    It's funny how a little knowledge makes celebrities dangerous.
    "Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."

    Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

        FBI warrant released in Clinton email case

        A federal court on Tuesday released the search warrant documents filed by the FBI to access a laptop used by disgraced ex-Rep. Anthony Weiner and his estranged wife, Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin, revealing new details about why the bureau revisited the email case just days before the presidential election.


        The FBI’s earlier investigation found “27 email chains containing classified information” that were exchanged between Clinton and Abedin, and investigators wanted to see what was also on the Abedin-Weiner laptop, according to the government affidavit unsealed Tuesday. That laptop, the FBI noted, “was never authorized for the storage or transmission of classified or national defense information,” according to the application for the warrant, which was partially redacted.


        The October re-opening of the Clinton investigation sprung from an unrelated case involving Weiner allegedly sexting with an underage girl. During the course of that inquiry, agents discovered the joint laptop and later found emails addressed to and sent from Clinton.

        If true, Obama may need to issue some more presidential pardons before Trump takes office.

        Edit: The FBI search warrant. The mention of the classified chains is in paragraph 25: https://www.docdroid.net/9jbWcQE/fbi...f.html#page=15

                • The dems' fix:

                  More states consider working around the Electoral College

                  Frustrated after seeing another candidate secure the presidency without winning the national popular vote, mostly Democratic lawmakers in several capitols want their states to join a 10-year-old movement to work around the Electoral College.


                  In states including Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Ohio and New Mexico, legislators have said they plan to introduce legislation that would require their state's Electoral College voters cast ballots for the presidential candidate who earns the most votes nationwide, regardless of the statewide results.


                  "Every vote in this country should have equal weight. The Electoral College is a relic of a bygone era, and we need to change this system," said Connecticut state Sen. Mae Flexer, who filed a bill with several fellow Democrats requiring Connecticut to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.

                      Why even have states?

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                        • I don't get Dr. Jill Stein... First, she runs as a green party candidate and helps Trump win. Then she raises the funds to conduct a recount in various swing states exposing voting problems in places like Detroit and finds extra votes for Trump. And she is tweeting out things like this on Christmas day:



                          She must really hate the democrats.

                            • The Demos think that given their campaign strategy in the recent election, with the change in the electoral law, they would win out. However, they don't account for the fact that opposing candidates would also consider the change in strategy. Other players will move at the same time.

                              They need better analysts. Trump may have said this tongue-in-cheek when he said that if the rules were different, he would have put all his resources into capturing the large states, but he is showing that there are many moving parts.

                              And I also laugh at the smaller states that would hamstring their own populations with the votes from large states. New Mexico WTF?
