Quote:Department of Justice officials filed a motion in federal court late Wednesday seeking a 27-month delay in producing correspondence between former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s four top aides and officials with the Clinton Foundation and Teneo Holdings, a closely allied public relations firm that Bill Clinton helped launch.
If the court permits the delay, the public won’t be able to read the communications until October 2018, about 22 months into her prospective first term as President. The four senior Clinton aides involved were Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Michael Fuchs, Ambassador-At-Large Melanne Verveer, Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills, and Deputy Chief of Staff Huma Abedin.

If that fails to produce we are all out of luck and there will be no justice.

I have a bad feeling about this in general. The e-mail thing is complex and the mainstream (liberal) opinion seems to be "it's just a bunch of e-mails no big deal!" The left ridicules it as a right wing sticking point that is baseless. Unfortunately, I don't believe the American attention span is enough to look into this serious matter with any degree of objectivity.
The leaks should probably be made public asap. So at least some important pieces can filter into the public consciousness.
Hillary's arrogance and paranoia at shifting highly sensitive e-mails to a server in her own home with her own non secure "system" in place jives with her personality too.
In that book Crisis of Character it's mentioned several times how insanely paranoid and childish Hillary is. Her neuroticism and paranoia is even typical of borderline personality disorders.
It's frightening that America might elect a dangerously paranoid and spiteful individual into the whitehouse. This isn't a mere character flaw but possible insanity.

They've been itching to do that since he arrived, and I have no doubt that something of that magnitude would give them a green light. He needs to do it and stop dicking around.
Only Trump winning and/or an FBI revolt can stop this hag. If I were Assange, I'd give the FBI 2 more weeks tops before I leaked everything.. Based on the Lynch/bill meeting FBI recommendations have happened. FBI need to revolt now.

Not sure what to make of this. I feel like anxious and euphoric at the same time.

This takes time and man-hours. He is most likely waiting for indictment or giving the system the benefit of the doubt before he drops it. Timing is everything though. If he drops it now it gives the MSM time to do damage control. Maybe it's best to leak this closer to November? I imagine the email leak would put Trump ahead.

The media was sweeping the email scandal under the rug and here comes swinging dick Billy who basically broke the MSM media's liberal barrier to entry and removed much perception of some conservative agenda to make it more real.
I might have just missed something.

He undermined the validity of the investigation and the prosecution by doing that. There will be more calls for people to recuse themselves, but when that happens, momentum and knowledge transfer because an issue moving onto a new team of investigators.
I don't think he exposed the media as a TPTB instead of a liberal/conservative thing. If anything the last 50 big stories this year helped more with that, than what Bubba did.
His stunt might backfire, but Bubba is the king of, "Hey sweetheart, come over here and let me talk to ya." You know he told her something like, "Do what you can to fix Hillary's situation, or maybe even told her that she owes him." She isn't foolish enough to admit that on TV of course.
He gave Lynch her career and he knew she would be silly enough to come over.
That is getting played sir.
Quote:Hillary Clinton gave a "voluntary interview" to the FBI today regarding her email arrangements while she was secretary of state, her campaign says.
"Secretary Clinton gave a voluntary interview this morning about her email arrangements while she was Secretary," spokesman Nick Merrill said. "She is pleased to have had the opportunity to assist the Department of Justice in bringing this review to a conclusion. Out of respect for the investigative process, she will not comment further on her interview."
The interview occurred at FBI Headquarters in Washington, D.C., and lasted approximately three and a half hours, according to a Clinton aide.
The FBI is in the final stages of its email-related investigation, looking at how Clinton and her aides handled classified information when she was secretary of state.
The Justice Department's goal is to complete the investigation and make recommendations on whether charges should be filed before the two major party conventions take place toward the latter half of July, according to a source familiar with the investigation.
Officials want ample time to review Clinton's interview and compare it to everything they have discovered in the months-long investigations, according to the source.
Attorney General Loretta Lynch has said she will accept the recommendations of the career prosecutors and investigators regarding the case.
Questions were raised about whether Lynch would be impartial after it was revealed that she and former President Bill Clinton met privately during a chance encounter on the tarmac at Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix earlier this week.
"Certainly, my meeting with him raises questions and concerns," Lynch acknowledged on Friday. "It has now cast a shadow over how this case may be perceived, no matter how it's resolved. ... [But] it's important to make it clear that that meeting with President Clinton does not have a bearing on how this matter is going to be reviewed, resolved and accepted by me."
She added, however: "I certainly wouldn't do it again."
Both Lynch and Bill Clinton have insisted the meeting was completely "social," focusing on grandchildren, golf, travel, the Brexit vote, “and things like that," as Lynch put it.
Last year, it was revealed that Clinton had exclusively used her family's private email server for official communications during her tenure as secretary of state. The officials communications included thousands of emails that were later marked classified by the U.S. State Department.
