Wow. That video was brutal. Her lies were exposed , she violated the official Records Act

Powell did not do what she did, he turned over his records and so much more. Damn.

The State Department as a whole started this investigation, but stopped it at the FBI's request.

This is the State Department's inspector general's report which actually got started before the FBI investigation began. They sent a referral to the FBI that started the FBI's investigation. They were allowed to proceed woith this review, but only to cover certain areas so they wouldn't step on what the FBI is doing. So there's nothing in this report about classified emails, I think that would be in the FBI report.

But it looks like this wasn't supposed to be released yet, it was leaked by someone which explains why it was released on a Wednesday instead of buried in a Friday news dump and I think it explains some of Toner's unprepared responses.

There were more comprehensive directives in place during Clinton's tenure so her failures

to preserve Federal documents are more serious than any former SOS's. She happily ignored those directives, and if you read the report you will see a couple of her lies she has bandied about this situation exposed.

She and her top aides would not cooperate with the State Department review. A department that she was the head of.

Written by a friend and posted with her permission for discussion here in the Bernie Sanders group


So They Don't Know How to 'Handle' Us Bernie Bros and Held A Meeting To Discuss It??
To the Democratic Party's Corporate Controlled Tools, We The People are NOT important other than to 'get in line' and do as expected, hold your nose if you must, BUT DAMMIT VOTE FOR THEIR CHOICE FOR YOU.

That choice is Hillary Clinton and you better get in line and do what they tell you to do or else!

Something they didn't anticipate is happening this time, things aren't working out as planned.

So they HELD A CLOSED DOOR MEETING to try to figure out HOW TO 'HANDLE' you, me and Sen. Sanders!

Are they for REAL? Do they really not GET IT YET?

Here, read it for yourselves:


http://thehill.com/homenews/senate/280445-how-senate-democrats-are-trying-to-deal-with-sanders


Senate Democrats discussed how to handle Bernie Sanders and his supporters at a private caucus meeting on Tuesday.

The lawmakers met in a closed-door session days after Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) was shouted down at the Nevada Democratic convention, an incident that shook Democrats and raised fears about a chaotic fight at the party’s upcoming national convention that might cost the party the White House.



See, you need to be HANDLED by THEM??? Adults, doctors, lawyers, teachers, parents, nurses, Union Workers, Veterans, YOU ALL ARE NOTHING to these privileged, sold out hacks we once thought were on our side.

All you are are something that NEEDS TO BE HANDLED so that they can FORCE you all to vote for one of the worst candidates ever to be presented to us?

She's under a Criminal Investigation by the FBI and the DOJ, she's LOSING to Trump, Bernie just DEFEATED her in yet another state, tied in one she won overwhelmingly in 2008 and WE ARE THE ONES who need to be HANDLED?

Are they insane, is there something in their water? Who ARE these people?

Read the whole thing, but be prepared to be angry that the party most of us supported for so long has so BETRAYED us for a candidate who may end up being indicted, insulting our intelligence, slamming one of the most decent politicians we are ever likely to see in our lifetimes.

I need no 'handling' by sold out corporate tools.

Remember Joe Liebermann? Read that article and then think of Lieberman and how they 'handled' that traitor.

I think our entire Party has gone insane. The only sane person I see in this race is Bernie Sanders and his millions of Supporters.



They are circling the wagons, the Wall St funded servants of the Oligarchs. And they are flummoxed that we the people simply won't get in line behind their neocon, war-mongering, corrupt candidate who obviously their REAL bosses have told them is who they need to support.

And the more they behave this way, the more they PROVE how much we need Bernie Sanders.

Are they NUTS? Have they really been in DC so long they forgot that our votes do NOT belong to them?



We to them are NOT PEOPLE, millions of us to them are simply an UNRULY bunch of pests who are getting in the way of their PLANS. Not for US but for HER.

I have a message for them. Bernie Sanders is NOT their problem.

WE THE PEOPLE are their problem

We will never, ever support their horrific choice for this election, NEVER.

Bernie can BEG, PLEAD if he wants, it will have ZERO effect on his supporters because it isn't about HIM, it's about THEM.

Damn, I don't think I've ever been this angry not even when we were trying to get rid of Bush. At least HE did not betray us, we expected nothing of him.

THEY have betrayed Democrats and they should be ashamed of themselves.


This, for the most part captures how I feel at this time. For the first time in my life I don't feel that the Democratic party, the party of my Father has any concerns about me.


Bernie isn't their problem nor are his supporters their problem . I think we just want and deserve more than they are willing to give us. They need to work on what they need to give the people, as Democrats.

Is POS David 'Anita Hill is a little bit nutty and a little bit slutty' Brock a DUer?

Elizabeth Warren, former republican believes in Democratic principles and votes and speaks accordingly. Brock is a low life piece of shit who will never change into a democrat or even a decent human being. He was a rat fucker, he is a rat fucker and will go to his grave a rat fucker. I have no problem with republicans, I know some fine, honest republicans. I do however have problems with trolls who pretend to be DUers or DUers who troll other sites and pretend to be what they are not.

Then only democrats should vote for democrats in the GE if Hill wins.

I'm good with that since I'm not a registered dem.

Elizabeth Warren: "I’m still cheering Bernie on"

Progressive icon Elizabeth Warren still isn’t ready to endorse a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination. But she says she’s cheering on Bernie Sanders.

The Massachusetts Democrat’s comment came Thursday in response to a question about whether Sanders, a democratic socialist, should drop out of the race against front-runner Hillary Clinton.

‘‘He’s out there. He fights from the heart. This is who Bernie is,’’ Warren said, according to a video of the news conference. ‘‘He has put the right issues on the table both for the Democratic Party and for the country in general so I’m still cheering Bernie on.’’
