Republicans can argue until their last breath that Trump objectors are sore losers, but isnt more at stake than mere politics? This phrase has been rendered quaint by such serious issues as Russian hackers apparently trying to tilt the election toward Donald Trump; the FBIs possibly politically motivated practices; Trumps initial resistance to the conclusions of the U.S. intelligence community; Trumps refusal to release tax records, which might mollify concerns about his relationship with Russia.
These arent partisan issues, or shouldnt be, as evidenced by the Justice Department inspector generals decision to investigate how FBI Director James B. Comey handled the probe of Hillary Clintons email and private server. The focus will be on Comeys statement in July that Clinton and her colleagues were extremely careless with classified information but that he wasnt recommending criminal charges as well as his announcement to Congress just a week and a half before Election Day that, because of new information, he was reopening the investigation.
This fresh look pertained to new emails found on the laptop of Carlos Danger, a.k.a. Anthony Weiner (but, really, why the name change?), estranged husband of top Clinton adviser Huma Abedin. The emails subsequently were found to be inconsequential, but if there were any fence-sitters left at that point, at least many of them probably toppled into Trumps camp, from sheer exhaustion if not outright disgust.

Attempting to “mollify” liberals is no part of Trump’s agenda, and I am glad of it.
A moment of reflection for FakeNews!
Kathleen did a show on CNN with client number 9, could not get a word in edgewise. I assume client number 9 expected more then a talking head.
Well, no he didn't. He called them to release the information which it was assumed that they had already hacked from her frighteningly insecure server holding classified emails. The only protection of it was lack of bandwidth for every intel agency in the world to tap into it.
By the way, Compost, don't act so holy about last second releases of embarrassing information on political candidates: Washington Post, 3 November 2000, Bush Once Pleaded Guilty to DUI
Kathleen Parker V. Star Parker.
Compare and Contrast. Leave your papers on my desk.
“Never go full Rosie O’Donnell.”
Sure beats that “new tone” doesn’t it?
LOL, that’s hysterical!
Nope.
Russia didn’t tell her to keep a server in the basement. To use private email for sending VERY important emails and receiving them. Russia didn’t tell her to not campaign. Didn’t tell her to have a rapist husband.
They didn’t tell dems to pick someone who is utterly unlikable an unstable. Who aided in blowing up the middle east.
I can go on forever.
Attn: Democrats. Believe what you want. Discuss it among yourselves... I’m done listening, The joy at your shock and horror of losing has worn off already. The joy of winning has not. Commiserate to your hearts content.
The rest of us will start running the USA with some common sense.
The Compost’s token conservative peddling untruths, strawmen and othe ‘rat talking papers.
If your paper prints her, call them and cancel your subscription. Don’t be a retard. Choose the red pill.
The WashingFake Post has gone from hugely liberal, to full-on barking moonbat. How they continue to operate, baffles me.
WaPoop unfit for use to line birdcages. Spreading lies and disinformation for the CIA for decades.
Russia did not Hack the election.
The US lamestream media is the one that tried to influence the election and it wasn’t in favor of DJT.
Obama made comments that could be interpreted to encourage illegals to vote.
There are no ties to Russia, if there was, it would have been brayed far and wide before the election.
Russia did not Hack the election. Did Russia make Hillary plot dirty tricks and spread lies and cheat Bernie Sanders?
I hope every one of the yellow journalists is out of a job soon.
Subsidized propaganda outfit.
It’s just advancing the latest “stop Trump” Uniparty ploy.
They’ll have a few black, women and homosexual politicians and pundits openly question if the election should stand. You can’t call them out without being a racist, misogynist homophobe.
Next the “conservatives” like McCain and McConnell will chime in saying it’s a serious question. Then the GOPe “moderates” like Graham will openly call for changing the result.
We are teetering on the edge of a banana republic coup attempt. Those who’ve rigged the system are willing to risk our skins to keep Trump pulling back the curtain on the scam.
They try it, and I go to war.
Not joking.
The focus will be on Comeys statement in July that Clinton and her colleagues were extremely careless with classified information but that he wasnt recommending criminal charges
You are an averting, intellectually dishonest, pedantic coddled and a peddler of half truths and outright lies.
Comey totally and completely laid out a case for prosecuting Hillary.
Oddly, he then claimed:
“ To be clear, this is not to suggest that in similar circumstances, a person who engaged in this activity would face no consequences. To the contrary, those individuals are often subject to security or administrative sanctions. But that is not what we are deciding now. “
how many MILLIONS of votes went to Clinton because the MSM was totally in the tank for her instead of being fair and balanced towards both sides?,,, sorry but until the media goes 50/50 instead of 90/10 this crap about the Russians and Comey tilting the election is just that,, not even in the same universe as to which slanted the election more,, if there had been a fair press from the beginning Trump would have beaten Hillary by 10 million votes
What the heck happened to this biatch?
“Did we really elect Donald Trump?”
good grief, wapo.
Are we supposed to believe that the Russians were responsible for:
Hillary threatening the jobs of Pennsylvania coal miners.
Hillary illegally conducting State Department business on a private email server in her bathroom and lying about it repeatedly.
Hillary receiving new email passwords in clear text emails from Huma Abedin.
Hillary deleting 30,000 emails from her illegal private email server.
Hillary publicly collapsing at the 9/11 memorial service and being dragged and tossed into her van like a sack of potatoes.
Hillary exposing classified information to them, although they may well be benefiting even today from her having done so.
Huma giving Anthony Weiner access to content on her non-secure server.
Hillary calling half the voters deplorable and “irredeemable”.
Hillary making shady deals with foreign nations via the Clinton Foundation.
Hillary making a video hectoring labor unions for not putting Hillary 50 points ahead of Trump.
Hillary accusing Donald Trump of horrible things while defending her husband for doing far worse things.
Hillary botching the situations in Libya, Syria, and Iraq, precipitating the rise of ISIS to fill the power vacuum and creating a worldwide diaspora of Syrian “refugees”.
Hillary refusing REPEATED security upgrade requests for the Benghazi consulate, denying military assets to save them, and the blaming a fake video for the deaths she’s to blame for.
Hillary whipping out that stupid Russian reset button, although the Russians certainly took advantage of the foolish notions behind it.”
Podesta using “password” for his gmail password and then giving it up to phishing email a 14 year old could have sent.
Hillary failing to campaign in Wisconsin.
Hillary selling 20% of the U.S. uranium supply to the Russians for $10 million “donation” to the Clinton Family Foundation.
If so, those pesky Russians are WAY sneakier than anyone could have possibly imagined!
