FBI recommends no charges against Hillary Clinton over emails

FBI Director James Comey said "no reasonable prosecutor" would pursue a case but said the likely Democratic presidential nominee was "extremely careless" with classified information.

The decision ends the legal uncertainty that has dogged the Clinton campaign.

Just hours later, she appeared on stage with President Barack Obama.

Neither of them mentioned the case. Instead, Mr Obama offered her an enthusiastic endorsement at the rally in North Carolina - his first appearance with her during the campaign.

He said he believed in Mrs Clinton and there had never been any man or woman more qualified for the presidency.

Mr Comey was highly critical of Mrs Clinton and her staff: "There is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information."

The FBI's key findings:

-It is possible that "hostile actors" gained access to Mrs Clinton's email account

-There were more than 100 emails that contained classified information when they were sent or received, contrary to her claim she never sent classified emails

-But there was no evidence she had knowingly shared sensitive material

-She did not delete emails in an effort to conceal them

“No reasonable prosecutor” -that works for the DOJ or whose job is there because of Lynch or Obama. An “unreasonable” one would be fired on the spot if he tried to bring charges since their job exists only upon the whim of those two.

A prosecutor brought charges against mrs bill?

1. Charges have been brought
2. Prosecutor is fired
3. No more prosecutor
4. No more charges
5. DOJ declines to re- charge

See? “No reasonable prosecutor”.

I’m thinking it was just like being in the military, when you are ordered to advance every female working in your department by any means possible or face sexual harassment charges that will be detrimental to your upcoming time in service.

And then you are ordered to go stand at a podium and state that you have applied all the relevant training guidelines and now you are ready to “recommend for advancement” the following females.

All the ones in your division / department / unit / shop.
