FBI Releases Hillary Clinton Email Report (cnn.com)
The FBI released 58-pages documents on Friday detailing its investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server while she was secretary of state, and a summary of her interview with agents, providing the most thorough look yet at the probe that has dogged the campaign of the Democratic presidential nominee. CNN reports: Clinton repeatedly told the FBI she lacked recollection of key events. She said she "could not recall any briefing or training by State related to the retention of federal records or handling classified information," according to the FBI's notes of their July 2 interview with Clinton. Fallout from Clinton's use of a private email server continues to dog the Democratic presidential nominee's campaign, as her lead over her Republican counterpart Donald Trump has been cut in half since her post convention bounce last month, according to CNN's Poll of Polls released Thursday. Trump and other Republicans have stepped up their attacks connecting the emails to questions over whether Clinton gave preferential treatment to donors to her family's foundation. The bureau is making the information public in response to numerous Freedom of Information Act requests, including from CNN. "Today the FBI is releasing a summary of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's July 2, 2016 interview with the FBI concerning allegations that classified information was improperly stored or transmitted on a personal e-mail server she used during her tenure," the agency said in a statement. "We also are releasing a factual summary of the FBI's investigation into this matter."
There's no fourth option. Only combinations of these three choices.

January 21 will begin with GOP members attempting to initiate impeachment hearings ... People who like the government to not get any meaningful work done should be able to rest easy.
People who like the government to not get any meaningful work done are terrified of a Clinton presidency. The scenario goes like this:
In addition to increasing the current horde of left-wing judges at lower levels, with Souter dead and Thomas expected to retire after the election she gets to replace two conservative justices with her own appointees. This is expected to turn the Supreme Court into a rubber stamp for progressive policies.
Then she just needs to continue, and expand, the ignore-the-constitution, ignore-the-congress, rule-by-executive-order approach of the Obama administration (which is similar to things that were done on a much smaller scale during Bill's presidency).
Without the courts to call her on it, this could turn the country's infrastructure into a Soviet-style People's Republic. And by importing and/or legalizing additional hordes of Democratic voters she can lock it in for the foreseeable future. The result would be, within eight years, either such a conversion, or (when she gets to the "disarm the potential opposition with gun bans" stage), a second civil war (depending on how serious gun owners are about the "from my cold dead hands" rhetoric.)
A new pro-Trump campaign slogan is starting to show up: "It's the Supreme Court, stupid!", while the Trump campaign is pushing a "This is the country's last chance." The above concern (along with Trump's brilliant move of publishing HIS short-list of Supreme Court candidates - all strict constitutionalists) is why a lot of people who might otherwise stay home or vote Libertarian plan to hold their noses and vote for Trump.
