Can anyone recommend a politics online forum (similar to redcafe) where this USA election is being discussed?

I know a place where you can find batshit crazy Trumpers who are actually somehow somewhat average, successful people... PM forthcoming.

Does it have any validity? If they can prove a connection to Abdullah Omar Naseef and MWL \ Rabita Trust then that is not healthy at all.

There is a mosque called the Rabita Mosque in Norway which has supplied like 60% of our Syrian ISIS exports. They were linked to the Rabita Trust.

I've always assumed it was BS

So his agents kept it from him?

If it were me, I would've had the search warrant and evaluated the emails before telling him anything. Or at least started the process. That way he could say "we found some emails that were potentially pertinent to the investigation, but we've evaluated them and they're all duplicates (or whatever the case is)." Anything is better than him saying "oh, we might have some emails that could be relevant to the investigation so we're going to look into it" before they even get a search warrant for them.

It leads me to believe that they wanted to put him in this situation. If so, the agents should be dismissed immediately. They've damaged the integrity of the FBI and potentially impacted the election. His actions have also damaged the integrity of the organization. He violated DOJ policies for the sake of his own career.

So you think this is internal FBI dick swinging and the US election context is just collateral damage?

It seems this way. Why else would they wait weeks or a month to tell Comey about it? There have been leaks that some of the agents involved in the investigation were unhappy with the lack of charges. The likelihood of these emails being new or noteworthy enough to bring charges against Clinton is probably tiny. If that were the case and the emails could be evaluated, the lack of anything pertinent wouldn't move the needle. If they wait until 10 days before the election to notify their boss/potentially leak to Congress, when there might not be time to evaluate the emails, they can get the maximum impact of the headlines without any substance. The lack of leaks for a month about the emails also seems to point to something more than coincidence, especially given the number of leaks that followed Comey's letter.

Your line of logic has a lot of merit.

Yep but they also want to be in power.. Trump caters for everyone within the Republican Party, the reason why you hear a lot of "but he" in their defence of him.
 
A slight change of direction here. I've always watched Fox or CNN on Sky, but since I have been ill, I have been pretty much confined to my bedroom where I only have Sky on my PS4 and unfortunately that doesn't have Fox or CNN on the news, so I now stream it live. The one thing I've noticed is where the UK version has loads of live music performances the US version has adverts (I much prefer the UK version) but the amount of drug adverts are insane! However, what is even more insane is the fecking amount of time spent disclosing side effects! Jeeez, it's a wonder anyone takes any drug whatsoever! :eek::wenger:

Anyway, sorry for changing the subject but it's just something I noticed and has been astounding me recently.

Yeah, I mentioned it a couple hundred pages ago. Especially the occasional advert having death as a possible side effect. What the hell America?
 
I've seen those regularly. May cause diarrhea, heart attacks, Panic attacks, dry throat, muscle spasms, infertility, cancer, suicidal thoughts, bleeding of the brain or maybe even death.

feck me I only had the flu

It's batshit, they spend more time reading the disclaimer than advertising the drugs themselves.

Sorry for not noticing. :(

EDIT, I may have noticed and even replied, and if so, sorry for forgetting.

It should be basically illegal to advertise prescription drugs directly to the public, for all sorts of reasons.
