simple, there is no indication now that Mueller’s probe is politically based.

Regarding the IG report, if you don’t think this whole thing is a sham from the get go, here is a paragraph from the excutive summary:

“As described in Chapter Seven of our report, the
prosecutors concluded that the evidence did not support
prosecution under any of these statutes for various
reasons, including that former Secretary Clinton and her
senior aides lacked the intent to communicate classified
information on unclassified systems. Critical to their
conclusion was that the emails in question lacked
proper classification markings, that the senders often
refrained from using specific classified facts or terms in
emails and worded emails carefully in an attempt to
“talk around” classified information, that the emails
were sent to other government officials in furtherance
of their official duties, and that former Secretary Clinton
relied on the judgment of State Department employees
to properly handle classified information, among other
facts.
We further found that the statute that required the
most complex analysis by the prosecutors was Section
793(f)(1), the “gross negligence” provision that has
been the focus of much of the criticism of the
declination decision. As we describe in Chapters Two
and Seven of our report, the prosecutors analyzed the
legislative history of Section 793(f)(1), relevant case
law, and the Department’s prior interpretation of the
statute. They concluded that Section 793(f)(1) likely
required a state of mind that was “so gross as to almost
suggest deliberate intention,” criminally reckless, or
“something that falls just short of being willful,” as well
as evidence that the individuals who sent emails
containing classified information “knowingly” included or
transferred such information onto unclassified systems.
The Midyear team concluded that such proof was
lacking.”

Pay particular to the glossing over the gross negligence matter. It totally ignores she set up this server to avoid any scrutiny. IOW, she intended to bypass any oversight and de facto any worry about security.

There you have it. I read the rest of the summary and am not going to bother reading the full report because there is no there there. It is total whitewash. No mention by the way of the misuse of the NSA info BECAUSE that was not a DOJ matter. We have been led down this rabbit hole to bury the whole mess in the sum up phrase: errors of judgement.

Isn’t this chapter about Comey’s finding and recommendations over HIS so called investigation into Hillary’s wrong doing?
