FOR THOSE WHO MAY NOT HAVE COME ACROSS THIS.
The streets of cyberspace are awash with anti-Hillary stuff; some of it is questionable but much of it isn't. This is an official enquiry, as it happened. There is much, much more of it, if anyone cares to look.

Trey Gowdy, Special Prosecutor - has a nice ring to it.
What sets him apart is that he's entirely serious in a way that most of us in the tragic Old World can't manage any more. We've ironised, infantilised and relativised ourselves irredeemably, everyone knows that no-one really means it and everyone knows that Truth isn't out there.
I doubt there is much in the way of lightsome wit around the Gowdy table but it is shocking, actually, to see this sort of rooted intent. There's a speech you can see on YouTube that he gave, an address to students, which provides a clue to his moral centre. Wish I had one.
Yes, anachronistic; maybe he can revive the Rule of Law, an unintended and unforeseen Trump consequential, don't beat yourself up, mr bungalow bill, given his platform you would display his fixity of purpose; as for renegotiating a Reality of Meaning, well, we do our best, here, you, in your small corner and I, in mine.
That looks like a case of "thick brain versus thick skin"
Shame he does not apply such potent intellect to his own irrationalities, e.g. on abortion. But then that is a common blind spot for the American conservative intellectual.
Was it Thomas Dewey, previously, in the States, mr mike?
Trouble is, of course, that Uncle Sam's MediaMinster sees an attack on any branch of the Spunk Family as an attack on itself, which it is. The Washington Post, insanely, is calling for the election result to be reversed and will, I am sure, invent some dirt on Special Agent Gowdy.
I don't know his views on abortion, indeed, I don't know my own, mr tdg, except that I have been firmly in what are claimed to be the only two tenable camps.
Mr I and Mr Tdg - I was also an agnostic on abortion until I read the thinking of Robert P. George, a Princeton legal philosopher, in the matter and also of Elizabeth Anscombe, the ferocious analytic philosopher. Both Catholics those -and Trey is a Southern evangelical - but I find their logic formidable and I have yet to come up with much in the way of counter-argument. I am a Catholic atheist with residual sympathies so I am not to be trusted, but for an honest debate I recommend that duo as the very best (that is, the most cogent) of the anti-abortion side. Too often the pro-abortion lobby takes on the weakest of its opponents.
