Clintons personally paid State Department staffer to maintain server

The Washington Post ^ | Rosalind S. Helderman and Carol D. Leonnig

[Bobby_Taxpayer]

Of all of the email releases, has anyone seen any to or from the WH, especially between Hildabeast and The One, or VJ? Can’t believe they would have never corresponded in 4 years. Something else is amiss.

[FroggyTheGremlim]

Betcha Pagliano’s found dead, apparent “suicide.”

[maggief]

CLARIFICATION:

Seems they left a little wiggle room by conflating “fatal error” with Hurricane Sandy disruption.

“E-mails released this week show that members of the State Department IT department’s help desk were unaware of the setup and sought information about why a correspondent was getting a “fatal error” when sending messages to Clinton’s address. The tech support team “didn’t know it was you,” an aide e-mailed Clinton.

Federal regulations allow employees at Pagliano’s level to have outside employment but require that the extra income not exceed 15 percent of their government salary. Employees must also ensure that their outside work not create a conflict of interest with their government job.

By early 2013, as Clinton was preparing to conclude her time as secretary of state, she was looking to upgrade the system’s security and durability, people briefed on the server have said. The system had crashed for days during Hurricane Sandy in October 2012, disrupting her e-mail abilities.”

Well, did the Clintons issue a 1099 to this fellow?

Where is the wonderful IRS on this deal?

EXCELLENT POINT: "has anyone seen email communiques between Hillary, the WH ding-a-ling and Val/Jar? These people never corresponded in 7-some years?"

ACADEMY-AWARD WORTHY---Obama puts on a convincing act.
He "knows nothing." Obama didn't even know about this (snix)?

Circa 2010--Ex-Pres Clinton in Moscow having a laugh w/ Putin
as strategic US uranium deposits were sold off to Russia for Big Bucks.

" Hahahaha. US ntl security? Hahahaha. You gotta be kidding, Vlad."

With all the top-level intel available to him, do Americans actually believe:

<><>Obama was oblivious to the Clintons jerking around US foreign policy?

<><> Obama knew nothing of Hillary and Sid Blumenthal's emails WRT Iran (the man Obama banned from US govt employment)?

<><> Obama knew nothing about the Clinton Foundation/slush fund buck-raking activities?

<><> Obama never noticed Bill Clinton trotting around the globe?

<><> Obama never noticed the Clinton "charity" used to worm his way into the confidences of foreign leaders.... but only those leaders w/ untapped reserves of gold, uranium, oil, and other valuable commodities?

<><> Obama never knew Hillary's brother got a gold-mining permit in Haiti?

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

THE FACTS ARE THESE---WE, THE PEOPLE, NOTICED Hand-picked by Obama to run State, Hillary ran it like a shadow govt.... w/ her husband taking notes WRT buck-raking opportunities available from Hillary's actions OR inaction.

Secy Hillary never e-v-e-r uttered a discouraging word e-v-e-r......as the Clinton Foundation sucked up hundred of millions of foreign dollars from shady characters.

The avaricious Clintons devised hundreds of obscure programs to collect billions.....bragging about do-goodism, how the money was supposedly dispersed to "assist" endless charitable projects.

No question----Obama and Clintons had a deal going. The Clintons deposit Obama's cut into his two "foundations" (two that we know of).

THIS HAS CRIMINAL IMPLICATIONS A cabinet-level government employee in her position using their own server and personal e-mail exclusively is unheard of.

<><> the US govt tech system is really fussy----particularly about emails from the US State Dept.

<><> a govt official (particularly the Secy of State) cannot simply buy a brand new computer with licenses and programs and expect to have it certified.

<><> US govt officials are required to have a government-purchased computer, set up by the govt, utilizing a CACC card cleared technician.

<><> a high government official (particularly the Secy of State) to utilize day to day a non-government computer for communications in the performance of their job is in violation of security laws in dozens of ways.

<><> whether marked as such, all emails emanating from Hillary's private server are classified ntl security data.

It is considered a crime for ex-govt employees to possess ntl security emails. All ntl security material belongs to the American people and is to be turned over upon termination of employment.

Ntl security info being kept in The Clinton Foundation server is an atrocity.

[HarleyLady27]

He was paid to run her server (after he said he didn’t know what ‘wiping a server’ meant?)

I think what he should have said was:

‘I was paid by the Clinton Crime Family to make sure I didn’t let any of the information leak’ or anyone know that it wasn’t a ‘government’ server...

And her lame excuse yesterday was: “ I really didn’t think it mattered, I had a private server when I was a Senator’ Right, scum bag, your done, and over, go away, take your lover Huma with you and get your ugly face out of our news!!!

[maggief]

“...Pagliano continued to be paid by the Clintons to maintain the server, which was in their Chappaqua, N.Y., home, according to the campaign official and another person familiar with the arrangement..”

Was Pagliano aware he was about to become a fall guy?

Pagliano remains working on “mobile and remote computing functions” as a State Department contractor. Is this arrangement unusual? Is the State paying his legal fees?

(The timing of the pro-H WaPo piece seems to be in coordination with the Mitchell interview.)

[maggief]

H’s Press Secretary Brian Fallon said, “I don’t know what wiped means.”

[MikeSteelBe]

“This is the exact same thing we went through in the 90s with Craig Livingstone. Another low-level guy who was secretly paid by Hillary to collect data on 700 enemies of Bill. The Clintons are the very personification of “those who ignore the past are doomed to repeat it...”

The fools who think the Clintons will be held accountable for their crimes are the very personification of “those who ignore the past are doomed to repeat it.”

There, fixed it.

[InterceptPoint]

Thanks for posting that Powerline article. Here is the important point from that article:

"The CI community knows she managed to jump the “air gap”on some information but because she erased the server they do not know the full extend of the jump."

That reference to the "air gap" should be picked up by the media because it is what happened. There was no direct connection between classified systems and the Clinton server. The "air gap" is Hillary reading or talking to Huma and others about classified issues and info and putting that info on her private system.

There is no way knowing the damage done by her actions if the data on her server is not recovered. And she wants to be President of the United States.

[miss marmelstein]

You know, I was going to add something like that. You’re right, of course. It does seem, though, that even Freepers don’t remember old Livingstone.

[miss marmelstein]

Off-point perhaps, but reading these hilariously idiotic “results oriented” resumes bullsh** is another view into why the USA is in such awful shape.

[blueunicorn6]

I wouldn’t give him immunity on the tax dodging.

I’d keep that to hold over his head.

That is a sure thing.

I’d give him immunity on crimes related to improper computer use.

I’d not give him immunity on espionage and treason and dangle those over his head.

You give him immunity on the tax evasion and he’ll have memory problems while testifying.

He’s been infected by the criminal Clintons.

[proxy_user]

You can’t give him immunity on particular things. It’s all or nothing.

[nascarnation]

I’d think the chances of this guy being tossed into the slammer are about zero.

[mikey_hates_everything]

Now he is a Deloitte contractor working in Mobile Remote Access within IRM. I don’t know why he hasn’t been walked out for the severe policy violation. BTW, he and his wife have “wiped” their Facebook profiles.

Pagliano’s attorney, Mark MacDougall:

Partner
Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld, LLP
September 1993 – Present (22 years 1 month)

Trial Attorney

During the early 1990s, Mr. MacDougall served as a federal prosecutor with the Criminal Division of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), where he was the lead attorney in a series of highly successful financial fraud prosecutions.

http://articles.latimes.com/1995-08-09/news/mn-33236_1_bank-examiner

For example, on Oct. 16, 1992, the U.S. attorney in Little Rock, Ark., said in a letter to the FBI that he did not believe he could win a criminal prosecution against McDougal and his wife, Susan.

“While participation of some or all of these witnesses certainly suggests poor judgment, possible conflicts of interest or ethical infractions, proving specific intent or knowing criminal conduct would be a prosecutorial burden that could not be carried beyond a reasonable doubt,” wrote Charles A. Bank, a Bush appointee. He noted that McDougal had been tried and acquitted earlier on other bank charges.

Four months later, an attorney in the Justice Department’s criminal fraud section came to the same conclusion. “Mr. and Mrs. McDougal’s conduct may have constituted a breach of duty, abuse of position and self-dealing,” wrote attorney Mark J. MacDougall in a memo to the chief of the fraud division. “However, [the] factual allegations [are not] sufficient to establish the elements of any of the criminal statutes used in the prosecution of bank fraud.”

Criminal Referral C0004 gets lost at the Justice Department.

Criminal referral C0004 remained in the U.S. Attorney’s Office until January 27, 1993, when Mr. Banks requested, in a letter to Donna Henneman, Ethics Program Manager at the Executive Office for U.S. Attorneys, that Main Justice assume responsibility for any further action.(290) Mr. Banks believed that his office had a conflict of interest because of its unsuccessful criminal prosecution of Mr. McDougal in 1990.(291) Mr. Banks concluded that “[a] limited preliminary investigation of allegations pertinent to Mr. and Mrs. McDougal and Ms. Anspaugh should be considered,” and that interviews of these individuals should determine whether there is merit to further investigation.(292)

On February 9, 1993, Anthony Moscato, Director of the Executive Office of United States Attorneys, forwarded Mr. Banks’ request to Stuart Gerson, then Acting Attorney General, through Douglas Frazier, Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General.(293) Mr. Frazier prepared a recusal package and sent it to the Criminal Division for its recommendation.(294)

On February 22, 1993, Gerald McDowell, Chief of the Frauds Section at Main Justice, directed a young trial attorney, Mark MacDougall, to analyze the criminal referral.(295) Just one day later, on February 23, 1993, without even reviewing the 300 exhibits, Mr. MacDougal prepared a memorandum in which he concluded that Crminal Referral C0004 did not appear to warrant any criminal investigation.(296)
