Oct 2016

the non fox related sites have rolled back their headlines. they are all following up on pete williams sourced info.

sure, kkkelly anne and company will shout about it, but they have always been shouting about it.

I'm not as worried now as I was back in july, and I wasn't very worried then.

The FBI has no business releasing investigative information late in election campaigns bucolic_frolic Oct 2016 #26
It would be illegal for them to not review the new materials Cooley Hurd Oct 2016 #42
So they should review them before they speculate in public about them bucolic_frolic Oct 2016 #44

Yes. He knew without a doubt that the letter to GOP committee heads pnwmom Oct 2016 #208
He didn't really say who he's investigating here. hughee99 Oct 2016 #209
He's had these emails for FIVE WEEKS. He could have "gotten away" pnwmom Oct 2016 #210
Out of curiosity, what happens if wikileaks drops something on monday revealing some of these emails hughee99 Oct 2016 #212
If that had happened they could point to the FBI manual and historical precedent pnwmom Oct 2016 #213
The FBI could have pointed to their manual and precedent, but the people who haven't decided yet hughee99 Oct 2016 #214
If he waited till after the election, as he should have, pnwmom Oct 2016 #215
I'm thinking that this info was going to come out, maybe from wikileaks, before the election anyway. hughee99 Oct 2016 #216
The FBI was SUPPOSED to say nothing. The FBI manual bars such statements pnwmom Oct 2016 #217
