1. That is not the JOB of the FBI

2. The FBI became corrupt to the bone under obama

“became persuaded that charging her was not appropriate because we could not establish beyond a reasonable doubt”

[blueunicorn6]

Actions speak louder than tales about what might have been.

[JimRed]

It’s not too late.

Correct me if I am wrong, but intent is not necessary in this type of case.

[MayflowerMadam]

“Correct me if I am wrong, but intent is not necessary in this type of case.”

You are correct, according to every legal eagle I’ve heard speak on the subject. (And she had “intent” anyhow; who do they think they’re kidding?)

Laws Are For The Little People

[Lurkinanloomin]

EVERY agency became corrupt under the Kenyanesian Usurpation.

Precisely why the founders excluded the children of foreign nationals from being President with the natural born citizen requirement.

[Lurkinanloomin]

ANYONE else that had done what she did would have been charged.

[Michael.SF.]

FBI General Counsel James Baker...initially believed Hillary Clinton should face charges...but was eventually talked out of it shortly after a personal tour of Ft. Marcy Park.

[Lurkinanloomin]

she had the intent necessary to violate (the law).”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That hasn’t stopped them from charging thousands of others.

Laws Are For The Little People Who Are Not Politically Useful

[Slyfox]

I discussed it internally with a number of different folks, and eventually became persuaded that charging her was not appropriate because we could not establish beyond a reasonable doubt ...

As he was discussing this he became "persuaded."

By one of Hillary's goons placing a loaded gun to his head?

[WKUHilltopper]

Laws are only for the chumps, not them.

[himno hero]

Every agency was weaponized for the development of their totalitarian state and the sellout of America and destruction of Western Christian man.
What do you really think Benghazi was really about???
look to how they opened the floodgates, providing Europe with a “refugee crisis”

That is what is in those emails.

Why do you think that so many people had insurance policies?

Why do you think Huma had one on Wieners laptop?

[fhayek]

I think the intent is verified by the degree to which she withheld and destroyed evidence.

[frank ballenger]

Intent...

---

As we all heard in 2016 after Comey let Hillary off as he didn’t think she had intent to do her gross negligence, and reworded statements so it was just carelessness and her card now read Get Out of Jail Free instead of appear in court, it is NOT the role of the FBI director or others to visit Johnny Carson’s Carnack the Great with his turban and a sealed envelope and have him say “Hillary’s inner mind showed no intent to commit federal crimes.”

[blackdog]

That is until the general counsel got to see the Seth Rich bike memorial bike rack outside the DNC offices.

[blackdog]

Leona Helmsley was sooooooo right.

[daler]

So, as Rush pointed out, the GOP sat on this information for over a year.

Had it been the other way around, the Democrats would’ve leaked it in a heartbeat, and demanded answers.
