Wrong.

The State Department IG's report found that the problems were systemic - i.e. not confined to Clinton.

The FBI will issue a similar report that is critical but finds no culpability on the part of Clinton, and it will be dropping soon.

The indictment fairy is still not coming.

Also, note in the Inspector General's report was the statement that although earlier SoS's used some outside email services, since their time State Department rules had been significantly tightened. Hillary's actions went far beyond those of her predecessors even with tighter rules prohibiting those actions.

The Inspector General was not making a criminal probe, so the legality issues weren't pursued. The FBI is making a criminal probe and legality is what is being considered. There is a good chance the FBI will recommend indictment.

The Denial Wizard is going to be wrong.

“We also acknowledge the report’s finding that compliance with email and records management guidance has been inconsistent across several administrations,” it said.

she fucking lied when she publicly and loudly said that she would be happy to "talk to anybody, anytime" about the matter and encourage her staff to do the same and then turn around and decline to "talk to anybody, anytime" about the matter in the State Department review, a department she was the head of. That's what your backing and twisting yourself into a pretzel to make it seem okay. There's the fucking beef dude, she's not trustworthy and makes stupid decisions.

This report does lay out findings that she violated state Dept rules, knowingly and intentionally, and these findings will be given deference by courts.

rules that were not applicable when Powell and rice were in office. That she did so knowingly. And intentionally. And that notwithstanding the change in rules, what she did was far more egregious.

Please kick and rec and kick again the threads about investigations...

...there are several out there right now that need a lot of attention simply because they are so important and because Camp Weathervane has gotten instructions not to post on them to get them to sink out of sight.

Octafish has a new thread about the Foundation's accounting

There are several threads related to the letter to Obama from the Intelligence professionals regarding the FBI investigation and the reasons why it should be speeded up.

I will come back with the links to these.

And remember....we warned them this was coming. They choose to ridicule and dismiss.

The thread is EASILY found, but I was called a liar so I posted this link. I've seen posts hidden for callouts if a link is provided from another poster, so that's why I posted this. Thank you.
