FBI Clears Hillary Clinton After Finishing Probe Of New Emails

Clinton should not have used her own server while Secretary of State, which made her communications vulnerable to hacking, but her mistakes were not criminal. Trump had highlighted the issue as proof for his argument that Clinton is corrupt.

“This election is a moment of reckoning”, she told voters on Sunday night. Clinton and Trump were both nostalgic at times, looking back fondly at a campaign that has put each on the brink of the presidency.

Then came Sunday’s announcement, which effectively cleared Clinton.

Earnest referred questions about the details of the investigation to the FBI, and said the White House hadn’t been briefed on either the inquiry itself or Comey’s decision to inform Congress about it. “Now Director Comey has confirmed it”, tweeted Clinton spokesman Brian Fallon.

“I don’t know what her view will be, but. you just can not have an Federal Bureau of Investigation director in place who believes he is accountable to neither the rules nor the attorney general”, said Matthew Miller, former chief spokesman for the Obama Justice Department.

“As a founding member of the FDAF I have been a proud and loyal supporter for several years and am honored to be at tonight’s event”, wrote Pecker, a former president of the group, in an email to the AP.

Obama’s address amounted to a valedictory for a president whose popularity has grown in his final year in office. As he surveyed the crowd in Scranton, Pennsylvania, he declared, “It’s been a long journey”. Most recent opinion polls show Clinton leading in all three, but Trump is hoping for a surge among white voters who lack college degrees.

When the work was completed, the official said, the conclusion had to be delivered. But he warned it would all slip away if he loses today.”Go vote”, he urged.

Trump’s campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, told reporters Sunday that Trump planned to keep up the breakneck campaign pace through Election Day.

The bottom line: Comey’s conclusion from an earlier investigation stands.

But almost 40 million voters have already cast mail-in, absentee or early voting ballots.

The speed with which agents reviewed the trove of emails – found on a laptop belonging to Anthony Weiner, the estranged husband of Huma Abedin, a close Clinton aide – suggested investigators encountered many duplicates of messages they had already seen.

Manipulate they did. House Republicans asserted that the FBI investigation into Clinton had been “reopened”, and began discussing potential impeachment before the results of the election are even known. On Monday, he was going to Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and New Hampshire.

Sunday’s event with Cleveland Cavaliers superstar LeBron James was Clinton’s last scheduled visit to OH, where she has trailed Trump in most recent polls despite a heavy emphasis on turning out black voters in Cleveland.

On Monday, Clinton focused on the places that don’t allow early voting. “It was really more created to cover up the truth and lead to exoneration”.

On the trail, Mr Trump connected Mr Comey’s announcement to separate concerns about governance arrangements at his rival’s family philanthropic foundation.

On Monday, Trump’s schedule reflects his tough position – needing to win a string of states where the race is either tied or he is behind.

Still, the Democrat appeared to have a much more plausible road to victory in the Electoral College.

One of the biggest winners was the Mexican peso, which has been a market proxy for sentiment over the USA election and has performed in inverse correlation with Trump’s perceived chances of winning the White House.

“IMPOSSIBLE: There R 691,200 seconds in 8 days”, one of Trump’s advisers, retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, tweeted on Sunday afternoon.
