Yep. I think Clinton is likely to be elected in spite of her carelessness, not as a result of it.

(bolding mine)Seeing as how she hasn’t been convicted of a felony, I would have to assume that you are either an idiot or a liar(there was a third possibility-mistaken-but that was taken off the board when you were previously informed that she hadn’t been convicted and you ignored it). Could you please tell us which one you are, so that we may properly respond with either sympathy or contempt?

Good advice; why don’t you take it? The headline is a lie, because the article only names former agents, and gives no indication that they know anything more about the investigation than the general public.

Guess what, the FBI, like the military, is full of right wingers, and some of them are bound to be fringe right wingers who hate Hillary with a passion, because (like you) they believe what they read and hear on Rupert Murdoch-owned media, like Fox News and the New York Post. I’ll assume that while they were actually in the FBI or military, they carried out their duties with professionalism. And I’ll assume that now that they are retired, they feel free to vent their spleen without bothering to check their facts.

So it’s not surprising that Trump can find retired flag officers who hate Hillary, or retired FBI agents who hate Hillary. What’s surprising, at least to me, is that so many people swallow this crap without making any attempt to verify it.

Yeah. – Remember when you were six? You and your brother snuck into an empty building through a basement window. You were gonna play doctor. He showed you his, but when it got to be your turn you chickened and ran. Remember that?

Why is no one calling for the prosecution of the people who actually sent classified email to an unsecured email address? If they didn’t do anything worth prosecuting, then surely Hillary didn’t either.

I think your brain needs to be recalled like a Samsung Note 7.

You know what happens when **retired** and **former** FBI agents are revolting?

They will either stink on ice, stink in the old house or send a stern letter.

That is it.

Although I now know who were the ones the demented Tom DeLay was talking to when he breathlessly announced that the FBI would love to indict Hillary before the actual decision to not recommend an indictment came out. Forgetting that wanting to do something is not the same as finding actual evidence for what the authoritarians wanted. The writer of that article only could manage to get **one** _possibly_ involved current FBI agent to report some misgivings. A big nothing-burger of an article.

The same pea-brains who wail about Benghazi, Benghazi, Benghazi and ignore the 13 embassy attacks (resulting in over 60 fatalities) that took place during the Bush years. These useless cunts will politicize any tragedy.

Sane people haven’t forgiven the assholes who gave us Bush/Cheney. Foisting Trump on this nation would put them beyond redemption.

Maybe Trump will become a felon, if there’s a parade of women whose pussies he’s grabbed start coming forward, a la Cosby?

[Anderson Cooper told Trump ‘That is sexual assault.’ The Justice Department agrees.](https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/10/09/anderson-cooper-told-trump-that-is-sexual-assault-the-justice-department-agrees/?hpid=hp_rhp-top-table-main_wb-justicedept-544am%3Ahomepage%2Fstory)

Cooper:

Trump: ~No.

IANAL, but is non-consensual pussy grabbing a felony, or misdemeanor?

In other news, Bill Cosby, Brock Turner, and others endorse Trump.

You’ve offered blather and talking points, not facts. If you want to discuss, then refute the various points I and others made.

The repugnant indignation of all of the Republicans dropping their support for Trump is also strong.

And Samsung has announced they are suspending production of the Note 7 because the replacement phones are catching fire, too. 😃

Meanwhile, how exactly, are the quoted FBI agents, who all seem to be retired, going to express their ‘revolt’, exactly? Tear up their pension checks?
