When the former FBI director James Comey closed the Hillary Clinton probe a second time, he certified all of the Anthony Weiner emails on Huma Abedin’s laptop were reviewed. Abedin was and is Hillary Clinton’s top aide. Hundreds of thousands of her emails were discovered on her husband’s laptop with his perverted emails. He’s a convicted pedophile.
THE BIG LIE
James Comey told Congress at that time that “thanks to the wizardry of our technology,” the FBI was able to eliminate the vast majority of messages on the Weiner laptop as “duplicates” of emails they’d previously seen. Tireless agents, he claimed, then worked “night after night after night” to scrutinize the remaining material.

“Most of the emails were never examined, even though they made up potentially 10 times the evidence” of what was reviewed in the original year-long case that Comey closed in July 2016, said a law enforcement official with direct knowledge of the investigation, according to Paul Sperry at RealClearInvestigations.

They didn’t look at all the emails as they claimed. Now The Washington Post is trying to take credit for the discovery Paul Sperry made in 2016, after ignoring it for...
