RSSSean Hannity 11/6/17: Early FBI Director James Comey Draft Accused Clinton of Gross Negligence on Hillary Emails … Then Changed it to Extremely Careless Behavior (VIDEO)
THE FIX WAS IN WITH FORMER FBI DIRECTOR COMELY AND HILLARY CLINTON EMAILS …
From The Hill, why did former FBI Director James Comey changing the wording from his initial draft from “gross negligent” to “extremely careless?” Hmm, the more and more the skin is pealed off this onion, the more it appears that the fix was in when it came to Comey charging Hillary Clinton for her email scandal. No wonder so many of the FBI rank and file were up in arms when no charges were made.
An early draft of former FBI Director James Comey’s statement closing out the Hillary Clinton email case accused the former secretary of State of having been “grossly negligent” in handling classified information, newly reported memos to Congress show.
The tough language was changed to the much softer accusation that Clinton had been “extremely careless” in her handling of classified information when Comey announced in July 2016 there would be no charges against her.
The change is significant, since federal law states that gross negligence in handling the nation’s intelligence can be punished criminally with prison time or fines.
The draft, written weeks before the announcement of no charges, was described by multiple sources who saw the document both before and after it was sent to the Senate Judiciary Committee this past weekend.
“There is evidence to support a conclusion that Secretary Clinton, and others, used the email server in a manner that was grossly negligent with respect to the handling of classified information,” reads the statement, one of Comey’s earliest drafts from May 2, 2016.
The sources who had seen the early draft, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media, said the draft statement was subsequently changed in red-line edits on or around June 10 to conclude that the handling of 110 emails containing classified information that were transmitted by Clinton and her aides over her insecure personal email server was “extremely careless.”
The documents turned over to Congress do not indicate who recommended the key wording changes, the sources said.
Memos show that at least three top FBI officials were involved in helping Comey fashion and edit the statement, including Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, General Counsel James Baker and chief of staff Jim Rybicki.
The Senate Judiciary Committee on Monday evening sent a letter to current FBI Director Christopher Wray demanding the FBI identify who made the changes and why.
“Apparently, as of May 2016, then-Director Comey and other FBI officials believed the facts fit that gross negligence standard until later edits were made,” Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) wrote to Wray in the letter demanding more information.

Comey is a guilt ridden obama puppet who followed in Mueller’s footsteps, a huge political cover-up for Obama, Hillary, the Obama administration. Mueller’s firm was a big contributor to Hillary’s campaign knowing what a crook she is. That in itself tells you what kind of a man he is. Protect and support those you’re criminally involved with. He’s part of the witch hunt that should be shut down.
Fine, take down Manafort and Gates but you’ve known about their crimes long before Trump. Trump had nothing to do with any of this but Mueller brings it up now and says he stumbled over it. Yea right! He did it so the media would focus on this and highlight the fact that it was Trump’s ex-campaign manager. Well so what, it was the Republicans idea to use Manafort, not Trump’s. But why now…because bigger issues surfaced over the Uranium One deal that Mueller knew about and did nothing. Recently, the very day after the Uranium Deal news was released Mueller immediately popped up out of the blue announcing his indictments. Changing the media focus off of….again…Hillary Clinton and her criminal scandals.
Mueller needs to remove himself or get fired. The Uranium One Deal was never submitted to Congress, an illegal act of $145 million that he was involved in. He should be investigated…not investigating. Web sites are calling him a fraud.
