Adar posted:If all else fails, a brokered convention as such is a near impossibility because none of the first tier candidates would jump on the nomination sword. For it to work out they would have to have a savior candidate who could outpoll Hillary without many of the Trump voters. That person doesn't exist. Mitt

Fun fact: the Chairman of the Republican National Convention, who would be in the position to recognize nominations after the first round of balloting is... Paul D. Ryan.

Just so we're clear - Petraeus writes down information that's classified in a physical notebook, locks it in his drawer, never shows anyone = federal conviction, six figure fine, 2 years probation Hillary runs hundreds if not thousands of emails with classified data on a server sitting on the internet in a bathroom closet, no one can say for sure it wasn't compromised = nbd, no crime Do I have that right

Also, none of the information on her server was classified at the time -- it was classified after the fact -- in intra-departmental squabbling.

A Winner is Jew posted:Didn't the FBI clear Hillary recently though? Clearing would imply she ever faced a charge or criminal investigation. The FBI was and is culling for classified data to ensure all the classified info, which the state dept had stupidly and ineptly and against regulation left stored on unsecured networks, could be identified, ramifications identified, and information stored or destroyed properly. Think accident investigator versus criminal investigation.

fishmech posted:I wouldn't trade that because it would probably have horrible climate and environmental effects, and again it still wouldn't actually supply the US because the sun ain't shining at night. There has been a lot of progress in this regard—I know at least one thermal-solar plant has been able to maintain power output for ~15 hours with no sun, so it's able to provide uninterrupted power overnight. Obviously doesn't solve getting electricity from Nevada to Maine, but there are some much more flexible options out there than straight up photovoltaics.
