"FBI Director Comey speaks to the press 11a ET. Obama/HRC campaign together 2:30p ET. Pretty much says it all."

So, will today be the day we can put this all behind us?

I can’t wait for the Trumpster and other right-winger’s faces when the FBI announces that there is no evidence that would justify an indictment. The Trumpster will come up again with nonsense like “system rigged!”

There's really no positive outcome for Hillary here. If she's indicted, the #NeverHillary crowd will go "SEE! Hillary is CORRUPT!!!". If she's not indicted, the #NeverHillary crowd will go "SEE!!! Hillary RIGGED THE SYSTEM!!!"

Most sane people will realize that the second statement is crazy however. Especially considering the head of the FBI is a Republican.

The Trumpster doesn’t care. He insults GOPers and Dems alike.

"Completing its investigation and referring to a Department of Justice for a prosecutorial decision."

Oh, crap.

This is not sounding good for Hillary. 110 emails in 52 email chains contained classified information at the time. 8 top secret 36 secret 8 confidential.

It sounds like they compiled evidence, but not leaning one way or the other, letting DoJ decide.

This isn't good when the fbi director  says you were "extremely careless".

By her lawyers in deleting things. That didn't refer to Clinton herself.

Of course, this press conference was just gray enough to make this issue not go away.

So basically what we knew all along, except for right-wingers and a few BoBers praying for a miracle.  

Clinton shouldn't have used a personal email server, but no intentional misconduct, and she won't be indicted/prosecuted.

Comey: "We cannot find a case that would support bringing criminal charges" in Clinton email case.
