Comey Drafted ‘Exoneration Statement’ Before Interviewing Hill

Surprise, surprise, surprise.

James Comey had already predisposed himself to giving Hillary a pass on the private server scandal even before she was interviewed — but not recorded — by the FBI (also not under oath).

Actually this isn’t much of a surprise at all.

According to Sens. Chuck Grassley and Lindsey Graham redacted records and testimony from FBI agents demonstrate pretty clearly that Comey had already drafted his ‘exoneration statement’ before ever speaking with Hillary.

So obviously the fix was in on ensuring the server scandal wouldn’t result in an indictment of the potentially first female president.

This new revelation coupled with Loretta Lynch’s ‘coincidental’ meeting with Bill Clinton on the tarmac paint a fairly clear picture of how all of this was coordinated — along with the DNC’s fraudulent primary — to coronate Hillary.

Here’s more from Fox News…

Then-FBI Director James Comey began drafting a statement exonerating Hillary Clinton in the investigation into her private email use before interviewing key witnesses, including Clinton herself, two Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee said Thursday.

“Conclusion first, fact-gathering second—that’s no way to run an investigation,” Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley and South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham wrote in a letter this week to the FBI. “The FBI should be held to a higher standard than that, especially in a matter of such great public interest and controversy.”

Grassley and Graham said they learned about Comey’s draft “exoneration statement” after reviewing transcripts of interviews with top Comey aides.

“According to the unredacted portions of the transcripts, it appears that in April or early May of 2016, Mr. Comey had already decided he would issue a statement exonerating Secretary Clinton,” the senators said.

They added, “That was long before FBI agents finished their work. Mr. Comey even circulated an early draft statement to select members of senior FBI leadership. The outcome of an investigation should not be prejudged while FBI agents are still hard at work trying to gather the facts.”

Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee in 2016, was investigated by the FBI for using a private email address and server to handle classified information while serving as secretary of state.
