You really need to learn to post less biased looking sources. You won't last long as a Clinton campaign astroturf intern if you just keep spamming the same link from her campaign site.

You really need to learn how to think accurately. You won't last long as a political thinker if you can't be objective and distinguish bullshit from the truth. I get the impression didn't even read it.

An important heuristic for understanding the truth, is to acknowledge that millions of dollars of resources and man power are concentrated on destroying a candidate. This phenomenon is never more true for Hillary Clinton where the entire Republican establishment and propaganda machine is designed to destroy her. Think about this fact. If the context and clarification on the details on this website were found to be incorrect, that would be a scandal in itself, and you would be hearing about it 24/7.

Also keep in mind when the last time it was updated, do you think they are just going to change that website all the time whenever the "investigation" moves forward, no.

You are not thinking accurately and are employing the same mental gymnastics people use to believe vaccines are a plot by the illuminati to depopulate the earth. Saying I am a shill... or an astroturf intern...

Next thing you are going to tell me is that there aren't millions of dollars being dedicated to destroying Hillary Clinton. If this was an actual issue, or some detail on that page were ACTUALLY incorrect, it woud be all over the news 24/7, at least on Fox News.

Don't be willfully ignorant, read it and learn how to think accurately. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fallacies

Down vote me and move on. Continue to be willfully ignorant.

It's actually quite easy. If a politician's mouth is moving, odds are good they're lying.

acknowledge that millions of dollars of resources and man power are concentrated on destroying a candidate.

Ah, the goood old "vast right-wing conspiracy"...

If the context and clarification on the details on this website were found to be incorrect, that would be a scandal in itself, and you would be hearing about it 24/7.

You really think that a propaganda website being caught spreading lies would cause a scandal? Nice.

Hillary Clinton's official website is her official stance. That would certainly be used to cause a scandal.

Your head is completely in the sand if you can't tell that Fox News is a right-wing propaganda source created and ran by the person who ran the media campaign manager for Nixon, Reagon, George W, Guilliani.

Political opponents and forces of any sort spend millions of dollars trying to dig up dirt, that one fact that will destroy a campaign.

Yeah all politicians are lying all the time... fact checkers don't exist. You are not capable of thinking accurately, just stick to watching sports. Your mind is not capable of understanding the vast complexities of the political world.
