no, but that is what most cable stations concluded. It did state that some of her top secret emails were compromised by foreign actors.

"We analyzed the Department’s declination decision according to the same analytical standard that we applied to other decisions made during the investigation. We did not substitute the OIG’s judgment for the judgments made by the Department, but rather sought to determine whether the decision was based on improper considerations, including political bias. We found no evidence that the conclusions by the prosecutors were affected by bias or other improper considerations; rather, we determined that they were based on the prosecutors’ assessment of the facts, the law, and past
department practice."
Summary VII
"There were clearly tensions and disagreements in a number of important
areas between Midyear agents and prosecutors. However, we did not find
documentary or testimonial evidence that improper considerations, including
political bias, directly affected the specific investigative decisions discussed below, or that the justifications offered for these decisions were pretextual. We recognize that these text and instant messages cast a cloud over the FBI’s handling of the Midyear investigation and the investigation’s credibility. But our review did not find documentary or testimonial evidence that these political views directly affected the specific investigative decisions that we reviewed in this chapter"
PG 149
"We sought to determine whether the declination decision was based on improper considerations, including political bias. We both looked for direct evidence of improper considerations and analyzed the justifications offered for the decision to determine whether they were a pretext for improper, but unstated, considerations. We did not substitute the OIG’s judgment for the judgments made by the Department. We found that the prosecutors’ decision was based on their assessment of the facts, the law, and past Department practice in cases involving these statutes."
PG 261
A couple... from the report.
I'm not denying there was obvious political bias among members of the FBI but its hard to open a new case on the grounds of "deep state" political bias conspiracy when the report concludes that didn't have an impact on the investigation.

The fact you're still "with HER" says a lot .
The fact you dont care says more, on the other hand you would fit right in with the FBI.

Word is Bill and Hillary was seen flying together, all lovey dovey, on a real commercial airplane in full view amongst the general public. Together!
That says to me that Hillary is running for President in 2020 ... I hope so.
I also read last week or so that Elizabeth Warren just bought a dog. A dog!

So what line of reasoning did you use for your incredible
clairvoyance in the 2016 presidential election, E.F. Hutton?
Probably something like Trump quit using condoms with hookers
in 2014, so he must be getting really serious about a WH run.

Hi Mike... I think Lizzie named the dog Puppyhantis or was it Fire Water? Maybe it was High Cheekbones? If the dog was white, Igloo is a good name too.

So according to the IG - it's legal to set up an unsecured private server to conduct classified official government business. I just got my clearance reinstated and according to my training, what Hillary did was against the law.
