The FBI did not have a search warrant Saturday to review newly obtained emails linked to the investigation into Hillary Clinton's email server.
FBI Director James Comey sent a letter to lawmakers Friday revealing the emails despite agents not having yet received a warrant to read them, Yahoo News reported.
Investigators still had not secured a warrant to review the emails as of Saturday night, Yahoo News reported. That echoed reporting from CBS News earlier Saturday.
One of the government officials quoted by Yahoo News said the FBI director "had no idea what was in the content of the emails" when he wrote the letter to lawmakers.

(3,226 posts)Comey has a lot of explaining to do, the DOJ needs to force him to immediately testify under oath and in public as to how and why he would make a statement like he did. We can only hope some honest FBI agents come forward and expose Comey for the troll that he seems to be.

Ninni Laaksonen, a former Miss Finland in the Miss Universe competition that Trump once owned, alleged in an interview with the Finnish newspaper Ilta-Sanomat that Trump groped her before an appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman in 2006.
Before the show we were photographed outside the building, Laaksonen said, according to a translation provided by The Telegraph. Trump stood right next to me and suddenly he squeezed my butt. He really grabbed my butt.
I dont think anybody saw it but I flinched and thought: What is happening?
Laaksonen said that she had been told at other events that year that Trump found her attractive because she reminded him of his wife, Melania, whom he had married the year before.
Somebody told me there that Trump liked me because I looked like Melania when she was younger, Laaksonen said. It left me disgusted.

(17,802 posts)The FBI has all the warrants they need. The existing warrants are enough. And even if they did need one, which they don't, there are judges available to the 7/24 to provide them.
This is about the dumbest report ever.
They have no doubt already analysed them and know if any are unique. Their tools are very good and the amount of data is very small (likely less than 2gb).
They know. It doesn't mean come isn't an ass, but he never needed a new warrant.
