State Department staffers wrestled for weeks in December 2010 over a serious technical problem with then-Secretary Hillary Clinton's home email server, causing them to temporarily disable security features that left the server more vulnerable to hackers, according to emails released Wednesday.

Just weeks later, according to previously disclosed emails, hackers attacked the server, forcing Clinton's staff to shut it down. The next day, one of Clinton's closest aides, Huma Abedin, wrote to other high ranking staff: "Don't email hrc (Clinton) anything sensitive. I can explain more in person."

The emails were released under court order Wednesday to the conservative legal advocacy group Judicial Watch, which has sued the State Department over access to public records related to the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee's service as the nation's top diplomat between 2009 and 2013.

One thing I have not seen much talk about was how HRC’s server set-up effectively blinded the POTUS to dealings at the state dept. He was dependent on her to provide info, and she could withhold anything she wanted. He was her boss, she worked for him, and he relied on her to execute his policies... but by keeping info outside of the hands of government archives she held the strings over him. It was a power play, but one which is intolerable in a Republic.

I’ve bet all along Clinton would NOT be the nominee. Not that that’s what I want!

“Comey does not indict, Lynch indicts. Not a prayer it’s going to happen.”

I understand that, but Comey’s in a ten-year presidential appointment that cannot be undone by Obola, so the betting is ( that is if he’s indeed a decent man) that if Lynch doesn’t indict Hitlary, Comey can still go public with what he knows, and so may some of his agents if they too are patriots. We will see, won’t we!
