Does China suddenly have unrestricted emigration?

Famous con law prof, Akil Amar, on Comey and emails:

Attorneys general have always been law-trained, and so have all the dedicated civil servants of both parties who occupy top positions in the Justice Department. By contrast, most FBI officers have no legal training, and these officers, while typically earnest and hardworking, are disproportionately right of center. Unlike America’s first AG and every AG since then, America’s first FBI director, the infamous J. Edgar Hoover, was not law-trained. True, Comey himself is a lawyer, but not a great one. He knows enough law to be dangerous but not enough law—especially not enough constitutional law—to be sound or wise. He fails to understand his proper place in the constitutional system, as one carefully designed cog within a larger piece of legal and constitutional machinery. There is no evidence that he is a hack or a clown. But there is reason to think that he’s a bureaucratic blockhead and constitutional lightweight who (as with many bureaucrats) fails to understand the proper limits of his authority, formal and informal. In particular, he somehow sees himself as a freestanding and independent constitutional officer positioned between the president and Congress. He is no such thing. He is a statutory officer entirely within the executive branch of government headed by the president of the United States and no one else—a statutory officer nested within a Justice Department that also answers directly to the president as a constitutional matter.

Comey decided Oct 7 not to report the Russia stuff because it was too close to the election

Really should be fired ASAP, don't care about any political ramifications, guy is a complete clown

FBI Director James Comey argued privately that it was too close to Election Day for the United States government to name Russia as meddling in the U.S. election and ultimately ensured that the FBI's name was not on the document that the U.S. government put out, a former FBI official tells CNBC.
Are you serious bro?

Nope! The takeaway is clearly that real America is rejecting liberal values. Duh. Gotta love the logical converse - use real Americans as spokespeople and we will proudly keep buying your ****ty product.
How's the Trump brand doing?

I don't know of any emigration restrictions aside from those placed on government officials and family of government officials.

I could be wrong but what emigration restrictions are you referring to?

Thiel is literally saying that we should ignore Trump's personal characteristics and just vote for him. Dude's a safe ignore.

Remember when Subfallen said this dude was some groundbreaking abstract thinker that the rest of us were just too stupid to understand the brilliance of, and we said, no, he's just a moron who struck it rich in the mid-2000s?
Huh? I never called anyone stupid. I respect people's right to focus on narrow moral agendas to the exclusion of everything else going on in the world.

However, it is blindingly obvious---if you actually listen to his remarks or read his writing---that he is an incredibly well-informed and strategic thinker.

Not everyone has to share your exact values, you know.

I don't know if any are but I would guess his most fertile ground is better educated white suburban women. Republican leaners.

That is my complete guess.

None. Clinton's polling is within noise of her all time highs.
