July 06, 2016, 03:50 pm Reid: ‘Time to move on' from Clinton email scandal

By Jordain Carney

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) on Wednesday slammed Republicans for focusing their fire on the FBI for not recommending charges against Hillary Clinton.

"It's over. It's time to move on," Reid said. "Republican attempts to continue their political hit job are just that, they're political."

Reid's remarks are the first time he's weighed in on the Clinton email scandal since FBI Director James Comey said Tuesday morning that he would recommend no charges for Clinton's use of a private email server while serving as secretary of State.

Republicans are showing no signs of dropping the subject. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) called on the FBI to release it's 3.5-hour interview with Clinton from Saturday.

Reid said GOP attempts to dig into the FBI investigation were "wastefulness,” and tied their strategy to their presumptive presidential nominee, Donald Trump.

"Republicans are in such desperate shape because of Trump they would seize upon anything," he told reporters.

I agree with Dingy Harry, drop the email security issue.

Move straight to the Espionage, Bribery, Treason and RICO charges.

Hey Harry, ever hear of that truism of “wish in one hand and s*** in the other, see which fills first!” Lots of luck with your move on wish!

Sure, just like everyone moved on from the idea of gun control after the 2nd amendment was enacted.

this would be huge.
Did the FBI ask the same questions that the media was asking ?
If so, did she answer the same way?
If so, Comey's explanation is an admittance that Hillary lied to the FBI.
Remember Scooter Libby was found guilty of making false statements to the FBI (Not for outing Plame )

I also want to see the transcript from the FBI and granny's Holiday, 3 1/2 hr. chat...

How many times the five attorneys with her told her not to answer or respond...

will be very interesting reading material, for us to help decide if she is the smartest woman in the world...lol

Erm...the problem is that the report exposed that this is ANYTHING BUT a hit job. It is brazenly letting a criminal go. How you get to the conclusion there was no “intent” when you, “accidentally”, set up your own email server is inexplicable.

I’ve seen FB posts from people on the left & right all saying this is a disgrace. The elites think they can just keep playing politics and say “move on, nothing to see” - except nobody is buying it. The fact that the DNC think this “clears the way” is ludicrous. They’re basically saying it’s ok to be a criminal in the DNC and run for president - they’re FINE with it. I think this is a huge miscalculation.

The FBI should look into how Stinky Reid made his money.

At least 50% of the population, most of the media, 99% of the democrats, and all of the dead.

OK, Mr. Reid, let’s concentrate now on all the corruption and crookery that surrounds the Clinton foundation.

We will fight them on the beaches, we will fight them on the landing grounds,we will fight them in the courts, we will fight them at the voting places, we will NEVER surrender. Vote Trump and indict Hillary, Obama, Slick Willy and the entire Obama administration for that matter. Am I being too kind? Didn’t mean to be.
