The FBI submitted a classified declaration to a federal court judge late Friday explaining details about the bureau's "pending investigation" into the use of a private email server by Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton. The declaration addresses why the FBI can't publicly release any records about its probe in response to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit filed by VICE News.

She’d just say it wasn’t her, somebody hacked into her computer. It never ends even when you get caught with your hand in the cookie jar.
I do not expect this to be concluded that quickly, but as long as it is still hanging out there it will be an excellent weapon in Trump’s hands. “I don’t know about an FBI investigation and there is a CRIMINAL investigation ongoing for months; but I can tell you that if an employee of MINE set up a private server storing confidential business information it. He would be FIRED immediately and SUED for violating contractual stipulations.”
Then in any debate, if he even decides to debate the hag, he will NOT allow any “moderator” to get away from this issue or to Candy Crowley him.
While it is easy to become disillusioned about the seemingly glacial pace of this, it is clearer by the day that this is an almost insoluble problem for her.
They didn’t need be “given access”. They need only know that the server _existed_, at which point suitable talent could be hired to acquire the contents while she maintained plausible deniability. A wink-and-nod is enough to assure donations and speaking gigs would occur, involving lots of digits.
I don’t understand your point.
Hillary wanted the government system installed on her other phone. The FBI told her it would be too costly and time consuming to do so for just her phone. They told her she was on her own and couldn't help her if she didn't use the Blackberry.
She didn't, and instead had the server that Bill and she had been using for all the Clinton Foundation stuff moved and set up to give her her own 'email server'.
Note the language used by the geek “no unauthorized access” was found. That to me means there was authorized access. It could be in the manner you speak of but knowing the greed I would assume it would not be available unless the cash was delivered.
I am not bein a smartass but did you read the whole article for starters ?
I agree Trump should make this an issue every day of the campaign but continued bashing is going to be of limited usefulness without the hard evidence of an investigation to back it up.
I see little chance of Hussein not being able to run out a clock. But she is not going to escape the consequences when he is the nominee.
Yes, I did. How would the plaintiff matter?
Just tell me what you are thinking.
Then you agree a foia request was made,correct ? So the next question would be,who requested, then what happened and why
Well the Judge refused the lawful request on grounds of factual evidence not allowed in the media group knowledge via a foia request
My theory is that the server was sort of a spy smorgasbord.
Contributors to the Foundation were given access and take what was of interest. This way there are no specific information requests which could compromise Mrs Cosby.
I agree.
Well there are going to be consequences certainly for the FBI as well in terms of its reputation and politicizing the process is this all goes down for her in the middle of a general election campaign.
A request is only that, and this one is not likely to be granted.
I understand the urge for brevity but some things have to be spelled out to be understandable.
And she could be next POTUS! I find that absolutely mind boggling, and it shows just how much these pukes do not care about this country. If she isn’t indicted, I hope the FBI leaks like crazy, let the people see first hand the kind of government they got.
A definitions of "pending" is "on-going" or "open".
Case dismissed - Trump screams POLITICS, Corruption, Favoritism.
Case continues - Trump quietly, but firmly and consistently intones about just how serious this CRIMINAL investigation must be to have taken so long. “Just what massive breaches of National Security have occurred that require such secrecy” “What is she hiding? “Why are several Congressional investigations ongoing?”|
This is gold, Jerry, gold.
My mind stopped being boggleable when an ineligible man was sworn in without anyone speaking up. That marked the end of the constitution as for as the Establishment is concerned now it will only follow it if it is in its interest to do so.
