Trump's Breitbart Presidential Campaign Crooked, Rigged.

It looks like the FBI has a major legal problem leaks from supposed "retired" agents.

The Guardian's 'The FBI is Trumpland' article wrote this:
Deep antipathy to Hillary Clinton exists within the FBI, multiple bureau sources have told the Guardian, spurring a rapid series of leaks damaging to her campaign just days before the election.

Federal law and longstanding FBI policy prohibit employees from trying to influence elections. Since Comey’s letter, FBI agents have leaked information about a separate investigation into the Clinton Foundation.
Here's hoping Rudy Giuliani gets an FBI visit real soon over the following amazing admission. Giuliani hedged on saying anything at first, but ego stepped in and he blurted this out:
“I did nothing to get it out, I had no role in it. Did I hear about it? You’re darn right I heard about it, and I can’t even repeat the language that I heard from the former FBI agents.”
Here's the lead up with Rachel Maddow, and Giuliani's jaw dropping Fox News admission that supposed "former" FBI agents slipped him the leak. Talk about rigged:



Creating fictions and conspiracy theories is a Breitbart feature, and Trump's campaign took off on it. Here's a great analysis of the whole Trump campaign that we can someday look back on and say, we were warned:



We really did know what was happening at the time of this election, but few people supporting Trump listened. Here's a little of Charlie Sykes on Trump:

Holder on Comey: "He made a serious mistake...broke fundamental principles...serious error with potentially severe implications."

Former AG Eric Holder's shocking take down of Comey:
Eric Holder: James Comey is a good man, but he made a serious mistake: I am deeply concerned about FBI Director James B. Comey’s decision to write a vague letter to Congress about emails potentially connected to a matter of public, and political, interest. That decision was incorrect. It violated long-standing Justice Department policies and tradition. And it ran counter to guidance that I put in place four years ago ... The department has a practice of not commenting on ongoing investigations. The department also has a policy of not taking unnecessary action close in time to Election Day that might influence an election’s outcome. 

Director Comey broke with these fundamental principles. I fear he has unintentionally and negatively affected public trust in both the Justice Department and the FBI. And he has allowed — again without improper motive — misinformation to be spread by partisans with less pure intentions. Already, we have learned that the importance of the discovery itself may have been overblown. According to the director himself, there is no indication yet that the “newly discovered” emails bear any significance at all. And yet, because of his decision to comment on this development before sufficient facts were known, the public has faced a torrent of conspiracy theories and misrepresentations.

This controversy has its roots in the director’s July decision to hold a news conference announcing his recommendation that the Justice Department bring no charges against Hillary Clinton. Instead of making a private recommendation to the attorney general — consistent with Justice Department policy — he chose to publicly share his professional recommendation, as well as his personal opinions, about the case. That was a stunning breach of protocol. It may set a dangerous precedent for future investigations. It was wrong.

In this instance, he has committed a serious error with potentially severe implications. It is incumbent upon him — or the leadership of the department — to dispel the uncertainty he has created before Election Day. It is up to the director to correct his mistake — not for the sake of a political candidate or campaign but in order to protect our system of justice and best serve the American people.

Ryan the "Pot," calling the Kettle Black!!!

Really, after all of the document dumps we've seen under Scott Walker and every other politician looking to con the voters, Paul Ryan is angry the FBI did a doc dumb on Hillary Clinton's emails. Gee, and there was so much there...might as well complain anyway:


Speaker Paul Ryan on Tuesday morning blasted the FBI for releasing documents from its probe of Hillary Clinton’s email arrangement just as people were skipping town for a long Labor Day weekend last Friday ... 
Aw, poor baby, that's never happened before. 
On WRJN Wisconsin radio, host Glenn Klein suggested the FBI has become “an arm of the Clinton campaign.” Ryan concurred with his outrage.

“Yeah… I can’t believe that they would do what is such a patently political move. It makes them look like political operatives instead of law enforcement officers.”

Trump's ad wrong about Clinton emails, but then you knew that right?

When it comes to Hillary Clinton's "classified" emails, I thought this recent bit of information clarified matters a bit:

So with that, do you think Trump is even aware of the above statements? You be the judge from Trump's latest Hillary attack ad:
