They were conspiring to do a press release?
OMG.. when did issuing press releases become illegal?
They were all over the Russians with that release of the wikileak doc. Stone had to get pardoned for it. Pleazzzze.
Gee. I'm sure Clinton is worried...as we all watch the Trump insurrection scandal get deeper and deeper.
Is it at all concerning to you that the FBI asks the victim of a crime before they release information about the victim and the crime to the press? Nope. I don't find that concerning. I find it concerning that you think the FBI should not talk to the victims before they do a press release.

They said russia did it.
then they said trump colluded with russia.
its hillary creating her own conspiracy theory, and using a complicit fbi to do so.
yer goose is cooked, fuckstick.

yes. victims should not be dictating lies about evidence and findings to the f.bi.

nobody says press releases are illegal.
The fbi offering up their press release to edit by a victim reeks of conspiracy.
if you can't see that you're just dumb.
Michael Sussmann is FBI. He was paid to set the narrative. The entire Mueller investigation was a sham.
No. The press release was altered by the FBI, after an outside lawyer suggested an improvement.

I believe Michael SUssmann is a lawyer.
the clinton campaign was one of his clients.
are you fucking dumb?

Actually, it is probably the law. Law enforcement can't release the names of victims without their consent.
Are you dumb? Did you just lie back and enjoy it?
Sussmann is an FBI lawyer. I'm trying to show the Clinton/FBI collusion.
Here we agree. The moment a die-hard Republican was chosen to "investigate" his party-mate's collusion with the Russians, it was clear the fix was in.... that he's futz around for a bit to create the appearance of an investigation, but would carefully avoid turning over any stones that might reveal something.
But, as cynical as I was about it, even I didn't think he'd make as little effort at creating even the illusion of an investigation as he did. Like I assumed he'd get Trump under oath and then only ask him "safe" questions. But, instead, he never even bothered putting him under oath.
Then, when his report came out, he was up-front from the very start that he'd decided not to bother looking into the collusion question at all, but instead had focused very narrowly on just the question of criminal conspiracy. So, he raised the bar on himself, and then didn't make even the most basic of efforts to get over the bar. I expected a subtler kind of hackery, but he went "full Republican operative."

Normal people call that the clinton campaign having approval power over fbi press releases.
Is that good with you?
You need to heighten your vistas above playing word games to justify totalitarian criminal lies.
you're better than this, dum dum.
Freddy Figbottom
Was it me?
this wasn't about that, you retarded, ape-faced, goon.

No. Can you point out even a single normal person who calls it that? Heck, can you even point out a single SANE person who calls it that?
Obviously, giving a person a chance to comment on a press release that concerns them before it goes out isn't giving approval power. It's just a way to make sure you're not missing anything important. It's the same reason, for example, that reporters contact the subject of a story for comment before they go out with it. They want the subject to have a chance to call their attention to anything they may have gotten wrong, or any important context that may be missing. If you go to press with something without that kind of review, it's a lot more likely you'll make an embarrassing error.
