There is too much division around Trump for him to get enough votes.

The trend in the polls is moving in Trump's favor, with some polls showing Trump even with Clinton, or outright ahead. CBS/NYT is a tie, Rasmussen is Trump with a clear lead, Economist/Yougov within a margin of error.

Of course, Clinton had a bad couple weeks, so that may a temporary thing, but it could also be part of a longer trend. I really think things will start to crystallize once the debates happen, because that will push people into their animalistic "us against them" mode.

...what matters is you thought they were real

This type of tactic has been used countless times by law enforcement to a successful prosecution. However, entrapment is not as clear-cut as you make it out to be. It's really up to the court and jury to decide if the defendant was entrapped. There is an "objective test" which basically asks if anyone in the same circumstances would have done the same thing. Most states however employ a "subjective test" to help determine if entrapment had actually occurred.

Legal or not, it's still very murky water, because the tools were not, in fact, real; and no one was harmed. I can't help but wonder if not for the involvement of the FBI, would this person have ever committed a crime? I can't help but wonder if the person even did commit a crime! Does thinking that you are committing a crime, actually mean that you are committing a crime? Doesn't that make it a...thought crime?

Me: I thought I was doing 75 mph in a 65 mph zone.
Officer: No, the radar says you were going 65, I just pulled you over as a friendly warning that your taillight is out and you need to replace it.
Me: Yes, but I thought I was going 75. So, am I guilty of speeding?

There's a lengthy article here that outlines the "aggressive policing" used to fill prisons, and much of the history in and out of the courtroom, including SCOTUS, surrounding such actions.

From what I gather, Hillary tried to get permission to use a secure mobile device to access her email but was denied. Condolezza Rice was able to use a BlackBerry but the NSA phased those out with no solution for Hillary. She was expected to read email on a laptop or desktop computer in a secure office, something rather difficult for someone who is frequently traveling.

According to several articles, Hillary spent a lot of effort to get a secure smart phone to use like Obama's BlackBerry. The NSA refused. Later they wanted her to use this beast. It was not a user friendly or very useable device. It was based on late 1990s and early 2000s technology, about 10 years out of date.

As I recall, the IT budget for the State Department was quite limited and they used antiquated equipment since the Republican House controlled the purse strings.

Here are a few quotes from the articles I linked to above:

"After the NSA turned down her request for a secure smartphone for email, and her staff determined that the existing State Department technology infrastructure was nonexistent for such tasks, Clinton ultimately decided to get down to work by installing her own fully functional email server and tying it into her own BlackBerry for email."

"Reid wrote that each time they asked the NSA what solution they had worked up to provide a mobile device to Obama, "we were politely told to shut up and color.""

"Clinton chose not to use a laptop or desktop computer that could have provided her access to email in her office, according to the summary."

"Mills also asked about waivers provided during the Bush administration to then-Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice for her staff to use BlackBerrys in their secure offices. But the NSA had phased out such waivers due to security concerns."

Basically there weren't any options but to use a laptop or desktop computer in her office for email, not a very good option for someone who is frequently outside of the office.

It looks like she was screwed no matter what she did if she wanted to access her email away from her office.

Trump supporters were previously Bush supporters, and Bush did the exact same damn thing:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

He even refused to turn over e-mails under subpoena: "The White House stated it might have lost five million emails"

At least 5 different investigations were hampered by his private e-mail account:

The Main Problem With Patented GM Food Is The Patent, Not The Fact That It's GM

Roundup Cancer

Genetically Monetized Food

And my own skepticism. Genetically modifying food on the molecular level is not the same as breeding. You will never see in nature where mechanical and chemical means are used to cross species like it's done in the lab.

So, those of us with concerns about GMO crops have legitimate skeptical and informed reasons for being so. And I realize that there are some great things about GMO crops..

So, comparing us to uninformed ignorant people who don't want to hear the actual facts is completely unwarranted.

That is what gets me in all of these cases. In almost every one the government really screwed the pooch. We were told by the Russians to be on the look out for the Boston bombers but we fucked that one up. The mastermind of the Paris attacks was featured as pig fucker of the month in Daesh's monthly magazine. The Orlando shooter was investigated by the FBI a few times and supposedly was reported by a gun shop owner for suspicious behavior attempting to buy ammo in bulk and body armor. So instead of the government doing their fucking job and actively investigating these people that really seem to need a closer look they instead seek to take away rights from everyone else.

CBS story

Clinton told her aid to remove classifications from the information and send them unsecured. Thereby letting her claim nothing was sent with classification markings.

That is not sloppy, that is not a mistake. She TOLD them to remove classification markings and send unsecured. I'm not sure how much more of a smoking gun of intention there could possibly exist. The only thing I think COULD be worse is sending it with the TOP SECRET on the top of the email, but thats about it.

I think the reason it matters is that Trump claims it's real. If it's fake and he's just a liar, then it's worthy of note in a Presidential candidate.

http://www.cbsnews.com/news/do...

Yes, yes there is and it has been used to great effect to wipe out succeeding "leaders" within the Daesh terrorist organization.

It's been so effective Daesh is turning against itself in a frenzied attempt to find out if there are spies among their ranks because their people keep dying so frequently.

Desertions are up, territory keeps getting lost, and terrorists keep getting killed, all thanks to the Drone Strike app. Available now for Apple and Android devices.

and even then, you'd pretty much have to get a smoking gun in this day and age, like catching her emailing her staffers with direct instructions to violate the law. Good luck finding anything like that.

Already did. http://www.cbsnews.com/news/state-department-releases-more-clinton-emails-several-marked-classified/

Why do people keep repeating this false talking point? Do you actually know why documents are classified and how they are supposed to be handled, or are you just parroting a line from a news source? Do you even know what a nonpaper is and why they are used?

Having talked to people who work in government with these types of documents, this instruction is certainly unusual. However it isn't per say mishandling of classified documents. It would depend on what the information was and who classified it, among other things. As an example, let me put together a hypothetical situation in which Clinton's request is perfectly reasonable:

Hypothetical: The State Department is considering the affects of legalizing marijuana across the nation, and is in discussions with other countries about how they would react. This is all done informally at this point as neither country wants to officially take a position. As such the State Department is having all the documents classified because it suggests a potential policy of the United States government.

Clinton wants to know the latest development for a briefing, but the secure fax systems is down. So she requests that her aide make it a "nonpaper" by stripping all of the country markings and information. This would be okay in terms of law as the document was originally classified by the State Department. This is even okay in theory, as the only reason the document is classified as it is associated with the State Department and suggests a policy direction; if you strip all that away it becomes one of countless other opinion pieces you can find on marijuana advocacy websites (and is indeed as non-authoritative as this posting by an AC on a website).

In this hypothetical situation, it is unusual for Clinton to request an aide to "turn into nonpaper w no identifying heading and send nonsecure," but it violates neither the spirit nor the letter of the law in regard to classified documents. It probably violated State Department policy, but that is no more wrong than a CEO of a small company saying "I know I said we only use Blackberries, but you WILL find a way to get my iPhone to work with our email."

Now I do think that Clinton has violated both the spirit and the letter of the law in terms of records management. I also strongly suspect she has mishandled classified documents. But unless you have more context (e.g. the document she requested to have turned into a nonpaper had originally been classified by another agency rather than the State Department, and it indeed had been sent unclassified without that agency's approval), that "smoking gun" you and everybody keeps pointing to is more of a damp squib.

I'll also note as an afterthought that even in that article you listed, "State Department said a review showed that the document in question was sent 'apparently by secure fax, after all,' and was never was sent to Clinton by email."

Actually, it was illegal at the time.

First, the Clinton campaign tried to excuse the server by conflating retroactively marking documents classified with retroactively classifying documents. Problem is markings are not what makes a document classified.

Currently, the Clinton campaign is trying to push an argument that she lacked intent, and thus can not be indicted. The problem is the relevant statute does not require intent. She can be indicted based on either 1) intent or 2) gross negligence. And the email saying "we got hacked, so we turned the server off for a minute" demonstrates gross negligence pretty well.

and even then, you'd pretty much have to get a smoking gun in this day and age, like catching her emailing her staffers with direct instructions to violate the law. Good luck finding anything like that.

Clinton responds, "If they can't, turn into nonpaper w no identifying heading and send nonsecure."

Even without the Internet, this guy could've simply attended a talk by an imam:

killing gays according to Islamic law should be done "out of compassion"

(This sort of bigoted hatred is Ok, but arguing that sayers of such stuff should be carefully watched would get you banned from Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit.)

FBI Director James Comey echoed President Obama's statement that he does not think the Orlando shooting was a plot directed from outside of the U.S.

At least, he is not blaming an anti-Islam movie by some weirdo...

I know, this stuff is crazy.

The good news is that there’s 50 less pedophiles in this world, because, you know, these homosexuals are a bunch of disgusting perverts and pedophiles.

[...]

But these people all should have been killed, anyway, but they should have been killed through the proper channels, as in they should have been executed by a righteous government that would have tried them, convicted them, and saw them executed.

[...]

That’s what the Bible says, plain and simple.

Oh wait, wrong religion.

Because the crazy imam calling for the killing of gays is totally representative of Islam.

But the crazy pastor calling for the killing of gays is just some nut who has nothing to do with Christianity.

Point to the Christian mass shootings against gays in this country in the last 5-10 years.

You mean like the Christian terrorist who was thwarted in LA today from carrying out his attack on gays?

I've been watching that story on several sources, and so far, not a single one has identified him as a Christian. So, [citation needed].

Really? Hmm...seems to be...no. And no, and no, and doesn't appear to be so either. Looks like they went hand in hand, but he was more then happy to pledge allegiance to ISIS.

So when's that dialog happening?

Or are we going to say this was an act of Christian terrorism that was fortunately thwarted?

There doesn't seem to be anything tying him to Christianity, so why do yo claim that? He does appear to be progressive though.

The Latest: Chief: Armed Suspect Did Not Say He Meant Harm

The man in the Facebook page appears to be the same James Wesley Howell in a picture released by police, and the page includes several pictures of a white Acura sedan like the one Howell was arrested in on Sunday.

The page's most recent public post, from June 3, shows a photo comparing Adolf Hitler to Hillary Clinton. An anti-Clinton, pro-Bernie Sanders photo was posted in February.

That makes for an interesting tie-in to the Orlando shooter.

Orlando Shooting Suspect Identified As Omar Mateen, Registered Democrat Of Afghan Descent

I think we have the drift of your views regarding Christians. What are your views about Progressives involved in terrorism?

Point to the Christian mass shootings against gays in this country in the last 5-10 years.

You mean like the Christian terrorist who was thwarted in LA today from carrying out his attack on gays?

Of course there are the Christian terrorists shooting up abortion clinics.

And this was domestic terrorism.

The terrorist was an American citizen. Therefore, domestic terrorism.

Or are we going to say this was an act of Christian terrorism that was fortunately thwarted?

I'm really wondering how people can sustain such strong negative emotions towards Hillary ...

She's an amoral, crooked, corrupt, lying dirtbag without a single accomplishment outside of marrying Bill.

She slut-shamed women her husband may very well have raped - attacking any woman who made any claim that Bill harassed or raped her with a "nuts-and-sluts" attack. THEN she turns around and says, "Every woman's accusation of rape or harassment needs to be believed."

She has continuously lied about her ILLEGAL email server - "If they can't, turn into nonpaper w no identifying headings and send nonsecure" - hrod17@clintonemail.com. Of COURSE there were no classified emails with classification markings on them on her server - SHE TOLD HER AIDES TO REMOVE THE MARKINGS!. Oh yeah, that email is pretty much proof that Hillary committed multiple felonies with her ILLEGAL server. She lied about other Secretaries of State using private email. She's lied when she said the FBI isn't conducting a CRIMINAL investigation of her server.

The Clinton Foundation is crooked as the day is long. Secretary of State Hillary! took millions of dollars in "donations" from foreign states WHILE MAKING DECISIONS ON THINGS LIKE WHETHER TO SELL THEM WEAPONS.

The REAL question is, "How much are you getting paid to ask your question?"

One of the 2 candidates proudly declared a large fraction of our fellow Americans "enemies". How can we ignore politics when the political leaders who are supposed to represent us and serve the entire population are "proud" to call every third or fourth American an enemy?

4 years ago I could buy a lbs of beef for $1.99, it's around $5.99-7.30lbs these days. Top that out with 94m people not in the labor force, you've got a recipe for people popping themselves off. Past trends show that as well regardless of what the government says the unemployment rate is, especially unemployment rates where you simply fall off after several years.

Thanks Obama

Yeah I think this is by far the biggest "douche vs turd" election I've ever witnessed, and I can't even fathom how it could possibly get even worse than this. Seriously, this year politics in America has probably hit rock bottom.

If I may speak for a second on behalf of everyone in the rest of the world...

America, you have just shy of 325 million residents. I don't know how many of those are natural-born residents eligible to run for US President, but I assume the percentage is fairly high. Let's say at least 275 million people. How is it that from such a huge number that these are the best people you could come up with???

You guys really need to dig deeper for political talent. We in the outside world are getting worried about you if the current crop of clowns is the best you can find!

The problem is that the two major parties are broken.

The Clinton and their apologists have captured the Democratic Party so thoroughly that Crooked Hillary! can literally commit felonies with classified data and still win the nomination, despite Sanders winning more votes from actual party members. And if you're naive enough believe for a second Crooked Hillary! didn't commit felonies with classified data: "If they can't, turn into nonpaper w no identifying heading and send nonsecure." - hrod17@clintonemail.com Of course the classified emails on Crooked Hillary!'s illegal email server weren't marked classified - Crooked Hillary! TOLD HER AIDES TO REMOVE THE CLASSIFICATION MARKINGS! (Except, well, some of them still were, so Crooked Hillary! lied about that, too - surprise, SURPRISE, SURPRISE!!!)

The Republican Party is broken because its leadership ignores the party base. The Republican Party base voter does not want a bigger government - period. But the Republican leadership "play fights" with Democrats. When Democrats want, for example, $1 trillion for Obamacare, Republican leadership makes a lot of noise, then agrees to fund $750 billion. The base wanted zero. Trump is the Republican base voters' way of damn near literally giving the finger to Republican leadership - because Trump runs around almost literally giving the finger to everyone. The fact that Trump, unlike Republican leadership, is actually willing to give the finger to Democrats too is a bonus.

(And Trump will win because he ain't Crooked Hillary!. Although, the DoJ is now investigating close Clinton confidante and Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe. Why now, one wonders? Speculating here, but perhaps it's Obama's hedge if it becomes necessary in Democrat Party leadership minds to push Crooked Hillary! aside should the email issues wound her obviously enough that she's guaranteed to lose to Trump, but she still refuses to abandon her campaign. Crooked HIllary! won't quit, then suddenly McAuliffe gets caught with enough dirt on Crooked Hillary! that she goes to jail. Hey, I can dream, right?)

5 months after legalization.

A doubling of hospital admittances 1 year after legalization.

Different story, same result. 1 year after legalization.

2 deaths from marijuana use 1 year after legalization.

Third death the following year.

Unreported death due to marijuana.

The last article raises the question, how many more deaths as the result of marijuana use have gone unreported? We know more and more traffic deaths have marijuana as a cause.

But please, let us here more excuses how none of the above is related to marijuana use. Drug users are good at making excuses, especially when presented with facts.

Researchers at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health found that the chemical diacetyl (and acetoin) is present in several vape flavors. Diacetyl is used for "butter flavor" in popcorn & candy - and over a decade ago workers at the popcorn factories began to show signs of the lung disease Bronchiolitis Obliterans, hence the name Popcorn Lung. Links were made between diacetyl and this irreversible lung disease.

There is a very real concern that breathing in vapes containing diacetyl could give uses Popcorn Lung.

Sure - we don't always need a law. But how many people know of this link - and is there a responsibility to inform them? Whose job is that?

Guess you don't read much do you ?
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/...
http://www.cbsnews.com/news/11...
Those are just the top-two links on a simple google search. Rape culture is the way society constantly tries to excuse rapists.

>It's good that you support ending this atrocity,
Oh, you do have sane thoughts sometimes.

>but I'm confused that you've mentioned it when describing 'the war on women'.
What men experience in prison - is the entire WORLD if your'e a woman.

>Asking a rape victim (or claimed rape victim) challenging questions is not victim blaming
"Were you drinking ?"
"What were you wearing ?"
And similar are not challenging questions and they are NEVER relevant to a rape case. If the girl was drunk that CONFIRMS guilt on the accused's part (so if the law was followed there is no way a sane defence attorney would ever ask that question anyway - that they do, that alone proves rape culture). Even if she showed up naked that does NOT constitute consent. Those questions are the epitomy of victim blaming.
Here is the only question you can ask a rape victim that is relevant to a trial: "Did you say you wanted it to happen ?" You can ask related questions to test whether the victim is lying (unlikely) but that's it. It's the only thing that has ANY legal relevance to the trial. NOTHING the victim could POSSIBLY do is relevant to the defense. Even if a girl is giving somebody a blowjob it's STILL rape to penetrate her unless she consents to being penetrated. If she says "only with a condom" and you stick it in without one - that's rape because she did NOT consent to sex without it.

>But I guess you don't want justice.
At MOST 1 in 8 rapes are ever reported, and the conviction rape is unbelievably low. So it's unlikely more than one in 20 rapists ever get punished. Justice is exactly what I DO want. Rape culture is why we can't get it.

I was gonna post pretty much the same thing. It's pretty common that boys outperform girls at math, but girls outperform boys at reading. I assumed summary was just repeating an interesting highlight from a general study, and read TFA only to find out that was the extent of the study. I think it would've been more insightful to see if the boy/girl inequality in reading mirrored the pattern for math, or if it followed a completely different pattern.

As any systems engineer can tell you, weighting one control function (affirmative action) can help return a system to a desired state more quickly (in this case, equality between boys and girls). But this by design creates an underdamped system which will overshoot your desired state, or even arrive at a stable state offset from the desired state. You have to be ready to remove the weighting when the system begins to get close to the desired state so as not to overshoot, and allow it to quickly stabilize at the desired state.

Unfortunately, that isn't happening. TFA is another example - taking one of the few (only) areas where girls still lag behind boys and highlighting it as something which needs to be corrected, while ignoring that girls have far exceeded boys in all other areas. There's always going to be some natural variance with any system. If you insist that one group in that system never lag behind another group, that's not going to result in equality. You're going to end up with a DC offset where that first group never lags because its average is so much higher than the other group's average. i.e. You're going to create a huge inequality opposite the one you were originally trying to correct. That's pretty much the state we're currently in, with girls far outperforming boys in all aspects of education except math. These educational programs favoring girls should've been dismantled two decades ago (date on the CBS article is 2002).

by turning a guy that made a mistake into a hardened criminal.

Let the excuses begin! The guy who shot his wife after he ate pot candy did not make a mistake. He made a conscious decision to ignore the evidence that pot makes one more aggressive for a short time immediately after consuming/smoking. That he may have also taken prescription medications because he wasn't thinking clearly because of the pot again shows he ignored the evidence one doesn't think with a clear head when under the influence of pot.

How about the guy who killed a woman who was a passenger in a car because he was drunk and had a BAC of over twice the limit an HOUR after he killed her?

Let's not even get into the daily shootings by inner city folks because of some perceived slight or walking in the wrong neighborhood or looking at someone's girlfriend.

None of these things are mistakes. These are deliberate, conscious acts by the person. They obviously have no regard for anyone else so there is no reason we should have regard for them. Actions have consequences.

Why are we paying to clean up their mess?

Our lawmakers are too busy sucking BP's dick.

The main health concern with e-cigarettes appears to be, from what I've heard, that we don't know anything about the long-term effects of inhaling the substances that were listed, and in particular after they've been heated to X temperature. While I agree it does appear that e-cigarettes are a lot safer than regular cigarettes, I think it's a good idea to be cautious on things like this.

Given the small market share of e-cig producers, the tobacco companies have the ability to buy them out right if they thought they were a good future market.

Yes, they've been doing so for some time now: http://www.cbsnews.com/news/to...

But with the crash of the Euro, it would be have been less expensive to bring it back and pay the taxes. Only a fool keeps cash in the Eurozone.

No, its less expensive to take the 18% loss in EURO/USD exchange, 1.35'ish to 1.1'ish in the last 10 years.
http://www.xe.com/currencychar...

So with a US tax rate of 35% and an Irish tax rate of 12.5%, Apple would owe the US government the difference, 22.5%.
http://www.cbsnews.com/news/ap...

So they save about 4.5% even with the Euro's devaluation relative to the US dollar.

Consider that Apple has expenses in the Eurozone so that local cash can be used to pay those. Plus any new expenses, new stores, new R&D facilities, any acquired EU based companies, licensing any EU based tech, etc. The point (or problem from the US perspective) is that with all that cash "stuck" in the EU Apple will naturally look at ways to spend that cash in the EU. US tax policy encourages US corporations to expand overseas rather than bring those profits home to the US.

Now consider a 15% tax rate on overseas earnings. Apple would only owe 2.5% to the US government. Fear of currency devaluation would matter. The barrier to bringing those profits home would be negligible. But its not just the money collected by the US government through taxes, now that money can spur economic activity in the US rather then the EU. More R&D in the US, more acquisitions in the US, etc. Those robotic factories that are going to disassemble devices for recycling? Maybe those robots could be used for assembly too and we could have more manufacturing in the US, some low volume Macs are assembled in the US. Money is flowing in the correct (US perspective) direction with respect to foreign trade deficits.

Maybe make that 15% tax rate conditional on re-investment in US based plants, equipment, research, etc?

Jesus Christ this whole scandal makes no sense. Every public figure and business should have a secure server. Really. But nobody does.

That sounds GREAT!!!! Where do we start?

It is when you're violating the law to set it up to avoid FOIA requests.

Oh yeah, there are emails from Hillary!'s server where she tells an aide to to just that.

Grow some balls and Google "Hillary email remove classification".

Better yet, since you've obviously drank deep of the Klinton Kool-Aid:

In email, Hillary Clinton tells aide to send talking points "nonsecure"

Part of the exchange is redacted, so the context of the emails is unknown, but at one point, Sullivan tells Clinton that aides "say they've had issues sending secure fax. They're working on it."

Clinton responds, "If they can't, turn into nonpaper w no identifying heading and send nonsecure."

Well, no fucking wonder the classified emails that Hillary! saw on her illegal server weren't marked!

Except that scenario doesn't exist. It isn't like the Boston bombers, Paris attackers, Brussels attackers used encrypted communication. In the case of the Boston bombers it was the government's own incompetence that screwed those people, it isn't like Russia warned the US about those 2 ass clowns, well shit. Also it isn't like the leader of the Pairs attack was featured in ISIS's magazine, well fuck me. Since is has come out that the Paris attackers and Brussels attackers were in contact and seemingly related it sure seem like the authorities suck balls at doing their jobs and may be should be gathering less information on everyone and instead look into people who are interviewed by pig fuckers monthly or are told by some other country to keep an eye on. I also remember a while ago seeing that the FBI or CIA stating that encryption hasn't prevented them from getting the brake they needed in any of their cases. I would cite the article but with their recent about face and encryption being in the news a tone that appears to have been buried and I can't find it.
