James Comey, not even close to being liberal (previously worked in W.'s administration) had investigators going over Clinton's SOS service and the main issue wrong was using her own computer server for some emails outside of the provided government email service system. Unethical...yes, according to US office of ethics Walter Schaub, but it was depending on what email content consisted of. There were no federal law standards written at the time. When the office was created by W. in 2002, Walter Schaub ran the office from 2002 to 2017. Schaub eventually resigned since jackass kept ignoring Schaub's directives from the office of ethics department which was eventually shut down iirc after Schaub resigned.
After Clinton's time in SOS ended, federal laws were drafted and created to ensure that it must be known that only government computers and government provided email service can only be used if working in federal government.

I will guess that after recent events, we will be finding out what evidence will turn up. What happened will be getting a thorough review and one future charge is conspiracy to commit murder on an elected official. Who were those inside the Capitol building...with exception of SoS office, the list is below. The jackass had been claiming that "...Pence has betrayed him" in hopes that maybe the cult followers might do something to Pence. Had something happened in which Pence or or others congress members been done in, then the jackass would have use Insurrection Act in trying to declare martial law.
I'll usually agree with Nance most times, but maybe this one I go with a different take. The Senate selects the VP if a VP needed to be replaced such as Agnew and Ford in 1970s so it isn't that the sob doesn't get to select anyone as VP if that had to be done.

Malcolm Nance just made a chilling point. All the people who were in the line of succession for government were in the Capitol during the breach. If they were killed, that would have left drumpf as a monarch.

TBH, there was a period, between the initial breach and the news that the security forces had cleared the building, where I was genuinely terrified, because I was expecting the climax toward which all of this was clearly building: when Trump invoked the Insurrection Act and imposed martial law nationwide. That would have been the final step to achieve the coup for which this could have served as the "Reichstag fire"-like pretext. But it never happened. Why not? Were Trump and his minions so clueless as to not take advantage of the situation they themselves had helped foment? Did Trump try to impose martial law, but get told by the Pentagon they wouldn't comply before he had a chance to issue a declaration? Don't know but, in any "well-coordinated coup," there has to be a battle plan for how to get from inception to cementing power. And, clearly, either Trump and his henchmen never had such a plan, or they had one and failed to get the cooperation needed to implement it. --
Kudos to this poster for providing some details even if there might be different views in the specifics of what was to be carried out.
Clever paper headline title.
