    The documents were found during the course of the FBI's investigation into the Democratic presidential nominee's use of a personal email server during her time as secretary of State. The number is almost 50 percent more than the 30,000 work-related documents that Clinton’s lawyers turned over to the State Department in 2014.

    The agency has pledged to release the approximately 14,900 documents and State Department lawyers told District Judge James E. Boasberg on Monday that the agency is “prioritizing” the appraisal of the new emails.

    They need to be released ASAP. The public has a right to know.

    Likely the emails contain information that shouldn't be released. But the public should be made aware of at least the classification of the emails.

    I wouldn't suggest releasing classified information. With all of this information being released to a third party, one must assume that the emails that will be released will not be classified. I only meant that the ones that are going to be released should be released ASAP.

    They should release them right about the same time that they find and release all the strangely missing emails from Colin Powell's personal email server.

    I do wonder what those would tell us about the war on Iraq?

    Now, i haven't read up on Collin Powell. But if he's in the same boat as Hillary, I advocate the same thing. Don't release anything classified, but release the rest.

    He's in the exact same boat, except ALL of his emails have gone missing lol.

    He knows that he advised Clinton to use her own private server, but I don't blame him for not wanting to be in this.

    Condi Rice received the same advice from someone.

    Amazingly though, Powell doesn't know where his State emails are.

    Ladies and Gentlemen, please be warned:

    We are entering an FOIA-evasion zone. Do not engage the information, or you will be erased with it.

    Let me help you out. There is propaganda out there that he did the same thing Hillary did and this is nothing new. Be advised it is a lie.

    And even if he did, that wouldn't justify any inappropriate handling of sensitive material.

    Correct. But it highlights what the majority of Americans now recognize. The email "scandal" has been nothing but a bunch of partisan politics in which the GOP wants her to "do as they say" and "not as they DID".

    They continue to come across as hypocritical and untrustworthy.

    Are politics a factor? Absolutely. A major one.

    That being said, the email issue is worthy of consideration.

    Seemingly in comparison to what they are hearing from Trump and the GOP, the majority of American people don't think so as they don't believe it will affect how they vote come November.

    A person can consider an issue without necessarily voting for the opposition. You seem to be for Clinton. That's your choice to make, like anyone else's.

    But everything is political, and there's no pristine moral high ground in politics.

    If any of Colin Powell's classified emails were on an insecure server, they were never hacked and posted by whistle blowers. Hey, I guess he didn't post anything classified on a server in his bathroom!

    Nope. She fails my initial test where I will begin to consider a candidate.
    (1) I got to believe that you love Jesus.
    (2) I got to believe that you love others.
    (3) You can't be for killing babies in the womb or adults outside the womb.

    She fails on point 3. Trump fails on 1, 2 and 3.

    Exactly and that's why it's silly for evangelicals to act as though a Hillary Clinton Presidency will be the end of the world.

    If it's the end of the world it will perhaps be because God finally gets fed up with the non-Christ honoring Christian attitudes against her and everything non-GOP.

    I don't actually think it will be the end of the world by any stretch. God is in control, as always.

    I don't think Hillary is evil incarnate or anything. She and Trump both have ethical issues, and neither are pure evil.
