Hillary Clinton’s Emails Now Might Finally Take Her Down
Mediaite ^ | 5/29/16 | Dan Metcalfe

Posted on 05/30/2016 3:59:52 PM PDT by Faith Presses On

This past week has been a milestone of sorts for those who closely follow the continuing saga of Hillary Clinton’s wrongful use of email systems during her tenure as Secretary of State. But the kind of milestone it was depends on where you stood when the week began.

For those of us who recognized from the outset that Ms. Clinton’s exclusive use of a personal email system for all her official business (not to mention her unprecedented use of a private server atop that) was a clear violation of the Federal Records Act (“FRA”), the findings of the State Department’s Inspector General (“IG”) to that effect in his May 25 report were no surprise. In fact, on the admitted facts of the case, no other conclusion was possible, and it was simply another “shoe waiting to be dropped.”

(snip)

More to the point, though, you fear that the most likely Democrat nominee, having just been seriously wounded by this week’s IG report, is manifestly vulnerable to a much greater wound in the form of a criminal indictment for misconduct that far transcends what the IG report dealt with. Specifically, as a sophisticated observer, you are aware that Former Secretary Clinton’s intent (known in criminal law as mens rea), or lack of same, is not what matters in this case. Rather, the applicable legal standard is a mere “gross negligence” one, as specified in the standard national security non-disclosure agreement that she signed and its underlying criminal statutes.

America is gone. It is no longer ruled by elected officials that are under oath and obey the constitution. Those in power break laws and nothing is done. The corporate media goes along with the dictates of those in power who do their bidding. There is no rule of law left. Hillary not in jail is the final proof. The canary in the coal mine that Obama put out of business. Complete madness. Stock up and stay sober for the bumpy ride to come.

Hillary is too close to her life’s ambition to quit. Unless she is handcuffed and perp walked she will never quit.

We don’t want Hillary to be out of the race. She’ll be easier to beat than any of those waiting in the wings to take her place. A Biden-Bernie ticket would be too popular. Faux-cahontas in the mix would be a problem for us.

Let PIAPS be the candidate and Trump will have her for lunch.

Sooner or later, just like Bill, she'll declare:

"I did not have textual relations with that server!"
