State Dept. Releases 5,500 Hillary Clinton Emails, 275 Retroactively Classified (nbcnews.com)

An anonymous reader sends this report from NBC News: The State Department on Thursday released 5,500 more pages of Hillary Clinton's emails, but fell short of meeting a court-ordered target of making 82 percent of the former secretary of state's messages public by the end of 2015. The email dump is the latest release from the private server Clinton used during her time as America's top diplomat. The State Department said it failed to meet the court's goal because of "the large number of documents involved and the holiday schedule." Portions of 275 documents in the batch were upgraded to classified, though they were not classified at the time they were sent to Clinton's personal email, according to the State Department. In total, 1,274 of her emails were retroactively classified by the government before their release.

    Trump is running the most successful false-flag operation in the history of American politics.

    He's also running one of the most successful campaigns this season.

    I just read an article where the polls show that Bernie would have a better chance of beating Trump than Hillary.

    The Republicans don't want Trump as their candidate, and the Democrats don't want Bernie.

    We could very easily have an election where no one wants *either* candidate!

    This is turning out to be a most hilarious election season.
