John Boehner Unchained

The former House speaker feels liberated—but he’s also seething about what happened to his party.

Lead investigator Peter Stzrok changed the verbiage of Comey's description of HRC's mishandling of classified information.

 

I've read this story and can't figure out why the part about the changed verbiage matters. If they determined that there was no criminal wrong doing, then saying she was "grossly negligent" is wrong.
