Trump campaign schedule:

7/5: Rally in Raleigh with Bob Corker
7/6: Rally in Cincinnati with Newt Gingrich

Hillary campaign schedule:

7/5: CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA: CAMPAIGN EVENT WITH PRESIDENT OBAMA AND HILLARY CLINTON
7/6: ATLANTIC CITY, NEW JERSEY: HILLARY CLINTON SPEECH ON DONALD TRUMP'S FAILED BUSINESS RECORD
7/8: SCRANTON, PENNSYLVANIA: CAMPAIGN EVENT WITH VICE PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN AND HILLARY CLINTON
7/10: MANASSAS, VIRGINIA: MMPCDC FIGHTING FOR US BRUNCH WITH HILLARY CLINTON
7/12: NEW YORK CITY: HAMILTON: AN AMERICAN MUSICAL WITH SPECIAL GUEST HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON
7/13: ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI: CONVERSATION WITH HILLARY CLINTON

So from this, Trump is hitting real swing states (and playing defense in North Carolina) while Hillary is hitting swing states, playing defense in PA, but also going to Missouri for what seems like a rally.

I'm not surprised that the people who, after several committees, interviews and articles indicating the same results today, will still try to take their own interpretation of the FBI's findings and attach their own ruling to the case. As if their judgement and lack of detailed access to necessary information somehow supersedes the FBI's.

I don't understand. At what point do you tell yourself, "Hey, my incessant need to will a specific result in the face of information which constantly contradicts my personal narrative must mean there's clearly something wrong my judgement."?

Because quite frankly. This is all they had left. They were hanging on to a sliver of hope that this would happen. This is Benghazi all over again. Where nothing will come of it and it'll just be wasted time.

Comey is a long time liberal puppet and socialist tool getting in the way of American justice.

src: James Comey’s Rebuke of Hillary Clinton Fits a 3-Decade Pattern

LibTimes said:
To those who know Mr. Comey, it was a classic performance. Throughout his three decades as a law enforcement official, Mr. Comey, 55, has refused to shy away from thorny issues, often clashing with White House and Justice Department officials about some of the most high profile national security matters.

“This is not the first time Jim Comey has found himself in the middle of an intensely politicized legal issue, and once again he has demonstrated a high level of independence and commitment to transparency,” said Chuck Wexler, the executive director of the Police Executive Research Forum, who is a longtime friend.

In 2004, when Mr. Comey was the deputy attorney general, he was at the center of a dramatic dispute within the George W. Bush administration when he refused to reauthorize a secret National Security Agency wiretapping program put into place after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

Mr. Comey believed parts of the warrantless wiretapping program may have been illegal. The rift led to a showdown at the Washington hospital room of Attorney General John Ashcroft, as two of Mr. Bush’s top aides, Andrew H. Card Jr. and Alberto R. Gonzales, pressured Mr. Ashcroft to sign the order. Mr. Comey met the next day with the president about the episode, and he and more than a dozen other officials threatened to resign over what they saw as a usurpation of power by White House officials.

Mr. Comey’s testimony about the episode before a Senate committee in 2007 was the stuff of a Hollywood film, as he described racing to the hospital in an F.B.I. car with sirens blaring to try to get to the attorney general’s room before Mr. Card and Mr. Gonzales could reach Mr. Ashcroft. In his congressional testimony, Mr. Comey described the events as “the most difficult of my professional career.”

[...]

President Obama appointed Mr. Comey in 2013 to be the F.B.I. director, but Mr. Comey has not shied away from clashing with Mr. Obama’s administration. Last October, Mr. Comey gave a speech that said additional scrutiny and criticism of police officers in the wake of highly publicized episodes of police brutality may have led to an increase in violent crime in some cities because officers become less aggressive.

[...]

The speech angered senior White House officials who contended that Mr. Comey had no evidence to back up his claims and that he was undermining their criminal justice reform efforts. Just days after the speech, Mr. Comey met with Mr. Obama in the Oval Office to discuss their views, but he has continued to voice his opinion on the topic — even as White House officials have maintained there is little to back his views.

I just went to HA Goodman's twitter. I shouldn't have. It was worse than I was expecting. Between him posting the same video dozens of times over and over (for more than one video) is him claiming today vindicated him.

Sure thing crazy guy.

So to take this off emails for a quick second.

I'm having a rather heated discussion with someone on whether homosexuality is genetic or not. I assumed it is, but there really doesn't seem to be much to back that up that I can find on a quick glance.

I think the current theory is epigenetics in the womb or something like that? I'm not sure.

Seeing Hillary stand behind the podium with the Seal of the Office of the Presidency, is a fucking BRILLIANT image. Good on them.

Subtle dig at Bernie there, good job Queen.

Obama sitting there... you could start a meme on what's going through his mind.

He looks half-asleep, unfortunately! But I'll choose to think he's being "contemplative." Almost as though he's trying to picture him watching himself in that spot 8 years ago? Bill had a similar expression in this setting. Or perhaps he's thinking "you know, you going first would have been fine"?

She looks freaking fantastic at that podium, btw.

Edit: Yeah, and the Bernie thing. The actual sitting POTUS is out campaigning to support his groomed successor and the Senator is wandering aimlessly around DC with his secret service detail. Dude. You lost. Fucking get over it. He's a fucking nobody now.

That after the hard fought 2008 campaign was over, she ended her campaign, endorsed Obama and worked as hard as she could to make sure he was elected. Then went on about how our country is based on losers and winners working together after an election is over.

Not even a minute into Obama on the trail again and it's amazing how gifted he is at speaking. The news is in at work and everyone stopped to look when he started talking.
