FBI Confirms “Enforcement Proceeding” Against Hillary
Young Conservatives ^ | May 2, 2016 | Alicia Powe

Posted on 05/02/2016 6:31:31 AM PDT by xzins

The mainstream media has succeeded in covering up Hillary Clinton’s email scandal and it appears her supporters couldn’t care less about the corruption.

While it seems unlikely that Clinton will be hauled away in handcuffs anytime soon, a new filing by the Justice Department contains a phrase that suggests a criminal prosecution is being planned for the Democratic presidential frontrunner.

From The Federalist Papers:

In the ongoing battle to get access to the e-mails that Hillary sent, or received or tried to destroy, the Justice Department has been forced to respond or explain why certain emails must remain classified.

When a Vice News reporter formally protested the classification of an FBI decision explaining how sensitive information ended up on Hillary’s homebrew server, the Justice Department responded, explaining why:

“They responded in kind by saying they couldn’t make the document public because it would “adversely affect the ongoing investigation” into Clinton’s private email server.

Fair enough, but it is two words further into the DOJ memorandum that will be sure to raise some eyebrows. The department claims it can’t reveal the document because doing so could “reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement proceedings.”

It’s those two words – “enforcement proceedings”– that may be telling. As Rusty Weiss explains, the phrase “enforcement proceedings” is used in federal law when an “investigation or proceeding involves a possible violation of criminal law.”

The FBI needs to finish this before November for the sake of the nation.

The Clintons are above the law and live by different rules than the rest of us.

General Petraeus or any other State Department official would be on trial already.

What’s the statute of limitations period for treason?

Seems from the definition if it didn’t involve a possible “enforcement proceeding” there wouldn’t be any reason to have the FBI involved at all.

"I have a new theory. Obama’s hatred of Clintons may be stronger than his loyalty to Democratic party. He will let her be prosecuted."

No, no NO WAY. Guess who 'discovery' will reveal implicated in Hillary's crimes? One clue, his middle name is HUSSEIN. NO way Hussein blows the lid off his own crimes.

I'll bet SOME of Hillary's emails implicate Hussein and that is the ONLY reason they are deemed classified AFTER THE FACT.

If the FBI finishes before the Dem convention, you can bet some sort of detailed report gets leaked as a whoopsie. That is what might severely harm her campaign regardless of the determination to prosecute or not.

I don’t think there is one for treason. Treason is a constitutional issue.

Biden/Sanders???

Nominating someone who hasn't been through the primaries is exactly what caused the riots in Chicago in '68. The Peeps won't risk it again. They'll nominate Sanders and let the chips fall where they may if Hillary goes down.

I still don't think Hillary will ever be charged with anything. Most everyone who works for the government is a Democrat.

Just as Dems did with Launtenberg, they will fight to get judges to cooperate and put Biden on the ballot.

I hope they keep dragging it out.

Hillary is killing the Democrat Party.

She is the only Democrat in the news, and the news ain’t good.

This is the best year I’ve had since I was a kid!

It will be telling as to when things happen.

If just before the convention, then Bernie will be the nominee. Obama never liked the Clintons.

If just after the convention, then they would quickly have to figure an alternate. Biden?

If after the election and Hillary wins, then we will have a mess.

if after the election and Trump won, then Hillary is going to jail.

Nothing was covered up by the media. The media simply doesn’t care that Hillary is corrupt.

None. Just like murder, war crimes, fraud, kidnapping and embezzlement.

So...maybe in a million years these bastards could be convicted.

I’d expect the misprision of Treason would be similarly treated.

Where’s LEO?

***I guess we shall see. Regardless, I would like to see Obama’s administration forced to indict her.***

Not going to happen. She’s got him by the balls on Benghazi, the overthrow of the Libyan government, the Egyptian Government, God knows what with Iran. We probably can’t imagine the amount of dirt these two have on each other. None of these “investigations” are going anywhere.

[Obama probably will give the go-ahead to indict/prosecute Hillary at the most convenient time to create maximum chaos for the November election. He’ll use that chaos as an excuse to decree martial law and cancel the election.]

I have considered this possibility. Liberal Hillary supporters will declare it a “conspiracy” by the GOP. No doubt blaming Trump for Hillary’s crimes.

I’ve written on this, and I’ll say it again.

Obama will pardon her before there is any trial, and shortly after the indictment.

He’s already planted the seed that he didn’t think she did anything wrong.

How can a president cancel an election? He can’t do that.

Probably. I still say Hillary has enough info on Obama to destroy his “legacy” (i.e., the lies that liberals love to believe about him).

Takes her out of the race, all the while holding this over her head to keep her quiet.

Just like Rod Blagojevich. Whom he will pardon in January, 2017, I predict. Maybe I’m wrong but we’ll see.
