To indict someone, the criteria is supposed to be “intent.” Comey has used that to pretend there is no evidence that Hillary “intentionally” erased anything. Comey also stated that Hillary’s lawyers erased her emails using a keyword search program and they did not “read” the emails. He added that he would not recommend charges against Hillary or her aides.
“Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information, there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information,” Comey declared.
It was Comey who indicted Frank Quattrone for claiming he instructed his people to erase emails in his technology-industry banking group at Credit Suisse Group’s Credit Suisse First Boston, based upon a single email that read “clean up those files” in December 2000. That was more than enough for his “intent” requirement to obstruct justice. This further illustrates the double standard of justice for them vs. us.
Comey has said that he could not find anyone else who had been prosecuted for such a thing, but then added after clearing Hillary that this is not to say everyone in the government can do this or that they would not prosecute someone else for the same thing. Comey said,“[O]ur judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case.”
Comey presented a scathing rebuke of Hillary’s conduct that anyone else would have certainly been indicted for. For Obama to have announced in advance he would campaign for Hillary, it was clear that this was a cover-up and he knew the results before today. For Comey to say, “Although we did not find clear evidence [of any intentional misconduct] there is evidence that they were extremely careless of very sensitive, highly classified information.” It is the jury’s role to determine if there is any evidence and the case should have been presented for a Grand Jury to decide if she should have been indicted. That, of course, is off limits as well.
Comey went on to all but acknowledge that Russia hacked Hillary’s emails:

For those who just came out of a 15 year coma, there are
Two Sets of Laws.
One for the serfs. One for the Masters.
Right in your face. Every single day.
You cheer it and they can't stop laughing at your stupidity.
Prison for us. A lifetime of wealth and privilege for them.
Its an historical marker for the decline of a society.
Keep cheering.
The fix was in from the beginning. Obama and Hillary made their plans to back one another when Hillary threw in the towel and backed Obama for President in '08. He would then support her run in '16. They have both lied to the American public for 8 years, actually more. She said she would not be charged with any crime months ago and Obama had planned to campaign with her BEFORE Comey's statement that he would not recommend charges against Hillary. Had he charged her with the mishandling of classified material, which she is clearly guilty of, she could not run for President.
