HILLARY CLINTON'S EMAILS: THE REAL REASON THE FBI IS REVIEWING MORE OF THEM
Newsweek ^ | 10/28/2016

Posted on 10/28/2016 10:13:00 PM PDT by llevrok

(snip)Clinton preferred to read documents on paper rather than on a screen, emails and other files were often printed out and provided to her either at her office or home, where they were delivered in a diplomatic pouch (snip)Abedin, like many State Department officials, found the government network technology to be cumbersome, and she had great trouble printing documents there(snip). As a result, she sometimes transferred emails from her unclassified State Department account to either her Yahoo account or her account on Clinton’s server,(snip)aIt is not clear whether she ever transferred official emails to the account she used for her husband’s campaign.

Abedin would use this procedure for printing documents when she received emails she believed Clinton needed to see and when the Secretary forwarded emails to her for printing. Abedin told the FBI she would often print these emails without reading them. Abedin printed a large number of emails this way, in part because, investigative records show, other staff members considered her Clinton’s “gatekeeper” and often sent Abedin electronic communications they wanted the Secretary to see.

This procedure for printing documents, the government official says, appears to be how the newly discovered emails ended up on the laptop shared by Abedin and her husband. It is unclear whether any of those documents were downloaded onto the laptop off of her personal email accounts or were saved on an external storage device, such as a flash drive, and then transferred to the shared computer. There is also evidence that the laptop was used to send emails from Abedin to Clinton; however, none of those emails are the ones being examined by the FBI. Moreover, unless she was told by Abedin in every instance, Clinton could not have known what device her aide was using to transmit electronic information to her.(snip)

Like I said. But Newsweek is conveniently ignoring the fact that Hillary was continually consulting (and sharing classified informaton) with Sidney Blumenthal, her Rasputin whom she wasn’t permitted to hire to work for her at the State Department.

Reason: Sid the “discredited” couldn’t qualify for a security clearance because he had lied to a Federal grand jury about his role in spreading to the Washington press corps the false narrative that Monica Lewinsky was a stalker whose advances President Bill Clinton had to rebuff.

But Hillary still kept Sid in the loop, sending his all sorts of classified material. She, he, and their lawyers thought they had destroyed all those emails that would have proved they had engaged in felonious conduct. But, Shazam!, it looks like some, if not all, of those exchanges wound up being stored on a Huma Abedin and/or Anthony Weiner electronic device.

Amazingly, the FBI agent(s) who interviewed her back in April did not seize those devices as soon as she acknowledged using them to handle classified info. The FBI only obtained them when it began investigating Weiner’s sexting activity.

Hard to believe that for the past two months the right hand didn’t seem to know what the left hand was doing at Comey’s FBI, but there it is. And if not for Weiner’s weird proclivities, we might never have learned the truth. The fickle finger of fate has been eclipsed by Wicked Weiner Come Late. But better late than never.

Agents looking for pictures of Weiner’s boner evidently came across something they hadn’t expected to find, and alerted someone else, who must have crawled on their hands and knees through every hallway in the FBI building before finally making their way to Comey’s office. Guess it wasn’t possible for an agent to just pick up the phone and tell Comey ‘You’re not gonna wanna hear this, but ... “

No, actually, I DO believe this story.

They are lazy, break the “rules” for convenience and for profit and for power and influence and ... for any reason they need. So, given Hillary has no morals (other than profit and power), she DOES demand that emails be printed.

Then immediately erased, probably. (So there is no record - in their ignorant little minds.)

The PC Huma uses for “easy printing” is hooked up to the printer all the time, and is shared between Huma and the Weiner when she is at home. I do that at home to print airline tickets and hotel reservations on the laser printer. (I ALSO do NOT send company info to my personal email account!)

He is a bored sex addict.

Huma’s emails, thus Hillary’s Secretary of State emails and decisions, are on the sex addict’s hard drive.

Maybe the font was too small ;) Perhaps Huma literally means Hillary couln’t see the text on the mail and she needed a larger font to “see” it.

A sudden and unexpected fatal encounter with a bridge abutment or center divider palm tree, perhaps?

Or (”old school”), radioactive baloney in the refrigerator?

Comey’s just playing a little CYA.

He’s having sweat-flop nightmares of a Trump win and what’ll happen to his own miserable career with Trump in the White House

They discussed yoga pants, physical fitness and girl stuff.

Seriously, that’s been the party line all along.

Nothing to see her and its time to move on.

The timing at least lines up for a Saturday Night Massacre from the Watergate era.

“Clinton could not have known what device her aide was using to transmit electronic information to her.”

In the real world, that’s immaterial. It still her department and she owns the responsibility for its failings. Those people were her subordinates and ensuring they followed proper procedures was on her.

But of course, this isn’t the “real” world, but a bizarro existence that shields the Chosen Few like the Clintons from accountability for anything.

Abedin...found the government network technology to be cumbersome, and she had great trouble printing documents there

This claim is pure nonsense. I have an IT background so can state this categorically. There's no mysterious "cumbersome" technology involved in setting up network printers. In fact, someone high up in an organization, like Abedin, could (and probably did) have a printer in her office.

Someone from tech support helps the big shot map their computer to the printer and voila! All the big shot has to do is point and click on PRINT in whatever software was being used, and out the page(s) would pop. Even the spoiled brat types of this world, like Hillary Clintons and Huma Abedins can do that all by their widdle biddy lonesome.

There will be hell to pay if the same decision is reached the second time. Comey has really boxed himself in.

It strains credibility that a cabinet official (and her aide) would not be able to get an IT expert assigned to themselves full time to deal with any issues or inconveniences.

Huma found it difficult to print documents on the government network because many were classified document not intended to be printed.

But Newsweek would prefer keeping Americans in the dark to the total surrender of national security involved in allowing Huma Abedin a position so high in our government.

This was also already known by federal law enforcement, but ignored by FBI Director Comey (as was Huma's personal background)

Security sure is a b!^ch, isn't it?

Think maybe those who can't handle it aren't qualified for jobs that require it?
