    Regarding the last paragraph, the FBI came out and said that the Guccifer claim was false.

    “In addition, this week, a notorious hacker awaiting trial claimed he infiltrated Clinton’s server but law enforcement officials said the FBI investigation into Guccifer found no sign he got into the Clinton server according to law enforcement sources.”

    Nice to cite Clinton representatives in closing. Better for the POV you’re espousing here.

      You know that there being no sign he got into the server doesn’t mean he didn’t get into the server, right?

      He’s offered no evidence that could be confirmed and no factual details about the contents. He really needs to stay useful to the FBI, so if he actually had something, he’d give it up. He’s also a notorious narcissist.

    Hopefully, unlike the Benghazi Committee, the FBI investigators will manage to make an honest inquiry. America deserves to know the truth, for better or worse.

    Which is to say, when the FBI decides nothing happened worthy of indictment, the email truthers are going to pitch a fit like you won’t believe.

      Hopefully, unlike the Benghazi committee, the Republicans will know when to realize there’s no “there” there and give up.

      LOL, Oh Chuck, they always knew.

      I realize it’s probably your good nature that has led you to believe that surely Republicans wouldn’t just shamelessly politicize the death of a US Ambassador for years on end, holding far more hearings than they did over 9-11, blowing millions of taxpayer dollars in the process......when they knew there was nothing there, simply to try and score cheap political points and fire up their brain dead base........but yes Chuck, they would and they did and they’ll do it again in a New York minute.

    It’s weird to me that Hillary supporters care so much more about rooting for their “team” than anything else.

    Like, if you think she’s so ethical, why would you care about an investigation? Wouldn’t it clear her name, if she’s done nothing wrong?

    And if she has behaved unethically, don’t you want to know?

      Not to mention the fact that they are preparing to interview her means that something is actually there. What would be the point otherwise?

      Because we have gone through this BS so many times, Whitewater (nothing), murdered Vince Foster (nothing), Travelgate, Filegate (more nothing), BENGHAZI!!!(nothing). Cry wolf so many times and don’t be surprised if no one takes you seriously anymore.

    The fact that Clinton is a presidential candidate active on the campaign trail presents some logistical challenges for the FBI,

    Man, it must be nice to be a 1%er.

    Whenever I tell the police that they need to back off because I am currently running for King of Prussia. They are all like, “Sir, you need to put some pants on now!”

    Classism is alive and well in this country.

    Well, I hope Hillary points out that everyone uses their own email at the State Department. All the Republicans have been doing it forever! Normal state department employees are encouraged to sometimes use Yahoo or Gmail or whatever if it’s easier to load on their phone, and what she did is much safer.

    Why should she have to go through the hassle of dealing with their technology? I think this is because she’s a woman and people don’t respect her judgement in regards to what’s safe and what isn’t. If she were a man, I think she would be thanked for all the precautions she took by setting up her own server! No hacker would think to look there! Guccifer is just lying for attention.

    I really do think she’ll clear her name soon so that whiny hag Jane Sanders can shut her useless mouth.

      I’ve noticed the number’s dropping. Used to be $20 each time they felt horrifically wronged by leftist hipsters questioning centrist shitheads. Either they’re running out of money or they’re coming close to the contribution limit.

    How easy would it be to follow your final paragraph above with a quote from the very article you’re reporting on, which clarifies the extent of the supposed hacking?

    In addition, this week, a notorious hacker awaiting trial claimed he infiltrated Clinton’s server but law enforcement officials said the FBI investigation into Guccifer found no sign he got into the Clinton server according to law enforcement sources.

    Or, to frame the story in a factual way:

    .

    Email “Scandal” Tanking As FBI Can’t Find Evidence Hillary Broke A Single Law

    As the seemingly interminable investigation into former Secretary of State and former First Lady Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server finally begins to approach some kind of resolution, officials say there is “scant evidence” that Clinton had “malicious intent” and that, to the great disappointment of Republican conspiracy theorists across the nation, were “not indicative that charges are imminent or even likely,” according to the Washington Post.

      You simply cannot phrase it that way for two reasons: 1) This is Gawker, and they only paint Saint Bernie of the Bros in a favorable light; and 2) This is a Hudson Hongo piece, which means if the subject of the article is a white person — which is so unforgivable — that it must be maliciously phrased because the only objecttive of all white people is to repress, marginalize, or otherwise imprison PoC (and even more Hillary because she voted for the Crime Bill, like most everyone else in Congress — but don’t let that fact get in the way).
