In reply to the discussion: BREAKING: Senior Congressional Aide Says Chaffetz Tweeted Comey Letter Before Democrats Even Saw It [View all]yallerdawg
(16,104 posts)44. Pelosi Statement on FBI Letter to GOP Congressional Chairmen
San Francisco Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released the following statement in response to FBI Director James Comeys letter to eight Republican Committee Chairmen:

After an exhaustive review of Secretary Clintons use of a personal email server, the FBI concluded that charges would be unreasonable and unjustified. Nothing in Director Comeys letter to the Republican Committee chairs suggests that assessment will or should change.
Republicans have spent months attempting to bully the FBI into changing the conclusion of their review. Sadly but predictably, Republicans are doing their best to misrepresent this letter and warp the FBIs work to serve their partisan conspiracy-mongering against Hillary Clinton.
The Director of the FBI himself stated that, the FBI cannot yet assess whether or not this material may be significant. Furthermore, there is not any indication that this review involves Secretary Clintons own use of emails. The public interest would be served by the FBI providing the facts, rather than allowing Republicans to stoke innuendo and falsehoods 11 days away from a presidential election.

He didn't just allow it to be leaked. He is the one who "leaked" it if you want to call it that.

Chaffetz only re-endorsed trump a few days ago before the letter went public.

Since he tweeted it would this make Chaffetz guilty of it as well since he is an elected official?

Hillary covers her bases. She's smart and fact driven, unlike our most of our media.

I did finally see page 2, but I didn't realize there was a page 3! Even worse in that case.
