The word inside the beltway is that a longtime adviser to Hillary Rodham Clinton is urging her to hire outside legal counsel and look into cutting a deal with the Feds over the e-Mail scandal currently dogging her presidential campaign, it was reported Tuesday.
According to the report Mrs. Clinton was told she needs to act quickly because, contrary to reports that the FBI probe into her use of a private e-Mail server may drag on for months, the investigation may actually wrap up by year’s end.
The NY-T’s is reporting that Mrs. Clinton received Top-Secret e-Mails on her unsecured, privately maintained server she used as Secretary of State. She has repeatedly said she did not send or receive classified material, though she later amended that material that was marked Classified. Tuesday she said that she was “sorry.”
“Hillary needs counsel to let Congress, the Justice Department, the FBI, and all the authorities involved know that she’s taking this very seriously,” the adviser said “And she needs to get some discovery as to where the investigation is going so that she can make plans how to deal with it.”
Joking about her e-Mail problem and acting as though it is a conspiracy by her political enemies is hurting her with the Federal prosecutors, the adviser said.
The adviser said he pointed out that former CIA directors David Petraeus and John Deutch each avoided criminal charges by pleading guilty to a Misdemeanor for mishandling classified material. But Mrs. Clinton responded that neither of them was running for President.
She fears an admission of guilt would end her chances of being elected. Which it is likely to do, many do not like her already, but cotton to her perceived power.
The adviser told Mrs. Clinton it was a chance she had to take because Federal investigators smell “Blood in the Water,” according to reports.
Bryan Pagliano, a State Department IT professional hired privately by Mrs. Clinton to set up her private e-Mail server, has invoked his Fifth Amendment right not to testify before Congress, and Mr. Pagliano could end up being the Key to forcing Mrs. Clinton to make a plea deal.
Mr. Pagliano is not a member of the Clinton Inner Circle and will not be as willing to “Fall on the Sword” for her as someone such as her aides Cheryl Mills or Huma Abedin.
People close to the investigation expects Mrs. Clinton to make a plea deal and quit the race, leaving space for Vice President Joe Biden, who is considering a run.
Joe Biden has said he is not sure he has the emotional energy to run following the death in May of his son, Beau. US President Barack Hussein Obama senior adviser Valerie Jarrett is putting Mr. Biden in touch with psychotherapists in an effort to get him in the mental space to run.
Suddenly there is a huge outpouring for Mr. Biden, while HRC goes in the tank over the e-Mail scandal.
Stay tuned…
“Guzzle this chug-jug o’ RAT POISON —after u stop twitching, we’ll not prosecute you...”
She will get a pardon if she drops out.
But I bet there’s a deadline. After that, the Foundation emails will be turned over to a Special Prosecutor and the IRS, and all three of them will go to prison.

Maybe force her to shove Huma under the bus to save her own azz. She’d do it if the choice was between Huma and her candidacy.

Wait a minute. Is this satire? It's getting harder and harder to tell.
No deals for this wreched woman.
“Take this cyanide pill and we’ll arrange a state funeral.”
If only..
But she has nothing to worry about. There’ll be no indictment.
This is not difficult to understand.
The Clintons have been running the back seams of the dumb party since they left the Whitehouse.
Barak Obama (peace be upon his name) (sarcasm)
Wants to be in that position. Hillary is dead!
BO is making sure of that!!!
“Valerie Jarrett is putting Mr. Biden in touch with psychotherapists “
So.... people were correct about Crazy Joe.
She will cut a deal just as soon as she finds an acceptable scapegoat. Not one minute before.
Uh, paging Richard Nixon ... Tricky Dick, please pick up the white courtesy phone.
I keep wondering: (not really) If you are Secy of State, as a matter of routine you receive top secret emails. When they hit your inbox, they hit your inbox. You can not filter them, you can not tell the TS attribute in advance. You open your email tool and they are there. Period, end of subject. So how is it possible to say you never received TS emails? Is it more of that Clinton magic we’re so accustomed to?
So - it really matters a lot to BO and Valerie Jarrett that Biden runs and Hillary jumps ship, even though his son just died? Seems like Biden really does NOT want to run.
Rats on the ship (of state).
Just read where the NYT editor is being reassigned. Seems the Clinton machine doesn’t like the tone of the NYT reports on Hillary.
The fact that the NYT is the source for this column above made me think this may have been that editor’s last chance to dish out on the facts— the ones that all reporters seem to know but keep from the rest of the world.
OTH, that editor may already be transferred, but it signals the NYT switch hitter replacement isn’t doing the Clintons’ any favors.
Just wow, how this does make sense. We have all wondered why she isn’t already out like Petraus career was destroyed.
This at least takes a bow to the sheer panic that does exist in the Clinton machine, after all.
I think she has to be done. Those North Korea logistic maps on her private email did it for me. How do you get past that as a product of work on your personal email, as SoS??
OTOH, a psychiatrist might have Biden committed.
I think Chris Christie might be close to ending his run as a Republican, so he could then be available.
The heck???
