Her fat ass could still get the slammer from on-going investigations into Clinton Foundation/Uranium One/State Dept. Pay to Play.

Laws are only for the chumps, not them.
/////////////////////////////////////////////

We cannot allow the example of the Clintons getting off.
It is not a joke.

Allowing arrogant liberals to flaunt their breaking of the law and remain liberal icons beloved like the Obamas later is NOT acceptable.

We must not let that stand.
I faintly remember tens of thousands around the country saying of Hillary:
LOCK HER UP

Hopefully not, but I wonder what the statue of limitations is?

The whole argument, by Baker, Comey et al is nonsensical. The law in question does not require intent. It only requires the fact of mishandling of classified. Intent is pretty obvious, by shrillery and her people. Their actions make it clear.

Many people have been convicted of the same law over the past twenty years, with no requirement to show intent.

Odd, the whole damn country thinks she should be in prison too. Nice to hear the general counsel is on the same page.

Intent isn’t required under the law in question. Any attempt to give her a pass based on “intent” is nothing short of a lie.

This is the result of the democrats filling as many government agencies and positions with democrats as they could. It’s also part of why the Republicans are known as the stupid party, as they watched it happen over decades, and did nothing. When democrats can’t win elections fairly, election boards and judges can do the job. It’s why democrats are never held accountable for wrongdoing, unless they go against their party. But Republicans can be prosecuted with phony charges. The percentage of government employees who are democrat is hugely disproportionate. It’s why the GOP acts like the lapdog for democrats, they realize they have no power, and moved over to the darkside.

Her intent was premeditated when she established the illegal server to circumvent government oversight.

“... if there had been more evidence Clinton had intended to skirt the law...”
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Huh? and WTF?
So Baker outs himself as another LIAR.
How could they have decided there was not enough evidence? There was actually TOO MUCH evidence.
So Baker’s life and that of his family must have been ______________ (fill in the blank).

we, the government, could not establish beyond a reasonable doubt that — she had the intent necessary to violate (the law).”

So I can rob a bank and not get prosecuted if I state that didn't intend to, it was an accident?

Intent merely means that she intended to use a non-government server. It doesn’t matter if she knew it was right or wrong, or whether the material should be classified.

The only way to have no intent would be if she was duped into thinking that clintonemail.com was a gov’t maintained and operated domain.

The old intent ruse.

Intent has NO baring; she either broke the law or she did not.

Thought ...THOUGHT? Any one with half a brain and common sense KNEW there was/is A MOUNTAIN OF COMPELLING EVIDENCE DEMANDING AN INVESTIGATION, PROSECUTION AND A LENGTHY PRISON SENTENCE. Literally MILLIONS UPON MILLIONS of Americans already know this:

"LOCK HER UP!"

Remind me about the timing of getting talked out of his initial determination and Bill Clinton’s famous tarmac meeting.
