She had her octopus tentacles tangled up in so many treasonous plots it's difficult to know where to begin ...

... and she had her own server in order to escape scrutiny because she was "riding America dirty"!

But good try at offering an excuse for Hellary. She would appreciate it, I'm sure.

Because it would incriminate Obama.

Yep, and we can't go throwing our first black president in jail now can we? That would be.....you know.

You know, the democrats would be a lot more dangerous than they are if they weren't so f'ing stupid.

I wonder... Did Obama even use email. He is so detached from everything presidential and immersed in golfing he had little time for actual business. That was Vajayjay’s job.

Nice take. And here's the thinking of the greedy Obama's once they're out of office.

I laughed out loud reading the (gag) "mission statement" of his get-rich-quick foundations (two that we know of).......practiced con jobs to get tax-exempt status:

The Muslim Foundation.....“to provide people everywhere with resources to uplift their welfare and living standards in memory of my dad---Barack H. Obama: in the region of his birth, Kenya, and beyond.” Its guiding principle is “the inherent belief that no one can truly enjoy the riches he has reaped if his neighbor suffers....."We seek to elevate the human condition so that everyone can live in dignity and truly enjoy having one another as neighbors.”

(waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)

Despite raising more than $250,000, the alleged charity doesn’t seem to have done much. Its website claims the organization has built a madrassa and was building an imam’s house as well as some “proposed latrines,” but there is no other evidence that the nonprofit was working to “mitigate social-shortcomings in areas of education and literacy, health and well-being, poverty, and lack of community infrastructure in such basic needs such as water, electricity, shelter and sustenance,” as the site says.

===========================================

This one's even funnier:

GET READY FOR ANOTHER POLITICAL MONEY-MAKING MACHINE ---Boobamba already has two Clintonesque get-rich-quick foundations (that we know of)....mission statements sounding suspiciously like the Clintons.

SOURCE http://www.barackobamafoundation.org/

President Obama said, "the change we seek will take longer than one term or one presidency. Real change—big change—takes many years and requires each generation to embrace the obligations and opportunities that come with the title of Citizen. " (TRANSLATION: Me and Michelle want the money pouring in faster than we can spend it.)

FOUNDATION MISSION STATEMENT (cue laugh machine): The Obama Foundation will inspire the next generation of young leaders all over the world. It will convene the brightest minds with the newest ideas from across the political spectrum and draw strength from the rich diversity and vitality of Chicago, the city where the President and First Lady started a family and raised their daughters.

But most of all, the Foundation will ask all of us to take on big challenges and to believe that we can meet them together. Our history and President Obama’s legacy give us hope that even the most difficult change is possible, and the Foundation exists to carry on that great, unfinished project of renewal and global progress.”

Inform visitors about our civic rights and responsibilities and inspire citizens to get engaged.

Empower individuals who are leading change around the world, and help develop new ways to enable all citizens to take action.

Connect people from different communities and disciplines to create new approaches to solving our biggest challenges.

Translate new ideas into concrete actions that will have a measurable impact, enlisting partners across all sectors to scale what works.”

Obama foundation invites foundation donors to the White House
Chicago Sun-Times ^ | 5/19/16 | Lynn Sweet / FR posted by Nachum

WASHINGTON — A new study details how President Barack Obama has been inviting his Obama Foundation donors to events at the White House, a venue that obviously won’t be available to him to entertain mega contributors in a few months. The Obama Foundation, created on Jan. 31, 2014, has to date only 39 contributors, with the money coming either from individuals or foundations controlled by Obama supporters.

The nonprofit, nonpartisan oversight Maplight Foundation found that 15 of the 39 have been to the White House for small meetings or events, fewer than 30 attendees, including everyone connected to a contribution of more than $100,000.

Most of the donors have been longtime political supporters and friends — or at least acquaintances of Obama — and have been in and out of the White House for years.

However, Maplight found that at an intimate White House dinner in January 2015 with actress Julia Roberts, the guests included two couples who had recently made jumbo contributions to the Chicago-based foundation.

And as 2015 progressed, one of the couples at the dinner kicked in even more, the foundation IRS report released last Friday reveals.

Among those at the January 2015 dinner were Mark Gallogly, the managing partner of Centerbridge Partners, an investment firm, and his wife, Lise Strickler. At that point, the New York couple had donated $340,000 to the foundation.

By the end of 2015, they put in an additional $330,000 for a total of $670,000. I checked to see what else was new: Gallogly and Strickler were invited to the State Dinner the Obamas hosted in March for Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

In 2014, Tom Campion, owner of the Zumiez clothing chain and his wife, Sonya, gave the foundation $500,000. The Seattle couple found themselves at the Julia Roberts dinner along with folks who have also been longtime Obama backers. Another guest that evening was one of Obama’s favorite authors, Marilynne Summers Robinson.

The White House has said — and underscored this again on Wednesday at the daily briefing when asked about the Maplight report — that the Obamas are not fundraising for the foundation while in office. Well, no one is selling tickets to anything, that’s accurate. That’s not how fundraising at the mega level is done.

Obama will have to raise hundreds of millions of dollars to construct and endow his Obama Presidential Center on Chicago’s South Side. Fundraising at the elite donor level is an art, a nuanced dance, especially for an institution that will exist in perpetuity.

Small dinners are not put on Obama’s daily guidance and schedule. On April 2, 2016, the White House volunteered that Obama and first lady Michelle hosted their first White House event for supporters of the Obama Foundation. That dinner was not a fundraiser, the White House said.

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said: “What we have said about donors to the campaign also applies to donors at the foundation, and it’s simply this: Donating in support of the President’s foundation does not guarantee you a meeting with the President of the United States. It also doesn’t prevent you from getting a meeting with the President of the United States, and that’s the approach that we’ve taken, again, with regard to supporters of the President’s campaign, and it’s the approach that we’ve taken with regard to supporters of the President’s foundation.”

(NOTE: A lot of this is prospecting for the future.....M/M O have Big plans to get-rich-quick ala the Clintons.)

Does anyone know if WikiLeaks has emails that are to or from Obama?

Yes, this does help to explain it. Thanks.
Now, if we only had equal enforcement of the law for everyone.

I still cannot figure out a good reason for Hillary to have had a private server for state business unless it was to keep things hidden...

It was for ALL business, including Clinton Foundation business. That's the biggie, IMHO.
