It's possible that Weiner's laptop will incriminate Hillary. If so she'll be prosecuted. Why react to conclusions not yet reached? Why rush?

    Why would she do something so stupid? 

    Is she really this stupid?

  • If she did something wrong.  It's because she didn't think she would get caught or that she would face consequence.

    Get OUT of here. 

    Come on.   Yes, she is the White House Village Idiot.  I'm sure she has loads to chat to Anthony Wiener about that she would trust him to keep secret. 

    He cannot even keep his schwantz secret.

    Hillary didn't do anything! 
    The computer belongs to Weiner.
    Her secretary, Hama Abedin transferred her work from Hillary's office to Weiner's computer, so she could work on stuff at home. So it must have been before Weiner got in trouble. 
    Hillary didn't even know about it! 
    No one even knows what is on the computer, besides Weiner's weiner. No one is reaching for conclusions. That is what the problem is---Comey was so vague.

  • Hillary has been found to have sent classified emails and illegally used a server.   The FBI concluded she did it and that is clearly expressed as a crime whether done knowingly or unintentionally.  She was just graced by not being prosecuted for it.  She did it,  that can't be denied.   For some reason, those in charge of prosecuting her allow people in her position to use ignorance of the law and no bad intentions as an excuse while not granting the same privilege to the average citizen.
    What you're failing to acknowledge is that what is on his laptop may provide further evidence and worse instances of her crimes if some of the missing emails are to be found on his computer.

    Hillary dodging a bullet is true for sure, but it was also reported that Colin Powell (a Republican) also used a private server, which he should not have, and he was not prosecuted and Gen. Petraeus gave away who knows what information to his squeeze and the only thing he suffered was a demotion in rank and loss of pay - no jail time.

  • True. That's kinda why it peeves me.  These people always get away with this crap and now one who's again gotten away with some BS is likely to be president.  The whole lot in DC R&D needs to be cleansed. This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at November 1, 2016 9:26 PM MDT

    There's no question that Washington, DC is a swamp.  At least most swamps at least contribute to the environment or ecology.

    There is already enough incriminating that this should not matter. We know she ran the private server that everyone knew was the wrong thing to do and tried to cover up. We know she used that server for classified information. We know she deleted emails under subpoena.

    The only thing left this could prove is that some of the emails she deleted while under subpoena were classified or even not-personal.

    If she will be prosecutued is a good question because the person at the DOJ that is helping with the case now is a long time associate and friend of John Podesta who is hillary's campaign manager. Podesta credits him with keeping him out of prison. I think that fact alone is enough to make even the most dense hillary supporter realize that the DOJ is giving hillary a free ride as much as they can.

    Re: "There is already enough incriminating that this should not matter."

    You mean "incriminating" as in criminally prosecutable?

    May I remind you of the official statement of James Comey after the FBI investigated the e-mail flap?

    https://www.fbi.gov/news/pressrel/press-releases/statement-by-fbi-director-james-b-comey-on-the-investigation-of-secretary-hillary-clinton2019s-use-of-a-personal-e-mail-system

    Here, I'll pull the relevant quote for you...

    "In looking back at our investigations into mishandling or removal of classified information, we cannot find a case that would support bringing criminal charges on these facts. "

    But I suppose you know better than the people who actually investigated the question...;-D....

    What things? If there was anything substantial, the FBI/Justice Dept. prosecutors could add those "things" to their investigation and reevaluate whether the totality rises to the level of indictable offenses.

    To date, the FBI/Justice Dept. has NOT done so, and there is NO INDICATION EITHER WAY as of yet whether the Abedin/Weiner e-mails will be relevant at all.

    But you go right ahead continuing to jump to your politically-preferred conclusions...;-D... This post was edited by OldSchoolTheSKOSlives at November 1, 2016 9:54 AM MDT

    Why rush?

    Because there's an election on Nov. 8 and it's vitally important to RWAFs that TEH STOOPID EBIL LIBRUHLZ not win.

    The reality of the FBI not finding sufficient evidence to prosecute HRC over the original e-mail flap, and the probable irrelevance of the Abedin/Weiner e-mails to any alleged wrongdoing by HRC is no reason to NOT make wild speculative accuations.

    sI can't imagine what they could find on Anthony Weiner's laptop that could be considered a "smoking gun."  With all the emails the FBI DOES have, with all the testimony the eight Republican-led  investigative committee elicited, what could they possibly find in the next 7 days that would be a game-changer?

    We might ask that of Comey. We should ask him why he refused to sign on to saying anything about the investigation into Russian hacking of US files because it is too close to an election but he has no problem telling Congress all about the new find which "might have pertinent information" related to Hillary's emails. The guy is either a complete doofus or partisan...possibly both. Thank you for your reply Spunky and Happy Wednesday! :)
