McCabe was in London at that point. Coincidentally a week and a half before Crossfire Hurricane opened, where he was (likely) meeting with British Intelligence Services. 

 

But the meeting happened anyway and Comey is informed that the Weiner laptop has "hundreds of thousands" of Clinton emails, and there's "no chance" a review can be completed before the election. 

 

NO CHANCE - this comes directly from the boots on the ground working the MYE investigation.

 



 

 



 

 

Shortly after this meeting, Comey sends the now infamous letter to Congress reopening the Clinton Email investigation and ignites a firestorm of controversy. 

 

Then, almost is by magic, a technological breakthrough happens at the FBI. The FBI "wizards" found a way to "de-duplicate" the emails, meaning they didn't have to sort through them all, only the ones they hadn't already seen. This allowed the FBI to clear the contents in just 8 days when it had taken over a year to clear just 60k earlier Clinton emails. 

 

Think something smells fishy? Just wait... 

 



 

The source for this story of technological wizardry could well be Peter Strzok himself, the very same man who wanted to "stop" Trump from being elected. He testified to the OIG and said - without detail - that the OTD was able "to do some amazing things" to speed up the process. At no point is the technology explained, and at no point is it explained why this "amazing" technology was only employed for this batch of Clinton emails and not the other searches (which took over a year to complete).  



 

And now we reach the most important part... Ready?

 

According to the FBI and OIG, the FBI's own documentary evidence says because "metadata was largely absent, THE EMAILS COULD NOT BE COMPLETELY, AUTOMATICALLY DE-DUPLICATED." This contradicts everything Comey and Strzok said prior.

 



There is no explanation for this discrepancy in the entire report. None. Strzok and Comey said "amazing things" de-duplicated the emails but the FBI's own evidence says the emails could not be de-duplicated.

 



 

Think this might be a point that's followed up on come Monday when Horowitz testifies before Congress? It better be. 

 

How did hundreds of thousands of emails get distilled down to 3,077? Did anyone read any of the emails inside the FBI at all? There's ZERO reference to that having occurred in the entire OIG report, nor in any of the hours of testimony, congressional letters, or interviews on the subject over the past two years... 

 

Why would McCabe, Comey, Strzok and others within the leadership of the FBI hide the laptop initially and then lie about magically clearing it without reading the emails contained therein? 

 

My money is that it has to do with this:

Two things: 

 

1) There are massively powerful institutions and organizations who will fight to the death to keep this kind of systemic darkness from coming to light.

2) If the truth of the widespread nature of this horror was revealed all at once to the world, it would break a lot of people. I mean, destroy their minds.

 

Both the side trying to protect this systemic horror, and the side trying to stop the horror, have vested interests in disclosing this as slowly as possible to the masses.

There's a lot of disinformation out there, which sensationalizes the horror in an attempt to get people to not take it seriously. Remember, "Fake News" was reborn as a catch-phrase not by Trump, but by the Washington Post when talking about this subject. It backfired on them spectacularly, but that was the motivation. To label this "fake" and "ridiculous" so that any discussion of it would be met with ridicule by the average person on the street.

Think something smells fishy? Just wait... 

 



 

The source for this story of technological wizardry could well be Peter Strzok himself, the very same man who wanted to "stop" Trump from being elected. He testified to the OIG and said - without detail - that the OTD was able "to do some amazing things" to speed up the process. At no point is the technology explained, and at no point is it explained why this "amazing" technology was only employed for this batch of Clinton emails and not the other searches (which took over a year to complete).  



 

And now we reach the most important part... Ready?

 

According to the FBI and OIG, the FBI's own documentary evidence says because "metadata was largely absent, THE EMAILS COULD NOT BE COMPLETELY, AUTOMATICALLY DE-DUPLICATED." This contradicts everything Comey and Strzok said prior.

 



There is no explanation for this discrepancy in the entire report. None. Strzok and Comey said "amazing things" de-duplicated the emails but the FBI's own evidence says the emails could not be de-duplicated.

 



 

Think this might be a point that's followed up on come Monday when Horowitz testifies before Congress? It better be. 

 

How did hundreds of thousands of emails get distilled down to 3,077? Did anyone read any of the emails inside the FBI at all? There's ZERO reference to that having occurred in the entire OIG report, nor in any of the hours of testimony, congressional letters, or interviews on the subject over the past two years... 

 

Why would McCabe, Comey, Strzok and others within the leadership of the FBI hide the laptop initially and then lie about magically clearing it without reading the emails contained therein? 

 

My money is that it has to do with this: 



 
 

 

 

That is some great work and deserves to be seen by many more.
