Are you able to make a legal argument or logical argument that she did not commit a crime? Or are you just going to fall back on the “they didn’t prosecute her, so therefore she didn’t do anything wrong” defense?

I’m making the argument that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case, which I don’t feel I actually need to argue because that’s precisely what the FBI said. Basically what she did was stupid and inadvisable, but there wasn’t enough evidence that it was criminal to bring a case.

Republicans control all three branches of government and both houses of Congress. The thought that Hillary somehow still holds the United States in some sort of death grip of influence from beyond is baffling to me. If she committed a crime, prosecute it. She can’t simply fire the FBI director. Unless of course the whole Emailghazi thing was political theatre and then just let it drop after she loses the election.
