After Clinton is elected , she will be so ticked off , I would stay out of her way for the next 4 years

You might not want to be on her staff or her Secret Service detail but the Republicans are certainly coming for her. She's probably going to get two special prosecutors within the first year if she makes it and she isn't going to be able to stop that.

[Spurna]

She's not going to get anything passed through congress and GOP will try and impeach her monthly

 

It's going to be a mess if she wins

IT’S COME TO THIS: DC Attorney: FBI Agents Working To Expose Top DOJ Officials. “DiGenova, who has bureau sources close to the FBI investigation, named Attorney General Loretta Lynch, Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, Assistant Attorney General Peter Kaznick, Assistant Attorney General John P. Carlin, and Assistant Attorney General Leslie Caldwell as senior level staff at DOJ have who have ‘done something that they are going to regret.'”

 

 

Leaks suggest FBI agents felt DOJ blocked their Clinton investigations.

This from a HuffPost contributer.

It took me a long time to write this. I had to dig deep into my being to come up with these words. I’m recanting my endorsement of Hillary Clinton for the presidency.

I’m aware of how vindictive Clintonians can be. I’m not speaking about the Clintons themselves, but of those surrounding them. Perhaps the saying is true: dime con quién andas y te diré quién eres. Your staff, your donors, your surrogates, and those you surround yourself with are a reflection of who you truly are, no? If not, why not curb any unacceptable behavior? Silence, indifference, or inaction is as incriminatory-at least to me.

There has been no repudiation, let alone denunciation, of what was said in those emails-just denial, finger pointing, and doublespeak. To appoint the very same folks who carried out many malicious behaviors to tip the scales for Hillary is just as unpardonable. Why reward unethical behavior? It’s mind-boggling.

So in 2009, there's an email discussion among senior government officials concerning climate change.

 

Hillary's involved.

 

Hillary forwards the entire email thread to "Diane Reynolds" on her private server.

 

"Diane Reynolds" is a pseudonym for Chelsea Clinton.

 

Now look...people are arguing about whether or not that was wrong, because it wasn't classified then even though it was now, what difference does it make now, blah blah blah. But let's step back and look at the larger point: if you are forwarding official government documents to a family member under a pseudonym on a private server, you really need to consider that you just might be doing something wrong.

 

 

That's not my favorite, though. When checking the facts of that email, I found this gem, from "Diane Reyonlds" to "H" (on Feb. 20, 2010):

 

 

Hi Mom- I've a favor/ question for you (and really Secretary Gates). The USNS Comfort that is still here and has done amazing work- a combined mission of navy doctors, civilian doctors and military support staff as you know - its mission is still earthquake only related traumas and needs. Could we expand the mission for at least while its here to work on physical therapy and prosthetics for the trauma patients (a slight expansion)?

 

"Mom, can I borrow the hospital ship?" No, goddammit, it's not a !@#$ing Subaru.

 

More seriously...Chelsea, as a representative of the Clinton Administration, is asking "mom" to exercise her clout as Secretary of State to request the Secretary of Defense alter tasking orders for the US Navy. Ladies and gentlemen: this is how your future Clinton Administration will be run.

A lot of people try to defend her because many of the emails became classified after the fact. I don't buy it one bit. She was the !@#$ing Secretary of State and should have had good enough judgement to know what is sensitive material regardless if it had a "C" on it or not.

Ever wonder ?

 

Why Is the Clinton Foundation Investigation Being Run from Brooklyn?
By Andrew C McCarthy

On Tuesday, the Wall Street Journal’s Devlin Barrett published another eye-opening report about the FBI’s Clinton Foundation investigation. It elaborates on the pitched battle between FBI agents who believe they are building a strong case and Justice Department prosecutors who have thrown cold water on it, erecting roadblocks that have made the agents’ work much more difficult.

 

For reasons worth pausing over, the locus of that battle is the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York, which is headquartered in Brooklyn.

As I explained earlier this week, that is the office that Attorney General Loretta Lynch ran for several years after being appointed by President Obama during his first term — up until Obama appointed her U.S. attorney general. That was Ms. Lynch’s second tenure running the EDNY. She was launched into national prominence when President Bill Clinton made her the EDNY’s U.S. attorney in 1999. So the Clinton Foundation investigation is being overseen by the prosecutors’ office to which Lynch is closest — filled with prosecutors she hired, trained, and supervised.

 

Is it any wonder, then, that the EDNY seems to have broadened its territorial reach?

 

There are 93 federal districts in the United States. Some states are small enough to be single districts; others are big enough to be carved into two districts or more. The federal law of venue (i.e., the district in which a criminal case may be prosecuted) is very elastic. In theory, a case may be brought in any district where some of the criminal conduct, however minimal, took place. In practice, though, the FBI customarily runs its investigation, and the Justice Department files any indictment, in the district where most of the criminal activity occurred.

 

Anchoring an investigation in the district that is the epicenter of the conspiracy, or is at least the locus of significant criminal conduct in the case, is obviously practical. It also serves the Sixth Amendment mandate that criminal cases be tried in the “district wherein the crime shall have been committed.”

 

Let’s think about the investigation of Hillary Clinton and her confederates. The Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation has its main office in midtown Manhattan, while Bill Clinton has long kept an office in the Harlem neighborhood of northern Manhattan. That borough is in the Southern District of New York, not the Eastern District. In addition to Manhattan, the SDNY includes the Bronx and six counties north of the city — three on each side of the Hudson River. Among these is Westchester, where the Clintons’ Chappaqua manse — the primary home of Hillary’s infamous home-brew server — is located. The SDNY is the jurisdiction of my former U.S. attorney’s office, and it is also the locus of the FBI’s New York headquarters.

 

The State Department is, of course, in Washington, as is the Clintons’ second residence. The District of Columbia is thus another place where a great deal of the activity under investigation took place. Little Rock, home of the Clinton presidential library, is in the Eastern District of Arkansas. Platte River Networks, the information-technology firm that serviced the Clintons’ server for a time, and — at the direction of Clinton aides — deleted and attempted to destroy tens of thousands of e-mails, is in Denver, the District of Colorado.

 

It is not my intention to bore you with a geography lesson. It is just that when I think about points of interest in the FBI’s investigations of classified-information offenses and pay-to-play corruption — the Clinton Foundation, the e-mails, Foggy Bottom, Barack Obama’s BlackBerry, the loft bathroom where the server was stashed, etc. — if there is one place on the planet that does not exactly leap to the fore, it is the Eastern District of New York. Besides Brooklyn, the EDNY’s jurisdiction includes Queens, Staten Island, and Long Island.

Don’t misunderstand: I am not suggesting that there is anything illegal about the Justice Department’s anchoring of the Clinton caper in the EDNY. For example, the case features lots of Clinton-clan luxury global travel underwritten by “charitable” donations. One must thus assume that John F. Kennedy Airport in Queens, one of the world’s busiest international airports, is a vector in the investigation.

 

Still, the EDNY is clearly not the center of gravity when we consider the conduct the FBI is examining. Yet it has become the hub of the investigation. That can only be because the Obama Justice Department steered it there.

 

{snip}

 

At one point, as tensions escalated between FBI investigators and the prosecutorial tandem of Main Justice and the EDNY, Barrett reports that a “senior Justice Department official” pointedly rebuked the bureau’s deputy director, Andrew McCabe, for refusing to stand down. Evidently, the unidentified official was shamed into backing off when McCabe shot back, “Are you telling me that I need to shut down a validly predicated investigation?”

 

“Of course not” was the DOJ official’s pregnant reply — which, to my ear, after 20 years of interacting with top DOJ and FBI officials, sounds an awful lot like “Of course.”

 

Here’s a parting thought, an intriguing one that those of us who’ve been so critical of FBI director James Comey would do well to mull over. The FBI didn’t shut down its validly predicated Clinton Foundation investigation. We now know that the bureau plugged along despite fierce headwinds from Washington and Brooklyn, where Loretta Lynch’s favorite prosecutors were vocal naysayers. There can be only one explanation for the agents’ defiant perseverance in the teeth of opposition from the attorney general of the United States, the rest of the top brass at Main Justice, and the United States attorney for the EDNY who was directly in charge of overseeing the investigative efforts.

 

The agents had to know that the director of the FBI had their back.

This is what I don't understand. Why does classification after the fact matter? That's the whole point of having a secure system. So it doesn't get hacked (her server was) and to keep information that becomes sensitive in house.

 

So now we have classified documents on Chelsea's PC and probably sex pervert Anthony Wiener's laptop. It's OK though because it wasn't classified at the time.

 

Where did this standard come from? It came from her. First it was I didn't want to use 2 cell phones and when that didn't fly, she came up with this one that works quite well for the lemmings.

 

There was another thread talking about Democrat strategies. They missed Bill and Hillary's favorite. Drip, drip drip, and move the goal posts. 2 cell phones, then it becomes never sent or received anything classified by her, then it becomes never sent or received stuff that was classified at the time, to never anything that was "marked classified".

 

I have sold and implemented eMail Management systems at Fortune 50 companies, Nuclear Power plants, and government. They take this VERY seriously. This whole personal server/send sensative info from it/ didn't know the rules would have gotten people escorted out of the building by my customers.

 

She knew the rules. She was trained and signed off on knowing them. She's a Ivy League educated lawyer. How could she not understand the rules??????

 

No excuse (unless you're a Clinton, then there are plenty).

 

If she wins, she will become the Excuse-Maker-in-Chief.

It doesn't. The point SHOULD be that government records are being distributed outside of the government.

 

The status reports for my project aren't classified...and I can't begin to tell you the measure of unholy shitfire that would rain down on me if I forwarded one to my wife. There is not a single government worker I know who isn't royally pissed off about this whole thing.

Besides that DC, you're a little person, so rules apply to you.

She knew the rules and that she was breaking them. The fact is that the Clintons know they are above the law. And if the press had any shred of ethics, they would have expose this along time ago.
