[The Hill] When FBI Director James Comey announced that he would not recommend prosecution of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for violation of the Espionage Act (Title 18, United States Code, Section 793), he made a decision based upon political considerations, not based upon principles of criminal law or justice.
There are five key points to be made in analyzing the director's very flawed recommendation:
[WSJ] WASHINGTON--Newly disclosed emails show top Obama administration officials were in close contact with Hillary Clinton's nascent presidential campaign in early 2015 about the potential fallout from revelations that the former secretary of state used a private email server.
Their discussion included a request from the White House communications director to her counterpart at the State Department to see if it was possible to arrange for Secretary of State John Kerry to avoid questions during media appearances about Mrs. Clinton's email arrangement.

Of course the WH 'coordinated.' Unless he limited their contact to face-to-face or secure SATCOM, Obama would have had to have communicated with HRC over her homebrew server. She did not use a '.gov' system, either NIPR or SIPR (non-secure or secure). The coordination extends to the odious Comey and Lynch and the faux FBI investigation as well.
Surely we cannot have the first half-black POTUS involved in a felony conspiracy, possible espionage and treason just before he leaves office, now can we ?
#2
The regime has never been held accountable for its many criminal activities. These rats have had a free run for 8 years and they feel that they can get away with anything they do.
Because of that, the election will be the biggest mess you have every seen.
#4
Will the Pubs promise to clean up this mess and prosecute BHO, HRC, and WJC and those criminals around them who are destroying the country? If so, I will promise to vote for them and support them.

In a NH townhall meeting, Trump was asked by a member of the audience if he would clean up the corrupt bureaucracy/executive branch if elected. He said the whole thing was very disappointing and disgusting but did not really answer the question.

Heads of State have immunity, executive privilege, and can pardon one another. Not to mention the Supremes. She cannot be president but the damage is so extensive it will be difficult to undo!

We can hope that Trump cleans out the career leftists in DOS and the limp wristed desk jockets at DoD. I would hope he puts about half of DoJ in the docket. I would also hope he puts all of the political apparatiks at Klingon Central on the curb with their cardboard box.
It will take a wholesale purge of the executive branch for Trump to avoid a widespread and continuous barrage of leaks and innuendos from these people.

Not to sound the 'deplorable' misogynist, but if eight years of the indolent golfer has not convinced us of our progressive errors, then there is little that can be done. The gender confused leftest and abortion apologists will have won the day and I reckon the republic is finished.

I personally do not want to be lead. I want to be left alone. By that, I mean, don't redistribute my property and don't tell me how to live. Fairly simple...

Milwaukee Sheriff David Clarke was on Fox last evening for a short segment on crime. I caught him referring to HRC as "Mrs. Bill Clinton" not once, but twice.

Pence nailed it. She loathes the deplorables, the military, the Secret Service, the people in fly-over land, and America. She is full of vitriol and bitterness.
#7
Interesting to see all the folks who supported Trump because he is an 'outsider' getting excited about the career establishment politician who is saving Trump's bacon.

I find it interesting that Deadspin (AKA the New Gawker) can be counted on for what seems to be their nearly one hundred columns slamming Trump, and I believe I saw one that actually supported Hillary. I suppose they're not too hot to openly support arguably the most corrupt US politician in history, are they?
Well, 'lead' is not quite how Lenin, Stalin, Mao handled the people they loathed. However, they probably used the term anyway to describe their activities.
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Alicia Machado will not give any more interviews on the way Trump treated her
She blasted Trump for 'launching insults and are attempting to revive slanders and false accusations about my life, in order to humiliate, intimidate, and unbalance me.
'These attacks are cheap lies with bad intentions,' she said in a statement
After Hillary Clinton put a spotlight on Machado's strife with Trump, the 39-year-old's dirty laundry spilled out into the public
The embarrassing disclosures included a decade-old sex romp on a Spanish reality TV show
Someone please turn down the air conditioner. The poor girl is freezing.

I read this as she has regrets (got clobbered) after jumping in bed with HRC to try to take down Trump?

That link might be of interest if I were voting for Trump.
Instead, I'm voting against the person and associated Mandarinate who tried to give Egypt to the Moslem Brotherhood, that has handed over major amounts of US uranium to the Post Soviets... heck, I'm voting _against_ the deindustrialization and disenfranchisement of my country.
I'm tempted to say, if some crude shit he said a while back is getting some clitoris people's panties in a wad, well, tough shit, they shoulda maybe gotten born with dicks, cause I'm tired of bleeding to death.

You don't have to care, but if the Republicans can't convince Trump to step down, nominate a decent candidate (why not Pence?) and use the last month for a vigorous campaign, they are handing the presidency to Hillary.
Maybe you should care?

Why? If it was a democracy I might care. It's an oligarchy and you got to pick the oligarch to protect your interest over others (as the other side has been doing for a couple of decades). He's a junk yard dog, but you have to decide if you want him or nothing at this point. There is no stepping down.

BTW, there's an American colloquialism - When you have them by the balls, their hearts and minds follow. Never saw anyone stage a fainting attack over that.
[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] The White House on Thursday defended its decision to significantly expand the ranks of public relations specialists on the executive payroll during President B.O.'s time in office, and cast it as a transparency exercise that's needed to ensure officials are communicating "effectively" to the public.
The B.O. regime has spent more than $1.5 billion on government public relations staffers a year, as well as additional private-sector communications specialists, since the president took office, according to a Government Accountability Office report released Wednesday.
The White House's chief front man, Josh Earnest, defended the move and called it money well spent.
"The administration has made it a priority to interact with the public and interact with the press corps and to be as transparent as possible," Earnest told news hounds Thursday, "and that is work that requires dedicated professionals who are interested in furthering that goal and helping the American people understand exactly what the administration is doing, what we have prioritized and what our success has been in implementing the agenda laid out by President B.O.."

New campaigns and politically correct themes must constantly be developed for the proles. The work at Belzec, Bergen-Belsen, Buchenwald, Chelmno, Dachau, Flossenburg, Gross-Rosen must continue. Our society must finally be rid of the deplorables.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
