title: Hillary Clinton Survives Another FBI Pantomime, 650,000 Emails Investigated in 691,000 Seconds
text:  Claire Bernish Free Thought ProjectIn no surprise to anyone paying even marginal attention, the FBI s clearing Hillary Clinton of wrongdoing in its briefly reopened investigation   however, the time it took the agency to reach this conclusion is not only bereft of logic and reason, it constitutes the most hubristic of insults to the public s intelligence.In just 691,000 seconds from announcement to conclusion, FBI Director James Comey wants you to believe that agents thoroughly examined over 650,000 emails newly  discovered  on Anthony Weiner s computer   including any threads resulting, as well as all attachments   before deciding Clinton innocent of wrongdoing.We, the people of this planet, are just not that stupid   nor are we even mildly amused by this farcical bullshit passed off as a credible investigation.Indeed, the lightning pace of this putative second investigation not only boggles the mind, it forces uneasy questions concerning the true motivation and apparent exceeding necessity to ensure Hillary Clinton walks away scott-free amid rapidly mushrooming evidence of flagrant corruption and mendacious collusion.Just a cursory comparison of two investigations shows such marked differences it would be impossible not to question legitimacy of the FBI s findings.In the summer of 2015, the FBI commenced its first probe into the former secretary of state s use of a private email server during her tenure in office, after John Giacalone   then Director of the National Security Branch   met with Comey to voice concerns emanating from the Intelligence community about classified information possibly handled carelessly.For nearly a full year   365 days, or 31,536,000 seconds   a sizable task force of FBI agents pored over an enormous cache, first comprising of 30,000 emails, but later totaling 44,900 after additional documents not originally handed over by the Clinton camp to the State Department were discovered.This means   rounding off the rough estimate of one year   the Bureau combed an average of just over 123 documents every day.While that might seem to be manageable with a slew of investigators on the job, a basic comparison of the two probes proves the literal inanity of the reopened investigation.Later in the day on October 28, Comey announced the commencement of the secondary probe   albeit to the consternation of current and former officials who felt his telling Congress broke a number of investigatory guidelines, including possibly influencing the outcome of the presidential race.According to Comey, an additional 650,000 documents located on the computer of Clinton aide Huma Abedin s now-disgraced and estranged husband Anthony Weiner deserved careful scrutiny for pertinence and relevance to the original investigation of the Democratic nominee.Public and official speculation predicted a months- or years-long investigation, even with substantial manpower dedicated to the task.But on Sunday, November 6, in yet another shocker of an announcement from the FBI director, Comey inexplicably declared nothing of relevance to the Clinton investigation    no new conclusions    had been revealed in its secondary probe.This means   again rounding for brevity to eight days the total length of the investigation   FBI agents inspected some 81,250 documents each day.Granted, both estimates have been averaged and roughened, but only for comparison s sake   and that contrast doesn t survive the scantiest litmus test of believability.Not at all.Before the nay-sayers jump in with a there s no comparison deflection, consider the following points.Although an algorithm or program combing those documents might indeed retrieve subjects of interest to investigators   keywords, germane subjects, accordant people s names, and the like   in no way would such technological gatekeepers reveal subtle nuance as has been displayed in emails published by Wikileaks from Hillary Clinton, campaign chair John Podesta, and the Democratic National Committee.Such fine gradations of meaning, naturally found in the English language but also purposefully employed to throw off investigators and interlopers, could not possibly be revealed by artificial means   at least not that quickly and particularly not with currently-available technologies.Still not convinced?Consider that if such technology did indeed exist to that discerning level of scrutiny in our heightened and overarching surveillance and police states, no criminal would ever roam free.Law enforcement departments and the National Security Agency together have amassed astonishingly voluminous data sets on every person in this country, including through emails and online activities. A technology advanced enough to comb for subtleties in language would hone in on criminal behavior and activity with incredible frequency.And while NSA programs have been revealed to hunt for keywords, there are limits to its effectiveness   no terrorist plot has yet been halted in progress because the intelligence to discover it hasn t yet solidified to that point.Technology experts immediately weighed in claiming such technology does indeed exist, is frequently employed, and can do the job perfectly in a mere eight days  no worries...Continue reading at Free Thought Project***SEE ALSO: Hillary s Russian Hack Hoax: The Biggest Lie of this Election SeasonREAD MORE ELECTION NEWS AT: 21st Century Wire 2016 FilesSUPPORT 21WIRE   SUBSCRIBE & BECOME A MEMBER @21WIRE.TV
