Apparently, that story wasn’t accurate. FBI officials privately confirmed to ProPublica that Comey’s account of Abedin’s actions just doesn’t hold water. In reality, Abedin only forwarded a few emails, not “hundreds and thousands” as Comey claimed. Also, none of the messages she sent were marked as classified at the time they were sent. The FBI suspects other emails appeared on Weiner’s computer as a result of Abedin’s Blackberry backups. It’s unclear if any of the 12 classified emails Comey said they found there had actually been among the handful she forwarded.

The FBI originally planned to send a letter to Congress this week correcting Comey’s version of events, but that plan is apparently still on hold. In the meantime, congressional Republicans have still been using Comey’s story to further litigate Clinton’s emails. During a hearing on Monday, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) asked former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper how he’d react if an employee had sent “hundreds or even thousands” of emails to their spouse, obviously referencing Comey’s testimony.

This is only the latest example of Comey exaggerating, misrepresenting, or otherwise distorting the details of the FBI’s investigation into Clinton’s emails.

emphasis mine

remember, Comey wrote a letter to Congress about the email investigation, which jasoninthehouse promptly put into the reich wing propaganda machine otherwise known as the media.

Did he write the letter at the request of the GrOPers?

Donnie blew kisses to Comey across the room for a reason.

1. I trust comey

about as much as I trust tRump and the rest of his deplorable's.

And that ain't very fucking much, more like zilch, nada, none, not one f'n bit

[JTFrog]

2. Fuck Comey.

And his apologists too.

I will harbor ill feelings toward that piece of shit my entire life.

[Sculpin Beauregard]

3. Please don't be fucking idiots, all. Trump

wants Comey gone and he's recruiting us to do it.

He's trying to discredit the entire FBI, and go free.

Please, do not be idiots. Do not do Putin/Bannon's work for them.

4. Trump is laughing his ass off.

I'm sure that the person he replaces Comey with (after Democrats destroy him) will do a bang-up job.

[Sculpin Beauregard]

5. i know. Active measures/propaganda out in full force.

First they will go after FBI credibility, then they will try to replace the generals.

At that point, Trump owns America and democracy is dead in USA.

[virtualobserver]

18. Trump is REALLY laughing his ass off now.....

The "liberal media" gave him his opening to fire Comey.......

[Sculpin Beauregard]

19. I tried to warn and was shot down. God save your soul, USA. My thoughts are with you from Canada 🇨🇦

[oasis]

6. Historical fact: No Comey election interference, no Trump presidency.

[Sculpin Beauregard]

7. Future fact: no FBI, no Trump Accountability

No America as you have known it, no democracy, GOP rule forever.

[oasis]

8. "Mr. Squeaky Clean" Comey screwed up big time. Again. He needs

to be called on it.

[Sculpin Beauregard]

9. You prefer Trey Gowdy?

[oasis]

10. Trey Gowdy had nothing to do with Comey's big footing election 2016.

[Sculpin Beauregard]

11. Look, Cheeto wants Comey gone. And now some Dems do.

The misinformation campaign is still hard at work.

Whose cause is helped if Comey is removed? If you think it's Dems, you are deluded.

[oasis]

12. "Deluded" ???

Anyone who believes the political hack, Comey, running the FBI, is in the best interest of the American people, is deluded.

[Sculpin Beauregard]

13. We're going to have to disagree. I've researched

as much available info about Comey as possible - going back years ( Ashcroft hospital incident, anyone?) and I think he's a patriot, not a hack.

Remember last summer, when Comey wanted to go public with TrumpRussia investigation? And Obama admin said no, it would look too partisan? Did you even know about that?

See, Obama and a lot of us miscalculated in that we thought Trump would not win. But he did.

and now here we are.

[oasis]

14. Lt. Gen. Flynn was also thought to be a patriot.

But time often brings about changes.

With that, I'll rest my case.

Cheers.

[Sculpin Beauregard]

15. No, Flynn was thought to be problematic within military a long time

before he got in Trump admin. He had a bad reputation.

Have a great day, yourself.

16. No where did I read or hear that Comey wanted to disclose the Russian story before the election. In

fact it was just the opposite. Comey showed his colors way back when he said Hillary didn't commit a crime but was "grossly negligent". Patriot my ass. There are no patriots in the republican party.

[Sculpin Beauregard]

17. Please see excerpt from Newsweek article, below

FBI Director James Comey attempted to go public as early as the summer of 2016 with information on Russia’s campaign to influence the U.S. presidential election, but Obama administration officials blocked him from doing so, two sources with knowledge of the matter tell Newsweek.

Well before the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) accused the Russian government of tampering with the U.S. election in an October 7 statement, Comey pitched the idea of writing an op-ed about the Russian campaign during a meeting in the White House Situation Room in June or July.
