One that orders people to destroy evidence?
Paul Combetta, an IT specialist who helped Hillary Clinton wipe her server clean of evidence requested from federal authorities, took to online forums to find advice on how to commit the crime.
Combetta cited his Fifth Amendment rights in refusing to answer questions before a congressional committee last week, but was pretty talkative when trying to find out information from fellow IT experts on how to forge Clinton’s e-mails.
Under a posting on 8chan titled “Here is clear proof that Hillary sought to destroy evidence,” Combetta can be seen posting under a username he uses multiple times across multiple platforms, ‘stonetear.’
In a screenshot of the discussion, Combetta (or stonetear) can be seen telling others “I need to strip out a VIP’s (VERY VIP) email address from a bunch of archived emails.”
Presumably, that VIP would be Secretary of State Clinton.

The fact that politicalinsider considered a posting on 8chan to be credible and factual pretty much rules out any credibility to the story.

did anyone wish Clinton to be the nominee, here? No. But the choice at this point is stark, and rather easy.

Pretty much this. She's got a great resume and that's the nicest thing anyone has to say about her. Unfortunately, I can't find anything nice to say about Don Trump. He seems to have zero redeeming qualities and is just as untrustworthy if not more so.

let's put it another way: While the choice of Clinton is imperfect(most everything is), we are NOT electing THIS kind of President:

No, Hillary Clinton just used her position as Sec.State to grant favors to people who donated to the Clinton Crime Family Foundation.

And you don't think Trump will be granting favors to foreigners because it benefits his business interests? Trump says he's going to put his whole business empire into a blind trust if he's elected, but it's going to be a blind trust run by his own kids. That's not a blind trust by anyone's definition and that's going to be a big conflict of national interest concerning anything Trump does as president.

Oh please slick, stop your never ending ignorance ploy:
In emails obtained in June by Citizens United, another watchdog group, it was revealed that a Chicago securities trader who was a Clinton bundler and gave at least $1 million to the foundation landed on the International Security Advisory Board despite having no experience in the field.
The donor, Rajiv K. Fernando, got the gig in 2011 after Mills intervened, according to an email.
The board provides advice to the State Department on all arms control, and its members are national security experts with scientific, military, diplomatic and political backgrounds, according to its website.
After ABC News reported Fernando’s role, he resigned within 24 hours.

Last time I listened to Trump, he approximated that in one
sentence, if the rambling spittle that flies out of the corners of his mouth can even qualify as such.

And lets not forget the lack of any verbal support to the Iranian student uprising and turning her back on a friendly ally in Egypt...Mubarak
