Are they trying to influence the election though, it sounds like they will "get her" in office or out. And, if she can get away with being immune to protocol, why can't they? What if there really is corruption at hand, and this is the only way to get action? Many "If's" I know, but maybe there is smoke for a reason. Instead of things being written off as "bad feds" people should move on with an open mind.

"Just askin' questions" is your angle then? Yawn, boring and unoriginal.

A trope so contrite and overused this election that you should be banned from the Internet for using it.

People terrified of trump, his ideas would be shot down so fast in the checks and balances. Clinton on the other hand will find ways to carry out her will. Fact is, worst election ever, we sorely need a true and respected 3rd party. I fear more what Clinton will do then the dumb whims of trump that'll get shot down anyways.

The thing I'm terrified about with Trump as President is what he'd do as Commander in Chief. Then there's the Supreme Court Justice selection that will have a big influence on things here in the US. He seems like the kind of guy that you don't want to be in charge of a lot of important things. While Clinton appear to be very ambitious in what she want to do, what politician isn't? I'd rather have her, an well tempered, incredibly smart, and calculated person, over Trump who seems selfish, and easily angered.

I don't even want to get to see the mistakes he make so people could say, "told you so." We don't have time for that, everyone would lose.

No.

But I still think it's worth noting anyways.

Why?

 

[Not]

Well when that cadre includes the fucking director, its relative headcount doesn't really matter

 

[Alucrid]

man and i always thought those FBI shirts were a joke

 

[Beer Monkey]

If you like Russia so fucking much, maybe you'd like it if we treated you like they treat their intelligence and law enforcement agents.

You'd be in the gulag for sedition.

 

[broncobuster]

That's been the narrative for 20 years, yeah. I'm sure they'll find something eventually.

So, either it's nothing or she's so wicked smart to out maneuver everybody for decades. Win-win.

Yeah, between hacked email leaks and years of federal investigations, that magical fire will surely emerge soon. But you know, maybe Clinton will just break some more protocol to obscure her corruption, but then surely soon all the righteous hackers will reveal her...

It's almost as if your "open-mindedness" is just an endless, logic-free chase of that almighty undeniable corruption that, for some reason, kinda looks like a carrot and is always just, JUST a little bit out of reach somehow.

 

[ezrarh]

The fact that so many of these types want her to fail actually makes me like her even more.

Just asking questions right?

You are most definitely not doing what alt-right posters have done before. Use scary language about Hillary with no evidence and yet use weasel words to lessen what Trump has been confirmed to have done and said.

No, you are an actual concerned poster with no agenda whatsoever.

What is she, some kind of enchantress? How cartoonish can you get with "she'll find ways to carry out her will" BS like nothing can stop her? Why isn't she president already if she's so bloody unstoppable, and running for her third term because she beguiled everyone into dropping term limits as well?

 

[Dude Abides]

Clinton's guilty of something. If we don't know exactly what and don't have evidence it's only because we haven't looked in the right place yet.

That's been the narrative for 20 years.

 

[TestOfTide]

Seriously, the week after this election, Obama needs to fire Comey and just give the position to Bill Weld. I'm sure Weld could clean the FBI up considering the last time he worked for the DoJ he ratted out a corrupt Attorney General.

Im sure they'll find it in the next 20!

Yes because Obama rewards whistle blowers...

Totally different situation and you know it. BTW Eric Holder did in fact say that he thinks Edward Snowden should have a lighter sentence because of the context of what he did.

The issue with the FBI right now is that there are deplorables in there that are working against the current administration that they are supposed to serve under. The actions of the NSA in many cases went too far, but at no point was the NSA working AGAINST the Obama Administration.

We need to put people in charge who will find out who these borderline-treasonous people are and remove them from the FBI.

 

[NobleGundam]

So Trump is Team Instinct and Hillary is Team Valor?

 

[Asgaro]

Few more days... Lets go.

I don't think it does. I think he felt forced into his blunder by said cadre potentially leaking it and lighting a match by calling into question the entire investigation.

This is how I see it as well.

I am buying the whole "rouge NY FBI office" angle.

 

[Piecake]

With 67 percent white male agents, the bureau doesn't reflect the nation. Did its conservative culture play a role in Comey's decision to reveal the renewed Clinton email probe?

The typical Federal Bureau of Investigation special agent is white, male, and middle-aged, often with a military background — in short, drawn from the segment of the U.S. population most likely to support GOP nominee Donald Trump.

I guess its not all that surprising when you look at the demographics
