Provided and what is publicly known, based on the review of all these emails. Investigators read every email, looked at the key players, looked at the security issues, including what it means to use a private server, and then came to a judgment that i thought was quite clear in the way it stated it. Number one, there was not the evidence to support the bringing of federal charges. Full stop. But number two, he went further and said this was not a close call, and any reasonable prosecutor would not go forward. Major yet there is this ongoing debate that people who have been in lesser positions within the government have been charged for lesser offenses. Is that a valid point of view, a valid criticism of the conclusion comey reached . Eric i think it is a valid question to raise.

John spontaneous humor abounding in Atlantic City. Welcome to another day of campaign combat in the president ial race. This afternoon, Hillary Clinton staged a rally beneath the faded sign of trump plaza, one of hit Donald Trumps shuttered casinos in Atlantic City, where she laid out a case against his Business Record. Later tonight, donald trump has a campaign. We will talk about both of those events throughout the show. First, a lot of focus has turned to the republican nominees response to the fbis response yesterday over not recommending action against Hillary Clinton. And director james comeys takedown of clintons probity regarding practices. Both put out videos featuring comey, and the quickest action to come out of congress in many years.

Now could see that as a way of trying to make things more understandable to us. But i think it actually mystifies and obscure was is really going on. So the algorithms that zeynep was describing which are very powerful, but we could hear from her description that they are basically reproducing the things that theyre operating with, are parameters that have been introduced by us. So and many of those are stereotypes. Rose more dns. Mor
