From 'dicking bimbos' to 'the FBI's Weiner investigation'... This election sucks, but the headlines are priceless.

Haha Jake Tapper on CNN explained the Weiner connection and just quoted "If you introduce a gun in the first act, it had better go off in the third act." Good choice.

Full text of Comey's letter:

In previous congressional testimony, I referred to the fact that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) had completed its investigation of former Secretary Clinton’s personal email server. I am writing to supplement my previous testimony.

In connection with an unrelated case, the FBI has learned of the existence of emails that appear to be pertinent to the investigation. I am writing to inform you that the investigative team briefed me on this yesterday, and I agree that the FBI should take appropriate investigative steps designed to allow investigators to review these emails to determine whether the contain classified information, as well as to assess their importance to our investigation.

Although the FBI cannot yet assess whether or not this material may be significant, and I cannot predict how long it will take us to complete the additional work, I believe it is important to update your Committees about our efforts in light of my previous testimony.

NyTimes is reporting that the investigation has come from a separate investigation relating to a device belonging to Huma Abedin and Anthony Weiner.

New York Times just reported that the emails were discovered in connection with the FBI's investigation into Anthony Weiner. They must be Huma Abedin emails.

Anthony Weiner's continued existence seems like proof that the Clintons don't actually go around killing people who pose a risk to them

NYT reporting these emails have surfaced as a result of the investigation into Anthony Weiner's sexting scandal: (EDIT: UPDATED LINK) http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/29/us/politics/fbi-hillary-clinton-email.html?smid=tw-nytimes&smtyp=cur

So... the only person Weiner seems to have managed to actually, royally fuck throughout his whole sexting saga.. is Hillary Clinton? Fuck me, America. Your election, and thus the fate of your country, could be decided by an investigation into the antics of a dude with a funny surname, married to Hillary Clinton's mobile command centre, who can't keep his silly sausage tucked neatly away.

AP News alert just came out: apparently the emails related to the Clinton investigation's reopening came from the sexting probe of Anthony Weiner.

This election never ceases to surprise even the most jaded of us.

She would like Comey to specifically say what the new emails entail.

HRC and the DNC have not been contacted by the FBI.

Clinton would like voters to vote as early as possible.
