You provided nothing. Oh, did I forget to mention that Trump will win? Stock up tissues when Hillary is cast into the ash heap of history.

Hey! Hillary Clinton could shoot Donald Trump in the middle of 5th Avenue and not lose my vote.

Will you guys please stop using RT, Russian Times

Lol! It took him all of two posts to go back to referencing rt. I hope he's getting paid well by the Russian government because I just can't believe someone is this stupid to be repeatedly posting propaganda and believing it after being told multiple times that he's simply spewing propaganda.

Is someone seriously making an argument for Trump because they are complaining about corruption?

The only reason this is even a close discussion is because of the complete asymmetry of information.

The Clintons have been subject to 30 yrs of attacks, investigations and misinformation. Let alone targets of hacking and subterfuge by the Russians (ahem, wikileaks..) Despite the accusations, they have very little that isn't public knowledge. What do have they have to show for it other than pretty bullshit?

Trump, OTOH, has gotten away disclosing almost nothing.

We know almost nothing about his business dealings, who he owes money to, and where is money is. Taxes? Nothing.
He has no plan to separate himself from his business, other than giving it to Uday and Qusay to run, and have us trust him to be honest.
For real. His idea of putting up his business to a "blind trust" is to have it run by his children. (!?) God awful things previously unimaginable in the U.S. would happen before our eyes.

You're forgetting he knows exactly what business he is in. There is nothing blind about it even if he transferred management of Trump Industries over to a complete unknown.
Blind trusts are traditionally money that's invested by an unknown 3rd party.

This election has been quite an eye opener... it's been fun watching the Republican Presidential candidate defend Putin while Trump and conservatives are embracing Russians hacking into their political opponents emails, quoting or linking to the Kremlin propaganda outlet, RT, and seeing Wikileaks and Assange piss away any idea that they aren't partisan political hacks and Russian tools. What's even richer is that these same morons whine about their own government spying on them...lol! Republicans have done an excellent job in getting conservatives to mistrust and hate their own government to the point that they look to Russia to help them win the Presidency. They built this but they don't want credit for it.

I'll help remind them that they own it when I find them being forgetful about history.

That would probably win her a ton of votes from Republicans who don't like Trump...

And the first Dem to get an NRA sticker of approval in decades. Hell, for half of republicans, it's merely the opinion of the NRA that they need before making their deplorably uninformed decisions. Imagine having that kind of mandate, and all she would need to do is shoot that guy.

I'm not saying she should, I don't think she should, but other people have said it. So maybe we should consider what people are saying?

Would Hillary shoot Donald on a public street to win the POTUS?

You silly young man! Don't you understand there's no history, only the moment. No context, no historical perspective, only the here and now.

First, the Podesta email does not indicate Clinton was unaware of them funding ISIS, in fact it indicates Clinton is accusing them. Second, the Qatar gift was in 2011, ISIS didn't exist until 2014.

2011, 2014 those are mere arbitrary dates on a calendar they don't mean anything when it comes to the unending corruption of killary or the plot by the evil liburals to sell out America to the muslims and turn us all into gay marriaed muslims who hate guns at the walmart fema camps while instituting sharia law and killing all the now gay married conservatives as part of Agenda 21 which will take all the cars and force us to ride on red china busses and ride bicycles everywhere and taking in 600 million syrian refugees will each be given a house and a gun to make americans their slaves and making every red blooded american male (who is already gay married) lower in value to a refugee woman.

And Benghazi.

Except when thy want to point that minorities should love the GOP because Lincoln freed the slaves 163 years ago.

The rape case was dismissed at the plaintiffs request.

IIRC, the FBI Director is appointed for 10 years, he could stick around if he's into abuse....

The statutory rape case was a civil case, withdrawal by plaintiff is the normal way to end them upon a large undisclosed cash settlement from the defendant (or in Trump's case, most likely some other backer's money).

It is true that FBI director's now are limited to a single ten year term (a reform put into place when J. Edgar Hoover finally died) but it isn't like tenure. They can be fired-St. Ronnie fired one.

I don't advocate firing Comey, but he either has lost control over the FBI or doesn't care about the political leaking from his staff. This whole FBI situation cries out for a real, honest bipartisan Congressional investigation-which will never ever happen under present GOP policies. If for nothing else it would interfere or divert publicity from the literally dozens of Hillary political inquisitions they have planned.

Comey's not going to be fired, but it wouldn't surprise me at all to see Clinton appoint an Inspector General to figure out wtf is going on inside the agency.

It may really be nothing other than retired FBI guys & sensationalist media spreading the bullshit. OTOH, Comey's Oct 28 letter may have been in response to fear of agency damaging leaks from the NY office. Or any number of other possibilities.

If it follows Repubs' SOP, there's a helluva lot more bullshit than substance, bet on that.

In other news.. the markets are sighing a breath of relief that America will likely not vote to seppuku tomorrow.

On the eve of the U.S. presidential election, global stocks jumped Monday and U.S. shares were set to snap their longest losing streak in 36 years after FBI director James Comey said the agency is not recommending criminal charges against Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton over her emails

Surely you jest. They just switched the angle of attack to the Clinton Foundation as if the whole thing never happened.

Today should be interesting, for sure. Expect epic bullshit & raving. It's their last chance.

Giuliani clearly did know about the letter, you could tell he was just dying to reveal more when he was asked about it like a gleeful child trying to keep a secret. He has a lot of connections to FBI agents so I'm not at all surprised he would have heard something about it. That doesn't mean the FBI purposefully leaked something, it means some agent(s) blabbed to him about it.

I don't have a clue what the meeting between Lynch and Clinton was about, but it damned sure was not a friendly chit chat about grandchildren. It was inappropriate, but I doubt it had any bearing on what happened with the investigation. If I had to bet, I'd bet that it was Clinton basically telling her: "hey, level with me, we're in private and nobody will know, what's going to happen with this stuff?", but that's just baseless speculation on my part.
My guess is that Bill took the opportunity to get an update from Lynch on the investigation away from prying eyes.

And this is why Comey should have shut the fuck up until he actually had something. He clearly swayed the election for no defensible reason.

Comey needs to resign and the FBI needs to be investigated to find the leakers and have them fired.
lol Another leftie longing for the politics of Russia.

lol this is too easy

There is a whole book about the scams the Clintons have pulled at the "foundation" that personally enriched themselves and their staff in which the majority of donations have been paid out as salary and expenses in the latter years. But you keep ignoring all of that since it does not fit your beliefs about the Clintons. And since you cant bother to do your own research, you are a poor excuse for an atheist.

She is as dirty as the day is long.

And look here it is coming out of the horses mouth just this weekend:

https://www.rt.com/usa/365442-clinton-foundation-qatar-emails/

But please, do vote for her. :rolleyes:
Besides the fact that absolutely nothing from the Russian Times can ever be trusted, SCOTUS set the bar for prosecution of corruption impossibly high. Foreign governments and businessmen are free to give millions to the Clintons and receive favors in return as long as o one is stupid enough to actually put in writing a quid pro quo contract.

If he wanted that, one of his people would have had lunch with one of her people.

Only one candidate has exploited the politics of Russia & it's not Hillary. Only one called on them to give him more dirt on his opponent.

Yeh, Bill has a lotta nerve getting those people to contribute to charity. They could have laundered it thru international corporate entities & used it to fund right wing super pacs for some real influence.

That was the stupidest thing I have read today. The media in other countries don't sugar coat the Clinton's corruption. You have crazies on the left who are triggered by anything that doesn't come from CNN or any other lieberal media outlet. And to make things worse you have have stupid trolls on cable television shows vying for whats left of the airheads on the left, who claim to be comedians but are simply dumbassed extremists with a smiley face who think Hillary's bull shit is funny.

Sites like CNN or any other ALT LEFT cable TV propaganda outlets are full of Hillary's lies - open border, globalist, socialist country high tax rates horse shit nonsense. All others are likely the truth!

RT is literally a Russian government propaganda instrument. It was founding by the Putin government. Former employees, hell former KGB agents, call it an instrument of manipulation and misinformation purely to assert control over the Russian people by Putin. It deserves no faith at all.
