FBI findings tear holes in Hillary Clinton's email defense (Politifact)
Tampa Bay Times (Pravda) ^ | 07/07/16 | Lauren Carroll

Posted on 07/07/2016 9:23:23 AM PDT by shortstop

The results of an FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server as secretary of state shredded Clinton’s most-oft recited defense — that she never sent or received information marked classified. The results of an FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server as secretary of state shredded Clinton’s most oft-recited defense — that she never sent or received information marked classified.

Clinton made the case for a year and as recently as Saturday, hours after being interviewed by investigators.

Had this been a "Trump Issue", this would have been classified as "Pants on Fire" with real flames shooting out of the newspaper. Discusting fish wrap.

This goes hand in hand with my post on 7/5 where Ploitifact screws up again. There is no hope for this rag.

I listened to a bit of the hearings, and I noticed that at one point, under close questioning of a Congressman, Comey’s vaunted integrity completely dissolved.

If Clinton truly did not perceive she was breaking the law, then she truly does not have the intellectual capability to be president.

Exactly! If that is her defense, then she doesn’t understand the basics of national security

And people do not change, ever.

Have no fear! The rule of law, with demands that it be followed down to the dot and tittle, will be reinstated with a vengeance once there is a Republican in the White House.

Dear HollyB,

For an American, wishing to be an American president, it is not wise to have your hand out to foreign nations’ monies, to fund your doings on American soil.

Hillary has taken monies from Arab countries. She has sold TO THE RUSSIANS **OUR** uranium rights, which means they own the company mining it out from American soil.

So, if she gets all woman-squishy about something the Arabs do, unless we do something different - which she has spoken against - the oil will not flow, or become very expensive.

If she gets that same funny, familiar, feeling about something the Russians might do, they just might give us back our uranium ... after they have processed it into weapons grade material!

They rated this half-true in an earlier article:

Archived fact-check: Clinton's claim she never received nor sent material marked classified

The old one now begins with:

Editor's note:This is an archived version of a fact-check that has been re-rated due to new information. See the new fact-check here.

But, there's a problem: the Dept. of State had already published email that clearly contained a classification header:

https://fnn.app.box.com/s/7hako8mparyxptisygd1f5wcmwgjnzup

Look for the (C) near the bottom of the first page.

This is not new information. The author "overlooked" that widely-reported discrepancy when writing the original article.

OK, I'll say it: the author ignored that widely reported discrepancy when writing the original article, because it inconveniently conflicted with the narrative they wanted to promote.

This is a common behavior by the Enemedia. When you have to "fact check" the "fact checkers", it becomes clear that "facts" have nothing to do with it.

If I were the Trump campaign, I'd go with the four point plan.

1. The FBI clearly concluded that Hillary broke the law, but in the opinion of FBI Director Comey, there was no intent.

2. If there was no intent to break the law, then Hillary was either ignorant or incompetent in handling classified material.

3. The public and the media needs Hillary to answer: Were you ignorant, incompetent or a combination thereof?

4. People, do you really want the next President of the United States to be a person that is ignorant and/or incompetent (not to mention corrupt)?

Dear trumpinator,

re:

Which means she is a whore to the world to fill her pocket, and for the American citizen to go “chuck off”.

Why is the headline so potent but the body so garbage?

Enough of the hand wringing,
Two things need to happen:

1) Immediate call for Comey to resign from his 7 years remaining as Director
2) If Hillary is elected, on Jan 21, immediately introduce Articles of Impeachment, regardlessof who her VP is.

To do anything less means this country is irrevocably broken.

Factoid: Comey worked at Blackwater Capital before returning to government as FBI director. Follow the money.

Was listening to Rush who said Comey two choices The main one was
“She just didn’t understand the complexity of technology !”
My response.
The “DUMB BLOND” defense was successful!

Comey: “I want to be transparent, I want this conversation to happen.”

So does Clinton have the required competence in technical sophistication to be elected to public office?

If you look at the Brexit vote the ones for the EU disdain the idea of citizenship and patriotism. The elites want a world of rootless cosmopolitans and profits over patriotism.
