State Department Inspector General’s report demolishes Hillary’s excuses

Truncated title.

Full title: State Department Inspector General’s report demolishes Hillary’s excuses about her private email server

The 83 page State Department Inspector General’s report on Hillary Clinton’s private email server puts the lie to many of Hillary Clinton’s repeated claims about her unprecedented private email server. No, it was not permitted, and she never asked. And if she had asked, she would have been told it was not permitted. Even the Washington Post editorial board is appalled, publishing a collective rebuke titled, “Clinton’s inexcusable, willful disregard for the rules.”

The “rules” she disregarded were adopted to implement federal law, the Federal Records Act, so in effect she was violating the law, even thought the IG’s report deliberately avoids saying so. So Hillary’s repeated claims that her use of the private email system was permitted is a blatant lie.

So, too, is her claim that she has cooperated with investigators. She and her top aides all declined to be interviewed by the IG investigators. Andrew McCarthy, a formed Assistant US Attorney explains that this is in effect taking the Fifth.

Clinton is a liar. It is proven. Only the corrupt Obama administration keeps her out of prison.

So, she lied. Then she lied about the lies. Then she lied about the lies about the lies.

I envision Hillary as going farther and farther out on the limb with each lie. Time for chainsaw Trump to do what he does best.

All this proves is that the State Department Inspector General is a womenphobe.

But no action is expected from the DOJ.

For you, a haiku:

A big departure
From her normal lies: “Huma
Sets my groin on fire!”

If by “recorded”
You mean “Films our scissoring”
Huma answers “yes”

You spurred another haiku:

The single question that rolls around inside my head like a Vince Foster round, is..... Why did Bill allow Hillary to do what she did at State? Bill is not that stupid.

No, Bill is not stupid, but he is certainly greedy. Tens of millions worth of greed and all at the cost of breaking a few inconsequential rules.

Notice how they keep saying “rules” over and over? This is a deliberate attempt to conceal the fact that she has broken many laws

I’m not sure Billy Boy knows enough about email to have a clue.

I think because there is too much to sweep under the rug, they came out with this. It will be spun as her improperly disposing of old e-mails. Late night tv and liberal talk shows will make fun of it, and say it is no big deal. She’ll get her wrist slapped, and it will fall into the “that’s old news” file.

While both are excellent, I prefer the “Feature, not a bug” meditation. I think the voters will decide that it’s a bug after all.
