FBI Director James Comey’s Clinton Foundation Connections
A review of FBI Director James Comey’s professional history and relationships shows that the Obama cabinet leader — now under fire for his handling of the investigation of Hillary Clinton — is deeply entrenched in the big-money cronyism culture of Washington, D.C. His personal and professional relationships — all undisclosed as he announced the Bureau would not prosecute Clinton — reinforce bipartisan concerns that he may have politicized the criminal probe.
These concerns focus on millions of dollars that Comey accepted from a Clinton Foundation defense contractor (Lockheed Martin) Comey’s former membership on a Clinton Foundation corporate partner’s board, and his surprising financial relationship with his brother Peter Comey, who works at the law firm that does the Clinton Foundation’s taxes.
Lockheed Martin
When President Obama nominated Comey to become FBI director in 2013, Comey promised the United States Senate that he would recuse himself on all cases involving former employers.
But Comey earned $6 million in one year alone from Lockheed Martin. Lockheed Martin became a Clinton Foundation donor that very year.
Comey served as deputy attorney general under John Ashcroft for two years of the Bush administration. When he left the Bush administration, he went directly to Lockheed Martin and became vice president, acting as a general counsel.
Peter Comey, James Comey's Brother
Who Is Peter Comey?
When our source called the Chinatown offices of D.C. law firm DLA Piper and asked for “Peter Comey,” a receptionist immediately put him through to Comey’s direct line. But Peter Comey is not featured on the DLA Piper website.
Peter Comey serves as “Senior Director of Real Estate Operations for the Americas” for DLA Piper. James Comey was not questioned about his relationship with Peter Comey in his confirmation hearing.
DLA Piper is the firm that performed the independent audit of the Clinton Foundation in November during Clinton-World’s first big push to put the email scandal behind them. DLA Piper’s employees taken as a whole represent a major Hillary Clinton 2016 campaign donation bloc and Clinton Foundation donation base.
DLA Piper ranks #5 on Hillary Clinton’s all-time career Top Contributors list, just ahead of Goldman Sachs.
....After getting an MBA in real estate and urban development from George Washington University in 1998, Peter Comey became an executive at a company that re-designed George Washington University between 2004 and 2007 while his brother was in town working for the Bush administration......
The 143 percent increase in U.S. arms sales to Clinton Foundation donors compares to an 80 percent increase in such sales to all countries over the same time period. Lockheed is a member of the American Chamber of Commerce in Egypt, which paid Bill Clinton $250,000 to speak at an event in 2010. Three days before the speech, Hillary Clinton’s State Department approved two weapons export deals in which Lockheed was listed as the prime contractor. Over the course of 2010, Lockheed was a contractor on 17 Pentagon-brokered deals that won approval from the State Department. Lockheed told IBTimes that its support for the Clinton Foundation started in 2010, while Hillary Clinton was secretary of state.
“Lockheed Martin has periodically supported one individual membership in the Clinton Global Initiative since 2010,” said company spokesperson Katherine Trinidad. “Membership benefits included attendance at CGI annual meetings....”
Was Peter Comey, James Comey's Brother at George Washington University at the same time as Huma Mahmood Abedin? Huma Abedin was at GWU 1995 to 1999.Yes.

Julian Assange claimed Washington elites want Hillary Clinton to win
He said the media, arms industry and foreign money all want her to win
"Banks, intelligence, arms companies, foreign money, etc. are all united behind Hillary Clinton. And the media as well. Media owners, and the journalists themselves."

They should know better than that. Major conflict.

According to Washington D.C. attorney Joe DiGenova, more FBI agents will be talking about the problems at bureau and specifically the handling of the Clinton case by Comey when Congress comes back into session and decides to force them to testify by subpoena.
DiGenova told WMAL radio’s Drive at Five last week, “People are starting to talk. They’re calling their former friends outside the bureau asking for help. We were asked to day to provide legal representation to people inside the bureau and agreed to do so and to former agents who want to come forward and talk. Comey thought this was going to go away.”
He explained, “It’s not. People inside the bureau are furious. They are embarrassed. They feel like they are being led by a hack but more than that that they think he’s a crook. They think he’s fundamentally dishonest. They have no confidence in him. The bureau inside right now is a mess.”
He added, “The most important thing of all is that the agents have decided that they are going to talk.”

Well here's another George Washington University alumni, Peter Strzok. He's 47 years old so that means he was probably at GWU around the same time as Peter Comey and Huma Abedin
Both Peter Strzok and wife Hodgman graduated from Georgetown University. Strzok Graduated from Georgetown University & His Wife Works at the SEC as the associate director of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission since 2008.

you had to love Miko's Manchurian comparison.....I almost fell out of my chair....
RE: FBI Director James Comey’s Clinton Foundation Connections
Comey's friend Peter Strzok, the FBI agent that interviewed Clinton about her emails (while not under oath). The guy that helped gave immunity to Clinton's attorney Cheryl Mills; Clinton aide and lawyer Heather Samuelson; John Bentel, who ran the State Department's information resources management office, Bryan Pagliano, Clinton's former IT aide, and Paul Combetta, an employee at the firm hired to manage her server after she left the State Department. Looks like he's the guy who got the FBI to pay for the GPS Fusion fake dossier. Hes the one that changed Comey's verbiage in Comey's now famous speech. More and more being reported everyday?
I forgot, today Fox News reports that he's the one who trapped Flynn.

Should clarify that to say "possibly", not "probably", but we know that Russians made up a disproportionate amount of investment into Trumps properties around the time Trump was having issues getting loans. We know DeustchBank has deep ties to Russian money laundering since they paid out a fine for doing so, and we know they gave him loans during this same period.
I'm not exactly connecting very disparate dots here, this isnt Pizzagate or Seth Rich.

You do realize you don't have to be under oath when questioned by the FBI for it to be illegal, yes?
How did he "help" give immunity to those people, specifically?
Why do you think he had anything to do with Fusion GPS?
