FBI Director Comey speaking now!

[MoonRiver]

Sounds like Hillary is getting a complete exoneration!

[Chichiri]

1. Please update for those of us at work! Nt

[MoonRiver]

3. Will do!

[DCBob]

2. Key statement so far: NOT INTENTIONALLY DELETED.

[MoonRiver]

4. Offense is that Clintons were "careless."

Not great, but certainly not the worst outcome.

[underpants]

7. Thanks for the updates

As I posted elsewhere - sounds like they have nothing and he's just providing fodder for news airtime.

[ChisolmTrailDem]

10. Gee, I hope she's not "careless" as president. nt

[ChisolmTrailDem]

38. Thank goodness. nt

[SummerSnow]

5. No evidence any Clinton emails were intentionally deleted.-Fib director.

Also said her team were extremely careless.

[MoonRiver]

6. STATE DEPT. negligent. NO evidence of hacking. eom

[smorkingapple]

8. "Extremely careless" will be the headline though if she walks

And R's will use that line until the cows come home. I wonder if they can use Comey himself in ads or is that illegal?

[KeepItReal]

9. 110 classified emails. A handful were Top Secret.

They found emails she didn't hand over to State Department.

No intent found, but "extremely careless" handling of top secret information.

[MineralMan]

11. "No reasonable prosecutor would bring charges..." Comey

That's it. No recommendation of charges. It's over.

[MineralMan]

19. "No charges are appropriate in this case..." Comey

Done and done.

[MoonRiver]

12. Recommendations: NO REASONABLE PROSECUTOR WOULD CHARGE CLINTON!

[lapucelle]

13. Recommendation

NO CRIMINAL CHARGES!!!!!!

[femmocrat]

14. He is saying that they were extremely careless, though.

There is plenty there for the repugs to jump all over. She may or may not have been hacked... not sure, but possible her correspondents were.

"No reasonable prosecutor" would bring a criminal case, in his judgment.

[Blue_Adept]

36. yeah, but they will go after her and ANYONE for any little thing

It's not her. It's anyone not-Republican. Obama's administration has been clean as a whistle compared to others for the last few decades and look at every little thing they keep throwing at him.

It's not the person, it's that they're not "one of us" when it comes to why Republicans do this.

[femmocrat]

40. Agree.

Someone on MSNBC pointing out that Comey was appointed by bush and the issue has been politicized. I look to the repugs to attack her on her "judgment" though.
They will jump on anything that they can use against her.

[Blue_Adept]

41. What I find more deplorable are what some on "our" side does with this

Just seeing some of Shaun King's tweets has me rolling my eyes. These are not people that I want to stand with.

[Ace Rothstein]

15. He was kind of all over the place.

One minute I thought he was going to say they were recommending indictment, the next I thought they wouldn't.

[Johnny2X2X]

16. No prosecution!

Totally cleared.

[MoonRiver]

20. Bottom line...

[DCBob]

17. No criminal charges.

[MoonRiver]

21. END OF STORY. eom

[DCBob]

24. Yep. Finally.

[Johnny2X2X]

18. No charges are appropriate.

Case closed.

[MyNameGoesHere]

22. The indictment fairy just croaked.

[uponit7771]

23. Splodey heads are slpoding !!!!!

[smorkingapple]

25. LOL

[La Lioness Priyanka]

27. Yup

[mcar]

26. That's that

The Rs will continue to try to make hay out of this because that's what they do. But it's done and over.

[Sheepshank]

37. yup...committee formal facts and findings hasn't stopped Trump from raising Benghazi!!

Won't stop Trump on this front either.

He and his rabid followers are bottom dwelling, mush brained, ignoramuses with a penchant for squelchy facts and a camaraderie of flat headed fools. These are ignorant of the truth and shying away from any truth that doesn't feed their sense of manufactured outrage.

[mcar]

39. Tell us how you really feel, Sheepshank!

[nolabear]

28. There's a lot for Trump to seize on and pretend he knows something about.

I'm glad they did this now so the howling mob can wear itself out and people can get out their fine toothed combs. I hope it doesn't get twisted up into "she's incompetent" but I'm sure it will.

[Kingofalldems]

29. Trump fans are Blue! today:

Hahahaha!

[CincyDem]

30. And the twinkly light in the sky known as "The E-mail Fairy" has finally twinkled out. n/t

[nolabear]

31. By the way the FBI director was awesome in that delivery. It was a great statement.

Careful, explanatory, and included all the fine points. Nicely done.

[DawgHouse]

34. He did a great job of explaining the investigation.

[SummerSnow]

32. The GOP heads exploding in 5...4...3...2...1

[mainstreetonce]

33. Good news. No charges

Bad news. She did send Emails that were classified at the time.

[Else You Are Mad]

35. I am glad that they aren't going to indict Hillary.

But what Comey said will be used by the GOP to blast Hillary by calling her too careless to be president.

Hillary and the rest of the Democrats need to get ahead of this before it spins out of control.
