With the FBI, Congress and the courts all closing in on Hillary Clinton for mishandling classified material on her private email server, one of her longtime advisers has recommended that she hire an outside legal counsel and consider cutting a deal to avoid criminal charges.

According to this adviser, who spoke to ED KLEIN CONFIDENTIAL, time is of the essence. Contrary to published reports that the FBI investigation could drag on for months, he believes it could wrap up as soon as the end of this year...“From what I know of the case,” the adviser said, “Hillary is extremely vulnerable, and there is going to be blood in the water. The investigators are looking for weak links to get to the bottom of what went on with national security emails. And they will find one.”

no deal she must go all in (jail) or we have two sets of laws one for regular people one for elites-things like that breed contempt and street justice.

There is only one fish higher in the chain than Big Tuna Hillary and that is our beloved President. Perhaps Hillary is counting on having some leverage that will lead to a Presidential Pardon. She knows all about those. What were Hillary and Mr. Obama discussing the night of Sept. 11, 2012 while Benghazi was going up in flames? I wonder if there was an email trail that disappeared.

Hillary’s cronies better step forward now to get a deal, because if Hillary is first in the bag all her cronies will pay the price for her immunity and go down hard and fast.

Hanging or lethal injection.

The deal would probably go like this:

"Okay, guys. Seeing as how I am going to be the next and first female president of the United States,
I will make a deal with you. Let me pay the piddly fine and I will give you anything you want ..."

Begone Hillary!

"Okay, guys. Seeing as how I am going to be the next and first female president of the United States, I will make a deal with you. Let me pay the piddly fine and I will give you anything you want ..."

Yes. Everything she's ever promised has been based on her being President.

“Don’t want to give ‘er no stinkin’ deal! Jail baby, JAIL!”

I could tolerate her cutting a deal providing it involved exposing the goods on Buckwheat.

I just subscribed to his newsletter and this came in the mail. Didn’t know it was an old piece, but I doubt many FReepers saw it.

She is gambling on the GOP [angering] Trump and his backtracking on his no-third-party pledge.

Hillary stands no chance against Trump in the General election. We know that, and will not go for anyone who might lose to her. Even knowing, as we do, that Trump isn’t exactly the second coming of Milton Friedman.

Bad bet.

There is nobody above her that she can flip

You don't believe she has dirt, documented dirt, on Obama?

Iranian paper trail on ValJar?

[Political Junkie Too]

I don't believe that she'd do it. Or, more likely, it would be like the end scene of Three Days of the Condor, where whatever she tries will be suppressed by the Obama administration, perhaps with extreme prejudice.
