Unbeknownst to Clinton, IT firm had emails stored on cloud; now in FBI’s hands

You know what they say about the word ‘ASS-U-ME’!

Maybe it’s time to try some Bean-O?

I’ve had a clearance since 1971.

If I had mishandled classified data the way she has I’d already be in jail while they continued the search for where it may have ended up.

""This is a big dog and pony show. The FBI will come back and say: “After a complete analysis there is no evidence of any wrongdoing.”""

Too simplistic of an analysis. If they wanted to say that, there would have been no need to discover them in the first place. Or any of this, for that matter.

No, something very deliberate and very, very big is being played out - very slowly.

The slowness is a clue - slow speed means they want Hillary to think about something, and give her time to come around to their way of thinking. About what is obvious - to drop out of the race. In return, presumably, "they" will wrap up the investigation and toss it out, and the Clinton Foundation will receive all sorts of fresh donations.

And if she refuses, presumably "they" will make use of the investigation against her.

Why "they," with all their power, feel the need to act all this out is somewhat of a mystery, given that "they" no doubt routinely get rid of people in their way. Presumably, Hillary is equally protected, and they don't want to start a gang war.

I wonder what Scooter Libby thinks about this.

Hope for a pardon Jan 2017? How much do they cost? Maybe Bill will need one too.

[PA-RIVER]

She has an excuse. The right wing conspiracy put our data on the cloud. Linda Tripp probably did it.

[Tonytitan]

Isn’t that another breach of the law? Allowing classified info to get out of your control.

The really sick/hard part of all of this is the difficulty in finding a judge who would have jurisdiction over a criminal trial that is impartial, uncompromised and not a Clinton appointee.

[PA-RIVER]

The classified data went to Bill, and then he babbled it to Putin and his girlfriends.

We have no national secrets. Bill sold them for blow jobs.

“Why “they,” with all their power, feel the need to act all this out is somewhat of a mystery, given that “they” no doubt routinely get rid of people in their way. Presumably, Hillary is equally protected, and they don’t want to start a gang war.”

I’ll give you another analogy. This is the equivalent of the “Cuban Missile Crisis” between the Clinton & Obama ‘wings’ of the Democrat Party. They each have the ability to go nuclear on the other. So what Obama’s people are doing is very slowly ratcheting-up the pressure, then pausing. The pauses are to preserve plausible deniablility (Hey look what the investigators “just found”) and, as you say, to give Hillary time to re-evaluate (and evertually capitulate).

In essence they are showing that Hillary can’t have her cake and eat it too. And that’s a very hard concept for a Clinton to get their mind around.

Can one wipe the cloud...like...with a Cloth?

Like...maybe. But it's more than possible that someone is holding all those emails for blackmail after she is elected and will then wipe the floor...like...with her arse.

I have noticed that the paid trolls on those boards usually use names that sound legit, like “Bob Dabolina.”

[TigersEye]

‘Everyone has a price’ is a popular line in movies.
Today, in real life, it seems like everyone has already been bought.

[T-Bone Texan]

In 2001, under a different user name, i put a photo of myself on my homepage here on FR.

Photo was taken just after I fell off my mtn bike, and my forearm was all bloody. It was a pretty cool image.

Some anarchists scanned FR and collected all photos they could find so they could identify and do violence to us at the next protest. I know because I read all about it and their comments on Indymedia.

For some reason it got passed around and every once in a while I will come across that photo on the internet.

Its chilling because those people wanted to hurt us in a major way.

[Talisker]

Well said.

[William Tell]

A better cartoon might depict Hillary wearing a blue dress and finding a stain on the dress. The "stain" would be the not-quite-deleted emails.

People don't seem to fully appreciate that Bill Clinton was prepared to provide employment to Lewinsky in exchange for her silence regarding what happened in the Oval Office.

Bill Clinton then proceeded to perjure himself before a Grand Jury and engaged in obstruction of justice by asking others to commit perjury.

It was finally the certainty of a DNA test which sealed Clinton's culpability. Only the immoral and unethical nature of the Democrat Party prevented the removal of BJ Clinton from the Presidency.

It may well be that the FBI is in possession of Hillary's "blue dress".

100%... question is, will they prosecute???
