Clinton email headache is about to get worse
The Hill ^ | May 28th, 2016 | By Julian Hattem

Posted on 05/28/2016 1:14:38 PM PDT by Mariner

Hillary Clinton’s email headache is about to get even worse.

A scathing inspector general’s report this week was just the first in what is likely to be a series of official actions related to her private server stemming from the FBI, a federal courthouse and Capitol Hill.

Clinton’s presidential campaign has failed to quiet the furor over the issue, which has dogged her for more than a year.

In the next few weeks — just as the likely Democratic presidential nominee hopes to pivot towards a general election — it will face its toughest scrutiny yet.

“All of that feeds into this overarching problem of public distrust of her,” said Grant Reeher, a political science professor at Syracuse University.

“To put it in slang terms, she’s got a pretty deeply held street rep at this point. This fits the street rep,” he added.

Anyone else in these United States would be in federal custody, without bail and awaiting trial on National Security charges.

I dare to hope this may actually ruin Hillary for good, but she’s gotten away with so many felonies, it would be a total surprise if she finally gets what she richly deserves.

John Bentel goes under the bus:

Spikey has a new column on the hapless Clinton spearcatcher, retired State IT guy John Bentel:

So I guess maybe the ten or twelve screaming fans of hers might look a bit closer?

No matter what they outcome of her criminal behavior, she can still be president, if that is the will of the people on election day. She can serve as president from a prison cell just like many do in banana republics.

Some nonsense from the article:

"Legal experts appear skeptical that the Justice Department would hand down a criminal charge against Clinton, due to both the high legal hurdles involved and the intense political scrutiny surrounding the likely Presidential nominee."

High legal hurdles???? Give me a break. Given just the 22 TS emails this would be an open and shut case if Hillary was, for instance, a Sub-Swabbie. And it isn't political scrutiny that is in play here it is political protection and favoritism.

I remember having a document inspection once upon a time during my enlisted years in which all was properly in order in our vault. We had the right number of copies, the right number printed on the document. All were accounted for.

Until the inspector discovered an ‘unnamed officer’ in our unit had made himself a copy to have at the division office, and it wasn’t part of our count.

The pucker factor was nearing max on the official pucker scale. I was TOTALLY unaware of the existence of the copy...but peripherally responsible, I suppose, since we had the original. The officer was an honest, good man, so it never got to me. The offender never went past major and was fortunate not to have been jailed, but they believed him that it was under control at all times and in the division vault.

This was only a SECRET document.

Long before that, Hillary's security clearances should have been stamped "REVOKED FOREVER!"

Ah, gee, that's so unfair. Running for president should give you a pass for any criminal activity you've been involved in!

Nope. She may not be eligible:

Yup, multiple felonies over decades and democrats just wave them all off and try to somehow blame republicans. That’s what we’re up against.

The second staffer who raised concerns told the inspector general that Bentel responded that the mission of the office “is to support the Secretary and instructed the staff never to speak of the Secretary’s personal email system again.”

He needs to serve right along with her in the same cell, or would that be considered cruel and unusual punishment?
