2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: The FBI just cost me $5 and a pizza. [View all]Waiting For Everyman
(9,385 posts)I started paying attention to this at roughly the same time you did, and for the same reasons. So this post is almost like reading my own thought progression, and your posts along the way have been so helpful.
A number of DUers have been hugely informative and spot-on through this whole email-foundation issue.
The alert-stalking that all of you have experienced is despicable and absurd. Those responsible for it should know that hiding from reality only works for a short time, there comes a day when the truth is going to be known. I'm reminded of an R.E.M. lyric from the song "Belong", "these barricades can only hold for so long".
All of us choosing to face this are acting responsibly on the right side of history, and anything we can do to prevent the political disaster we are facing, will be vindicated by events in the near future.
I remain shocked by HRC's behavior, and we know that more official reports on this will be forthcoming. I am un-cynical enough to expect that major charges will be brought because it is obvious that serious law breaking has occurred. If that does not happen, there is no doubt in my mind that if elected, a swift impeachment will substitute for court justice denied.
I do not believe this will be swept under the rug. That definitely will NOT happen. That, I would bet much more than a pizza on. The public is sick of this type of shit.
