More to come.

Much more on the IG report to come. But for now, I’ll leave you with this line.

“I’m not a hugger because I’m a giraffe."

About those calendars:

"I had gotten a bunch of Putin 2017 calendars where he is in various, glorious displays of Russian patriotism for each month.”

"And the moment she took office, the FBI is dead, the Department of Justice is dead and she’s dead as president….”

More from Comey, explaining concerns about legitimacy of Clinton presidency if he didn’t send letter.

COMEY: “I am sure I was influenced by the tacit assumption that Hillary Clinton was sure to be the next President.”

DOJ IG report also focuses on FBI contacts with reporters. Even charted out FBI contacts with unnamed journalists:

Here’s Attorney General Jeff Sessions on the IG report:

Attorney for FBI’s Peter Strzok says his belief that the Russian interference probe was more important than the Clinton email probe "is evidence of Special Agent Strzok’s lucidity, not his bias.”

Former DOJ congressional liaison Peter Kadzik hit up @brianefallon about getting his 25-year-old son a job when Fallon joined the Clinton campaign.

There are like a dozen separate stories in this report, easy.

FBI agent told another employee that Clinton assistant who helped a Chappaqua residence “lied his ass off” in FBI interview.

Discussing the tarmac meeting, @MelanieRNewman calls Loretta Lynch "the most polite, Southern person alive.”
