Email Scandal Crushed As FBI Finds No Evidence Clinton Broke The Law With Private Email

By Jason Easley on Thu, May 5th, 2016 at 5:13 pm

US officials who have been briefed on the investigation say that the FBI has found no evidence that Hillary Clinton broke the law with her private email server.

..........................

CNN reported:

Some of Hillary Clinton’s closest aides, including her longtime adviser Huma Abedin, have provided interviews to federal investigators, as the FBI probe into the security of her private email server nears completion, U.S. officials briefed on the investigation tell CNN. The investigation is still ongoing, but so far investigators haven’t found evidence to prove that Clinton willfully violated the law the U.S. officials say.

The investigation is still ongoing, but it doubtful that the FBI’s upcoming interview of former Sec. of State Clinton is going to reveal the kind of bombshell that will change the likely findings.

Hillary Clinton has said from the beginning of this Republican created scandal that she did nothing wrong, and the FBI is on their way to finding that she was telling the truth...............

1. dupe nt

[JonLeibowitz]

9. Also relies on non-FBI non-DOJ anonymous sources. Yawn.

[leftofcool]

2. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! Does this mean the indictment fairy isn't coming to DU?

[fred v]

7. Shhhhh!

The Bernie Supporters will be devastated!

[DCBob]

3. Oh I can hear the weeping and crying from the DU Berners!

Good this fake scandal is finally coming to an end.

[alcibiades_mystery]

4. Some immature nutbags who also happen to be Sanders supporters are about to launch epic tantrums

Oh, Lawd, it's gone be massive!

[fred v]

17. Putting on My Flak Jacket Right Now

[leftofcool]

63. Do you have an extras?

[fred v]

72. No Need to Worry

Yea verily, the math shall Set Us Free!

[houston16revival]

5. Do you think this will stop

the Email Truthers?

After all the Chief Birther is running for President

He's even got an angle on the cheering New Jersey Muslim crowds on 9-11

so he's also a 9-11 Truther of sorts

They will never stop

Chat boards are already rampant with cooked up evidence to influence voters

It's all about paranoia, innuendo, logic that translates to truth for them

Doesn't matter if it didn't happen, they believe it did

[Leith]

6. Can We Stop with the Clinton v. Sanders Vitriol?

Have people forgotten that we are not enemies? The damn rethugs are the ones doing this, not your fellow liberals. So a couple people posted crap that they shouldn't have - does that mean war between people on the same side?

Well, I've tried to settle a couple other people down and they blew it to hell. I don't know why I hope that this will go any better.

Just so everyone knows: I'm very liberal. I lean towards Sanders, but I will happily vote for Clinton if (well, when) she gets the nomination. And DUers are supplying some vicious kkkons with some grade A entertainment with the petty bickering.

[bluethruandthru]

8. The hillary supporters have already decided they don't need Sanders supporters in the GE

so no need to hold back their vitriol.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

12. just because people wont fall on their knees and beg you to do the right thing

doesn't mean that hillary supporters dont want most of bernie voters to vote for her in the GE

[TM99]

14. No you just castigate us,

call us selfish children, and say you will blame us if Clinton loses to Trump.

Yeah, totally like what you just said.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

18. all of us do? really?

people who outright say the are both Democrats and won't vote for the democratic nominee should be castigated. everybody else is fine. they'll vote for whomever they want in the primary, and vote for her in the general

[TM99]

24. Yes, indeed.

Hell you just called us the 'lunatic fringe'.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

29. Those people who are openly advocating third party are a lunatic fringe

They do not define all sanders voters.

That was a defense of most sanders voters.

There was a lunatic fringe of Hillary voters in 08 called the pumas. This is a similar phenomenon.

[TM99]

34. You have not been paying attention.

I am not surprised.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

35. of course now that you lost that argument, you changed the point. how convenient

[TM99]

40. I didn't lose any arguments.

You think this is 2008. You could not be more wrong. How convenient it is to be so smuggly wrong and unobservant.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

44. lol. i said something as a defense of Sanders voters that you then deliberately misconstrued as an

insult to all sanders voters.

this is a reading comprehension problem or a deliberate misconstruing of words.

[TM99]

50. Y'all are so fucking tiresome.

Off to Ignore with you.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

55. you insult me, misconstrue what i say, but i am tiresome. LOL

[dlwickham]

57. but she put you on ignore

bet that hurt your feelings

[La Lioness Priyanka]

62. i am now emotionally crippled forever.

[fred v]

52. And what kind of Cheese do you want with that?

Plus, if Bernie supporters do stay home and thus facilitate a Trump Administration, damn right we'll blame you!

(Hmm, I wonder what the jury will say when you report this shocking blasphemy against the Savior Sanders?)

[TM99]

53. I don't do alerts.

Y'all aren't worth it.

Take your blame and put it where the sun don't shine. If Clinton loses, it is on no one but herself. If y'all can't get the votes, y'all don't get to blame the voters for that. Oh, sure, you will do so, but then we will ask you what kind of cheese you want with that fucking whine.

[fred v]

73. Oooooooooooooooooh, that's so Hurtful and Rude!

But I don't do alerts, either.

[bluethruandthru]

32. Never asked anyone to beg

I'm just tired of being told I need to support the queen or I'm not a good democrat. And don't tell me what the "right thing" is. She isn't the nominee and what's turned off every Bernie supporter I know is that she's been talked about as if she's been the only one in the race since day one. Some of us wanted to look at all the candidates and make up our own minds.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

36. she is not a queen. she got elected with 3 million more votes than your guy. nt

[bluethruandthru]

38. No. She hasn't been elected to anything yet. N/T

[La Lioness Priyanka]

43. ok. have it your way. she will be elected, still not queen. she did not inherit this title

she will win it by being a loyal democrat, a senator elected twice from a big state, and the secretary of state to a popular Democratic president. She is very popular among Democrats and so she will and is winning.

i have never advocated that sanders voters in the remaining primaries should not vote or that he should drop out.

[Zen Democrat]

56. You know, she'll be elected because she's Bill Clinton's wife.

That's how we met her, lying for him on 60 Minutes. I'll vote for her over Trump, but don't consider her some prize. I'm going into a mild depression because Obama's time in office is so short. I first voted in 1972 and Obama has been my favorite. I'm going to miss having the entire Obama family in the White House.

Bernie is the only policy enthusiast in this race. Hillary is riddled with holes and I have no clue what she plans to do as President because her speeches are a cafeteria line of talking points. And because Donald Trump is an insane neo-nazi billionaire, Bernie is his natural opponent. Bernie vs. The Billionaires. Bill and Hillary Clinton are a long-time political brand and I'm no longer sure what they are selling. Hopefully, she'll pick up some speed if, as most expect, she's the nominee. But right now, I'm hanging onto every single day that Barack Obama is President of the United States. No one will ever replace him in my heart.

[leftofcool]

64. Sexist much?

[reACTIONary]

51. Actually she's up 4 million now. nt

[Zen Democrat]

58. Since when does the popular vote matter when only delegates count.

Delegates are similar to electors. Al Gore had a million or so more votes than George W. Bush.

[leftofcool]

65. That was the GE. This is a primary.

[reACTIONary]

71. Yepm and she's up about 800 deligates, about 60% of those...

... allocated to date.

The point is that Hillary is not "the queen", she's choice of the Democratic voters. Go hillary!

[Renew Deal]

15. Whereas the Sanders supporters have decided to go third party

So no need to hold back their vitriol.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

20. only a lunatic fringe with a powerful DU/reddit/JPR presence have

most Sanders voters are perfectly normal democrats.

[Renew Deal]

33. You're right

[ucrdem]

10. They've probably known this all along and were hoping to sink her nomination.

YAY!

Huge fail, just as most of us predicted.

p.s.l ove the picture of sad Karl!

[La Lioness Priyanka]

11. i dunno who will find this more disappointing, freepers or du'ers.

i know this will be alerted on, but please read GDP and tell me that I am wrong to say this. so many du'ers have been openly begging/wishing for/praying for for an indictment.

[ucrdem]

22. Gonna be some serious sadz.

[riversedge]

69. I think it is a tie -for many!

[blackspade]

13. This is an opinion piece based on one CNN paragraph.

This is not LBN and the headline is disingenuous at best.

[reddread]

31. sausage and bacon

[840high]

41. shhh - let them have their joy. lol

[blackspade]

47. Might as well....

[leftofcool]

66. Bullshit! Did you read the part where "the FBI said"

[elmac]

16. What a waste of tax payers money

Just like the investigation into BJ Bill's uses for cigars other then smoking.

[Gore1FL]

19. "it was legal" is not the low standard to measure this.

It may have been 100% legal, but it was still proactively stupid. When someone makes a speciofic effort to do something stupid, I have a real problem with it.

[Grassy Knoll]

21. Holy Crap....

[Kingofalldems]

23. Boom. Republicans posing as Democrats not liking this one.

Yikes.

[baldguy]

61. +1000

[c588415]

25. My fortune-teller told me that Hillary Clinton is the chosen-one, and that

she is going to mop the floor with Trump this Nov.

[elleng]

26. BREAKING: HILLARY'S FBI INVESTIGATION 'FAR FROM OVER'

The officials say these interviews were planned well in advance, based on what has long been known about their use of the private e-mail server.

As for where the investigation stands, these officials say it is a long way from over.

FBI Director James Comey himself said recently that there's no deadline for finishing it. Asked if the Democratic National Convention would be such a deadline, he said no.

No conclusions have been reached about whether any laws were violated in setting up or using the system, the officials say.

[840high]

42. ...

[Grassy Knoll]

46. Seriously? From "I Make Up News" Pete Williams....

[leftofcool]

70. Pete Williams?

[certainot]

27. it's not good when so many on DU are as disappointed

about this as rush limbaugh and millions of dumbass motherfucking republicans

[dlwickham]

59. just goes to show that not all dumbasses are republicans

[Rose Siding]

28. Thanks for this!

[shireen]

30. thank goodness ...

This story has been grossly overblown from day 1 just because her last name is Clinton. I'm so damn tired of hearing about those "damn emails."

[Agnosticsherbet]

37. You just had to include Turdblossom, didn't you.

Oh, God, my eyes.

[UtahLib]

39. Not at all surprised.

Oh, but what's that rumbling and grumbling I hear in the halls of DU?

[mitty14u2]

45. But "Benghazi" "Benghazi" "Benghazi" GOP; We hate the Rule of Law!

But "Benghazi" "Benghazi" "Benghazi" GOP; We hate the Rule of Law! For are Party. Screw everyone else, we own Washington!

[Plucketeer]

48. "The investigation is still ongoing, but so far....."

SO.... just HOW DOES the title line equate to a clean slate for Hillary? How do "ongoing" and "so far" say "she's in the clear!"?

[rury]

54. Indeed!!

[leftofcool]

67. I guess you didn't really read what the FBI said eh?

[frylock]

49. lol @ "US officials"

Oh, okay.

[L. Coyote]

60. Reporting live from Benghazi, pundits are already refocused.

[nikto]

68. Benghazi and emails kerfluffle were all bs from the start---They got crushed last October, IMO

But the Clinton Foundations (and potential conflicts-of-interest) may possibly prove to be more troublesome in the long run.

Also, if the Goldman speeches were no big deal, then just release 'em, ok?


Just sayin'.


And yes, I will be voting for Hillary against Trump in Nov.

I just sincerely worry about the above 2 issues.

[beastie boy]

74. There goes Bernie's winning strategy...

And Trump's winning strategy, for that matter.

[azurnoir]
