In the series House of Cards, Claire Underwood is a highly ambitious, ruthless woman who will lie, cheat and steal to get what she wants and crush anyone in her way. People die around the Underwoods. She reminds one of another woman currently in the news.
A federal judge has exploded over the endless delaying of the Obama regime's releasing of Hillary Clinton's emails:
An irritated federal judge Thursday put the Hillary Clinton email scandal into stark terms, grilling the State Department on a pattern of delayed document releases that has turned a possible bureaucratic logjam into a major problem for the leading Democratic presidential contender.And uh oh....there's a two month gap in Hillary's emails at a particularly curious time:U.S. District Court Judge Richard Leon, known for his blunt manner, said he simply did not understand why the State Department has dragged its feet on responses for emails in requests to the Freedom of Information Act.
“Now, any person should be able to review that in one day — one day,” the judge said, examining a request for just over 60 emails. “Even the least ambitious bureaucrat could do this.”
Leon articulated what has been a major concern of State Department critics who contend that the agency is dragging out responses to FOIA requests to protect Clinton, who served as secretary of state during Obama’s first term. The judge’s complaints echoed those of Hill Republicans, who have accused the agency of slow-walking document requests in its Benghazi investigation to protect Clinton.
Among the hundreds of emails released by the State Department from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s private account, there is a conspicuous two-month gap. So far, there are no emails between Clinton and her State Department staff during May and June 2012, a period of escalating violence in Libya leading up to the September 11 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi that left four Americans dead.There were events taking place that demanded attention from the then Secretary of State:A State Department spokesman told The Daily Beast that for the year 2012, only those emails related to the security of the consulate or to the U.S. diplomatic presence in Libya were made public and turned over to a House committee investigating the fatal Benghazi assault. But if that’s true, then neither Clinton nor her staff communicated via email about the escalating dangers in Libya during those two crucial months. There were three attacks during that two-month period, including one that targeted the consulate. (Of course, email isn’t the only or even the preferred way State Department officials communicate about sensitive issues—especially if one of those officials is using a private server ill equipped to handle classified information.)
Regarding the security situation in Libya, there was plenty for Clinton and her team to discuss via email. On May 22, 2012, the International Red Cross’s Benghazi office was hit by rocket-propelled grenades.Are we to believe that Hillary sent no emails during those two months? Interestingly, the missing emails intersect with Human Abedin:“The attack on the International Red Cross was another attack that also involved us and threats to the compound there in Benghazi,” testified Lieutenant Colonel Andrew Wood, a senior State Department security chief in Libya, (PDF) before the House Oversight Committee in October 2012.
Then, on June 6, an improvised explosive device detonated outside of the U.S. consulate, ripping a 12-foot-wide hole in the compound’s wall and prompting officials to release a public warning on “the fluid security situation in Libya.”
Yet the State Department has not produced any emails to or from Clinton about the improvised bomb.

People have gone to prison for much more ‘circumstantial’ evidence. That she remains a candidate for the presidency tells you all you need to know about the current state of our nation.
During this period, Hillary was on a top-secret mission....working trade agreements, pony-show rules, circus clown regulations, infield fly rule standards....with North Korea. None of this can be told until the President leaks (it’s a double-double leak) that we’ve been in secret talks with North Korea for six years.
I always thought that the Underwoods were modeled after the Clintons.
The 86,400 minute gap.
This country has a big glaring fault. It won’t jail members of the ruling elite. They enjoy special privileges and protection. They shouldn’t. One law for all.
I want this washed-up old b!tch in jail.
AMEN to that! Until these crooks (most of Obama Admin high officials, past and present) are arrested, everything else is just posturing. Every day that goes by with elected officials and judges complaining and investigating but NOT arresting, their credibility looks worse and worse.
I LONG for the day when Obama would be confronted with armed officers and the one in front says, “Mr. Obama, you're under arrest!” Only a dream of course.
Her top secret mission was to arrange for the hostage-taking of Ambassador Stevens so Mohammed Morsi could use him to gain the release of the Blind Sheik from U.S. custody. This was Morsi’s #1 CAMPAIGN PLEDGE to Egypt, to gain his release. With the American presidential election 8 weeks away, this was potentially Clinton’s last chance to help Morsi with freeing the Blind Sheik. If Romney won the election there’d be no chance of such a release.
I spent the last two weeks with my Democrat relatives.
I can tell you that the enthusiasm for Hillary Clinton is near zero.
During Bush 43’s second term, all the talk on the left was of “perp-walking Rove, Cheney, Libby (and anybody else they could lay hands on) out of the White House”.
Let me the first (or one of the first) to perp-walk SWMNBN into jail. Enhanced interrogation is mandatory.
W’s aide, Scooter Libby went to Jail for saying “I don’t know,” to the FBI during the left’s hysteria about Ugandan yellowcake uranium and Iraq.
“This country has a big glaring fault. It won’t jail members of the ruling elite.”
Not quite true.
What do Elliot Richardson, Conrad Black, HR Haldeman, Oliver North, John Erlichman, and Charles Colson have in common?
On the other hand, what do Lois Lerner, Jon Corzine, Valerie Jarrett, Hillary Clinton, et al, have in common?
So now we know she waits until the last minute to demand campaign cash from the ones to whom the regime gave the anti-aircraft missiles.
The game of R’s and D’s ... the playbill writes itself.
These emails aren’t missing. They are out there somewhere with the people she sent or received them to/from. Perhaps if it actually becomes (as it should) a criminal investigation an offer of immunity to low level lackeys would bring them forth.
gain the release of the Blind Sheik
I believe it is either that or his death was to hide a transaction of weapons that were funneled to some extremists.
Yes, but where is the outrage from Republicans about this?
