Internet news mogul Matt Drudge reacted on Sunday to news the FBI had cleared Hillary Clinton by forecasting that a stormy news cycle would dominate the final days of the presidential race. Comey's head-fake just made the hornets nest even crazier! the Drudge Report founder tweeted. The conservative news aggregator added: 48 hours of madness upcoming!! It was not clear to what Drudge was referring, but the Clinton campaign warned on Sunday that any bombshell emails published by WikiLeaks in the final two days of the election would probably not be authentic. FBI Director James Comey informed Congress on Sunday that a review of new emails found in relation to the bureaus investigation into Clintons use of a private email server had not yielded any reason for charges against the Democratic presidential nominee. Drudge has been a fierce Trump supporter throughout the 2016 campaign cycle. Shortly after the FBI announcement, a headline on his website read: "CONFUSED COMEY CLEARS HER AGAIN!"

I understand whistleblowers, but it will be a moot point if she wins. If she loses, Trump has already said he will appoint a special prosecutor.
My point was, and it remains, that people need to stop entertaining the idea that NYPD is going to ride in to this thing on a white horse and somehow do the job of the FBI. They can’t. Classified information is the property and jurisdiction of Uncle Sam.
If you can’t even legally view something how can you investigate it? There is no jurisdiction for NYPD and they work for a crazy leftist Mayor so I would not even count on leaks from NYPD. It’s not their place or right to do the job of the FBI.
We need to stop such suggestions because people will be disappointed (again) and may even wrongly believe that NYPD did not do their job. It is a false hope and a waste of time to even dream of it.
Well Assange can’t be blamed.
He’s put out enough to justify arrest, charges being filed, trial, guilty verdict, and even, by my read, a firing squad.
The fact that none of this has happened is a condemnation of where we as a nation are, not of Assange.
I agree. Have made that same point many times - there is more than enough to convene a Grand Jury and determine if there is probable cause for criminal charges. The FBI had more than enough to do this and wikileaks has provided plenty of fuel to the fire.
It obviously won’t happen though. Our only chance of seeing justice prevail is Trump being elected and even then it would come at a big cost.
“They are the ones that don’t vote”
We can only hope.
Maybe NYPD can’t get involved in classified stuff, but they can publish emails in Weiner’s laptop referring to pedophilia, etc. Tomorrow. Just so voters know what kind of people the Clintons are.
Yes, a big cost.
I’d prefer she just suffer from whatever she has and die.
Criminal investigations don’t work that way. They are not wikileaks or congressmen. It is rare that cops “leak” information about an investigation - it prejudices the jury pool and generally ticks off the Judge.
Perhaps we will see if there are still patriots in the FBI.
Rush called this “dubious”.
I agree. To what extent does this help the shrew? I don’t see this
but to backfire on her.
Could we say it’s Bushes fault....op’s I mean
Obama’s FAULT??
[A few FR friends know, just for NOW.]
Again, that’s what I get for rushing.
Me too. I hate these people with a passion.
Some of the deletes on the thread are me (posting what I’ve told others privately).
Let’s just say that thread was quite timely and on-target.
That’s all I’m saying for now.
Mags are loaded. Confidence is high.
Right there with ya bro.
“So, Comey still thinks intent is in the law? Wow!”
They’ve been slapping murderers on the wrist for so long now, it doesn’t surprise me at all.
..all the email stuff about the Clintons,their foundation and all their pervert friends can be handled by AG Giuliani in January—did I just say that? LOL...
One set of laws requires intent. The other does not. For the latter, negligence is a felony - especially somethingg as over-the-top as this. No intent is ‘mishandling’. Intent makes it espionage.
One set of documents you sign before you ever get access to classified materials, and which she signed as well, requires you to acknowledge that under penalty of law you will take special care to safeguard and secure classified materials. They also describe the general basis for each classification level and you acknowledge that you understand that even if the types of materials are not labelled with a classification, that you are still responsible, under penalty of law, for safeguarding them.
The arguments being made on her behalf are simply absurd.
NEW hacked DNC Emails!!!
Hopefully, as she's moving boxes out of her office, Federal Marshalls will grab her by the arms and take her into custody.
