FBI confirms that Trump's tweets about Hillary Clinton's email were a lie

[phands]

From the department of "No Surprise Here".....

[FONT=&quot]Overnight, Donald Trump repeated the latest conspiracy theory making the rounds on the alt-Reich, a claim that Hillary Clinton’s email had been hacked by the Chinese. The claim, which started with an anonymously sourced report on the website Daily Caller, has been repeated both on the air and on the net by Fox News. According to the report, investigators for the intelligence community Inspector General uncovered the intrusion and attempted to get the FBI to take action, only to be stopped by Clinton-loving FBI officials, including the recently fired Peter Strzok. But now the FBI is pushing back on the unsupported claims, saying once again that there is no evidence that Clinton’s private email server was compromised.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]According to [/FONT]the Washington Post[FONT=&quot], when asked to respond, the FBI simply stated that it has “never found any evidence” of a breach in Clinton’s private servers. Trump has often deliberately confused the server that Clinton’s staff maintained while she was secretary of State with the server at the DNC which was breached by Russian hackers, who went on to steal thousands of emails. Clinton’s server, and the emails it contained, were the subject of multiple investigations by the FBI and congressional committees. None of those investigations turned up the slightest scrap of evidence that the security of the server had been violated by China or anyone else.[/FONT]

Oh well. The trumptarded already believe it, and no amount of evidence is going to change their "minds." This is especially so because the evil communist FBI is supplying the information.

Remember people. She's fair game because she's an "Ah, arab".

There are only two ways to know if Trump is lying:

1) His lips are moving
2) his fingers (thumbs?) are tweedling.

Other than under such conditions, he is PROBABLY lying, but you can't know for sure.
I hope that helps.

Why do "journalists" write this way? You immediately know the extreme bias of the writer and that you can't trust anything that follows.

How to tell if Trump is lying? He turns bright orange. (Actually, the shade is 'moldy hay', but bright orange sounds nicer.)

Sorry, Trump lying is not news.

Sorry, Trump lying is not news.

Yes. It is news.

One of the worst parts of the Trump presidency is that he's completely normalized having the President of the United States blatantly lie on a daily basis. He still needs to be called out on that every single fucking day to keep pounding home the fact that this is not acceptable behaviour, no matter how repetitive or redundant doing so becomes and no matter how few people bother to listen or care.

When you accept the fact that the President lying isn't news, you are granting Trump a major victory which he does not deserve.

Disagree. It's perfectly acceptable to have an 'extreme bias' against (the following list is not exhaustive):
- Nazis
-trump
-known right wingers
-conspiracy theory kooks
-trump
-anyone in the current executive branch picked by trump
-trump
-anyone in or closely tied to the alt-right
-trump

Ya, it's like when food reporters call carrots "vegetables" and chips "junk food". Their blatant pro-health bias in the service of extremist positions like "accuracy" and "honest reporting" taints the entire article.

I try and pull a Sawyer and what happens? A serious talking to! Gimme a break pleez...

Well, congratulations. It ain't easy to get him out of facetious mode.
