One for you and I, and one for the elite.
I held a clearance for 20 years, during which time I was in-briefed multiple times, received annual security refresher training, and de-briefed when I no longer required access to particular material. The regulations regarding the handling, processing, classification and storage of such material was made crystal clear on every occasion.
I have no doubt that had I done the same as Hillary Clinton, a "reasonable prosecutor" (to use the FBI's theoretical situation) would be easily found to go after me.
Some animals are more equal than others.
Because what could be harder to believe than that Hillary Clinton is basically an honest person trying to do her job?
What's more, the FBI director said that any reasonable person should have realized the sensitivity of information they were transmitting regardless of its markings.
I find it really bizarre how people go out of their way to tune out any information that paints Clinton/Trump/Sanders in a bad light (depending on your temperament).
I'm not saying Clinton should be tarred and feathered (or even sent to jail), but she has hardly been exonerated of any wrongdoing. Why do people find that so difficult to admit?
Pure evil but you'll believe what you want.
her husband sold us to the banks when he was president.
they have made hundreds of millions off those banks in intervening years.
That Should be enough, has everyone forgotten 2008 already? it appears so.
millions of people lost money and jobs because of the 2008 financial crisis, and deregulation of the things that lead to the crisis falls squarely in their laps.
they don't even pretend to be against the banks, even though just about everyone in America feels like those banks not only stole from them, but got away Scott free, and they got giant bonuses for doing so.
somehow that's not enough, and lucky us, they're so misguided and fraught with iniquitous thoughts, they keep getting caught out on things, and it not only has no influence on her candidacy but people seem to rally to her to protect her from her own truths.
we seem to have easily forgotten (thanks to trump) that there is little to no difference between the parties (only a topic that comes up after someone is elected and they turn out to be just like the previous one), they are wholly owned subsidiaries of the United corporations of America.
nobody wants to hear this, and it's bound to knock me below 50 karma again, but how is it that, I hear this again and again after someone is elected but then election time comes around and it's back to a clean slate and let's just keep this moving forward.
it's like they started the election news cycle even earlier to keep us enthralled and remove our ability to think rationally by bombarding us with irrelevant crap, when we know the real issues, we talk about them for years.
There seems to be a cabal of down-voters to take politically undesirable stories off the HN homepage. For instance, a while ago there was a story called 'The Myth of the Lone Wolf Terrorist.' I read it, then when I clicked back to HN to look at the comments, there was no sign of it.
Too big to jail, I guess. Ignorance is an excuse when you have a president running interference for you to undermine democracy, even if you knowingly and intentionally weakened and exposed the whole country and then lied about it and played it off.
But let's make a crooked, incompetent, and dangerous person our leader.
It's a two party system; you have to vote for one of the green tentacled monsters.
Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos!
