FBI Director James Comey made a big deal of publicly announcing — "I have been authorized by the Department of Justice to confirm ..." — that his agents are investigating Trumpworld over allegations of collusion with Russia in the 2016 campaign. But until asked specifically at Monday's House Intelligence Committee hearing, Comey said nothing about his decision to keep the investigation secret from Congress, the White House (via the National Security Council), the Justice Department and even from his colleagues in the intelligence community.

In the course of questioning, Comey revealed that the investigation began in July 2016. Then, late in the hearing, Comey admitted he kept the existence of the investigation a secret from the chairman and ranking member of the House and Senate intelligence committees until the past month.

So what they are really saying is AG Lynch authorized an investigation of one of the leading GOP candidates a couple months before the election.   She did this only a couple weeks after her secret meeting with Bill Clinton on the Phoenix airport tarmac.

Have Loretta Lynch and Bill Clinton been subpoenaed? If not, why not?

Is Comey angling for an immunity deal?

istm that he has dropped a bombshell here.

These investigations are supposed to be done in secret. What kind of dummy thinks we all need to know everything?
