The big question is will MSNBC still be around next week?

How can one be above the law when the entire nyc justice system is against one man?? Or it could mean you were bs’ing the whole time.

Trump was right. I'm sick of all this winning😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

They should release everybody currently serving time for miss handling classified documents. As an Air Force veteran who held a classified security clearance while in service, I am appallled that this criminal gets to go free with no consequences - and they say no one is above the law - what a bunch of crap!!!
