Reich on the FBI's decision

From his FB post. Too big to prosecute she is. Just like the big banks. No surprise, since she is in effect a lobbyist for them. Even though there is evidence that she violated statutes related to classified info I'm guessing she won't be prosecuted for that either. An excerpt:

"FBI Director James B. Comey says his agency will not recommend criminal charges against Hillary Clinton for her use of a private email server as secretary of state. But he called Clinton and her staff 'extremely careless' in handling sensitive material – and noted that 'there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information' [my emphasis]. 


"While recommending no criminal charges, Comey nevertheless systematically dismantled all the public explanations Clinton has offered to reassure the public for the past 15 months [my emphasis]: He said careful analysis by officials from multiple agencies found there was classified material and that in 110 emails the information was sensitive enough to be classified at the time it was sent, not just after the fact; that some of it was 'top secret' dealing with 'special access programs,' the very highest level of classification; that Clinton authored some of the most concerning emails and that the conversations were sufficiently sensitive that a person in her job should have known they contained classified material; that the material was susceptible to being hacked; that she used multiple personal servers; and that the FBI had uncovered thousands of her emails that hadn’t been turned over to the State Department."
