I hope Podesta is 100% sure there is nothing else, because If i were Comey i would be like "Oh yea mofo about this email!!!" lol
 
Catherine Herridge at fox trying to say it might be about someone out of the government having classified info because the only reason they can do this is if the new info is important enough.

Can we use this moment to remind ourselves that Comey threw Republicans a bone in July with the reckless comments, which were totally uncalled for in standard procedures and blatantly partisan? I'm not calling into question his rulings or judgment, but let's remember he has always been doing silly things due to partisan pressures.

The media took the Republican's narrative bait about the FBI "reopening" the case, hook, line and sinker.

And now instead of saying they were wrong, cable news is going to slowly and painfully talk about "optics" without acknowledging they got it wrong the first time.

From what I can tell, almost everybody sent out alerts based on the initial false assessment that the FBI was reopening the case, without actually reading the damn letter.

Someone needs to rake the media over the coals with this overreaction. I assume the responsibility will fall on the shoulders of late night TV hosts.

Irresponsible bullshit from the FBI,they were vague as possible while linking stuff to Hillary when in reality it had nothing to do with her.

I swear to god Anthony Weiner destroys everything even when his political career is over.

when you're desperate to fill 24 hours of airtime with something, you have a way of figuring it out on the fly.

Jon Stewart said it well: "24 hours news is built for 9/11 events. So, in the absence of such a catastrophic event, they take the nothing and amplify it and make it craziness."

If anyone is bedwetting after this they really need to talk a seat and turn off tv and get some fresh air.

If this is a story past Sunday I'd be shocked.

Hillary's team finally released the second oppo?

It's a horrible video. Not getting much coverage so far though.

Posted 5 pages ago and got lost in all the email stuff.

I know this is from huffington post, and I doubt this would get much media coverage considering this FBI thing.. but this is also a thing.

It really is a very uncomfortable video, and shows Trump up badly. Hope it gets more viewing.
