Maybe I made the mistake of making a joke about my English. It's just fine.


Xaanka, it does not mention Seth Rich. Seth Rich was killed this year. The e-mails of concern were 1 year and 5 months before.

It doesn't say teach a lesson, it's says 'make an example of'. I am aware of what teaching someone a lesson means. It's not an obscure phrase and I don't live under a bridge covered by the arctic ice fields.

I find that the phrasing of the sentence in question:

"I'm definitely for making an example of a suspected leaker whether or not we have any real basis for it"

actually becomes very odd once you take it to be about murder.

Example 1: "I'm definitely for making an example of a suspected leaker".

Ignoring the fact I personally require a little more proof, even if it's just circumstantial, the sentence does not become odd if you take it to be about killing.

"I'm definitely for killing a suspected leaker". Perfectly comfortable wording.

Now add that little extra to the end [[[[[[ THE POINT OF MY POST IS HERE ]]]]]:

"I'm definitely for killing a suspected leaker whether or not we have any real basis for it".

That does not make sense any more.

"Gosh, Robby I'm cool with murdering and stuff but only if we have a real basis!" "But John of course! We're all about that! First we check if we have a real basis for killing, to make sure it's a moral killing, and only then do we proceed".

It makes plenty of sense

"We are going to kill this guy who we think might be a leaker, even if he isn't a leaker"
all they're saying is that they're going to kill the guy anyway, whether he is a leaker or not, just in case.

that's literally what the email says. except switch "kill" for "teach a lesson" which is american english slang for killing or roughing up someone.

also he died not too long after this.
Drain the swamp is probably the single greatest unofficial campaign slogan of any presidential campaign ever.

"I'm a Dole Man" song doesn't come close.

Should Trump have made "Drain the swamp" the official slogan from day 1? I guess he couldn't because we hadn't established the corruption yet.

Ya, but it does establish precedent and it also reveals that, contrary to this phony "everything is Russia" narrative they keep peddling, leakers are actually the problem.
If Russia is hacking data in our country then that means their can be future threats to American data, so it is concerns for generalized safety to our countries records

There's actually no evidence that any of the leaks came from Russia, contrary to the bs hitlary is spouting about 17 agencies confirming it. Only two of those agencies have addressed it, and both said it looks like something Russia would do, but they are uncertain of whether it actually was.

I don't doubt for a second that russia is hacking the US every single day, but it's far more likely that leaks came from insiders astonished at the dnc corruption than hacks of a foreign power.
