People in hell will get ice water before Hillary Clinton is indicted. First of all, the espionage act requires the doccuments to be classified at the time The department of defense has a secure network designed to handle classified info but Hillarys emails all originated from a .gov server. This means, they were not classified at the time After hundreds of freedom of information requetes the emails were then retrospectively classified and that means she's not in breach of any legal acitivty. Let's just say they were classified though for arguments sake, it would then need to be proven she had intent for the doccuments to leak or she was grossly negligent. Considering she hired 3 seperate private IT companies to protect her private server making it safer than the acual government servers made for classified info - this would be virtually impossible to prove.
Don't take my word for it though, take the word of Richard O. Lempert the Eric Stein Distinguished University Professor of Law: http://prospect.org/article/why-hill...legal-analysis
Or we can also look at this all important thing called "legal precedent" - No one has EVER been indicted for doing what Hillary did. http://www.politico.com/story/2016/0...t-cases-221744
Tell your friend to stop using republican BS coupled with Bernie Sanders 20M dollar media blitz to attack Clinton and to start supporting the nominee or get out of the party. |
Yeah this was pretty good
Another thing I noticed was that she was called incompetent because her blackberry apparently wasn't usable on the 7th floor in her office. The fact of the matter is she was hardly in her office to begin with and wasn't the only SoS to use a private email which means that other SoS's forms of communication also would not have worked on the seventh floor or whatever floor they were on at the time.
Second of all the State Department approved of her wanting to use her
personal blackberry instead so that's that.
Finally the Freedom of Informations Act is an act that says if so ordered that information from an agency must be turned over. So to comply with that the State Department instituted it's own beaurocratic law to comply with the act that basically said all hard copy info had to be stored. It didn't have a precedent for emails at her time so it wasn't her fault she didn't print and store the emails as the beaurocratic law would have suggested. In fact she never broke any federal law like Judge Napolatino claims because what she did turn over was enough for them not to charge her with that crime. And if it were enough (which it wasn't) then it's not even a criminal type of statute.
Tell them to stop reading right wing websites for information and wait until the FBI makes its final decision. If they want to know so bad on what's the latest on the case tell them the
FBI can't find evidence she broke any laws and found no criminal wrongdoing. Tell them Judge Napolatino (the one speaking in this video) is a
proven wrong conservative who hates Hillary and said the FBI has enough evidence to convict when someone working IN the investigation said the exact opposite. He has no idea what he's talking about.
Then tell them to **** off and vote Hillary
It's kinda exciting to be honest...
