New York Times: The FBI knew a month ago that the laptop they seized could have relevant emails (http://www.dailykos.com/stories/2016/10/29/1588449/-New-York-Times-The-FBI-knew-a-month-ago-that-the-laptop-they-seized-could-have-relevant-emails)

The most compelling reason to suspect partisan motives for FBI Director James Comey’s vague disclosure on Friday is its timing, days before a presidential election. Well now the New York Times is reporting that when the FBI seized the Weiner-Abedin laptop on October 3rd, they were already aware (http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/10/30/us/politics/comey-clinton-email-justice.html?smid=tw-nytpolitics&smtyp=cur&referer=https%3A%2F%2Ft.co%2FAZwEe5YpTQ) of the possibility that it contained emails related to the Clinton server investigation.


After reports surfaced late last month that Mr. Weiner had sent illicit text messages to a 15-year-old girl in North Carolina, top prosecutors in Charlotte and Manhattan jockeyed for the case. Senior officials in the Justice Department decided that if there were a prosecution, it would take place in New York under the supervision of the United States attorney there, Preet Bharara.

About the same time, agents in the F.B.I.’s New York field office understood that the Weiner investigation could possibly turn up additional emails related to Mrs. Clinton’s private server, according to a senior federal law enforcement official. Mr. Weiner’s estranged wife, Huma Abedin, is a top adviser to Mrs. Clinton…

On Oct. 3, the F.B.I. seized several electronic devices, including a laptop, Mr. Weiner’s iPhone and an iPad that was in large measure used by his 4-year-old son to watch cartoons, a person with knowledge of the matter said. Days later, F.B.I. agents also confiscated a Wi-Fi router that could identify any other devices that had been used, the person said.


So the FBI’s New York field office knew when they got the case there was a good chance they would find some of Huma Abedin’s work emails. And I’m certain James Comey knew that as well. Since October 3rd, the FBI had possession of several devices they suspected of having emails relevant to the Clinton investigation. The also knew that any relevant emails could be duplicates of ones they had already looked at.

The New York Times’ law enforcement sources are less specific about when the FBI determined there were relevant emails on the laptop, but it’s difficult to believe that making such a determination — one way or another — wasn’t a priority.

More than likely they’ve been sitting on this for weeks.

They have found 650,000 in total, thousands of which could be related to the investigation into her private server
It will take weeks for them to go through the mass of correspondences

Comey is acting like a ‘banana Republican’ trying to overthrow the government
Conservative radio host Charlie Sykes hammered on Comey for what he called his “reckless” behavior saying, “He seems to have confused ‘CYA’ with his larger responsibilities.”

“There is a reason we have the standards and the traditions and the protocols that say to the FBI and the Justice Department, you know, don’t do this kind of thing right before an election,” Sykes said. “And what he’s done is placed this black box filled with innuendo and conspiracy theories and almost no new evidence in the middle of this political campaign.”

Daily Beast columnist Jonathan Alter concurred, calling Comey a “banana Republican.”
“I agree with Charlie, he’s more conservative, I’m more liberal,” Alter began. “This is a question about what kind of country do we live in? James Comey has now joined other Republicans in being what you might call banana Republicans — acting like they’re in a banana republic. This is what happens in other countries. You throw up vague accusations that your political opponents are under investigation just before a big election.”

Clinton aide Huma Abedin has told people she doesn’t know how her emails wound up on her husband’s computer

The person, who would not discuss the case unless granted anonymity, said Abedin was not a regular user of the computer, and even when she agreed to turn over emails to the State Department for federal records purposes, her lawyers did not search it for materials, not believing any of her messages to be there.

When Abedin left the State Department, she signed a statement saying she had “surrendered to responsible officials all controlled or administratively controlled documents and materials with which I was charged or which I had in my possession.” The State Department — in the process of collecting Clinton’s and others for records and Freedom of Information Act purposes — later asked Abedin to turn over relevant messages, and she gave her laptop and BlackBerry for review.

Abedin told the FBI in an interview in April that her attorneys asked for guidance from the State Department on how to conduct that review but did not receive a response. Summarizing Abedin’s interview, FBI agents wrote that she told them the attorneys “erred on the side of caution and opted to include anything that they were unsure about.” In a sworn deposition in June, Abedin said she “looked for all the devices that may have any of my State Department work on it and returned — returned — gave them to my attorneys for them to review for all relevant documents.”

Meanwhile, on Friday, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump took aim at Abedin in particular as he brought up Clinton’s emails.

“I wonder is she going to keep Huma?” Trump said. “Huma has been a problem. I wonder: Is Huma going to stay there?”

Trump companies destroyed emails and other documents judges ordered him to turn over

the Republican presidential nominee’s companies have systematically destroyed records sought by his opponents in lawsuits.

Court filings, judicial orders and affidavits show Trump’s employees destroyed or hid thousands of emails, digital records and other documents demanded as part of official proceedings,

Some of the destruction violated court orders, and the tactic often forced contractors, former business partners and others entangled in lawsuits with Trump to “spend huge sums of money in legal fees as they struggled—sometimes in vain—to obtain records,”

The real estate developer employed that strategy — “deny, impede and delay, while destroying documents the court had ordered them to hand over” — dating back to 1973, when Trump and his father battled the federal government over racist housing discrimination claims.

Trump has fed misleading information to reporters about his lawsuits, threatened libel lawsuits against his critics and lied during sworn statements,

The review showed Trump had disregarded rules and abused the judicial system for decades

“He promised to turn over his tax returns and his health records — just as he promised to comply with document discovery requirements in so many lawsuits — then reneged,”

“As a result, he has left a sparse evidentiary trail that can be used to assess his wealth, his qualifications for the presidency or even his fitness.”

The Very Political James Comey

The FBI director says he doesn’t "give a hoot” about politics. But when it comes to Clinton and her emails, he’s made a series of political decisions that have jeopardized the integrity of the FBI—and the U.S. election process.

these letters give the lie to Comey’s repeated insistence that the FBI is above politics, exposing that notion as both irrelevant—because, whatever his motivations, Comey’s actions have placed the FBI at center stage during the presidential campaign’s climactic moment—and absurd, because the director has, in fact, repeatedly bowed to political pressures arising from the Clinton investigation.

Since July, by repeatedly caving to political pressures as he sought to resolve an investigation that has now been grievously compromised by his own public statements, the director has led the bureau into its most politically perilous chapter in generations—with the presidential campaign hanging in the balance. It’s a crisis that’s unprecedented in FBI history—and the endgame, with just over a week until Election Day, is anything but clear.

addressed to the Republican chairmen of eight congressional committees, Comey dropped a bombshell that shook the presidential race.

In defiance of longstanding tradition, Justice Department policy and an explicit warning from the department’s senior leadership, the director informed Congress that the FBI would be taking “appropriate investigative steps” to review “emails that appear to be pertinent” to its probe into Hillary Clinton’s email practices—a probe that Comey himself had very publicly laid to rest more than three months earlier.

Comey’s rambling statement—which veered at times into speculation and would have been assailed as prejudicial,

this line of reasoning—that the rules do not apply in cases like Clinton’s, and that

the need for “extraordinary transparency,” as defined by the FBI director, outweighs the rights of a person under investigation—

is that every successive disclosure sets an unfortunate precedent (or at least a public expectation), and every new exemption leads to another.

Comey will devise a way to respond to this spiraling political furor, further bending the rules toward “extraordinary transparency” in hopes of clarifying at least some of the ambiguities introduced in his letters. Unfortunately, though,

the damage has likely been done. The headline itself has become the indictment; the underlying facts matter hardly at all.

http://images.dailykos.com/images/319943/story_image/Harry_Reid_ltr_to_Comey.png?1477890659

Highlighting it here because


It suggests there is specific information in FBI possession, not just vague innuendo and suspicion linking Trump to Putin.
Since this specific information is at least several months old, it is more than likely that ongoing followups have added to that trove of information.
Note a separate full sentence “There is no danger to American interests from releasing it”, further cementing the idea that the information is specific.
If Reid has it, so do all the other Republican Senators and at least some House members, making them complicit in their endorsement of Trump. No longer can they hide behind the idea that they support him just as “the party nominee”.
Everyone would recall FBI has specifically refused to comment or even confirm if they are even investigating Trump’s Russia connection.

So the FBI double standard in keeping on going after Clinton is laid very bare and helps undermine the credibility and legitimacy of the entire Clinton Email scandal which has just been blown out of all reasonable proportion.

St Ronnie's team made a deal with the Iranians to hold the hostages until after the 1980 election, to deny Carter any credit if they were released before the election.

Even that machine was having a hard time justifying Trump. Hillary's stupidity has allowed this to be a close race; even with her bad choices in the past, the race was nearing a blowout as recently as a week ago. Trump was the perfect fool to just keep the news cycle going on anything negative about him, no matter what his surrogates might say.

While I doubt that there's any real fire with this turn of events, if she loses this race, she has only her past bad judgment to blame for it in my view.

The real bombshell in Harry Reid's letter (http://www.dailykos.com/stories/2016/10/30/1588935/-The-real-bombshell-in-Harry-Reid-s-letter)

http://images.dailykos.com/images/319943/story_image/Harry_Reid_ltr_to_Comey.png?1477890659

Highlighting it here because


It suggests there is specific information in FBI possession, not just vague innuendo and suspicion linking Trump to Putin.
Since this specific information is at least several months old, it is more than likely that ongoing followups have added to that trove of information.
Note a separate full sentence “There is no danger to American interests from releasing it”, further cementing the idea that the information is specific.
If Reid has it, so do all the other Republican Senators and at least some House members, making them complicit in their endorsement of Trump. No longer can they hide behind the idea that they support him just as “the party nominee”.
Everyone would recall FBI has specifically refused to comment or even confirm if they are even investigating Trump’s Russia connection.

So the FBI double standard in keeping on going after Clinton is laid very bare and helps undermine the credibility and legitimacy of the entire Clinton Email scandal which has just been blown out of all reasonable proportion.

Comey thought it was too political to say Russians were meddling in election (http://www.dailykos.com/stories/2016/10/31/1589221/-Source-Comey-thought-it-was-too-political-to-say-Russians-were-meddling-in-election)


FBI Director James Comey argued privately that it was too close to Election Day for the United States government to name Russia as meddling in the U.S. election and ultimately ensured that the FBI's name was not on the document that the U.S. government put out, a former FBI official tells CNBC. [...]

According to the former official, Comey agreed with the conclusion the intelligence community came to: "A foreign power was trying to undermine the election. He believed it to be true, but was against putting it out before the election." Comey's position, this official said, was "if it is said, it shouldn't come from the FBI, which as you'll recall it did not."


So … “we have concluded that another country is for sure trying to influence our election” isn’t suitable for public consumption, but “there may be some emails, we’re not really sure” is something to release immediately?

That does not make Comey look like the principled straight shooter he keeps getting credit for being.

And it gives new credence to Harry Reid’s letter charging Comey (http://www.dailykos.com/stories/2016/10/31/1588983/-Harry-Reid-makes-most-serious-accusation-of-the-campaign-Comey-covering-up-Trump-Russia-connection) with covering up evidence of a connection between the Russian government and Donald Trump.

Harry Reid: FBI Director’s ‘Partisan Actions’ May Violate Federal Law

James Comey disclosed, less than two weeks before presidential election, that his office was pursuing potential new evidence related to Hillary Clinton

Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid (http://topics.wsj.com/person/R/harry,-reid/5832) said FBI Director James Comey may have violated a federal law when he disclosed, less than two weeks before the presidential election, that his office was pursuing potential new evidence (http://www.wsj.com/articles/laptop-may-include-thousands-of-emails-linked-to-hillary-clintons-private-server-1477854957) related to Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton (http://topics.wsj.com/person/C/hillary,-clinton/6344)’s use of a private email server as secretary of state.

Mr. Reid was preparing to send a letter to Mr. Comey on Sunday saying he appears to be aiding one political party over another.

He said that may violate the Hatch Act, which bars government officials from using their position to influence an election.

“I am writing to inform you that my office has determined that these actions may violate the Hatch Act,” the Senate minority leader wrote, according to a draft of the letter provided to The Wall Street Journal.

“Through your partisan actions, you may have broken the law.”

http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2016/10/30/harry-reid-comeys-partisan-actions-may-violate-federal-law/

Let's see if the dickless Dems have the guts to go after Comey NOW, not next year.

This means that James Comey now has only two possible responses to this accusation if pressed about it by the press.

He can either:



Confirm that the Senator is right that he is aware of connections between Mr. Trump and Russia

or


Say that as a federal agent, commenting on a presidential candidate’s affairs at this time would be a violation of the Hatch Act

Penalties

Removal is the only penalty authorized for violation of the Hatch Act, under 5 U.S.C.S. § 1505.

The Merit System Protection Board (MSPB) has plenary jurisdiction under § 1505 to determine after a hearing whether the violation warrants the removal of the officer or employee from his office or employment.

The Board considers whether removal is appropriate on the basis of seriousness of the violation.

The Board takes into account all relevant mitigating and aggravating factors, including:

(1) the nature of the offense and the extent of the employee’s participation;

(2) the employee’s motive and intent;

(3) whether the employee received the advice of counsel regarding the activities at issue;

(4) whether the employee ceased the activities at issue; (5) the employee’s past employment record; and

(6) the political coloring of the employee’s activities.

The decision as to whether removal is warranted is a matter of administrative discretion.

The Daily Mail (aka, Hate Mail, Daily Fail, Daily Heil, Daily Moan, Crazy Mail and so on) is a reactionary, neo-fascist tabloid (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Tabloid) rag masquerading as a "traditional values (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Traditional_values)," middle-class newspaper that is, in many ways, the second-worst of the British (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/United_Kingdom) gutter press (only Rupert Murdoch (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Rupert_Murdoch)'s Sun (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/The_Sun) is worse). Its weighty Sunday counterpart is the Mail on Sunday.

The Daily Mail is to the U.K. what the New York Post (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/New_York_Post) is to the United States (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/United_States), and what the Drudge Report (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Drudge_Report) is to the Internet (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Internet): to whit, gossipy tabloid "journalism (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Journalism)" for those who cannot digest serious news (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/News), with a flippantly wingnut (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Wingnut) editorial stance.

The Daily Mail is notable among British tabloids for rejecting the standard red-top banner in order to try to appear more upmarket and respectable, although it does sometimes go in for the full front-page picture or headline characteristic of the populist (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Populism) rags.

It is also notorious for its frequent harassment of individuals, campaigns of hate directed at various minorities (lately focusing on Muslims (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Muslims)), and willfully deceiving (http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Deceit) and lying to its readers.

[baseline bum]

Dead serious.

Polls fluctuate state by state. I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about nationally.

Here's that article of Nate.

http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/election-update-comey-or-not-trump-continues-to-narrow-gap-with-clinton/

He goes into how Comey's letter has had minimal impact on the race.

The national poll means shit, this election is won by taking 270 in the electoral college. Clinton getting more votes in red states she will still lose doesn't help her win the presidency. She is losing ground in Florida and Ohio, either of which would have won her the election a few days ago.

Ohio, I have always felt was going for Trump all along.

She's in great shape everywhere else though. She's even getting bonuses in Arizona and North Carolina.

Polls do not indicate she's struglling in her so called firewalls.

Pennsylvania, Virginia, Colorado, Wisconsin and New Hampshire are all almost a Clinton lock.

Honestly, Florida would be like a gift. She wants it but really doesn't need it if these states hold up.

Oh I forgot Michigan. She's up big time there as well.

Comey Must Explain Why He Advised Obama Not to Publicly Accuse Russia of Hacking Democrats


Comey struggled with not wanting to appear biased as the FBI investigated Russian interference with the U.S. presidential election, and so he told the Obama administration not to accuse Russia of the DNC hackings lest they be seen as "partisan". :lol

There has definitely seemed to be a 3rd Party shift in favor of Trump (i.e. 3rd Party votes declining while Trump rises).

People are blaming Comey but they're forgetting that a lot of Obamacare news came out last week related to increased rates. My guess is that has had more of an impact than Comey or any of this stuff.

Investigating Donald Trump, F.B.I. Sees No Clear Link to Russia

http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/11/01/us/politics/fbi-russia-election-donald-trump.html

By ERIC LICHTBLAU and STEVEN LEE MYERS
October 31, 2016WASHINGTON — For much of the summer, the F.B.I. (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/f/federal_bureau_of_investigation/index.html?inline=nyt-org) pursued a widening investigation into a Russian role in the American presidential campaign. Agents scrutinized advisers close to Donald J. Trump (http://www.nytimes.com/topic/person/donald-trump?inline=nyt-per), looked for financial connections with Russian financial figures, searched for those involved in hacking the computers of Democrats, and even chased a lead — which they ultimately came to doubt — about a possible secret channel of email communication from the Trump Organization to a Russian bank.
Law enforcement officials say that none of the investigations so far have found any conclusive or direct link between Mr. Trump and the Russian government. And even the hacking into Democratic emails, F.B.I. and intelligence officials now believe, was aimed at disrupting the presidential election rather than electing Mr. Trump.


Hillary Clinton’s supporters, angry over what they regard as a lack of scrutiny of Mr. Trump by law enforcement officials, pushed for these investigations. In recent days they have also demanded that James B. Comey, the director of the F.B.I., discuss them publicly, as he did last week when he announced that a new batch of emails (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/29/us/politics/fbi-hillary-clinton-email.html) possibly connected to Mrs. Clinton had been discovered.



Supporters of Mrs. Clinton have argued that Mr. Trump’s evident affinity for Russia (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/international/countriesandterritories/russiaandtheformersovietunion/index.html?inline=nyt-geo)’s president, Vladimir V. Putin — Mr. Trump has called him a great leader and echoed his policies toward NATO, Ukraine and the war in Syria — and the hacks of leading Democrats like John D. Podesta, the chairman of the Clinton campaign, are clear indications that Russia has taken sides in the presidential race and that voters should know what the F.B.I. has found.


The F.B.I.’s inquiries into Russia’s possible role continue, as does the investigation into the emails involving Mrs. Clinton’s top aide, Huma Abedin, on a computer she shared with her estranged husband, Anthony D. Weiner. Mrs. Clinton’s supporters argue that voters have as much right to know what the F.B.I. has found in Mr. Trump’s case, even if the findings are not yet conclusive.


“You do not hear the director talking about any other investigation he is involved in,” Representative Gregory W. Meeks, Democrat of New York, said after Mr. Comey’s letter to Congress was made public. “Is he investigating the Trump Foundation? Is he looking into the Russians hacking into all of our emails? Is he looking into and deciding what is going on with regards to other allegations of the Trump Organization?”


Mr. Comey would not even confirm the existence of any investigation of Mr. Trump’s aides when asked during an appearance in September before Congress. In the Obama administration’s internal deliberations over identifying the Russians as the source of the hacks, Mr. Comey also argued against doing so and succeeded in keeping the F.B.I.’s imprimatur off the formal findings, a law enforcement official said. His stance was first reported by CNBC.


Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, the minority leader, responded angrily on Sunday with a letter accusing the F.B.I. of not being forthcoming about Mr. Trump’s alleged ties with Moscow.

“It has become clear that you possess explosive information about close ties and coordination between Donald Trump, his top advisers, and the Russian government — a foreign interest openly hostile to the United States, which Trump praises at every opportunity,” Mr. Reid wrote. “The public has a right to know this information.”


F.B.I. officials declined to comment on Monday. Intelligence officials have said in interviews over the last six weeks that apparent connections between some of Mr. Trump’s aides and Moscow originally compelled them to open a broad investigation into possible links between the Russian government and the Republican presidential candidate. Still, they have said that Mr. Trump himself has not become a target. And no evidence has emerged that would link him or anyone else in his business or political circle directly to Russia’s election operations.


At least one part of the investigation has involved Paul Manafort, Mr. Trump’s campaign chairman for much of the year. Mr. Manafort, a veteran Republican political strategist, has had extensive business ties in Russia and other former Soviet states, especially Ukraine, where he served as an adviser to that country’s ousted president, Viktor F. Yanukovych.


But the focus in that case was on Mr. Manafort’s ties with a kleptocratic government in Ukraine — and whether he had declared the income in the United States — and not necessarily on any Russian influence over Mr. Trump’s campaign, one official said.
In classified sessions in August and September, intelligence officials also briefed congressional leaders on the possibility of financial ties between Russians and people connected to Mr. Trump. They focused particular attention on what cyberexperts said appeared to be a mysterious computer back channel between the Trump Organization and the Alfa Bank, which is one of Russia’s biggest banks and whose owners have longstanding ties to Mr. Putin.


F.B.I. officials spent weeks examining computer data showing an odd stream of activity to a Trump Organization server and Alfa Bank. Computer logs obtained by The New York Times show that two servers at Alfa Bank sent more than 2,700 “look-up” messages — a first step for one system’s computers to talk to another — to a Trump-connected server beginning in the spring. But the F.B.I. ultimately concluded that there could be an innocuous explanation, like a marketing email or spam, for the computer contacts.


The most serious part of the F.B.I.’s investigation has focused on the computer hacks that the Obama administration now formally blames on Russia. That investigation also involves numerous officials from the intelligence agencies. Investigators, the officials said, have become increasingly confident, based on the evidence they have uncovered, that Russia’s direct goal is not to support the election of Mr. Trump, as many Democrats have asserted, but rather to disrupt the integrity of the political system and undermine America’s standing in the world more broadly.


The hacking, they said, reflected an intensification of spy-versus-spy operations that never entirely abated after the Cold War but that have become more aggressive in recent years as relations with Mr. Putin’s Russia have soured.
A senior intelligence official, who like the others spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a continuing national security investigation, said the Russians had become adept at exploiting computer vulnerabilities created by the relative openness of and reliance on the internet. Election officials in several states have reported what appeared to be cyberintrusions from Russia, and while many doubt that an Election Day hack (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/15/us/politics/sowing-doubt-is-seen-as-prime-danger-in-hacking-voting-system.html) could alter the outcome of the election, the F.B.I. agencies across the government are on alert for potential disruptions that could wreak havoc with the voting process itself.

Trump isn't the savior he wants us to believe, but he wants to change things for the good, enough is enough people take a stand. The dems just want the power and will continue to drag this country down the tube with socialism. Hillary is corrupt and a crook, a vote for her is a vote for the continuing demise of our great nation. All the dems care about is having power over us, not the best interests of the American people!

There’s a lot of uncertainty at the state level, especially in states that haven’t gotten much polling. You know what the three most recent polls in Colorado (http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/colorado/) say? Clinton +1 (http://20an0w2e66jla4rfm1idisr1.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/ABC_Press_Release-103016.pdf), Clinton +3 (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/cbs-battleground-poll-partisans-divide-on-news-of-fbi-emails/), Clinton +4 (https://www.surveymonkey.com/elections/map?poll=sm-lv-cps).

Now, those aren’t great polls. But people are acting like Clinton has leads of 6-8 points everywhere in her firewall. She doesn’t, and there are really only one or two high-quality polls in a lot of these states and basically none in others.

Now the week before the election they can't get a grip on who's really polling where. Ok...:rolleyes:lol

The internet freaks out after FBI posts old Clinton-related case files one week before the election

The FBI has once again raised some eyebrows by seemingly injecting itself into the 2016 election — although it’s far from clear at this point whether this particular incident was intentional.

On Tuesday afternoon, the FBI Records Vault Twitter account posted a link to files related to Bill Clinton’s pardoning of Marc Rich on his way out of office in 2001. The FBI investigated the pardoning last decade, but closed the case in 2005 without any charges being filed.

Someone fed the NYT information to quickly kill emerging Trump/Russia stories ... was it Comey? (http://www.dailykos.com/stories/2016/11/1/1589659/-Someone-fed-the-NYT-information-to-quickly-kill-emerging-Trump-Russia-stories-was-it-Comey)

On Monday evening, two potentially Category 5 stories broke concerning Donald Trump and his many ties to Russia. At 5:36 PM, Slate was up with an analysis of a server in Trump Tower that seemed to be directly, and exclusively, connected to an oligarch-controlled bank in Russia (http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/cover_story/2016/10/was_a_server_registered_to_the_trump_organization_ communicating_with_russia.html).


It dawned on the researchers that this wasn’t an attack, but a sustained relationship between a server registered to the Trump Organization and two servers registered to an entity called Alfa Bank.


At 7:52 PM, Mother Jones was up with a reveal from a former spy who claimed to have seriously shocking information. (http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2016/10/veteran-spy-gave-fbi-info-alleging-russian-operation-cultivate-donald-trump)

"Russian regime has been cultivating, supporting and assisting TRUMP for at least 5 years. Aim, endorsed by PUTIN, has been to encourage splits and divisions in western alliance."


But by 9:14 PM, the New York Times was ready not only to dismiss the Russian connection to Trump, but paint the Russian hacking of Democratic emails—and only Democratic emails—as a random prank (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/01/us/politics/fbi-russia-election-donald-trump.html).

Law enforcement officials say that none of the investigations so far have found any conclusive or direct link between Mr. Trump and the Russian government. And even the hacking into Democratic emails, F.B.I. and intelligence officials now believe, was aimed at disrupting the presidential election rather than electing Mr. Trump.


And just like that, stories that might have dominated the morning news were strangled in their crib. But … by who? Who gave the Times the very timely information it needed to attack the Trump/Russia connection at just the right moment?

On Friday, as the FBI was issuing a letter saying that they were looking into some emails that might possibly be related to the earlier investigation of Hillary Clinton’s email server, the New York Times found this worthy of every single column of the front page. On Monday, the information that there was a broad, ongoing investigation into connections between the Trump campaign and the Russian government rated a single article. On page A21. It became the instant “See? Nothing going on” that every Trump devotee needed to wave at the nearest doubter.

But just how did that article come to so definitively dismiss the issue (https://thinkprogress.org/the-new-york-times-very-fishy-article-about-trump-and-russia-979914ac9a86#.3ybya0ai2) while presenting no evidence?

‘Someone inside the government leaked this information to the New York Times. Did James Comey authorize this leak?’

The New York Times attributes the leaks about the FBI’s thinking to “[l]aw enforcement officials,” which suggests — but does not definitively establish — that the leaks came from the FBI. Martin says this raises the question as to whether Comey himself authorized the leak. If he did, it could be evidence that he is seeking to influence the election through selective leaks favorable to Trump.


And what about that jaw-dropping conclusion that the Russian interference with only Democratic emails, and the release of information timed to disrupt Hillary Clinton’s campaign, was somehow not intended to slant the election toward Trump?

An actual conclusion would involve, according to Martin, the participation of a variety of intelligence agencies under the supervision of the Director of National Intelligence.

In particular, the investigators would need to look at the NSA intercepts of Russian communications and have those intercepts analyzed by a specialist in Russian intelligence.

Have the “investigators” speaking to the New York Times reviewed that crucial intelligence? We don’t know.


This conclusion isn’t just amazing, it’s genuinely unbelievable. “Yes, I did hit only Cubs players with a bat as they walked past and ignore the Cleveland players, but I was only trying to mess with the game, not influence the outcome.”

There’s no situation in which the lopsided intrusion of Russia would be seen as the kind of chaotic-neutral action the Times story suggests.
As has become their practice of late, the New York Times made several subtle modifications to the story after it first appeared.

The New York Times, meanwhile, quietly altered their story on Monday night adding the caveat “conclusive or direct” to a sentence that previously read “law enforcement officials say that none of the investigations so far have found any link between Mr. Trump and the Russian government.”


The original statement was clearly untrue. The revised statement … who knows? Given the utterly banal description of the Times’ unrevealed sources, it’s impossible to place any faith in the information.

What is clear is that the New York Times has some direct connection to sources that are highly interested in killing off Trump/Russia stories — and doing so very promptly.
Who is behind that connection? That would be a good story.

HUMA ABEDIN NEVER HAD SECURITY CLEARANCE & SECRETARY CLINTON ALLOWED HER UN-AUTHORIZED ACCESS


http://hillaryforpresident.com/huma-abedin/



Huma Abedin Never Had Security Clearance & Secretary Clinton Allowed Her Un-authorized Access (http://hillaryforpresident.com/huma-abedin/)

November 1, 2016 Dr. Larry Kawa

* In documents disclosed to Citizen Researcher Dr. Larry Kawa by the US State Department, Huma Abedin signed a Non-Disclosure Agreement (SF-312) for classified information under penalty of perjury.

* In the agreement Abedin is advised against "negligent handling of classified information” could cause "irreparable injury” to the United States.

* In addition Abedin agrees that "unauthorized disclosure of classified information by me” could result in the violation of several intelligence and security laws, including the espionage act.

* Disclosure of classified information to Anthony Weiner through "negligent handling of classified information” would be a violation of this agreement, and a felony. Aiding and Abetting Huma Abedin to commit this crime or cover it up would also be a felony.

* The Non-Disclosure & the Separation Agreement also reveal significant deficiencies at the State Department as several sections were never counter signed by the State Department.

* The Separation Statement (OF-109) affirmatively states that she has returned all classified material to the State Department and does not have access to any classified information.

* The Anthony Weiner email scandal revealed that Huma Abedin still had access to classified information on her Yahoo! account, which was accessed from Weiner’s laptop.

* In other document releases, it was revealed that Hillary Rodham Clinton typically sent classified emails to Huma Abedin’s unsecure Yahoo! account to be printed. This would be a felony on the part of Hillary Rodham Clinton for illegally transferring classified documents through an insecure system, ultimately exposing them to individuals who did not have security clearance and potentially exposing them to hostile actors.

* On Sept. 22 2016, according to CNN and other sources, more than 500 million Yahoo! accounts were hacked. Hackers likely gained access to Huma Abedin’s Yahoo account.

* This raises the question that in addition to classified information existing electronically within Clinton servers, Huma Abedin has printed files of classified information that have yet to be accounted for. Such as revelation would require that a search warrant be issued for her home and business to search for classified material.

Statement by Dr. Larry Kawa

Initial access to these documents was sent to me by deputy assistant secretary of state Margaret Grafeld after my mail was tampered with in regards to a FOIA request I did for Hillary Clinton separation statement. There is still an open Senate investigation regarding a Mail tampering charge.

The first document known as an SF – 312 is a nondisclosure agreement for classified information. Huma Abedin signed onto the binding terms and conditions under threat of perjury. Please note condition number seven makes her potentially guilty under the espionage act… 18 USC 793 and 1924. She did not sign onto the required line swearing that she had a security briefing. That is a necessary condition in order to have top secret security clearance, a condition which was never met.

http://www.archives.gov/isoo/training/standard-form-312.html

She also was not accepted under the acceptance line since she was never briefed. The SF-312 is a document that every state employee signs on the on ramp as they begin their tenure at the state department.

The OF – 109 separation statement is a document they sign up on the departure to be sure that security clearance has been cut off. The state department under the watch of the Obama administration is also supposed to have a DS – 1904 form signed from someone at the state department to ensure that classified access has been cut off. The DS – 1904 form apparently was never signed in the state department has been unable to produce. Such is the case with many if not most of their employees.

The separation statement for Abedin reflects that she had knowledge that she swore under the threat of perjury that she not only had her classified access cut off but that she would not communicate or transmit any data to any person without security clearance, coincidentally she didn’t have security clearance herself. Ever.

Comey said, “The FBI is working around the clock to determine the origin and meaning of this so-called ‘cat jiff’. As of now, we haven’t yet determined whether emailing this jiff violates any federal laws or regulations.”

It takes zero information to start the Clinton 'scandal' machine, and the machine has no brakes (http://www.dailykos.com/stories/2016/10/31/1589191/-It-takes-zero-information-to-start-the-Clinton-scandal-machine-and-the-machine-has-no-brakes)

You start with the assumption that Hillary Clinton is corrupt. …

And if she's corrupt, then we definitely need to investigate her.

Virtually everything she does is suspect.

Any mistake she makes can't simply be an accident or a lapse in judgment; there must be some criminal intent behind it.

It doesn't matter how many millions of taxpayer dollars or thousands of man-hours it takes in FBI investigations and congressional hearings.

No price is too high.

And when you investigate endlessly, you find evidence. ...

And with all that suspicious evidence, the conclusion is clear: Hillary Clinton is corrupt.

And if she's corrupt, we have to investigate her.

And if we investigate her, we'll uncover evidence.

And if we find evidence, it must be suspicious.

So she must be corrupt.

So we have to investigate her.


How much information did the FBI release on Friday related to Hillary Clinton? None.

How much media energy did it unleash? Enough to shove the planet out of orbit.

What will it take to do it again? Nothing at all.

With zero information about what is in those e-mails,

zero information about any connection to Clinton,

zero new allegations of wrongdoing,

the Times and much of the media treated this story with the kind of wall-to-wall coverage usually reserved for the first moon landing.


As I’m writing, CNN is on telling me that

“the emails are still voters’ highest concern.” :lol AMERICA IS SO FUCKED UP.

"US Intelligence Community Agencies determined 81 email chains, Which FBI investigation determined were transmitted and stored on Clinton's UNCLASSIFIED personal server systems, contained classified information ranging from CONFIDENTIAL to TOP SECRET/SPECIAL ACCESS PROGRAM levels at the time they were sent between 2009 - 2013. USCI agencies determined that 68 email chains remain classified.




another 2000 emails marked Confidential were transmitted and stored on at least two of Clinton server systems.

The national poll means shit, this election is won by taking 270 in the electoral college. Clinton getting more votes in red states she will still lose doesn't help her win the presidency. She is losing ground in Florida and Ohio, either of which would have won her the election a few days ago.

This just came in on MSNBC with Lawrence O'donnel..

New survey in Florida of early voting has Hillary leading Trump 48 to 40%.

28% are crossover votes.

I couldn't fine it on their actual site so because this just came in but..bare with me..dailykos has already posted it.

COMEY SAYS F.B.I. INVESTIGATING HILLARY’S TIES TO BILL CLINTON

WASHINGTON — Dropping a bombshell less than a week before the Presidential election, the F.B.I. Director James Comey revealed on Wednesday that the Bureau was investigating Hillary Clinton’s ties to Bill Clinton.

The announcement, which Comey made in a letter to members of Congress, provoked immediate howls of protest from Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman, John Podesta.

“To say that they are investigating so-called ties between Hillary and Bill Clinton while offering no specifics about what those ties might be is unconscionable this close to an election,” Podesta told CNN.

Comey, however, stood his ground, telling reporters that there was no way the F.B.I. could divulge the results of its Clinton-Clinton probe before Election Day.

“We have reason to believe that the ties between these two individuals go back to the nineteen-seventies,” he said. “This is going to take some time.”

On the campaign trail, Donald Trump praised Comey, whom he called “my favorite person in the world right now.”

You can speculate all you want, but it doesn't change the fact that you aren't required to disclose your tax return.

there's also no requirement not to disclose tax returns just because they're under audit. it is suspicious, though...

But that isn’t an issue. Because the FBI can just latch onto right-wing conspiracy theories (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/02/us/politics/fbi-james-comey-hillary-clinton-donald-trump.html?_r=0).


The investigation, based in New York, had not developed much evidence and was based mostly on information that had surfaced in news stories and the book “Clinton Cash,” according to several law enforcement officials briefed on the case. :lol



The author of the book Clinton Cash has a long history of false narratives (http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/04/21/1379052/-Author-of-new-anti-Clinton-book-has-a-long-record-of-errors-and-falsehoods)belted together out of purposely distorted statistics, of basing his reports on proven hoaxes (http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/04/21/1379269/-New-anti-Hillary-book-relies-on-hoax-to-back-up-Keystone-XL-accusations), and of making baseless accusations (http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/04/27/1380600/--Clinton-Cash-author-can-t-even-defend-his-wild-claims-on-Fox-News) that he can’t back up. Almost as soon as the work hit the stands, it was shown to be full of errors and distortions. (http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/04/29/1381186/-No-surprise-here-Errors-surfacing-in-Clinton-hit-piece)The author even indulged in the alt-right’s favorite theory that the Clintons secretly kill (http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/05/05/1382635/--Clinton-Cash-author-dabbles-in-ridiculous-conspiracy-theory)their enemies.



And yet, the book was greeted like a revelation by the New York Times, which indulged in wild speculation (http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/04/23/1379692/-It-takes-ten-paragraphs-before-New-York-Times-mentions-its-latest-Clinton-hit-piece-is-speculation) on top of the book’s proven false foundation, and which didn’t bother to mention when sections of the book they talked up (http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/05/01/1381734/-Where-are-the-New-York-Times-and-Washington-Post-reports-on-Clinton-Cash-errors)turned out to be so wrong that the publisher actually made changes to the book (http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/05/14/1384687/-It-s-a-start-Anti-Clinton-book-gets-7-8-factual-corrections) to “correct” exactly those parts.

He might have said “all kinds of crackpots”—so long as they’re attacking the Clintons. That appears to be the standard for the New York Times.

It seems not an unreasonable expectation for a person seeking high office to abide by, and indeed it was a norm that the entire political class has observed for about 50 years.

Donald Trump’s FBI: James Comey’s department is filled with pro-Trump, anti-Hillary Clinton partisans

The Bureau seems to be filled with partisan hacks hell-bent on investigating Hillary Clinton

Under FBI Director James Comey, whose ethically challenged letter Friday has put wind in Donald Trump’s sails (http://www.salon.com/2016/10/31/donald-trump-thanks-anthony-weiner-for-fbi-probe-hits-hillary-clinton-for-being-mean-to-russia/), the Bureau has engaged in a partisan witch hunt (http://www.salon.com/2016/10/31/so-much-for-the-upstanding-james-comey-the-fbi-directors-long-career-as-preening-partisan-hack/)against Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton — and it’s all because there’s a pro-Trump bias.


As The Guardian reported (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/nov/03/fbi-leaks-hillary-clinton-james-comey-donald-trump) on Thursday, many sources within the FBI admitted to the newspaper that many agents were outraged that Comey decided not to recommend an indictment against Clinton in July.

“The FBI is Trumpland,” one agent admitted to the site, with another describing how Clinton is “the antichrist personified to a large swathe of FBI personnel” and “the reason why they’re leaking is they’re pro-Trump.”

While some of The Guardian’s sources disagreed that the FBI is overwhelmingly pro-Trump, all of them stated that the attitude toward Clinton is extremely negative.

“There are lots of people who don’t think Trump is qualified, but also believe Clinton is corrupt. What you hear a lot is that it’s a bad choice, between an incompetent and a corrupt politician,”

http://www.salon.com/2016/11/03/donald-trumps-fbi-james-comeys-department-is-filled-with-pro-trump-anti-hillary-clinton-partisans/

so the FBI macho-man goons prefer incompetent macho-man Trash to Crooked Hillary.

As if Hillary is the only crooked, corrupted politician.

Trash is vastly more crooked, corrupt in many more ways than Hillary, but she's fat, old, un-hot woman.

 James Comey’s Actions Place Him in the Worst Traditions of J. Edgar Hoover

 From the beginning of James B. Comey’s 10-year term as FBI Director, when he was appointed by President Barack Obama in 2013, he has repeatedly condemned the practices of FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover. Speaking of Hoover’s order to wiretap the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and use the tapes to drive the civil rights leader to commit suicide, Comey said in a Georgetown University speech last year that he keeps these atrocities of his late predecessor in mind “to ensure that we remember our mistakes and that we learn from them.”

The director, however, seems to have not learned from other grievous mistakes made by Hoover. The actions Comey took last week place him firmly in one of Hoover’s worst traditions: using the enormous power of the bureau, whether or not intentionally, to affect the outcome of a presidential election.

Intervention in elections was second nature to

Hoover, simply a part of his job. It was perhaps a logical extension of some of his other favorite activities: spying on thousands of Americans because of their political beliefs and plotting dirty tricks and even crimes to destroy the lives of people he perceived as enemies of either the political system or of American values as he defined them.

He kept massive files on the personal lives of members of congress and other people, including educators, journalists and activists in the civil rights and antiwar movements.

At a moment’s notice, he would dip into these secret files and select ones he thought could be used to defeat a candidate. Or, if he didn’t have a file on a new candidate, agents and informers would be dispatched to develop such files.

Unlike Comey’s recent very public foray into possible election distortion, Hoover did it all secretly. Americans had no idea that the widely admired

FBI director had secretly long assumed he could be a law unto himself.

The public and Congress learned about Hoover’s crimes not as a result of congressional oversight, as there was no oversight of the bureau during his years as director. They learned about it as the result of


eight people burglarizing the Media, PA, office, in March 1971. The files they stole from that office and made public by giving them to journalists—including to me, a Washington Post reporter at the time — revealed Hoover’s massive spying operations, including COINTELPRO, perhaps his most vicious operations, and eventually led to congressional investigations of all intelligence agencies.

Those investigations and subsequent research by scholars and journalists of FBI files, which became accessible to the public for the first time as a result of the strengthening of the federal Freedom of Information Act in 1974, led to the discovery of Hoover’s secret FBI, including his plots to influence presidential elections.

On President Johnson’s behalf in 1964, Hoover arranged for a high FBI official to search for derogatory information about fifteen members of the staff of Senator Barry Goldwater, Johnson’s opponent in that year’s election.

In 1952, Dwight Eisenhower appeared to be uninvolved in seeking FBI services against his opponent, Senator Adlai Stevenson, but members of Eisenhower’s staff asked for FBI help. Information was provided for a whispering campaign that claimed Stevenson’s staff was made up of “pinks, punks and pansies.”

An agent involved in the effort later claimed that “a lot of us were absolutely appalled by” the effort to imply that Stevenson was gay.

But, said the agent, “Mr. Hoover was determined to elect Nixon (the Republican vice presidential candidate) and Ike, and when he made up his mind to do something there was no changing it.”

Can you confirm axl rose as TSA tbh? :lol

:lol no, can't believe peeps don't know whose alt axl rose is

[Winehole23]

LE jumping into the political fray, running candidates down by discussing their cases in the paper -- however patriotic the motive -- is bad politics, a bad idea, and ultimately undermines confidence in LE as such.

[Winehole23]

It could undermine the case against HRC in court, if there is one.

[TheSanityAnnex]

LE jumping into the political fray, running candidates down by discussing their cases in the paper -- however patriotic the motive -- is bad politics, a bad idea, and ultimately undermines confidence in LE as such.

DOJ is to blame for LE/FBI resorting to these tactics. Fight fire with fire.

[Winehole23]

If Trump was the target you'd be singing a different tune, but I'd still be saying the same thing.

[TheSanityAnnex]

What did you say about the DOJ's actions in all of this, I must have missed it.

[Winehole23]

What actions are you referring to?

[Winehole23]

As I recall, the DOJ punted to the FBI to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest. You didn't like the result, so you call them both corrupt.

[Winehole23]

Let the investigation run its course. If the FBI makes a criminal referral, HRC has to step down easy as that -- supposing the FBI hasn't already shot itself in the foot.

Oops.

[Winehole23]

Doesn't matter what I think. It's not a requirement.regardless, don't you have your own thoughts on the matter?

Is financial disclosure a good thing for voters to know before they hand someone the levers of power?

Why or why not?

[Winehole23]

Seems imminently reasonable to me. There must be some reason every single candidate in the last 50 years has gone along with it even though it's not compulsory.

[Winehole23]

There is a big difference between law enforcement being guided by political pressure and expediency (war on drugs, crack vs. coke sentences, hate crimes, cakes for gays, etc.) than the Justice department intentionally not pursuing actual crime for political reasons.The FBI said the facts didn't support a criminal referral. One might infer the reasons for non-referral were political, but the case for that is purely speculative.

At any rate, whichever way the DOJ came down, the determination would have been political. You just don't like the result, so you cry foul.

[CosmicCowboy]

I wasn't referring to Comeys statement weeks ago. I was referring to the recent FBI leaks where they were saying they thought they had an indictable case and Justice was trying to squash it.

[Winehole23]

Professional difference of opinion. Boss decides, the rest of us are armchair quarterbacks.

[Winehole23]

Not keeping it in the locker room reflects ill on the FBI.

[Winehole23]

FBI agents talking trash on their own boss to influence an election is not how we do things.

Until now.

Republicans will rue this when the shoe is on the other foot.

[pgardn]

:lol no, can't believe peeps don't know whose alt axl rose is

i don't...

Cant say that it would make a difference though.

[Winehole23]

It's not a matter of if but when. The institutional norm is broken.

[Winehole23]

That said, I mostly blame Comey for his public explanation of non-referral and release of investigative materials. He broke the norm.

[Winehole23]

The fish rots from the head down.

[CosmicCowboy]

technically the gills, not the head. :p

[TheSanityAnnex]

Was this punt before or after the DOJ meeting on the tarmac with Bill Clinton?

[DarrinS]

Don't be mad at Comey -- be mad at Nixon, I mean Clinton.

[Winehole23]

Afterward of course. The appearance of propriety became unsustainable at that point.

Do you disagree with The AG's decision to hand it ovwr to the FBI?

[Winehole23]

technically the gills, not the head. :pI cede to your superior experience and stand corrected.

Oops.

What if all 30,000 of the "missing" Hillary emails are on Weiner's laptop, plus hundreds of thousands more that were deliberately ditched and we never knew existed in the first place, evidencing not only lying about the content of the 30,000 emails but the existence of hundreds of thousands more?
What if among the authenticated email traffic is John Podesta saying, just days before the Clinton campaign was compelled to produce said material they they had to "dump those emails", apparently proving intent to obstruct justice?
What if all of the emails that came from big public cloud providers are provably, to a near-forensic standard, to be exactly as WikiLeaks has presented them and could not have been tampered with because those providers digitally sign every email that comes from them and those signatures all validate back against those cloud providers, and those emails are thus in fact already known to be authentic?
What if the evidence on that laptop adds to the already known fact that Bill Clinton took a number of trips on Epstein's "Lolita Express" aircraft, some of them after dismissing his Secret Service detail, and implicates what was about to, or did, happen on those trips?
What if the evidence on that laptop shows that Hillary was present on at least one of those trips and either knew about or participated in those acts?
What if the evidence shows that the Clinton Foundation operated as a major pay-to-play operation and national security interests were implicated such as, for example, in the sale of uranium to the Russians.
What if some of the "pay to play" activity involves nations we have a sketchy relationship with or even those that are under some sort of active embargo, but the Foundation was able to "get around"?
What if these "pay to play" activities implicate federal Racketeering and/or bribery statutes?
What if some of the "pay to play" activity involves nations that have been implicated in international Muslim terrorism, arguably therefore rising to the act of treason since by our own government's own statements we are in a waragainst said international terrorism?
What if the Clintons actively conspired with Loretta Lynch to obstruct the ongoing investigations including but not limited to Bill Clinton's "chat about family matters" aboard Lynch's aircraft, a meeting for which no minutes or recording has been produced for the public?
What if for the first time in known history of FBI and DOJ investigations of such serious conduct with national security implications utterly nobody was served with a subpoena, nobody had evidence seized and material witnesses were allowed to corroborate and be present when others were testifying, and those acts were undertaken by the DOJ for the explicit purpose of both crippling the investigation and preventing a Grand Jury from seeing and judging the evidence in the case?
What if the FBI Deputy Director who headed up -- and is still in charge of -- the Hillary email server investigation has a wife who received nearly $700,000 in political contributions from a major Clinton operative and yet despite this clear and publicly-known conflict of interest has not recused himself or been forced to step aside?
What if James Comey was browbeaten into making a public announcement that was beyond his legal authority (that "no reasonable prosecutor" would indict) through political pressure but upon being presented with the new evidence on Weiner's laptop he couldn't stand by his previous decision because this new evidence made him sick to his stomach, convinced him that the damage to this nation was so severe that we might not survive it -- or both?
What if it turns out that Hillary's campaign cheated multiple times during the primary season when it came to being fed debate questions and other means of tampering with the primary election process, denying her primary opponent a fair election?
What if Hillary should have never been nominated in the first place due to her cheating in the primaries and the race should be "Trump .vs. Sanders"? What does that say about the legitimacy of the upcoming election if one candidate on the ballot cheated to get there and is thus not legitimately entitled to stand for election in the general at all?
What if the evidence shows how people "divested" and transferred financial interest in foreign firms so as to evade federal reporting requirements that would have otherwise triggered scrutiny on some of the Foundation's deals?
What if Friday afternoon comes and goes, Saturday, Sunday and Monday come and go, all or a sufficiently-damning group of the above turn out to be true and as a result the person who was at the center of all of these things stands to be able to pardon herself and everyone else associated with what would be, quite-arguably, the most outrageous series of acts of public corruption in our nation's history?
That we are here, just a few days before an election, that we have a DOJ that has actively obstructed the investigation for at least months if not longer and has a history of doing this during Obama's Presidency, including I remind you with "Fast-n-Furious" where a whole bunch of people got killed as a result of our government's illegal gun-running is an outrage.
The only thing more-outrageous than what has already happened would be if we were to get to Monday night, on the eve of voting, and all of those "What Ifs" up above remained unanswered.
Oh wait, I tricked you and I admit it -- some of those "what ifs" -- including some truly damning ones -- have already been answered in the affirmative.
If you know the answers to any of the remaining questions -- not a belief of what the answers might be but you are in possession of hard facts that prove any of the above, either in the positive or negative, you have a duty to this Republic and the people in it to make those answers known.
If you do not then you stand as equally responsible for every "Yes" answer that is ultimately proved, and the harm that comes to this Republic as a consequence.

[Winehole23]

"Trump is cheating taxpayers!"

Her husband pardoned a 40 million dollar tax debt of a campaign donor and illegal trader Marc Rich.Trump carried forward a loss borne by his creditors to shirk tax liability for over a decade -- in a magnitude at least twice that.

The amount was 2% of the total liabilities claimed that year.

So yeah, Trump screwed the taxpayer at least twice as bad as Marc Rich.

Legally, of course, so you probably salute his guile.
