发帖数: 61690 | 1 Former FBI Director James Comey’s controversial decision to detail the FBI
’s findings in the Hillary Clinton email case without Justice Department
input was influenced by a dubious Russian document that the FBI now
considers to be bad intelligence, The Washington Post reported Wednesday.
The secret document, which purported to be a piece of Russian intelligence,
claimed that former Attorney General Loretta Lynch had privately assured
someone in the Clinton campaign that the investigation into Clinton’s
handling of classified information would go nowhere.
But according to people familiar with the matter, by August the FBI had come
to believe the document was unreliable — and in fact may have been planted
as a fake to confuse the FBI.
Comey made his announcement in July.
The document reportedly described an email supposedly written by then-
Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz and sent
to Leonard Benardo, who is an official with the George Soros organization
Open Society Foundations.
According to the document, Wasserman Schultz claimed Lynch had assured
senior Clinton campaign staffer Amanda Renteria that the investigation would
not go too far.
Supporters of Comey claim that the document gave him good reason to take the
microphone in July, without consulting with Lynch, to announce the close of
the Clinton probe — in great detail.
“It was a very powerful factor in the decision to go forward in July with
the statement that there shouldn’t be a prosecution,” a person familiar
with the matter told the Post. “The point is that the bureau picked up
hacked material that hadn’t been dumped by the bad guys involving Lynch.
And that would have pulled the rug out of any authoritative announcement.”
That decision set off a chain of events that Democrats believe contributed
to Clinton’s shocking loss in November. The White House has also cited
Comey's handling of the close of the probe in its official rationale for the
former director's dismissal earlier this month. | R**********9
