14. I found that thread by googling the excerpt. It is full of Hillary haters

Nov 2017

who were gleefully pronouncing her guilty of felonies, because she had a handful of what were thought to have been classified emails on her private emails. (Containing those articles from European media that Blumenthal sent her.)

They were believing a certain DUer who was oh-so-confidently insisting that her "intent" didn't matter at all -- even though the law clearly makes intent the key factor, and the FBI, of course, decided a month later NOT to charge her with anything because there was no intent. When a new DUer posted the actual law, with the language about intent, she was informed that she only had 45 posts and that her opinion wasn't nearly as important as the Hlllary-hater who had ignored the law, but posted pages and pages of obfuscation that looked very important.

It's discouraging to see that DUers were still posting this Trump-assisting crap after Bernie had no mathematical chance to win the election. I wonder how many of the people in that thread have deserted for JPR or for parts unknown.

But as to your question -- yes, that is very curious. How would a DUer have heard that a Russian could have her emails way back in May 2016?
