Does it change your opinion that someone already traced the date on the text to when Obama was meeting with putin and the implied intent of knowing everything was to tell Putin to stop meddling in our election.
Think it was in the trump 2 electric boogaloo thread.

But it is not clear that the text message between the two refers to the FBI's investigation of Clinton. Johnson's report only says that the text "may relate" to the FBI’s Clinton investigation, since the Justice Department had redacted other text messages that related to other investigations. An earlier text in that sequence refers to the need to develop talking points for Comey in connection with a morning meeting "on the 7th."
The text in question was sent just as Obama was preparing to attend an international summit in China, where he would meet face-to-face with Vladimir Putin on Sept. 5. Describing that conversation months later, Obama said he told Putin at that meeting to "cut it out" in relation to attempts to meddle in the U.S. election.
They reference talking points for a meeting Comey had with Obama on "the 7th", and Obama met with Putin on the 5th. If they were indeed meaning talking points for Comey to brief POTUS on the Russia investigation for his showdown with Putin on the 5th, why did they think Comey's prep meeting took place two days after the event he's prepping the President on?
Also, here is the footnote on the text message itself in the memo:
Quote:
78 DOJ-PROD-238. The Justice Department notified the Committee that it had redacted other text messages that
were personal in nature or relating to other investigations. See Jan. 19th Boyd letter, supra note 5. Presumably,
because this message was not redacted, the Department believes it may relate to the FBI’s investigation of classified
information on Secretary Clinton’s private server.
The DOJ scrubbed the text messages that related specifically to "other investigations", and if this text message did indeed, or even appeared to, relate to an"other investigation", it would have been redacted by the DOJ, no?
