Today’s paragraph comes to us from Glenn Greenwald – an advocacy journalist who is about as far from being a Donald Trump booster as you can get.
Here is what Mr. Greenwald had to say about FBI Director James Comey’s statement, yesterday, in which he skewered Hillary Clinton eight ways from Sunday and then couldn’t find a reason for the Department of Justice to pursue any legal action:
The Obama-appointed FBI Director gave a press conference showing that she recklessly handled Top Secret information, engaged in conduct prohibited by law, and lied about it repeatedly to the public. But she won’t be prosecuted or imprisoned for any of that, so Democrats are celebrating. But if there is to be anything positive that can come from this lowly affair, perhaps Democrats might start demanding the same reasonable leniency and prosecutorial restraint for everyone else who isn’t Hillary Clinton.
