via @nytimes. Good job @charlie_savage 1/ There is no DIJ rule not to continue investigations. Only informal political rule at DOJ to take no official action likely to go public close that could affect election. (Even “60” days is not clear rule.” nytimes.com/2022/09/04/us/…
2/ But anyone who still tries to defend on any basis what @Comey did doesn’t know or care about facts. Someone like @Comey or his minions who give false narrative defense.
3/ Comey had no right ever - ever - to hold press conference or send out letter to congress without AG or DAG permission. Period. No answer to that 100% rule.
4/ offering his public opinion of evidence without an indictment - as in @HillaryClinton was “extremely careless” on emails was and remains a firing offense.
5/ apart from Comey being wrong on the faces - he finally was forced to admit at congressional hearing in Sept 2016 not one of 33,000 @HillaryClinton emails was properly labeled “classified” at any level. Not one
6/ the only one out of 33,000 he pointed to has “confidential”
in the middle of a para. @Comey admitted to Pa Rep. Matt in public hearing that was not properly labeled.

7/on Oct 31, 2016, when Comey letter went public, @HillaryClinton wd’ve won big. See 538: fivethirtyeight.com/features/the-c…
No doubt she wd’ve won Pa, Wisc, and Mich and election (gap in all 3 was 14k/14m votes)=election

8/ Finally time for mainstream media to stop comparing @HillaryClinton emails handling with Trump taking conspicuously labeled top secret docs to Mar a Lago. No comparison at all. Those are the facts.
