Comey and FBI lost credibility over emails: Your Say
This whole thing was a smokescreen to take eyes off WikiLeaks.
FBI Director James Comey said on Sunday that the agency’s review of newly discovered emails did not alter the earlier conclusion that Hillary Clinton should not be prosecuted for her careless handling of classified information as secretary of State.Facebook comments are edited for clarity and grammar:
Day late, dollar short, Comey. Your confusing and ill-advised letter of a week ago did nothing but add a semblance of legitimacy to the contrived and twisted narrative that Donald Trump has been force-feeding Americans for over a year. You accomplished nothing but add a little more mud to the most shameful and embarrassing mess of an election we’ve ever been subjected to. Only God knows what you were thinking.

I am actually furious over this. If the FBI was able to go through these emails that quickly, maybe Comey should’ve held off on announcing, a week before the election, that there were more emails.

Dear FBI, somehow you have managed to unify the country over these emails. Either charge her or keep this drama out of the news. This is why I don’t care about those emails. Clinton is being investigated by the same FBI that put Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on the government watch list. Once again FBI, you are wasting my tax dollars and annoying the American people.
— Geneva Pope
Fact is Comey and the FBI have lost all credibility in the email investigation. We need to remove them and have an independent prosecutor review the FBI’s work to see if it is credible.

This whole thing was a smokescreen to take eyes off WikiLeaks and then clear Clinton right before the election to get her more votes. It was a brilliant strategy — evil and corrupt but brilliant.
