CLINTON INTERVIEWED BY FBI OVER PRIVATE EMAIL USE
WASHINGTON: The FBI interviewed Hillary Clinton on Saturday about her use of personal email while serving as secretary of state, an issue that has dogged her campaign to become America's first female President. Questions over Clinton's use of a private account and homebrew server during her time as America's top diplomat have fueled voter concerns that she is not trustworthy. An aide said the interview at FBI headquarters in Washington lasted about 3.5 hours, following previous such interviews with Clinton aides, including close confidante Huma Abedin. It comes about three weeks before the Democratic National Convention is set to crown Clinton as the party's official White House nominee. The interview signals that the FBI's protracted criminal investigation could be entering its final phase, with a long- awaited decision nearing. Clinton has apologized for exclusively using a private email account and her own server during her time as secretary of state from 2009 to 2013. Opponents argue that this breached rules about protecting classified documents from cyber attack and may have amounted to a crime.
TRUMP DRAWS IRE FOR ANTI- CLINTON TWEET WITH STAR OF DAVID SHAPE
WASHINGTON: Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump sparked outrage Saturday after calling rival Democrat Hillary Clinton corrupt in a tweet featuring the Jewish Star of David symbol. The six- pointed star was superimposed on a pile of $ 100 bills with the message "most corrupt candidate ever!"— which many took as a potent anti- Semitic reference to stereotypes about Jews and money. "When I see Trump's anti- Muslim scare tactics or anti- Jewish optics, it's all evil and needs to be named," responded one Twitter user. Trump later deleted the tweet and replaced it with a new image that used a circle instead of a star. The original tweet is still posted on various media outlets. The tweet is Trump's latest remark to prompt accusations of bigotry, having previously called for banning Muslims from entering the United States, and describing Mexicans as rapists and criminals.
