Hillary Is Guilty but Unlikely to Face Obama DOJ Prosecution

Online media is chattering about the FBI's investigation into Hillary Clinton's email server and her handling of classified information, saying it's almost finished. Often, the media repeats the statement that there is no evidence that she wilfully violated the law, in what feels like an effort to prepare us for the whitewashing of Hillary. The statement seems to have originated with CNN, the network that acts as if it were a Hillary Super PAC, so we could dismiss it as electioneering by CNN for its Anointed One. ~~~~~ Much more worrisome are comments by President Obama minimizing his former Secretary of State's diversion of emails from government-secured servers to her private non-secure home server by saying it was “careless." Obama is a lawyer, and even mediocre lawyers know that carelessness is a type of negligence. Further, as President, Obama knows, or is bound by his office to know, that 'espionage' -- the failure to protect state secrets by removing them from their proper place of custody -- is a rare federal crime -- it can be proved by gross negligence, the failure to perform a high legal duty when that failure carries with it the great probability of an improper result. An example would be leaving a backyard swimming pool uncovered and unfenced while knowing that young children often play in that backyard. The high legal duty of the swimming pool owner is to protect the young children because the failure of doing so would likely be the death-by-drowning of a child. Clinton had the high legal duty to protect state secrets and the failure of doing so would likely be the exposure of state secrets contained in her emails. ~~~~ What did she do that was grossly negligent -- i.e., criminal under the statute? Clinton knowingly diverted all her government emails from secure government servers to her own private non-secure server at her New York residence. In the 60,000 emails she diverted were 2,200 containing state secrets. Because the essence of espionage is the removal of secrets to non-secure venues, the crime is complete upon removal. This means the case against Hillary is made simply by proving diversion of all her official emails, including some containing state secrets, to a non-secure server. ~~~~~ Obama’s statement that Clinton caused no harm is irrelevant -- the government doesn't need to prove the defendant caused harm. So, Obama’s effort on Fox News to criticize the law's classifying of secrets into “confidential,” “secret” and “top secret," -- saying “there’s classified and then there’s classified” -- is wrong and Obama knows it. He earlier obeyed his duty to enforce federal laws by telling his Department of Justice to prosecute under the same espionage law a sailor who took a selfie inside a nuclear submarine and sent it to his girlfriend and a Marine lieutenant who correctly warned his superiors about an al-Qaida operative masquerading as an Afghan cop in a US encampment but mistakenly used his Gmail account to send the emergency warning. The evidence of Clinton’s failure to protect state secrets is far more overwhelming than these two cases because it went on for four years, and secrets too serious for the FBI to review came from her own unsecure server. ~~~~~ Dear readers, there is no instance of unprosecuted behavior involving such a huge volume and regularity of failure to protect state secrets. The FBI is now conducting interviews with Clinton’s aides, including longtime confidante Huma Abedin. Clinton is expected to be interviewed by the FBI in coming weeks, if she agrees. She could instead reach a settlement that would let her plead guilty to one misdemeanor count and pay a fine. General Petraeus did that, using the same lawyer Hillary has -- but Pertaeus was put on probation. Has anyone ever run for President while on federal probation? I think not. But, short of a plea bargain, nobody will predict that President Obama will allow the Justice Department to prosecute Hillary. The highly politicized Obama DOJ will once more refuse to serve justice. But voters will have the last word.

    What is the truth about Hillary Clinton?

    Well we all know what it shows, don’t we? Hillary Clinton is a thieving, money hungry, dishonest low life politician who only got to be a politician by riding the coat tails of her no account womanizing husband Bill Clinton.

    In her entire adult life she has accomplished nothing except the acquiring of monies that all have been gained via dishonest and unlawful schemes. Her total aim in her life has been acquiring of as much money as possible by any means possible.

    Let’s not be swayed by this self-anointment of the term “The Smartest Women Alive.”

    Cunning doesn’t equate smartness. Dis-honest doesn’t equate smartness. Blackmailing doesn’t equate smartness. Thievery doesn’t, nor does treason equate to smartness.

    The truth about Hillary Clinton shows she has a law degree-but isn’t a lawyer by any standard. Her most celebrated case is when she got a rapist off for the raping of a very young child in Arkansas and is shown on tape laughing about it in celebration.

    Almost any choice for President other than Hillary Clinton would be better for the United States. No, any choice even Bernie Sanders with all his life long fascination with socialism and all its destructiveness to the human advancement.

  2. The world is setting at the convergence of where Good and Evil come face to face, and there is only one possible winner. Good either puts evil back into its caves in the mountains between Afghanistan & Pakistan for Milleniums or Good fails to exists and evil triumphs.

    Is a person like Hillary Clinton the one to be leading the forces of the free world, the one who needs to stabilize the economic atmosphere? Is she even the one who understands democracy, freedoms, and Rule of Law, or is she in fact at home and very comfortable with the forces of evil?

    Hillary Clinton doesn’t understand a thing about the wishes of the American people. Hillary Clinton (I think) truly believes that the disbandment of our democratic form of government in favor of Sharia Law driven Autocratic government can be made seamlessly, when in fact the likes of Hillary Clinton will be the first to be muzzled. Her much sought after wealth will be gone. Her palatial life style will be gone. Her influence vanished.

  3. Inside the Beltway around Washington DC there is a saying …”Do you have a get out of jail free card”? Of course the card is used symbolically. There are no such cards. But there is information that can do people all kinds of ‘good’, even staying out of jail or at least a court room while they are in the midst of a presidential campaign.

    Such is the case with Hillary and Obama, and his Department of Justice (DOJ). And as the days pass and Hillary keeps escaping being charged with a variety of charges possible covering (if only her 2 latest punishable acts Benghazi and her email treasonous transmissions of classified documents) a life of skirting legal reprimand, leads one to believe that indeed Hillary has one such symbolic cards.

    And on her card must be some very incriminating information about Barrack Obama. Because why else would he restrain his DOJ/Attorney General from doing their Constitutional duty?

    Yes, Hillary it seems is “BLACKMAILING” Obama.

  4. What if the conventional wisdom regarding the ostensible differences between conservative vs. liberal, or Democrat vs. Republican no longer applies?

    The conventional wisdom for years has been that the Republicans wave the flag, and the Democrat’s burn the flag. Republicans stand for the Constitution, and the Democrat’s want to tear it up and start all over again. Lower taxes Republicans, and tax & spend (more) Democratic. And the list goes on with every item being ‘for’ and ‘against’. Un complicated- clear cut differences. None of Bill Clinton’s “depends on what the meaning of is, is” word games.

    Along comes the GOP with at one point 17 possible candidates for president, and the winner seems to be an outsider who is more left of center than any republican, but is very conservative on protecting our borders, trade, jobs, and family values.

    On the democratic side there are two very out spoken ‘socialists’ (at least) that want to trash the Constitution, would pick up on Sharia law, and thinks allowing terrorist free entry into the United States is acceptable to required.

    Robert W. Merry (a journalist) writes “It is nationalists vs. globalists.” The republicans are the nationalists, except for the neocons that wish to be thought of as Conservative Republican’s.

    2016 presidential election will be known as the election when millions, and millions, and millions of Americans said (when they vote) 5 simple words … I want my county back.

  5. The Clinton Foundation’s finances are so messy that the nation’s most influential charity watchdog put it on its “watch list” of problematic nonprofits last month. The Clinton family’s mega-charity took in more than $140 million in grants and pledges in 2013 but spent just $9 million on direct aid. The group spent the bulk of its windfall on administration, travel, and salaries and bonuses, with the fattest payouts going to family friends.

    It has been uncovered by the same Wall Street analyst that uncovered General Electric’s errors prior to its crash in 2008 that uncovered financial discrepancies at General Electric before its stock crashed in 2008 claims the Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation has a number of irregularities in its tax records and could be violating state laws.

    Charles Ortel ( a long time financial adviser) has spent the 15 months digging into the “public” records of the Clinton Foundation and says … “this is a charity fraud.”

    I site this as just one example of how the Clinton’s (all 3 of them) have perched themselves above the law, the law of money, classified government documents, enticement of foreign companies/governments, misuse of FBI & IRS documents, even Bill Clintons womanizing problems that Hillary helped to cover up for her own political welfare (after all an impeached president in jail lends little to the wife’s political life).

    Think long and hard about voting for Hillary Clinton – she (they) are serious trouble in troubled times already.
