The October surprise is here. The FBI saying it is examining new
evidence over allegations that Hillary Clinton may have violated
national security by using a private email system as secretary of
state. Mrs. Clinton thought she had put this to rest. When FBI
Director Comey said the case was not strong enough to prosecute last
summer. Upon hearing that, Congressman Elijah Cummings was overjoyed
with Comey.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

ELIJAH CUMMINGS (D), MARYLAND CONGRESSMAN: I don't know whether your
family is watching this. But I hope that they are as proud of you as
I am. Because you are the epitome of what a public servant is all
about.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

O'REILLY: But that was then. After Friday's announcement, that Comey
was reopening the investigation, Cummings had a different take.


(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

CUMMINGS: I think here Director Comey made a grave mistake. We all
make mistakes. But this is a grave mistake.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

O'REILLY: My question how would the congressman know it's a grave
mistake? He has not seen what the FBI has seen. Truth is Elijah
Cummings and other Democrats do not want to know the truth. Do not
want justice to take place. That holds true for the president of the
United States, Barack Obama as well. Based on reporting by FOX News
and other agencies, Talking Points has come to the conclusion that
the President has made it quite clear to Attorney General Loretta
Lynch that he, he does not want any prosecution of Hillary Clinton
or any investigation into the Clinton Foundation.

Mrs. Lynch got the message. And according to the "Wall Street
Journal" is furious that FBI Director Comey has reopened the email investigation. For his part, Comey had to inform Congress about
possible new information because, in September, he said this.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

LAMAR SMITH (D), TEXAS CONGRESSMAN: Would you reopen the Clinton
investigation if you discovered new information that was both
relevant and substantial?

JAMES COMEY, FBI DIRECTOR: It's hard for me to answer in the
abstract we would certainly look at any new and substantial
information.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

O'REILLY: Comey is not a fool. He knows that if email on Huma
Abedin's computer, that's Mrs. Clinton's top assistant, contains
classified national security information, he knows that he, Comey,
would eventually take the fall, if he did not pursue obvious leads
and tell Congress. So he had to go public, even though reports are
Loretta Lynch did not want him to do so. The whole thing is a mess.
With politics, perhaps, trumping justice. Even former Attorney
General Eric Holder weighed in saying Comey was wrong. This is the
same Holder who has held in contempt of Congress because he failed
to turn over documents related to the fast and furious gun scandal.

Holder ran his Justice Department under President Obama in the most
partisan political way possible. A deplorable situation.
Unfortunately, it looks like Attorney General Lynch is doing the
same thing. There is no question the new exposure is hurting Hillary
Clinton. A new ABC News poll says 34 percent of Americans are now
less likely to vote for her. Also, her poll numbers are falling. The
Real Clear Average is now less than three percent in her favor, down substantially in a week. Mrs. Clinton is not happy.

HILLARY CLINTON (D), PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE: I'm sure a lot of you may
be asking what this new email story is about and why in the world
the FBI would decide to jump in to an election with no evidence of
any wrongdoing with just days to go.

(CROWD BOOING)

That's a good question.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

O'REILLY: And it is a question that deserves an answer. And we will
not get that answer before Election Day. For his part, Donald Trump,
who condemned Comey for letting Clinton off the hook last summer is
now happy.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

TRUMP: And I have to give the FBI credit. That was so bad what
happened originally and it took guts for Director Comey to make the
move that he made in light of the kind of opposition he had where
they are trying to protect her from criminal prosecution. You know
that. It took a lot of guts.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

O'REILLY: Talking Points is not sure whether it took a lot of guts
because he stated Comey would have eventually been held accountable
if the emails on Ms. Abedin's computer show national security
violations. So while Comey was covering his butt last summer, he may
be also covering it now. Finally, there is a civil war within the
FBI, Comey knows that, some career agents have offered their
resignations because they don't believe the Clinton email
investigation was conducted in a rigorous way.

Comey, Lynch, and President Obama could have saved the nation all of
this turmoil, had they done what they should have done in the first
place convened a federal grand jury to review the evidence presented
by the FBI. That would have gotten politics out of it. But, in
America at this point in history, justice takes a backseat to
politics. Not acceptable. And that's "The Memo".

Where did they say that? Voices in your head does not count...

No answer? That's what I expected... you NEVER have an answer, do you?

REP. JOHN DUNCAN (R): "Do you understand that great numbers of people
feel, now, that there's one standard of justice for the Clintons and
another for regular people?"

COMEY: "Yeah, I've heard that a lot... it's NOT TRUE, but I've heard
it a lot."
