This is blatant criminality on high by those who demonstrate by their own actions at least an indifference to their positions of authority and for the law of the land, but to the observer, who really display an utter contempt for the people they 'serve', the system they 'work' for, and for the positions they hold. In my soon to be 65 years in this world I do not believe I have witnessed a greater flouting of the criminal justice system and of the American people than what the Clinton's have accumulated in criminality, treachery and murderous intent over the years, and that is amply and dutifully recorded as self-evident proofs of their vile and evil intent to which no one within the Obama administration is prepared to proceed on. One of America's founding fathers, Benjamin Franklin, when leaving the house where the Declaration of Independence was drawn up was asked by a woman in the crowd of interested bystanders; "What have you given us, Sir?" Franklin's immediate response was; "A republic madam, if you can keep it!"

Notice how the dregs of the Outlaw US Empire's political system protect each other regardless of Party. Too bad we can't get the CCP to apply its rules dealing with corruption on the uber capitalist dregs within the Outlaw US Empire.
The FBI has announced that will not recommend the prosecution of presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, following an investigation into her use of email. Clinton, it seems, will fare better than US whistleblowers who were guilty of less.
Tuesday morning, FBI Director James Comey announced the results of the agency’s investigation into whether Clinton mishandled classified material during her time as US Secretary of State. Despite his opinion that Clinton was "extremely careless" and that "any reasonable person should have known that an unclassified system was no place for that kind of information," the FBI will not recommend that the Department of Justice prosecute.
"Our judgement is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring a case," Comey told reporters, adding that "no charges are appropriate."
Despite the fact that Clinton stored "top secret" material on "unclassified personal servers," potentially placing national security at risk, the likely Democratic presidential candidate will be face fewer repercussions than American whistleblowers, including John Kiriakou.
A former CIA analyst, Kiriakou was one of the first to come forward with revelations that the United States relied on the use of illegal torture practices as part of its war on terror. He was sentenced to 30 months in prison for unveiling classified information.
"Comey’s decision reflects the utter hypocrisy of the justice system in matters of national security," Kiriakou told Sputnik.
"If you are a whistleblower you can expect the entire weight of the US government to fall on your head. But if you are a well-connected political figure, or a friend of the president, you can violate the country’s espionage laws with impunity and know that you’ll get away with it."
Many have pointed to an “impromptu” meeting between former President Bill Clinton and US Attorney General Loretta Lynch aboard her government aircraft in Arizona last week as a sign of the Clinton’s hand in shaping the US government’s decision.
"That meeting was yet another indication of how the Clintons play by their own rules," Kiriakou said. "They don’t care about the appearance of impropriety, they care only about the Clintons.”
It remains unclear whether the FBI’s decision will impact the November presidential election.
"Certainly the Republicans will be able to capitalize on it because most Americans believe that she committed a crime," Kiriakou asserted.
"I think that many voters will conclude that the fix was in and there was never really any chance she would be prosecuted in the first place."
