Why is Hillary smiling?


Hillary Clinton is flanked by Reps. Maxine Waters, left, and Karen Bass, both California Democrats, at the California African American Museum in Los Angeles on May 5.

Officials: Scant evidence that Clinton had malicious intent in handling of emails
May 5 at 3:36 PM (WaPo)

Prosecutors and FBI agents investigating Hillary Clinton’s use of a personal email server have so far found scant evidence that the leading Democratic presidential candidate intended to break classification rules, though they are still probing the case aggressively with an eye on interviewing Clinton herself, according to U.S. officials familiar with the matter.

FBI agents on the case have been joined by federal prosecutors from the same office that successfully prosecuted 9/11 conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui — and who would handle any Edward Snowden case, should he ever return to the country, according to the U.S. officials familiar with the matter. And in recent weeks, prosecutors from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Eastern District of Virginia and their FBI counterparts have been interviewing top Clinton aides as they seek to bring the case to a close.

U.S. officials also dismissed claims by a Romanian hacker now facing federal charges in Virginia that he was able to breach Clinton’s personal email server. The officials said investigators have found no evidence to support the assertion by Marcel Lehel Lazar to Fox News and others, and they believed if he had accessed Clinton’s emails, he would have released them — as he did when he got into accounts of other high-profile people.

On the other hand that's been the rationale from the get go. I'd put it more colorfully but . . .

She wasn't as harsh in her comments as Bernie usually is, but it was crystal clear, and surprising to hear her say it on camera.

We know the source (rightwing operatives) and we'll know the outcome (nothing) but the Conspiracy Theory will never end.

I just hope DU maintains zero tolerance for Conspiracy Theory.

They are vowing to take this all the way to not sure where exactly ... Cleveland?



p.s. I was browsing the Video forum looking for the nutty YouTube Bernie lady and if you didn't know he was running as a "Democrat" you'd think he was the second coming of Ron Paul.



Some funny stuff in there, including one that dramatically ticks off his impossible promises including "free collage for every citizen":





p.s. you were 200% correct way back when
