Link (CNN).
Link (New York Times).

Just breaking this morning. Emails were obtained through FOIA, 44 of which were withheld from the FBI. Is that obstruction of justice I smell?

And again, the two highlighted emails really dont show anything. Hillary is a stronger candidate than people thought. Assange doesnt have anything, Judicial Watch cant find anything and Trumps an idiot. I think Hillary might be president come January.

So this is what you mean:

Assange has nothing to do with this. You should try reading the articles.

There should be a House hearing about this:

In one instance, top Clinton Foundation official Doug Band lobbied Clinton aides for a job for someone else in the State Department. In the email, Band tells Hillary Clinton's former aides at the department -- Cheryl Mills and Huma Abedin -- that it is "important to take care of (redacted)." Band is reassured by Abedin that "Personnel has been sending him options."

I took it as a joke, frankly, which is what most of the Clinton accusations amount to.

Of course I am, but I'd like to see Hillary put Trey Gowdy in his place, again.

No one cares. 63% of people are tired of hearing about the damn emails.

Most people are not okay with the Republican presidential candidate soliciting the murder of his opponent. Of course, folks like the OP hate Hillary so much that they brush it off as a joke or probably agree. OP, do you agree with Trump's comments or think they were a joke? That's a question this board should know.

I was unaware that pay-for-play politics was a normal part of every election.

Uh, corruption is usually a higher priority than a sentence intentionally misinterpreted by maniacs like yourself who are terrified of Hillary losing.

I think Trumps repeated idiotic and dangerous comments should disqualify him from the race. He's a proven threat to America.

I think Clinton's abusive relationship with the truth should disqualify her from the race.

Trump obviously is the worse choice, but just because I refuse to vote for Clinton does not mean that I'm a Trumpster.

Maniac? No, you are projecting. I've had a couple of your posts removed for being quite threatening toward or abusive toward me.

Again, answer the question? Do you believe that Second Amendment people should take care of Hillary Clinton if she becomes President?

The headlines were:

CNN: Newly released Clinton emails shed light on relationship between State Dept. and Clinton Foundation

NYT: Emails Renew Questions About Clinton Foundation and State Dept. Overlap

You're putting in your own spin and passing it off as CNN's headline.

I think this OP is clearly a panic response to Trump's comments yesterday. Republicans need to spin anything to bury that disaster.

Abedine, through her position at Foundation and Foundation, steered donors to Secretary Clinton (Wall Street Journal).

If all further revelations are of this caliber, Clinton will be president.

Anyone can use FOIA. They don't have to be journalists. They pulled out evidence and presented it to the media to digest.

If all further revelations are of this caliber, Clinton will be president.
I was unaware that pay-for-play politics was a normal part of every election.

You are either painfully naive or mindbogglingly obtuse.
Your spooked.

That pretty much is the content of the two reports. I fail to see how headlines matter here. Care to discuss the story itself?

Maniac? No, you are projecting. I've had a couple of your posts removed for being quite threatening toward or abusive toward me.

Again, answer the question? Do you believe that Second Amendment people should take care of Hillary Clinton if she becomes President?
Yeah, the Second Amendment folks and the NRA will dump millions into the midterms, hold or take back the Senate, and prevent her from nominating any judges. They'll take care of her just like Trump said when he referenced the midterms in that sentence.

Quit deflecting from this very serious report.

Is there any indication that the person being "taken care of" was a donor and not just someone who was very helpful or competent?

If I got a high-up job in the state department, I would probably make sure that all my friends who were interested in foreign policy had career options, and that a select group of people who I personally knew to be very competent or who had done a lot of good work with me in the past were given opportunities or aggressively recruited.  After all, that's how Clinton herself got the job.

It's really sad, tbh. And yet the supporters of those two candidates will defend them no matter how far they go.

The difference, of course, is that Trump really hasn't done anything wrong or immoral. But we already knew about the millennials' morality issues.

Its the same article with a different headline(which you changed). Theres nothing wrong with using your connections as Secretary of state, especially in a country like Lebanon.

It's not a serious report, it's more grasping at straws from Judicial Watch. Second, Trump never mentioned a midterm election or any election at all, you are putting words in his mouth that he never said. He stated that if she was able to nominate judges that there was nothing anyone could do, except the Second Amendment people.

Violence is not okay, but some people need a visit at home from the Secret Service to know that. You might not like Clinton, but she doesn't deserve to be murdered.
