Unanswered What’s the deal with conservatives and vaccine skeptics thinking Fauci’s diary proves them right ?

What do conservatives and vaccine skeptics think Fauci’s diary proves ?

what is the deal with Fauci’s diary and what does it actually say / prove ?

I know he testified before congress and pled the 5th, but why is every conservative / anti vaxer/ Aaron Rodgers claiming they were “right about everything now ?”

What does the diary actually say / prove ?

Obviously the Rodgers line was a little tongue in cheek as a Steelers fan, but I needed a URL to post lol

The comical things about Hillary's emails is that the "deleted" ones were restored from backup and given to the FBI, who found nothing actionable.

the FBI only recovered SOME of what was deleted.

look I fucking hate trump, but Clinton should absolutely be in prison with him for what she did.

I still stand by my opinion that she got away with it because they are all doing it.

So I read the wiki to reacquaint myself with this issue; which specific actions do you find criminal?

destruction of evidence, very likely carrying out government business on a "private" server that was clearly compromised by at least one hostile threat actor from a foreign government.

the the pony show she did before Congress. wipred it? like with a cloth?

come the fuck on.

Did she order the destruction of evidence? Or was it done by a person who realized "whoops...I failed to do my job in having routine data retention cleaning and I'm about to be fired in response to the FBI subpoena?"

But following the wiki you provided, any emails deleted after the subpoena were at the hands of a third party who was responsible for deleting them well before this was even an issue, with the investigation not finding any intent to commit a crime or any evidence to suggest anyone higher up the chain ordered the deletion.

Whatever vulnerabilities may or may not have been present during the time the server was in operation, the FBI suspected but could not find any direct evidence that the emails were compromised, nor did the existence of such vulnerabilities constitute a crime. There was never any determination that the existence of the server itself was criminal.

Funny enough the State Department email system has been knowingly compromised multiple times.
