How Much Trouble Is Hillary Clinton In? - O'Reilly Talking Points
(Excerpt) Read more at youtube.com ...
I disagree with Giuliani on the indictment. The people who make up the pool of Grand Jurors in the fed DC Circuit are mostly liberal, Democrat and minority. These people are the “heart” of HRC supporters. A prosecutor would really have a hard time getting a True Bill out of them, even if the prosecutor wanted one on her. And we all know the DOJ doesn’t want to indict her. I put the odds of an indictment at LESS than 1%. INSTEAD the Grand Jury will NOT indict and HRC and the DOJ will both whitewash the whole thing.
Why couldn’t they use a grand jury in Kansas?
the DOJ does not need a Grand Jury to indict
(although they might hide behind that process to excuse themselves when they do not indict)
That's what I'm hoping for. 1) If she's indicted before the convention, the Dems field a better team. 2) If she's indicted after the convention, the Dems are screwed but Obama gets to pardon her. 3) If she's not indicted, when Trump wins he appoints a real AG and the wheels of justice take down the whole rotten Clinton edifice.
Wouldn't that be grand!
How much trouble she is in depends 100% on how much trouble Hussein wants her to be in. He might just want the leverage over her so that he is the Valerie Jarrett to a Clinton presidency.
He may already have recommended indictment. How would we know? It doesn’t have to be a public or publicized recommendation.
They can use a grand jury in any federal district where the offense took place. And probably some of her use of her private email may have been in Kansas. BUT, remember, the DOJ doesn't want to indict. They won't be forum shopping for a GJ that will indict. They are happy to go before a DC grand jury and get a "No Bill" and then report that the grand jury found there was no evidence of wrongdoing. Hill and the DOJ are off the hook.
I believe what you are saying is they do not have to indict with a Grand Jury to INITIATE criminal proceedings. That is correct. They could commence with a Criminal Information.
But they won't do that as they do not want to prosecute her. Rather, they go before a friendly Grand Jury, submit the evidence in such a manner as to assure no True Bill, ergo no Indictment, and all criminals (DOJ and HRC) come out smelling like roses.
That's what I'm hoping for. 1) If she's indicted before the convention, the Dems field a better team. 2) If she's indicted after the convention, the Dems are screwed but Obama gets to pardon her. 3) If she's not indicted, when Trump wins he appoints a real AG and the wheels of justice take down the whole rotten Clinton edifice.

I don't believe any of these 3 scenarios will play out. The DOJ isn't going to indict her, so that washes out items 1 and 2. As for #3, Trump going after her, I really don't see that happening. Obama will pardon her as he heads out the door. He wants to keep her quiet IMO. I assume she has plenty of dirt on him too.
How did it happen that only an administration appointed official can indict another administration official?
Is that not a blatant, in your face, flashing red siren, air raid alert horn conflict of interest?
I thought he said he would make a public announcement. ?
I guess the framers never thought there would be so many crooks in the gummit?
Well that's my point, Obama can't pardon her if she's not indicted or convicted. American wins.
Ford pardoned Nixon without an indictment, I believe.

Nixon was in fact charged by the House of Representatives.

5:40 into the youtube video is the most damning. “once she used this phone to to conduct govt business it stopped being a private phone...”
Well that's my point, Obama can't pardon her if she's not indicted or convicted. American wins.
I do not believe that is a correct statement of law. See, Ford's pardon of Nixon, Ex parte Garland, 71 U.S. 333 (1866) and Burdick v. United States, 236 U.S. 79 (1915)
The same way the GOP wrapped up investigations into Whitewater, Ron Brown, Vince Foster, Fast & Furious, Operation Cast-a-way, the IRS persecution of conservatives, the New Black Panther Party voter suppression, the "vetting" of Zer0 etc. They will just go silent and it will wither, die, turn to dust and be blown away by the wind.
BTW, who hired Craig Livingstone
5:40 into the youtube video is the most damning. once she used this phone to to conduct govt business it stopped being a private phone...

I caught that also wondering if a President Trump would pursue Hillary prosecution.
