Even though President Donald Trump has seen his approval ratings drop to all-time lows, the commander in chief might relish the fact that Americans view him slightly better than his former Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton.
The former secretary of state notched a 39 percent favorable rating, 2 points lower than Trump, in Bloomberg’s National Poll results released Tuesday, the second-worst score for Clinton in the almost eight years the poll has followed her.

and yet he still beat clinton, still beats clinton, and is more popular than clinton.
An undeniable fact.

Move forward when most of the people we elect are not looking out for our best interests in who they hire, and what they vote/don't vote for? How?

This is all the proof we need to strip their amendment right of freedom of the press, because theyre clearly not anymore. They've brainwashed countless liberals against their own nation.
"Our liberty cannot be guarded but by the freedom of the press, nor that be limited without danger of losing it." --Thomas Jefferson to John Jay, 1786.
Whoever would overthrow the liberty of a nation must begin by subduing the freeness of speech.
Benjamin Franklin
The freedom of the press is one of the great bulwarks of liberty, and can never be restrained but by despotic governments.
George Mason
If I lived in China or even Russia, or any totalitarian country, Maybe I could understand some of these illegal injunctions. ... But somewhere I read of the freedom of assembly. Somewhere I read of the freedom of speech. Somewhere I read of the freedom of the press. Somewhere I read that the greatness of America is the right to protest for right.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Both the history and language of the First Amendment support the view that the press must be left free to publish news, whatever the source, without censorship, injunctions, or prior restraints.
In the First Amendment, the Founding Fathers gave the free press the protection it must have to fulfill its essential role in our democracy. The press was to serve the governed, not the governors. The Government's power to censor the press was abolished so that the press would remain forever free to censure the Government. The press was protected so that it could bare the secrets of government and inform the people. Only a free and unrestrained press can effectively expose deception in government.
Justice Hugo Black in his 1971 opinion in New York Times v. United States, SCOTUS

Collusion by whom?
She admitted herself afterwards the meeting was wrong,
once the story escaped control.
Then Comey admitted under oath that she was unethical.
"No phones, no pictures"
Your blind and intentionally so.
Right! After the electoral college Certified the Presidential Election was won by the great Donald Trump, Loretta Lynch (in her own way) begged for forgiveness.
(Here is where I would do a copy/paste of her words, but ATS Admin said that's a breach of the T&C.)
Source: www.washingtontimes.com...
But a month later, she made this video calling for riots, and bloodshed! What a troubled soul she must have.

Could you explain what from the emails you find to be wrong exactly? Because I looked at each link and unless I missed something, nothing from the emails themselves looks "wrong." The meeting on the other hand, arguably very wrong.

So, you think this all means it would be OK for the press to out an undercover agent in a dangerous situation... or provide an enemy with locations of US military? ... and if they were told not to that would mean there was a danger to the freedom of US people?
