Right now, they've crafted the dominant narrative -- and, unless they (and I mean Comey and the FBI) clarify it TODAY, that narrative will have the whole weekend to marinate in the public's consciousness. A clarification that comes Monday or later may be too late -- remember Al Gore "claiming he invented the Internet?"

state never had an archival tool and backups didn't last very long. So if they found a horde of state dept emails, they might have some new ones (to fbi).

Fri Oct 28, 2016, 03:21 PM

three were of interest. but not from hrc. not from her server. not with held from disclosure.

they may have found a lot more email, but three were new and interesting enough to push the big red button.

that doesn't mean there is anything there. in fact, comey said as much.

The far greater danger was the person who asked publicly that her emails be hijacked by a foreign government. Wonder who that was?

and if they contain sensitive information...

I am going to guess that these were either fabricated or purloined and then planted so the FBI could discover them and the GOP could have a Emailgasm over it.

The Russian hackers strike again. Or Trump supporters. If it was done well, it would be the Russians... done poorly and you have people that say things (in email) like "no time to be week kneed" (and, yes, spelled just like that.

Three (3) emails
Not on Hillary Clinton's server
On "another device"
Not withheld or destroyed
Found in the course of another (Weiner?) investigation
No indication of who sent or received them
FBI not sure if they're even relevant to anything

But it's a BOMBSHELL!

This will go down as one of MSM's most damning examples of incompetence and laziness.

3) Not from her investigation

Some irony for Clinton: Anthony Weiner a *great* example of why men who can't control themselves on Twitter shouldn't be allowed near power.

Picturing Beavis and Butthead, "They said she has a wiener!"

Of course, I barely restrained myself from saying they'd dangled the "Weiner".
Oops. So much for restraint.

I'll be genuinely shocked if there's anything significant here. That being said, where is this reference to it only being three emails coming from?
