Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I think i I've never seen such a bull shit press conference as this, she is lying out hir teeth with every word trying to make it sound like a conspiracy by bringing up Pizza gate and UFO's.
Okay, where's your proof that Republicans didn't bring up repeatedly Democrats drinking babies blood in a pizzeria's basement and UFO's?
Oh wait you don't because Republicans demanded the deposition be closed despite Clinton asking for it to be open.
I would want it public too so I could appeal to it simply being absurd. the public has demonstrated time and time again that they cannot accept that people in power can ever do anything wrong.
not only that we simply do not have what is in those documents it might seem absurd to us if we haven't seen it the true horrors that we already know for a fact are in those documents.
Also we know the vast majority of the files have not been released yet and they are protecting powerful people (poorly) she is a powerful person we do not have the information on her we need to judge her.
This could all be a political stunt to make her look bad (I don't think so she doesn't seem all that appalled with Bill she at the very least knows) but we won't get to the bottom of it until both Republicans and Democrats are out and a third party who is not beholden to Epstein and his cohorts are all out, so don't blindly vote Democrat.
So much gish to gallop here.
-I'm glad we agree that the hearing should have been public.
-The fact that there are files still not released has no relevance here with your argument that Hillary was lying through her teeth. What we do know and have is that ~3 million files have been released and Hillary Clinton has been mentioned 700+ times and most of it has been with campaign stuff or gossipy crap between other people talking about her. I think the most damning thing release so far is having Epstein at her daughters wedding as a link between her and Epstein.
-Your attempts to both sides things also has no bearing on your claim she was lying through her teeth.
Nothing that you have pointed out supports the fact she was lying through her teeth about the deposition and honestly, I find your attempt to both sides things in this current situation is crap, a red herring to avoid your claim here
And honestly fuck this timeline where I'm having to justifiably defend a Clinton, which I would like to point out my personal opinion of her has no bearing on the veracity of her truthfulness of her account of her closed door testimony.
