Clinton Criminality, Again
It appears that the FBI has done the right thing at last. They have reopened the investigation into the vast landscape of Clinton criminality.
This step, following a prior decision recommending NO prosecution for Mrs. Clinton’s laundry list of illegal activities, is extremely unusual and one can only wonder what factors are in play.
Is it that recent emails (discovered, by the way, on the personal phone of that pervert at large, Anthony Weiner) are so damning that criminal prosecution would be unavoidable from the perspective of higher courts?
Is it that Mr. Comey’s personal and professional integrity (relating to his decision, a month ago, not to recommend prosecution of Hillary) have been questioned vigorously by reputable, respected, and nonpartisan commentators? Is Comey afraid of FUTURE leaks that will cast aspersions on him and the FBI? Is Comey concerned that Donald Trump may actually win the election, at which time prosecution of Mr. Comey himself might be a possibility?
What ever the dynamic involved, I think Comey’s reopening the investigation is the correct thing to do, and I think it will go a long way to reasserting one of our most important core values: “No one is above the law.”
