Game Over: EmailGate Just Crippled the Clinton Express
Observer ^ | 5/26 | John Schindler

Posted on 05/26/2016 11:47:34 AM PDT by TangledUpInBlue

Then there’s the troubling matter of EmailGate, the long-running scandal that this column has covered in great detail. That Ms. Clinton and her senior staff misused email during her tenure as secretary of state has long been crystal-clear. Refusing to use government email for government work was a violation of policy, while Team Clinton’s routing of said emails through a private server, then putting classified information on it—including above top secret information from the Intelligence Community—looks like a violation of several federal laws.

Early denials from the Clinton camp tried to make the entire matter go away, insisting there was no “there” there. Once that folded in the face of massive evidence that something indeed had gone very awry with Secretary Clinton’s emails at Foggy Bottom, the excuses shifted to ones familiar to those who experienced the 1990s. Everybody does it. It’s not really a big deal. Above all, this is politically motivated. These false accusations are the machinations of a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.

Such dodges held water for months among Hillary fans, aided by parts of the mainstream media which, long accustomed to running interference for the Clintons, continued to do so, attempting to muddy waters that to those familiar with laws and regulations on the handling of classified materials are actually decidedly clear.

She’ll campaign from a holding cell under suicide watch if she has to.

I sure hope he's right, but he seems overly optimistic to me.

Yup, wishful thinking. You have to be really naive to think her goose is cooked. Trickling out the bad news can inoculate just as well as inflame. That crooked old bird isn't done until there's a proverbial fork sticking in her or she's behind bars.

Once in a while the media will express outrage at some egregious Clinton crime (like the Marc Rich pardon) but a week or two later and all is forgiven and forgotten.

The local paper had the story on page 2, and seemed to be arguing that (1) everyone else did the same thing and (2) the State Department's official system was so bad they were better off using the private server.

Honest ta God....anymore of the "Clinton Solidarity Act," and I'm gonna puke.

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

MEMORY LANE---The Clintons locked arms after Pres Bill got lewinskied in the Oval Office.

VINTAGE TIME COVER The Clintons leave the WH
arm-in-arm after Bill got lewinskied. The well-oiled
Clinton political apparat never faltered.

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

And there's Hillary's annoying way of bouncing back out of trouble.
Hillary's sub rosa political ambitions were in deep doo-doo when Bill
got lewinskied. What to do? Easy. Blame it on conservatives.

Hill went on network TV all decked out in virginal pearls,
denying everything, blaming Billy's B/J on "an invention of
the VRWC." Bill later admitted to it, was impeached, and disbarred.

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

"Do-goodisn" was the Clintons' passport into the deep pockets of numerous global entities. 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.

HOW THE CONNIVING CLINTONS WORK THE FOUNDATION SCAM Just the other day, little Chelsea frowned and worried about dwindling elephant herds. BOOM---the Clinton Family Foundation had a new fund-raising pitch. CHECK IT OUT--CLINTON FOUNDATION WEB SITE Peruse 276 web pages of obscure programs all of them vehicles to raise money.

All of them expecting payback w/ Hillary in the WH.

LOCATED 1271 Avenue of the Americas 42nd Floor New York, NY 10020 212-348-8882

WEB SITE http://www.clintonfoundation.org/clinton-global-initiative

The phony do-gooder Clintons calculatedly morphed into "The Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Family Foundation" ..... giving them even more fund-raising capabilities w/ a friendly "family" aura.

"Smile everybody. Another $100 million came in today.

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

Hillary/s State Dept emails were found on the Clinton Foundation server; these were a valuable commodity, for sale on the global market. Forget about imperiling our ntl security. Not to forget the State Dept's contractor fund misplaced $6 billion---just evaporated into thin air on Hillary's watch.

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

Paraphrasing VDHanson ....lurid revelations indicate the Clinton Foundation is a huge money-laundering operation fuelling the Clintons affluent lifestyle and their political ambitions.....with well-paid sinecures for the hydra-headed Clinton retinue flitting around w/ scads of money. The serial cover-ups and financial legerdemain are the result of greed and the Clintons naked buck-raking.......

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

Time to look at the Clintons money-laundering operation. When L/E looked at Jeffrey Epstein's Orgy Island pedophile case, they found Bill Clinton and pal Doug Band w/ 20 phone nos and email addresses. L/E recognizes this as a classic money-laundering MO. Bill Clinton was an inveterate globe-trotter w/ do-goodism as his passport to the world.....secret accounts, business interests, and other evidence of money laundering, must be everywhere.

Herself should be terrified.
The continuation of the Left as leadership power rides on her becoming President.
Her odds of that are crashing, pulling just even with Trump and he hasn’t really started on her yet. A deranged grandfather from Vermont is on the verge of beating her.
If she doesn’t start winning THIS WEEK, or otherwise bow out, the Left will have to start the process of removing and replacing her - knowing she will fight unto scorched earth to not give up her very last chance at her life’s goal.
And the best way for the Left to remove her at this point is direct the Justice Department to prosecute.

Someone on another thread made an interesting comment. Since the Obamas plan to stay in DC and cause mischief Barry probably wants all that foundation money going into his coffers. How better to realize that than to stop the Clintons in their tracks.

It’s frightening to think… That we have become a nation where politicians “police themselves”

…I fear it will not end well

She’s dead meat. You don’t have to do much reading between the lines to understand between Sander’s enduring success, Guccifer’s signing of the plea deal, McAuliffe’s “sudden” problems, the NSA citing Blumenthal by name as having classified information, the do over of the foundation’s IRS 990’, the Podestas’ exposure in the Panama Papers, the FBI leaks and the willingness of Trump to broadcast it all far and wide to understand Hillary is facing a shit storm of historic proportions for her pay-to-play racketeering.

If you doubt me look at the FEC reports. The donors caught a whiff of the stench months ago. When Sanders meets or exceeds the amount of funds she raised monthly, she has a problem that’s not going away.

“What did Obama know and when did he know it.”

He’s gone in 9 months anyway, long before any investigation of him would be finished. Hillary is the one that urgently needs to be stopped now.

The press is going to be pretty embarrassed they ‘missed’ this story because Bernie told them he wasn’t interested...

I’d love to see Hillary in an orange jump suit shackled doing the perp walk. But I ain’t holding my breath.

We'd all love to see that Bob, but until that day, how's this?

I think she’s been wounded.

I think she's been wounded and has a gathering pack of hyenas following her blood trail.

God, don't you love it when reality hits a liberal full in the face?

This is a clear violation of Federal Law and the FBI needs to convince authorities to take this to a grand jury.
