Gohmert doubles down after FBI dismisses claim of Clinton server hack

Republican Rep. Louie Gohmert doubled down after the FBI dismissed claims that a Chinese state-owned company hacked former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s private email server.

'[P]artisan politics, sadly, are very much at play within some of the leadership at the FBI," the Texas congressman said in a statement late Wednesday.

The Daily Caller first reported that the FBI was notified of the purported hack in 2015, when the Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG) warned the bureau of the intrusion. The hack reportedly implanted code that generated a “courtesy copy” for almost all Clinton's emails -- which was then forwarded to the Chinese company.

A source briefed on the matter confirmed to Fox News the details of the Caller’s reporting. Gohmert also had told Fox News on Tuesday that the emails were obtained by a foreign country’s intelligence, though he declined to name the country in question.

But on Wednesday, the FBI sharply disputed the claims, saying it “has not found any evidence the servers were compromised.”

Does the FBI still have a soft place in its heart for Hillary?

Of course they haven't found any evidence and likely never will. Because they haven't looked....

Heart, head, whatever. They have no interest in showing off their involvement, or lack thereof.

New director is the same mind set of Comey. Circle the wagons close the ranks and take diversity training. Trump needs outsider as director.

And they won't find it if they don't have the proper security programs and procedures.
