The FBI is investigating (not reviewing, investigating (there is a difference (a big one))) compromising national security in order to protect her own. Subsequent destruction of evidence and repeated systematic obstruction of justice. Now, we don’t know what has been compromised, so we can’t assess the risks. We don’t know which of the yoga routines the Russians and Chinese have or what is in them. So we have no idea what chaos could result. We don’t know what happens when a US Commander in Chief of a frightfully powerful military is at the mercy of a foreign power.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif'>All Mrs. Clinton needed to do is obey the law, hand over the server with everything on it as soon as the subpoena was issued.

I have seen nothing convincing to prove this. We must assume the bad guys have all of those yoga routines.

But we don’t know any of that. The evidence is missing. How did that happen I wonder? To assert that the risk of nuclear war or other military strike is lower under Clinton and Trump sounds like wishful speculation to me. I think it is way lower under a Johnson than either.
