FBI reopens investigation of Clinton emails

Pro-regime Russian banks have financed a number of his projects, going back to a planned resort in Russia several years ago. Ones they co-funded include Trump SoHo in Manhattan, as well as his resorts in Phoenix and Fort Lauderdale. Sources:

This is true and actually the main reason for my discomfort with her.


Like many of Saudi Arabia's efforts at funding Wahhabiism, it appears to have blown back in their faces. They're currently facing internal terrorism from ISIS affiliates. If you play with fire, you're going to get burned.

Well you being surprised isn't evidence. Please give some examples.

Really? Someone who pretends to love women, but laughs and brags about getting a plea bargain for a guy who beat and raped a 12 year old girl is better? Pretends to love women, but supports and takes millions from a state that doesn't allow women to drive and punishes them for being raped is better? This woman funded the group formed from Al Qaeda and funded IS for gawd's sake. If he was merely working based on self interest, he would have quit long ago. The death threats and the endless accusations have ruined him for life anyway. People who actually believe what they say are stopped from getting to this position (from Trump's enemies). He isn't being attacked etc because he's a nasty guy, corrupt or racist, he's being opposed because of his attacks against his own party, corporate interests, Wall Street, the media and most importantly, the war machine. Look at Jeremy Corbyn in the UK. Being against war is the most evil thing on earth where politics is concerned.

So if Weiner had access to classified material he could easily have been blackmailed.

OK cheers, I read a bit and will finish later. Some of it seems business related, but let's say he's involved with Russia. Russia and Syria are fighting ISIS, Hilary is fighting with ISIS. What's worse? And as much as Hilary loves to pretend to be against racism and a lover of democracy, she supported neo-Nazis in Ukraine, who removed a democratically elected leader.

Saudi Arabia is going down. The US are bound to attack them when they're done with them. We also need to remember Clinton's involvement in supporting the Saudis in their bombing of schools and hospitals in Yemen. And I believe if Hilary is elected she will go into Yemen next, after Syria is decimated.

First, there was his controversial immigration walkback a few months ago, which he immediately reversed back to his original position after getting threats:

Also, there's his ever-vacillating position on whether or not he wants ground troops in Iraq for a third time:

There's his abortion stance, which ranges from "I'm pro-choice" to "arrest mothers who have abortions":

This is a myth. http://www.snopes.com/hillary-clinton-f ... -about-it/


This is true. I'd say it's better to have a predictable leader who does the same things every political hack does, including supporting a nightmare state that unfortunately has been backed by every President since FDR, than hand the nuclear launch codes to a man who throws fits over people even saying he has tiny hands. That level of insecurity and inability to cope with pressure, speaking as someone with similar fragile-ego issues, is disqualifying for the White House.


A third Iraq invasion and tearing up the Iran deal, opening up a renewed campaign of congressional Republican saber-rattling, don't really sound like "anti-war" stances to me. This comment only really applies to Russia policy, where Clinton has indicated she'd continue Obama's containment policies which Trump has promised to end in favor of aligning with the Putin regime.

Neither one of these stances is war, and both candidates have been advised on Ukraine by Henry Kissinger. Who, for all his war crimes in the Cold War, is a realist who fears the power vacuum that'd come in the wake of Putin's fall and views the conflict as a careful balancing act. The American leadership has every interest in forming a secure perimeter around Russia and pressuring them for liberalization, both political (yay) and market (boo). They don't have an interest in actively destabilizing Putin's government, because combined with Russia's post-Cold War atmosphere of national shame, you are likely to get the rise of a Nazi-like far-right movement in that environment as well as a renewed campaign of Chechen nationalist terrorism. State security apparati are too risk-averse to invite that in a large nuclear state.

Trump called it more than a year ago!

I'll get back to you on this Pravda. I appreciate the links so thanks. I like your avatar too haha.

BS.

That's not how the justice system works. I would prefer if Trump didn't believe what he said (and I think he probably doesn't, he knows how the game works).

I've been pretty amused seeing the online reactions to the Wiener connection, it makes me think of the scene in The Wolf of Wall Street when DiCaprio finds out that his downfall is due to a deal with Benihana.

I hate to think of the country's reaction if Huma gets arrested and Hillary DOESN'T.

LOCK HER UP!!

The other thing that's driving me absolutely CRAZY, is them saying that they won't be able to figure-this-out before the election. WHAT!!?! !?! !? They should have many, MANY people on this, TWENTY-FOUR / SEVEN----INCLUDING weekends!!

As-it-stands, another reason NOT to vote for Hillary, is our having Tim Kaine as president, if someone in Washington ever finds the gonads, to arrest her!! He's as bad as HER!! He's a "used car salesman"----he's corrupt----he's slimy----he's brainless----he's a puppet.....

LOCK HER UP!!

Very possible. The emails are hers, not Hillary's

FBI found Huma's emails on laptop she shared with Weiner

^^ Yeah, I understand what you're saying----but, I'm thinking THEY'RE saying that the emails (at least, SOME) are from / TO Hillary, cuz they (the TV news) said something about needing to investigate if the emails were some of the ones Hillary deleted.

That link you posted is a bit disturbing, in that they said they had to obtain a warrant to "examine those emails" (Huma's), and whomever is to grant it could sit on it, maybe, 'til after the election----I mean, there's only 6 business days, 'til the election; that's not so strange. That warrant should've already been issued, IMO----warrants have been issued within HOURS, in other situations.

Also (still referencing this last link), I don't understand them needing a warrant, anyway, cuz they had a warrant, presumably, to seize Anthony's laptop. To ME, that would be like if somebody stole a car and robbed a bank----the cops would search the car, and it wouldn't have anything to do with who owned the car, I don't think.

It doesn't matter what's in the emails, the failure was keeping them in an environment where her aide's husband could have access to them. And she didn't get away with the mistake because the husband is Anthony Weiner.

New York Times: mails in Anthony Weiner Inquiry Jolt Hillary Clinton’s Campaign

Weiner could easily have been blackmailed into providing classified material. The damage is done. I think Trump will win.

^^ I think it ALSO matters what was in the emails, AND the fact that they were transmitted on a non-secure server. What if something in those emails put 330+ million U.S. lives in danger, if they contained military strategy, for instance, and they were to be intercepted by some really vicious people?

(I couldn't access your link, BTW, without an account.)

The emails being investigated now by FBI director James Comey did not come from her server and was not sent by her, the emails in question came from Anthony Weiner and his wife's laptop computers! Here's an article with all the facts about this situation!: Hillary Clinton's Emails: The Real Reason the FBI Is Reviewing More of Them

I think anybody thinks she is going to be locked up over this is likely mistaken. If she was not indicted over her emails, why expect she will be indicted over Huma's?. The only way it might happen is if Huma's emails show direct Hillary collusion in withholding evidence of deliberate attempt to hide classified information, but even that was not enough to indict her the first time around.

If Hillary is President she will not be indicted because impeachment is the constitutional mechanism set up for that. There is the Watergate precedent. The Grand jury wanted to indict Nixon but prosecutors were fearful about the constutionality of indicting a sitting president. They had a hell of time persuading the grand jury to not indicted him and ended up naming Nixon as an unindicted co conspirator. He was of course pardoned by his successor. There was more then enough circumstantial evedince to look into the Bush family connections to 9/11 but Obama said no.

Comey was trying to help his party and they did not not even realize it. If he indicted Clinton he would have taken out the weakest candidate in recent memory if not all time. If any other other Democrat but Clinton were running we would be wondering if that candidate could lose one state. But the Republicans bit the hand that fed them and now Comey had to do this desperation move to try to avoid his own impeachment. The party Republican "plan" seems be elect Hillary due to never Trump and hound Hillary for the next 8 years. Maybe they can get it right this time, they have not done so since 1992, but what the hell.
