Midknight Review -- new and revised: Comey could not tell the nation "what they had" in the newly discovered emails. They did not have the necessary warrants, but now . . . . .

Sunday and before the end of the weekend, it is being reported that the DOJ has given warrants to the FBI for opening the emails found-and-reported the end of this past week. Understand that if some of these emails were on Anthony Weiner's laptop, it is safe to assume that the FBI already had the warrants needed to open and read those emails.

Trump, on the campaign trail, has charged that there are some 650,000 reasons to doubt the Clintons.** If he is talking about emails, the number is scary big. If the number is something that he simply made up, that is good, as well. Why? Because Trump's charge, true or false, should force someone in the know, to tell us how many emails are in this latest trove. If that total is 100's of thousands, Hillary has a huge problem.

** This is now being reported as "630,000" and a number of news outlets have made this report. No wonder Comey reopened the investigation. This far far exceeds the totals Hillary gave to us, back in early 2015. Its a long way from 55,000 to 630,000.

A final thought: Did Hillary just give the FBI permission to reveal the subject matter of the newly discovered emails?

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
