Back in October I told you that Hillary Clintonâs email troubles were anything but over, and that the scandal over her misuse of communications while she was Secretary of State was sure to get worse. Sure enough, EmailGate continues to be a thorn in the side of Hillaryâs presidential campaign and may have just entered a new, potentially explosive phase with grave ramifications, both political and legal.
The latest court-ordered dump of her email, just placed online by the State Department, brings more troubles for Team Hillary. This release of over 3,000 pages includes 66 âUnclassifiedâ messages that the State Department subsequently determined actually were classified; however, all but one of those 66 were deemed Confidential, the lowest classification level, while one was found to be Secret, bringing the total of Secret messages discovered so far to seven. In all, 1,340 Hillary emails at State have been reassessed as classified.
There are gems here. Itâs hard to miss the irony of Hillary expressing surprise about a State Department staffer using personal email for work, which the Secretary of State noted in her own personal email. More consequential was Hillaryâs ordering a staffer to send classified talking points for a coming meeting via a non-secure fax machine, stripped of their classification markings. This appears to be a clear violation of Federal law and the sort of thing that is a career-ender, or worse, for normals. The chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee termed that July 2011 incident âdisturbing,â and so it is to anyone acquainted with U.S. Government laws and regulations regarding the handling of classified material.

Espionage affects every American.
We are all less safe because of Hillary Clinton.
Ahh! The misguided belief that mere exposure of wrongdoing will bring justice. "Move on".
IOWs Hillary has her own private little network spying on the NSA for her own uses and one would presume they spy on other Federal agencies as well.
What usually happens to spies?

Sigint from more than one email.. I am thinking close to half of them :p
She honestly needs the Rosenburg treatment.
I would pose the issue differently.
Faced with de facto evidence and strong precedents as recent as his own attack on General Petraeus, does Obama dare not to prosecute if the FBI produces a criminal charge?
More than answers the question as to why in the world people would donate hundreds of millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation and pay the two Clintons ungodly sums for a half hour speech.
Seems Blumenthal was the go-between.

Clinton Foundation advisers double-duty counseling Hillary on Benghazi / By Geoff Earle, NYP, 5/29
WASHINGTON â Hillary Rodham Clinton associate Sidney Blumenthal was drawing a $10,000 monthly salary from the Clinton Foundation (hired to advance Pres Bills legacy) while he was penning e-mails to her at the State Department about Benghazi, it was revealed Thursday.
Blumenthal is a longtime Clinton adviser, but her efforts to bring him to the State Department in 2009 were thwarted by the Obama administration. After Clinton lost in 2008, Blumenthal was placed on the foundationâs payroll at the request of Bill Clinton, Politico reported. The publication cited insiders who grumbled that Blumenthal got the job as a favor.
Blumenthal also is a paid consultant to American Bridge and Media Matters â two Democratic groups affiliated with Clinton's 2016 efforts.
Blumenthalâs numerous dispatches to Clinton figure prominently in the State Departmentâs recent release of e-mails related to the deadly terror attack on the US compound in Benghazi, Libya. Clinton forwarded many of the emails along to her colleagues at State.
Blumenthal also advised two companies seeking to do deals in Libya --- deals conditioned on the fall of Moammar Khadafy, The New York Times reported. Blumenthal has been subpoenaed to appear before a House panel on Benghazi.

We can’t have laws for elites and laws for the rest of us... it’ll destroy the country.

Either what Hillary did is OK for everyone to do - or it’s NOT OK for any of us to do.
I agree! The problem is that the Rat Party (and,of course,the Clintons) don't. Why do you think that Cosby's headed to prison while BillyBob is headed to his next million dollar speaking engagement?
You're right - one more reason to vote EVERY DEMOCRAT OUT OF OFFICE... we need to stop these criminals.
The first time I EVER saw and heard Bill Clinton I thought of a sleazy used car salesman. But these grifters have reached for the stars. They’ve been selling America to the highest bidder from day one.
They both deserve the noose!
