Above the law!

There is only one news story today. Hillary Clinton has been cleared by the FBI! Politico has the story:

FBI Director James Comey on Tuesday announced the agency is not recommending the Justice Department bring charges against Hillary Clinton, while also denouncing the former secretary of state and her colleagues for the way they handled classified information through private email servers.

"Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information, there is information that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information," Comey told reporters in Washington, D.C., noting that the probe has found that the former secretary of state used several different email servers and numerous devices during her time in office.

“The system is rigged. General Petraeus got in trouble for far less. Very very unfair! As usual, bad judgment,” Trump tweeted Tuesday morning, making reference to the disgraced former CIA director who resigned in the wake of an extramarital affair with his biographer with whom he had shared classified information.

Trump reiterated his claims of a rigged system in a subsequent tweet. “FBI director said Crooked Hillary compromised our national security. No charges. Wow! #RiggedSystem,” he wrote.

...Comey announced that 110 emails in 52 separate chains had been determined to contain classified information “at the time they were sent or received.”

...“But even if information is not marked ‘classified’ in an email, participants who know or should know that the subject matter is classified are still obligated to protect it,” Comey said.

The FBI’s investigation is only the latest probe into one of the Clintons’ alleged wrongdoings, following multiple investigations into Clinton’s response to the 2012 attacks in Benghazi, Libya, and an array of scandals that dogged President Bill Clinton during his time in the White House.

...But even the integrity of the FBI’s investigation was called into question when Bill Clinton had an impromptu meeting that same day with Attorney General Loretta Lynch. On Friday, Lynch said their meeting "cast a shadow" over the investigation and asserted that she "certainly wouldn't do it again."

...“The FBI decision shows once again how the Clintons and others at the top get to live by a different set of rules from everyone else,” tweeted Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), the former chairman for the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
