(Dagbladet): Only eleven days before the u.s. presidential election revealed FBI director James B. Comey today that they are investigating new e-mails relating to the Hillary Clinton that they had not previously been aware of.
Connected to sex scandal
Comey said in a letter to several republicans in the Senate justiskomité that the e-mails have been uncovered in an “unrelated matter”, and that the FBI is now investigating whether they contain classified information.
According to the New York Times has the FBI been made aware of the e-mails in connection with the sedelighetssaken against the skandaliserte democrat Anthony Weiner, who is married to, but separated from the Clinton’s close associate Huma Abedin. According to CNN they lay on a device the FBI was not previously aware of, and is not sent by Clinton himself.
the Washington Post writes in the evening that the device we are talking about, is a PC that was in common use of Weiner and Abedin.
Clinton left off in July the prosecution after the investigation of the 30 000 e-mails to and from a private e-mail server she used while she was secretary of state. A month after appeared, however, a further 14 900 e-mails up; the lawyers her had omitted them in the material they delivered. And now comes a new round of scrutiny, less than two weeks before the election.
- Takes up very poor out
- the Pendulum swings. Valgkamphendelser the zeros of each other typical, and this can nulle out the effect of Trumps bussvideo, ” says Hilmar L. Mjelde, senior fellow and US expert at the Uni Research Rokkansenteret, to the Newspaper.
Mjelde believes the Fbi’s reopening of the investigation comes at a very unfortunate time for Clinton.
- A new investigation eleven days before the election takes itself very bad, ” states he.
- This goes to her fitness to be president, her judgment and honesty. Now she must answer about all this on the new one.
What effect can this have for the outcome of the vote?
- Forhåndsstemmingen is already underway, so the effect of it can be reduced. But this can have an effect on those who have not yet decided – an estimated 10 % of the voters , ” says Mjelde.
- Pure ammunition for Trump
the united STATES-the expert recalls that the election campaign before the Trumps famous bussvideo, where he is talking with an acquaintance about to klå women in the groin, was in republikanerens favor.
- There is normally a change after eight years with the same party in power, and a new investigation of the e-postsaken is to the advantage of him. Now he is on the offensive again, ” he says.
Mjelde believes the new investigation is pure ammunition for the Donald Trumps rhetoric.
- He portrayed himself as endringskandidaten, the one who can create the political earthquake in Washington. And says at the same time that Clinton can’t create the change many people want, ” says the scientist.
- Worse than Watergate
As expected use the Trump it re-opened the investigation for what it is worth. He has previously stated that he wants to throw Clinton in jail for e-postsaken, and spared not of gunpowder during a speech in the evening.
- This is a scandal worse than Watergate, said republikaneren in front of thousands of tilgengere in New Hampshire.
Hillary Clinton’s corruption is on a størrelsesnivå we never before have seen. We must not let her bring themselves and their criminal plans into The oval office. I have great respect for the FBI and the justice department now is willing to have the courage to correct the horrendous mistake they have made, ” said presidential candidate, according to the North – and was referring to that it is not brought any indictment against Clinton.
wasn’t Talking about e-mails
Hillary Clinton spoke in the evening on a valgkampmøte in Iowa, but did not mention e-postsaken with one word.
We’ve just got to know about this, ” said a Clinton staff member to CNN while the delegation yet put on a flight to valgkampmøtet.
the Clinton campaign’s manager John Podestà has tonight sent out a press release where he meets the new details. He recalls that the FBI chief Comey in the summer stated that no reasonable person in the påtalemakten would pursue the case against Clinton.
FBI director Comey should immediately give the Us public more information than that contained in the letter he has sent to the eight republican committee members, ” says Podestà.
- No reopening
He further opines that the case’s new step cannot be considered as any “reopening” of the e-postsaken against Clinton.
Director Comeys letter refers to e-mails that are arrived in an unrelated case, but we have no idea what these e-mails are, and the director even says that they might not even be central, ” says Podestà.
He concludes that he is sure that what it is now Comey is investigating, it will not lead to any different conclusion from the FBI than in July.
