Are You Guys Aware That FBI Has Apparently Released Findings Report of Prior Clinton Investvestigati

I've been rebutting it for about an hour on DI but haven't seen it here

Heads Up the FBI seems to be trying to destroy Clinton for the 3rd time in a week by dumping its findings and report 6 days before the election

This not a joke or a "concern post"-its out there already

it was released 9/2. The FBI Vault also shows reports of Bill Clinton's pardon of Marc Rich and a separate report on Fred Trump in recent days

They have been talking about it saying that the FBI is going crazy. And Comey was implying that it was released because of a FOIA. No body is biting that explanation. Yes the FBI is trying to revive an old scandal of Bill's and influence the election.

Is Somebody at the FBI Trying to Throw the Election - Vanity Fair
Now, a new interagency mystery is raising questions about whether the F.B.I. has become politicized, just days before the presidential election. On Sunday, a long-dormant F.B.I. Twitter account suddenly sprung to life, blasting out a series of links to case files that cast the Clintons in a decidedly negative light. One tweet links to publicly available documents related to the agency’s investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private e-mail server, followed immediately by another tweet linking to the investigation of former general David Petraeus for compromising classified material—a jarring juxtaposition given the allegations against Clinton. Then, on Tuesday, the “FBI Records Vault” account—which had not tweeted at all between October 2015 and Sunday—published a link to records related to the 15-year-old, long-closed investigation into former President Bill Clinton’s pardoning of onetime commodities trader turned fugitive Marc Rich. The post, which was quickly retweeted thousands of times, links to a heavily redacted document that repeatedly references the agency’s “Public Corruption” unit—less-than-ideal optics for Hillary Clinton, who has spent her entire campaign fighting her image as a corrupt politician.

By law, FOIA materials that have been requested three or more times are posted electronically to the FBI’s public reading room shortly after they are processed," an FBI spokesperson said.
