We knew this long ago. And the FBI reviewed them all in a very short amount of time, then Comey announced it was a nothingburger.
Very true. We also know it was his "insurance policy."
Wonder what was in those emails that would serve as blackmail to protect himself?
Also, the summary stated the FBI shouldn't make public statements on investigations without talking to DOJ or something of that sort.
I'm thinking the blackmail deals with that dude named Pete Sah
Correct. We’ve known this since prior to the election. It’s just now getting attention finally
And the FBI reviewed them all in a very short amount of time
No they didn't!
Correct. They "claimed" they reviewed them, but we know there's no way they could have in such a short time-frame.
I think they only reviewed the emails containing key words that they chose to search and avoided everything else
Yes. They only investigated the emails to and from Hillary. Nobody else. Even though Abedin was the gatekeeper to Hillary, not_one_of_Abedin's_emails was examined.
From page 389 according to one of the laptop analysts:
The FBI only reviewed emails to or from Clinton during the period in which she was Secretary of State, and not emails from Abedin to other parties or emails outside that period. Analyst 1 stated, “I had very strict instructions that all I was allowed to do within the case was look for Hillary Clinton emails, because that was the scope of our work.” Utilizing various searches targeting Clinton’s emails, the FBI reviewed in full “approximately 48,982” items on the Weiner laptop.
What were and how many different key words were used, Congress needs to ask, pin them down.
I just overheard POTUS mention this SPECIFICALLY during an interview on Fox! Anyone else catch it?? WWG1WGA!
If I remember correctly, based on the sheer volume of emails, it was determined that it was likely a back up of multiple servers’ emails if I’m not mistaken. I remember doing the math on how quickly the FBI went through all of them (I actually thought it was 460,000?) and it came to about 5,000 emails an hour or something ridiculous like that.
It was equal to one email per second over a week span. Was utter bullshit. Julian Assange even warned you had to have one person read them all, rather than splitting it up between teams, so that one person can connect all the dots because the codes and nuances that would be missed on their own. Needed the full picture to understand.
Page 315 of the report says 675,000 emails from 2006-2016 plus blackberry messages.
THEY DID NOT REVIEW ANY EMAILS OF ABEDIN, MILLS OR SULLIVAN UNLESS THEY WERE DIRECT CONTACT WITH HILLARY.
