this is a good sign this won't go anywhere productive, because your conclusion here can really only follow from the premise that the FBI got it wrong and there is simply no evidence that they did. it is not a partisan talking point to say this--and ironically, what you're saying is. do you earnestly believe that you are in a better position to assess criminality here than the literal, actual Federal Bureau of Investigation, who spent a full year investigating whether a crime was committed? or better than the Trump-era Inspector General of the Department of Justice, who was critical of Comey's public handling of the investigation but found no bias in the investigation's course in either direction? if so then i can't stop you from believing that, but nobody should take your position seriously and there's no sense in debating it. you'd be arguing from a position grounded by nothing at that point.
