New James Comey letter: After reviewing new emails, “We have not changed our conclusions” that Clinton should not be prosecuted. pic.twitter.com/6WQzEfwzCq
What a blithering idiot. Created a major upheaval, caused major consternation and now having completed what they should have done in the first place, confirmed it really wasn’t an issue. Comey really should be fired by PBO on Nov 9. Should the democrats win back the seante, hold hearings and investigate the rot in the FBI. sheeeesssssh.
JUST IN: NEW ltr to Congress from FBI says "we have not changed our conclusion that we expressed in July with respect to Secretary Clinton": pic.twitter.com/nn4rmNcQZR
FBI Director James Comey told lawmakers Sunday the agency hasn’t changed its opinion that Hillary Clinton should not face criminal charges after a review of new emails
Comey had dropped a bombshell 11 days from the election when he informed Congress that the FBI had discovered emails in its separate investigation of Anthony Weiner, the estranged husband of top Clinton aide Huma Abedin, that could be connected to its investigation of whether Clinton mishandled classified information by using a private email server.
The news could help Clinton put to rest a controversy that has dogged her in the 2016 race’s closing days, helping Donald Trump narrow a polling gap nationally and in key battleground states.

Ryan is completely mental. 2 more days. Just 2 more days.

So we are suppose to care what a weak-knee coward like Paul Ryan think, Ryan who have no problem supporting a racists, sexual predator, women hating, lying, thin skin, candidate like Donald Trump. “F” Paul Ryan. That’s forget.
Yep – just in time to allow the GOP 2 more days of emails emails emails. GOP have never cared about facts – ffs – they nominated no facts Orange horror.
So Comey may have cost us the Senate and possibly the House for absolutely NOTHING! He should be fired. I am disgusted beyond belief. To throw this entire into chaos for NINE days, during ALL of early voting, only to say Nothing to see here. Should have made that determination before he EVER opened his mouth.
Oh,and by the way, Comey damn well better be on his knees on Tuesday praying that we win the Senate. If we are left without a Supreme Court justice, and other necessary appointments, for the next four years it will be on him.
Some key Senate races appear to be really tight. Was devastated in 2014, along with the rest of TODville, when Dems ceded control of the Senate to the deplorable GOP.
Crossing my fingers that Dems don’t blow it again — it’s so crucial to get Merrick Garland approved and TPP passed before the lame duck session of Congress ends this year.
And for those who thought Kasich wouldn’t be so bad, check this out. Suppressing the vote is common to ALL Republicans. What a despicable party it has become.

One silver lining in this FBI fiasco is revelation of how corrupt it is and needs a total clean-up and purging of RW saboteurs. And Clinton will go into election day vindicated a second time. Job One for Pres. Clinton will be cleaning out the rot that is the FBI. We all should be thinking about how we can create an alternative media environment that isn’t constantly manufacturing and hyping fake scandals.
Think Knoller picked up his cue from WaPo (didn’t read the article b/c of their paywall limit — only click for info not available anywhere else), but my guess is that this article refers to PBO’s podium slaps — don’t know about the “superstitious” part though…

Mike Turpen: Clinton is the Woman in the arena
By Mike Turpen, Tulsa World, Sunday, November 6, 2016: Hillary Clinton has lived her life in the arena. Public service is her life’s calling. She’s learned that it is not “the critic who counts” who “points out how the strong woman stumbles.” Aristotle admonished: “You can avoid criticism by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing.” We become the sum total of our life experiences. “The credit belongs to the woman who is actually in the arena.” …
Hillary Clinton is the personification of – The woman in the arena. The time is now. #ImWithHer

Yesterday, this young man was kicked out of a Trump rally. As he was leaving, people kicked at his wheelchair. Today, he met his President. pic.twitter.com/VI4g2tKANG
Couldn’t agree with you more, #Trumpaloons are cruel inhumans — detest DJT, GOP and MSM for giving these ignorant heartless creatures approval, signaling that this behavior is acceptable in public settings.
This is why Dems must vote and regain the Senate and the White House — having a GOP Senate empowered by the MSM and Trumpaloons means gridlock obstruction and no new SCOTUS justices for 4 more years — and the MSM will eat it up, better for their bottom line revenue.
Did you read the statement in @ZekeJMiller’s tweet?
At 12 years old, the boy is nearly a young man, and it’s something he wanted to do, to give voice to the disabled.
Thankfully, nothing worse happened to him — Trumpaloons consider disabled, non-WASPs and anyone who doesn’t agree with them (see last night’s event in Reno) as lower forms of life than animals.
Quote from fb friend Osy ~ “Select the right people in life and make your life better and sweeter. Because when the haters see you walking on water they will say its because you can’t swim. Even if you dance on water, your enemies will accuse you of raising dust. But it doesn’t really matter, dance like none is watching you. I hope your weekend has been pretty fun and may the week ahead be awesome for you and your loved ones.”

I am being a mean girl; I love that Michelle gets top billing over Bill. I hope that if HRC wins, he can comport himself as spouse and not as a shadow president. The old ways of doing things are ineffective and unwelcome in a 21st century presidency; especially one that follows the trail blazing Obama administration. You know that every media outlet will be looking to catch him in some kind of impropriety, and as far as I can see, he has learned nothing from the almost 20 years that he has not been in the seat of power. That incident when he held up PBO and AF1 because he was running his mouth, which said much about his lack of control and his need to be the center of attention, sent chills down my spine and reminded me of the major reason that I was against another Clinton in the White House. My respect and admiration grew for Hillary as I learned more about her away from his shadow and I expect great things for her if he does not allow his ego and weaknesses f**k it up for her and the rest of us.
I love David’s tweets because they are so reassuring. I will admit that I have had some dark days of anxiety over this election, but he and a few others who are really in the know have helped me to hold on.
It is a sad state of affairs that it takes millions of dollars and an army of smart, talented, hardworking, upright people from all walks of life, fighting non-stop for a year to defeat a corrupt party and the grossly unqualified, immoral, selfish, sociopath who is at the top of the festering heap. This whole election reads like a Medieval morality play.
Got here at 8AM. FINALLY got to vote at 2:30PM. 6.5 hrs at the polls-REFUSED to leave. My voice will NOT be silenced. Neither should yours✊🏾 pic.twitter.com/9W4Fpl2pJi
This is an utter failure of democracy under these GOP governors. WHY do people not understand this? WHY do they vote these idiots into office? I will never understand it. With PBO’s and Holder’s focus on down ballot and state races post presidency, I really hope we can somehow get folks educated. Like this horrible election season, people start to think this is the norm when in fact there is not reason for it other than the GOP desire to suppress the vote.
Sorry, I’ve been so behind in catching up, but haven’ts seen AMK in a bit. Is he ok? Also haven’t seen LP in a very long while, is all well? I could have missed something since I’m always so far behind on posts. Just miss both AMK & LP.
okay, on 3 difference occasions during this weekend, World Press just makes the post, on TOD, about my voting experience “disappear” … guess I am in the “long comment jail” for now.

Thanks Nerdy for the heads-up!! Will be tuned in 🙂
James Comey is an idiot.
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL yes he is.
What a blithering idiot. Created a major upheaval, caused major consternation and now having completed what they should have done in the first place, confirmed it really wasn’t an issue.

Can’t wait. He has been wonderful. I WIll miss his brand of campaigning. He has been one of a kind!

This latest communication is NO help to Sec Clinton – quite the opposite. Discussion point leading up to the election – as Comey and the GOP wanted
I so agree pf – this latest letter simply revives the discussion. Media love it – they can’t discuss policies cause stubby fingers doesn’t have any.
Thank you Queen of the twitter

Should NEVER have opened his mouth. Do other investigations get discussed in this manner? Rhetorical question, no answer needed
So Comey tried to “rig” the election but he FAILED big time. Not only is he an idiot he belongs in Dante’s 9th circle of hell.
Have I said how much I despise Republicans. They cheat, lie, steal and do everything that’s evil every time, all the time.
I will continue to work mt a** off to GOTV for HRC for the next two days.
work my a** off
Oh,and by the way, Comey damn well better be on his knees on Tuesday praying that we win the Senate. If we are left without a Supreme Court justice, and other necessary appointments, for the next four years it will be on him.
If dems lose the Senate, I do believe PBO will ask for Comey’s resignation

Sadly – all this one has done is allow the media to talk about emails emails and emails. The pundits are loving it.
Oh I have a feeling Mama and Papa Pope are coming for these seditionists, terrorists, and foreign agents AFTER we elect HRC as 45.

It’s amazing what you can do with those newfangled computers.
Totally agree with Fallows. As a paralegal, one of my duties were document review. A good staff and a good IT department could make this happen.

I keep thinking he’s going to be living in New York and Chelsea, her family and Huma, her other daughter (with her son) will be living at the WH.
I don’t think Bill Clinton would do anything to hurt Hillary; not now.
