I may have misheard about the server part....but I know I heard them say it has NOTHING to do with the Clinton Foundation
Already rumors that this has to do with Terry McAuliffe and he will be the one who "falls on the sword"

It's not hard for me either but I don't have to take public transit to a polling place or find childcare, or worry about missing my shift and maybe those hours, tips, etc going to someone else. This may seem small but I don't think I've ever disagreed with anything you've said more than this.

False, they did not use a private server. They used private emails. Regardless, they shouldn't be let off the hook either. Using Powell/Rice is not even a legitimate defense for Hillary being a corrupt piece of shit. This is just as weak as the "RUSSIA!!" argument.
rocketalum;1819359 wrote:Impeachment, possibly. To succeed in the Senate trial to get her removed not likely. I wish this wasn't true but partisanship will matter more than justice. No way you get 2/3rds of the senate to vote against her. Let's just say the Senate comes out 50/50 after this election. No matter how bad the details, I can't see 16 D's voting against her.
To be clear I'm not supporting her or saying this would be justice, it wouldn't be. I'm saying I don't have enough faith in justice over partisanship. If elected she serves at least 4 years.
The republicans can just buy the votes, the way that votes were bought to push Obamacare. Money for your pet projects goes a LONG way.
rocketalum;1819365 wrote:So is it the FBI side of things where you draw the line? If it's just federal cases pending then of course Trump has to step down too. Or, since we are a country of laws where we are innocent until proven guilty must we assume both are clear of any wrongdoing and if so, why would either step down?

I would think that the difference with that is that they didn't lie about it when asked. Probably didn't wipe 30,000 emails, either, to hide stuff.

IMO....if Comey had something that was going to result in criminal charges against Hillary.....he would've put it out there already.
I think they have already gone through all this information and they know exactly what they're going to do already

Assange sending vibes that next batch email dump should have enough ammo to get her arrested --- LOL
If we had a DoJ that was not completely corrupt she would have already been arrested.
Maybe Seth Rich, deceased, will finally rest peacefully.

I haven't heard anything about the severity.
Everything is quiet right now.
HRC will be President elect in less than 2 weeks.

Hearing that it is over 3 emails.
This is a non-story. Close the thread.

No he had to inform Congress if the investigation was to re-open. That's part of his job.
This is over 3 emails and checking to see if they were classified or not.

Does it really matter honestly? He's likely done in January 2017; him resigning is rather irrelevant.

UPDATE: The F.B.I. clarified that the exchanges were not sent from her server, and stated that the devices/emails seized were from Huma Abedin and Anthony Weiner.
LOL.
Yeah, she will be okay.

Pretty pathetic to reopen the investigation if that is the case.

It takes but one to prove a crime.
The Bleachbit undertaking to obstruct justice perhaps did not go far enough. It is always hard to reign everyone in who is involved in widespread corruption.

From the Washington Post:
Comey wrote that he had been briefed on the new material Thursday. “I agreed that the FBI should take appropriate investigative steps designed to allow investigators to review these emails to determine whether they contain classified information, as well as to assess their importance to our investigation,” he wrote.
An FBI spokesman on Friday declined to elaborate, and a spokesman for Attorney General Loretta E. Lynch declined to comment. A Clinton campaign spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Comey provided no details about the unrelated case that resulted in the finding of the new emails. A law enforcement official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the emails were “numerous” and that they are not related to hacks of recent Democratic Party institutions or the emails that have been released in recent days by the anti-secrecy group WikiLeaks.
Maybe you got your info from Hillary.com ............

She's going to be our next President.
When will you accept reality?

He already did. He or HRC committed perjury in front of the House committee. Supposedly that's a crime.
