If you got a problem with the FBI clearing Hillary, you got a problem.

If anyone here is less than happy that the FBI cleared Hillary and put this fake "scandal" behind us once and for all, you really should go vote GOP; no, better, stay out of the electorate. She was not "put above the rules." She played by them, and the referee reviewed the play, and it was fine.

The end. Take ur GOP talking points elsewhere if u got a problem, or think this is an example of some "evil" establishment.

There was, however, nothing fake about the investigation.

the time and money used for it could've gone to solving REAL problems in this country, like cough cough cheaper higher ed, health care, etc.

The investigation was the result of a referral from two Inspectors General -- one from State and one from Intel. There was enough to make serious folks concerned.

Not a fake investigation. One of the most telling things that I found watching the hearing that isn't getting much airplay was how many other government actors were brought up who did just as much to put confidential information at risk and yet were not being investigated because there was no referral. I believe after watching Comey that the investigation was done seriously and honestly. The fact that this was under investigation at all and the fact that Congressional panels are being drawn out even at this point was and is all politically motivated.
