‘This Is No Longer Secretary Clinton’s State Department’: Judges Wary of Her Deposition Over Emails
The National Law Journal ^ | 06/02/2020 | Jacqueline Thomsen

Posted on 06/02/2020 10:27:57 AM PDT by aimhigh

“If the question is whether there's been an adequate search, what difference does it make what the intent was or reasons for using a private server, or Hillary Clinton’s or anyone else’s understanding of State’s record searching obligations?” Judge Robert Wilkins asked.

A panel of federal appeals judges were doubtful Tuesday of what additional information could be gleaned about Hillary Clinton’s emails if the former secretary of state were to sit for a deposition in a public records case.

On Tuesday, Judicial Watch attorney Ramona Cotca told the court that the group had remaining questions over the handling of the emails. “The issue is identifying all sources where Clinton emails reside, and for the State Department to do an adequate search,” she said. “The State Department now has every incentive to get to the bottom of this if you have any questions, if that’s the case,” Pillard replied. “This is no longer Secretary Clinton’s State Department, this is the Trump State Department."

Bullshit.

Unless and until the last Clinton-era Senior Executive Service member exits the building, it will ALWAYS be Hillary’s fiefdom.

I listened to much of this hearing, earlier today, here....

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NhEfChS59vg&feature=emb_logo

It was a farce, as far as this “judge” was concerned.

I couldn’t believe it when he actually said...What difference does it make....?

I thought the JW was in a bit over her head....was wondering where Tom Fitton was.

Maybe, since it was a phone in hearing, Tom/other JW legal beagles were sitting nearby/assisting.

So, if a bank robber tries to rob a bank and fails, then why hold the robber accountable according to the law? This judge is clearly a Clintonesta and only recognizes the law is to persecute / prosecute the little people. This judge is not fit to be a judge!

We all just need to take a deep breath and remember that this beotch is NEVER going to receive ANY punishment for her numerous Crimes Against Humanity until she sheds her mortal coil.

Then? All bets are OFF! And I’m going to p*ss on her grave. :)

If he’s saying that *intent* is not a necessary element of the crime, he’s right.

I haven’t read the article yet. Not in the mood to get more agitated right now. Maybe later.

It’s an unusual statute because most crimes require both the mens rea (state of mind), and actus reas (the act).

The federal statute that Hillary, by Cardinal Comey’s own acknowledgement, violated requires no evidence of mental state.

That suggests that the crime is so serious, that we, the people, don’t give a rat’s ass how she did it or whether any of it was intentional.

That’s what made the Cardinal’s behavior so egregious. He deliberately misled the entire country about the law, just to let Hillary off the hook. One. More. Time.

There could be a cogent SOL argument in there, though, since there’s no hope that they’ll properly charge the bish with treason.

That’s a useful admission, since *intent* is not an element of the crime.

Wow, going through that exhaustive list — countless physical boxes and gigabytes of documents that Hillary was allowed to remove — really hits home the corruption of Clinton, the State Department, and Obama.
