First, the testimony hasn\u2019t revealed a single shred of evidence to support the delusional conspiracy theory that claims \u201cthe Russians hacked the election\u201d for Donald Trump. If anything, Comey\u2019s testimony underscores the knowledge that the Russians are NOT engaged in any \u201csiding\u201d with Republicans or Democrats, and that the Russians are simply \u201copportunists\u201d who want to defeat the United State of America on the global stage. To put this in context, the United States <strong>routinely interferes with elections of dozens of other nations<\/strong> and even \u201cinstalls\u201d political leaders through various CIA operations, including CIA-led coups and assassinations of foreign leaders.<\/p>\n<p>Arguably the most shocking revelation to come from Comey\u2019s testimony is the admission that <strong>Loretta Lynch pressures James Comey to lie to the American public <\/strong>about the criminal investigation into the Hillary Clinton campaign. As Comey admitted in sworn testimony, Lynch directly pressured him to avoid using the term \u201cinvestigation\u201d when publicly discussing the investigation. Instead, he was told to use the term \u201cmatter,\u201d and he promptly agreed to use that term in order to distort the public perception of the severity of the criminal investigation into Hillary Clinton. (Don\u2019t forget that Bill Clinton also secretly met with Loretta Lynch to pressure the DOJ to back off any real investigation of Hillary Clinton\u2019s email server fiasco.)<\/p>\n<p>If this had happened on behalf of Donald Trump instead of Hillary Clinton, the entire mainstream media would immediately characterize it as \u201cobstruction of justice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cComey added later that he was concerned about that direction as it was false,\u201d reports <a href=\"http:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2017\/06\/08\/loretta-lynch-pressured-fbi-to-downplay-clinton-email-investigation-comey-says\/?utm_source=site-share\">The Daily Caller<\/a>. \u201cHe was further concerned because it aligned with the Clinton campaign\u2019s spin on the investigation. He said he complied, however, because he believed the media wouldn\u2019t buy into that take on it\u2026 Comey cited that pressure from Lynch to downplay the investigation as one of the reasons he held a press conference to recommend the Department of Justice not seek to indict Clinton.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hillary Clinton\u2019s campaign routinely lied to America about the seriousness of the criminal investigation into her illegal email server, pattern of corruption, selling influence and collusion. Via the Daily Caller:<\/p>\n<p><em>The Clinton campaign consistently sought to mislead the public by denying that Clinton was the subject of an FBI investigation. Instead, the campaign claimed the investigation was\u00a0a simple \u201csecurity inquiry.\u201d Comey said he was concerned by Lynch\u2019s pressure on him\u00a0and the FBI to use the campaign\u2019s spin, as it appeared it appeared that Lynch was intentionally trying to align the language the FBI was using to match the angle pushed by the Clinton campaign.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>James Comey confirms he orchestrated \u201cleak\u201d of memo to embarrass President Trump<\/h2>\n<p>Also today, Comey confirmed he orchestrated the \u201cleak\u201d of his memo by using a close friend to funnel the memo to the press.
