Just commenting that UK recently has been going through the same type of thing, with a vast outpouring of grief and outrage from victims and prosecutions of high-ranking Parliamentarians, educators and celebrities who abused or trafficked children. I haven't read any connection to the Clinton Foundation, not that it is necessarily ruled out; but view both situations as a result of the confluence of the uncovering of the phenomenon of child sex abuse since the 80s, the legitimate victim's rights movements, and the Internet giving people the ability to join forces.
As bad as the Internet can be, it also, like the explosion following the introduction of Gutenberg's printing press, can move political freedom forward powerfully. The printing press helped bring about the Reformation, which ultimately helped not just to form the Protestant movement but also to reform the Catholic church from within and without; but it also set off a chain of wars and conflicts resulting in the deaths of hundreds of thousands, as Catholics and Protestants duked it for out over a century. In fact, that conflict continued on in Ireland until just not too long ago. We now may think it simply a religious difference; but it's well to recall that the Holy Roman Empire was the government, and the schism helped break the political hold of the Roman Church, without which the development of the American frontier and the U.S. Constitution would have taken a much different route.
So, with all the lancing of this child abuse boil in the West, we can perhaps look forward to better days in the long future, not without many casualties getting there— especially if there is a rebellion against the current corruption that can so clearly be shown to be the result of marxism, "liberation" theology, sexual deviance and exploitation. I thought the possibility of a third Great Awakening for America was dim, but now, maybe there's hope we can be missioniaries to the lost in our own country once again.
How many bombs did it take, do you think, for the Allies to free Europe?
Reddit is doing its part.
Well, don't hold your breath waiting for justice with that guy. Isn't he the one who persecuted Dinesh d'Souza?
So, this recent scandal with Yahoo being hacked and every user having to reset their passwords -- was that a foreign government, a leak site, or our own government pushing a "reset" button after digging through the Weiners' cybertrash?
I guarantee you Giuliani, Christie, David Clarke and maybe even Arpaio and Cruz will have the indictments ready to go right after the Inauguration, between the Parade and the Ball. Or, knowing Trump, maybe between the Oath of Office and the Luncheon.
Perhaps, but then again, even the most successful criminals ( i.e.: pathological liars, cheats, thieves, murders, rapists, con-artists and bank robbers) are eventually caught because their own hubris and conceit. They are so successful for so long that they believe they are untouchable and as a result makes them lazy and sloppy which leads them to develop bad habits and make stupid mistakes that result in getting their asses nailed to the wall.
So, while I know it’s wishful thinking on my part, but perhaps the Bill & Hillary and their cronies believed they were untouchable and got sloppy, lazy and careless. Hence the trove of emails that are now in the possession of the NYPD and FBI.
Just a thought.
Just look at the Mark Rich pardon. It’s not even an issue in this campaign. They know they can take the hit from the press on a pardon and in the long run it will fade away...as long as the guy doesn’t go out and kill someone later. Looking back 10 years or more and wishing someone got punished for something isn’t what the average person’s mind usually stays focused on. Unless, again, we’re talking about something as gut-wrenching as murder.
One or more may commit suicide before then. Clinton is an ex-President of the US. If he gets rung up for pedophilia (ala Denny Hastert), he may decide to eat a bullet. Him and some of his guys.
It’ll be Hitler’s bunker time in DC.
You just watch. Before this is done, they may find evidence of a gratuity to Comey. He was the lead investigator of the Rich pardon. You see, what’s going on right now is a veritable Rosetta Stone of crime.
This is going to lead the FBI and it’s investigators in many directions.
I stand with my comment. I’m no sage. You may be proven right.
It worked for Obama, concealing his past, sealing his records, etc. That may have given her a false sense of possibility. But she had a long track before apparently sooros adopted her as his special pet. Now she just does as she is told, even if they have to shoot her up with drugs to trot her in front of an audience.
“...eat a bullet...”
If he were to be prosecuted and put on trial, I have no doubt that is exactly what he’d do. His fragile ego cannot bear the strain or accept the consequences of his actions. He and Hillary see themselves as modern day Ceasars. But what they fail to remember is that history is full of instances where the most powerful and wealthy people on earth (Ceasers, kings and queens)were overthrown, humiliated, imprisoned and even executed by the peasants.
One can only hope that the peasants rise up in next Tuesday and the FBI / NYPD put Bill, Hillary and all of their cronies in their proper place - PRISON.
I’ll concede she had reason to believe she’d get away with it, but that was assuming her opponent was Jeb Bush.
As soon as she realized it was going to be Trump, she should have faked a seizure and ducked out of the race. Not doing so will be her undoing.
Go Trump!
Best election ever.

Top FBI knew NY Cops had added FBI email relevant to the Breach-Bit “investigation”, weeks before James Comey notified Congress. Jim was told before allowing renewal of trashing America HRC tenure as secretary of state. From the corrupt Jim Comey cartel, “the investigative team briefed me yesterday” to buy time and run the clock. Hill’s conduit, Huma Abedin, pumped to Packistan via the Weiner. Jim did not notify anyone outside the cartel.
Since notifying Congress, Jim has drawn cover criticism from GOB R&Ds, Intel, and former law enforcement officials for cya in a sacred period...
Oct. 3, Weiner, and a Comey crush, vaccination scrub. Abedin, like Clinton (State), Obama and others, used email address that were routed through select foreign and open servers. NYPD hit thousands of fed mil, doe... emails, they notified Washington.
Blind by design, Comey had said all investigation is complete (nothing here folks) prosecutors just move on, dog waging the tail. After wimp agents on team Comey were notified in early October about a Yahoo State Dept (Comprehensive, 4 year Archive), they told other FBI “leaders”. The leaders did not believe they had enough information to make a decisio, for weeks worring as to what to do next, statutory large bonuses awarded for excellence in assuring nothing, as appropriate.

Those of us who dealt with TS SCI don't think those other crimes to be more serious.
What could be more serious than "information, the unauthorized disclosure of which reasonably could be expected to cause exceptionally grave damage to the national security."
That effects the existence of our entire Nation. We've had people give their lives to obtain and protect that information because they knew it was more important than themselves.
Those other crimes are just the olives on the sandwich. The espionage is the meat.
I agree.
It’s all serious. Most serious.
but what does that have to do with this Lolita express stuff?....
We understand the damage more than the average person. With the announcement that the FBI is now seeking indictments for "Pay for Play via the Clinton Foundation" it may be that they thought they had a better chance of prosecuting without the public (Dems) rioting due to lack of understanding about the security "stuff".
I completely agree. When national security is compromised, people die.
However, remember the barely educated electorate which the Democrats use to maintain power. Many of them think that the classification system exists to keep information away from citizens. (In fact, that is what many in my family believe; as my screen name implies, I come from a very liberal family. They actually scoff at me if I say I won't discuss a subject related to national security.) If they think that the intelligence community exists to keep American citizens in the dark, then why would they care if Hillary sells TS SCI level material to our enemies?
On the other hand, evidence of some of the other crimes might break through their complacence. Even if they don't see the seriousness of compromising national security, they might recognize that exploiting children, for example, is a serious crime.
