Samantha, a former DOJ attorney and DUer, is pretty certain there's an indictment rec coming from the FBI based on what she's read. So does elleng (I can't remember which department she worked in).

Any thoughts?

And I notice the HRC supporting attorneys (Im not convinced they are attorneys) like msanthrope and 1SBM have been pretty quiet....

Does not give a shit about Hillary Clinton's emails.

He said he was tired of the issue consuming the public debate.

But you knew that. I know you're a Bernie supporter. I was just curious if you had an opinion.

Peace!
