Zombie Time at Campaign Hillary: Paglia on Trump’s real strength & Clinton’s fatal sleepwalking
Salon.com ^ | 2 June 2016 | Camille Paglia

Posted on 06/02/2016 8:15:12 AM PDT by Senator Goldwater

It’s zombie time at campaign Hillary. Behold the dead men walking! It was with strangely slow, narcotized numbness that the candidate and her phalanx of minions and mouthpieces responded to last week’s punishing report by the State Department’s Inspector General about her email security lapses. Do they truly believe, in the rosy alternate universe of Hillaryland, that they can lie their way out of this?

Of course, they’re relying as usual on the increasingly restive mainstream media to do their dirty work for them. If it were a Republican in the crosshairs, Hillary’s shocking refusal to meet with the Inspector General (who interviewed all four of the other living Secretaries of State of the past two decades) would have been the lead item flagged in screaming headlines from coast to coast. Let’s face it—the genuinely innocent do not do pretzel twists like this to cover their asses.

Trump’s boisterous, uncensored id makes a riveting contrast to Hillary’s plodding, joyless superego. Listening to her leaden attempts to tell rehearsed jokes is collective torture. Hillary is not now, nor has she ever been, a member of the Comedy Party.

Good Lord, Camille really despise Clinton today, doesn’t she? Well, let’s see what she writes after Bernie gets screwed in Philly. I’m sure she will fall in lockstep as all good Leninists do.

FBI: Hillary Clinton to face Criminal Indictment for Email Abuse ‘Very Soon’
Santa Monica Observer ^ | June 1, 2016 | By David Ganezer
Posted on 6/1/2016, 9:36:30 AM by drewh

A journalist employed by liberal Huffington Post reported that the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) will recommend that the Department of Justice file a Federal criminal complaint, indicting U.S. Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Frank Hugenard is a political scientist, public speaker and freelance contributor to the Huff Po. He had his story removed by HuffPo editors and his account disabled without explanation. His article bore the title: “”Hillary Clinton to be Indicted On Federal Racketeering Charges” It quickly went viral before being removed.

FBI Director James Comey will present a recommendation to Loretta Lynch, Attorney General and head of the U.S. Department of Justice, that includes a compelling argument that the Clinton Foundation is an ongoing criminal enterprise engaged in money laundering and soliciting bribes in exchange for political, policy and legislative favors to individuals, corporations and even governments both foreign and domestic.

Huguenard, a Bernie Sanders supporter, says that he has sources within the FBI. They say the Bureau will recommend that the DOJ file Racketeering charges against Mrs. Clinton.

The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) is a United States Federal Law passed in 1970 that was designed to provide a tool for law enforcement agencies to fight organized crime. RICO allows prosecution and punishment for alleged racketeering activity that has been executed as part of an ongoing criminal enterprise.

Attorneys regard the RICO statute as unduly broad, and in the past it has been used to indict even legitimate businessmen for legitimate activities.

Hillary Clinton admits using her own server to send classified e-mails, which was against State Department policy at the time.

Activity considered to be racketeering may include bribery, counterfeiting, money laundering, embezzlement, illegal gambling, kidnapping, murder, drug trafficking, slavery, and a host of other nefarious business practices.

Huffington Post Politics senior editor Sam Stein claims to have no idea why the post was removed, and refused to give further comment when contacted by Breitbart News. Stein opined, “Sorry. I don’t know. I’d direct your question to a blog editor.”

A controversy arose in March 2015, when it was revealed by the State Department’s inspector general that Clinton had exclusively used personal email accounts on a non-government, privately maintained server-in lieu of email accounts maintained on federal government servers-when conducting official business during her tenure as Secretary of State. Some experts, officials, members of Congress, and political opponents, contended that her use of private messaging system software and a private server violated State Department protocols and procedures, and federal laws and regulations governing record keeping requirements.

Nearly 2,100 emails contained in Clinton’s server were retroactively marked classified by the State Department, though none of the emails were marked classified at the time they were sent. 65 were later classified as “secret”, more than 20 were designated “top secret”, and the rest were later designated as “confidential”.

However, the intelligence community’s inspector general wrote Congress to say that some of the emails “contained classified State Department information when originated.”

In a joint statement released on July 15, 2015, the inspector general of the State Department and the inspector general of the intelligence community said that through their review of the emails, they found information that was classified when sent, remained so as of their inspection, and “never should have been transmitted via an unclassified personal system.” They also stated unequivocally that those secrets never should have been stored outside of secure government computer systems. Mrs. Clinton had stated over a period of months that she kept no classified information on the private server that she set up in her house.

Smug or indicted? You decide

Government policy, reiterated in the nondisclosure agreement signed by Clinton as part of gaining her security clearance, is that sensitive information can be considered as classified even if not marked as such.[394] After allegations were raised that some of the emails in question fell into the so-called “born classified” category, an FBI probe was initiated regarding how classified information was handled on the Clinton server. In May 2016, the inspector general of the state department criticized her use of a private email server while she was secretary of state stating that she had not requested permission to use it and even if she had, she would not have been given permission.

The controversy occurred against the backdrop of Clinton’s 2016 presidential election campaign and hearings held by the House Select Committee on Benghazi

The politics forum on Reddit is FULL of Hillary bashing.

And the vast majority of it is coming from the Sander’s fans! LOL!

The support for her is weak as foam. She is entirely depending on the DNCe to keep her afloat.

At the end of the article she said if Hillary was the nominee she would vote Green Party. So Camille still is lockstep with the Leninists as you say.

Bubba with downturned mouth is classic, reminiscent of Carter on his defeat: They were the kids who canvassed to be elected class president.

YES. Hillary's buttboys at the New York Times will do whatever they can... they will assist with the lies... in every way possible.

Is it possible that Hillary has refused to be interviewed by the FBI? I would think that a long time has elapsed since her minions were interviewed.

So this may be why Bernie Sanders (my candidate) has gone into overdrive—not to damage Hillary, as her acolytes spitefully claim, but to fight off the tactical insertion of Biden at the Democratic Convention in Philadelphia.

Here's the plan: Hillary is forced to accept Sanders as her VP choice...her ONLY chance of winning. Sander's accepts.

Then the first shoe drops: Hillary's indicted. Bernie is now past the convention and it's too late for the fake Indian or the nudie Biden to be put in play.

The second shoe drops and Hillary's forced to drop out. Her private support base in wrapped up in indictments of their own - and she has no one to turn to... Sander's becomes the nominee...

He’s wearing a pink shirt to offset the pink and red blotches from his eyes, and particularly his coke-soaked nose, IMO.

Your sequence of events grows more possible each day.

Somewhere/maybe on your timeline, Bubba will suffer a severe health problem or worse.

Crooked Vagina Clintoon will drop out of the race to spend time with Bubba, Chelsey, and her grandbaby.

Obozo will pardon her on his last day as the president, who hates America.

Who knows what the Crooked Vagina Clintoon will try to do to keep running instead of going to jail.
