Recommendations
Our report makes nine recommendations to the Department and the FBI to assist them in addressing the issues that we identified in this review:
• We recommend that the Department and the FBI consider developing guidance that identifies the risks associated with and alternatives to permitting a witness to attend a voluntary interview of another witness (including in the witness’s capacity as counsel).
• We recommend that the Department consider making explicit that, except in situations where the law requires or permits disclosure, an investigating agency cannot publicly announce its recommended charging decision prior to consulting with the Attorney General, Deputy Attorney General, U.S. Attorney, or his or her designee, and cannot proceed without the approval of one of these officials.
• We recommend that the Department and the FBI consider adopting a policy addressing the appropriateness of Department employees discussing the conduct of uncharged individuals in public statements.
• We recommend that the Department consider providing guidance to agents and prosecutors concerning the taking of overt investigative steps, indictments, public announcements, or other actions that could impact an election.
• We recommend that the Office of the Deputy Attorney General take steps to improve the retention and monitoring of text messages Department-wide.
• We recommend that the FBI add a warning banner to all of the FBI’s mobile phones and devices in order to further notify users that they have no reasonable expectation of privacy.
• We recommend that the FBI consider (a) assessing whether it has provided adequate training to employees about the proper use of text messages and instant messages, including any related discovery obligations, and (b) providing additional guidance about the allowable uses of FBI devices for any non- governmental purpose, including guidance about the use of FBI devices for political conversations.
• We recommend that the FBI consider whether (a) it is appropriately educating employees about both its media contact policy and the Department’s ethics rules pertaining to the acceptance of gifts, and (b) its disciplinary provisions and penalties are sufficient to deter such improper conduct.
• We recommend that Department ethics officials include the review of campaign donations for possible conflict issues when Department employees or their spouses run for public office.

what slim thread, almost microscopic in diameter that I held out that might save the DoJ has just vanished

there is NO justice in the country for sedition and treason, there is no justice in the country for the little guy

its all a sham and a fraud...the people are going to have to take justice into their own hands if they ever want to fix the problem - its clear that the oats that these guys took mean nothing, and as such we the people should make sure that at the end of the day these people mean nothing

I'm fed up

I don't see how anyone can at this point reach any other conclusion. Hillary Clinton committed multiple serious violations of mishandling classified information. Ordinary Americans have been sent to prison for much lesser such crimes. Not only does she skate, but the IG report makes her out to be a victim of Comey's actions.

Yet another "bombshell" that turns out to have the explosive force of an anemic fart. But it does stink to high heaven.

To quote Horatio in Hamlet. "There's something rotten in the state of Denmark."

Well, from what I understand the IG doesnt really hold any legal authority, and this report is really just a report card of sorts. Not sure if US Attorney John Huber could this report for prosecutions or not.
It is what it is...

I hope the ghost of Al Capone comes back and gives everyone in the FBI and DOJ a raging case of syphilis.

Becasue that's about as likely to happen as any real justice in this country.

Aside from dissolving the FBI, I don't see any way of righting that agency. Listening to the director now makes me want to vomit.

I kept my expectations low on this due to realizing Horowitz was a hand picked Obama appointee. And my expectations were met.

Know what we really have to look forward to? The next democratic administration. The lack of accountability has taught them one thing: the ends justify the means, and "getting caught" means nothing. Running guns for political purposes, targeting your foes with the IRS, using federal LE to overturn a duly elected official, using the CIA/NSA to spy on your rivals? All completly acceptable.

You thougt Obama was corrupt? You ain't seen nothing yet.
