Dead Enders Still Hoping For HRC Indictment So BS Will Win

9. Could Hillary Clinton really be indicted over her emails?

Stewart, a former air force B1-bomber pilot, adds: “If I had behaved that way in the military, I would be very concerned about my legal future.”

State department and intelligence officials have identified 2,093 email chains from Clinton’s server as containing classified information. Twenty-two were deemed so highly classified that they were withheld from release to the public. Clinton contends that none of the messages was marked classified at the time.

But former US attorney Joseph DiGenova is blunt: “I don’t think there’s any question Mrs Clinton and her staff broke the law. She maintained a server in her private home in Chappaqua, New York, and conducted government business. This clearly was beyond gross negligence.

“When she set up the server, the intent was to avoid accountability. There is no other intent required. The notion this is not a violation of the law is ludicrous. If she and her staff get a pass, there will be hell to pay in the intelligence community.”

A critical editorial in the Washington Post said last month: “While not illegal behavior, it was disturbingly unmindful of the rules. In the middle of the presidential campaign, we urge the FBI to finish its own investigation soon, so all information about this troubling episode will be before the voters.”

So how likely is it that Clinton will be indicted when the FBI hands its report to the Department of Justice?
…
He says: “There’s been a large push online to say this investigation is over and Hillary Clinton has been cleared and nothing’s going to happen. I think that’s total bullshit in that no one knows what’s happening at the FBI and, if they did, they [the FBI or those outside the bureau with knowledge of the investigation] broke the law.

“I would hope that if the FBI determines that she has broken the law, she will be indicted. I would hope that we have the strength and courage as a country to hold everyone to the law.”

Dan Metcalfe, a Democrat who served as director of the Department of Justice’s Office of Information and Privacy for more than 25 years, wrote in a column last month: “So what you must contemplate, as a leader of the Democratic Party, is the very real possibility of your likely presidential candidate actually being indicted, on criminal charges, sometime between now and, say, (a) the time of the convention at the end of July; (b) the time of the general election in early November; or (c) Inauguration Day in January. Which possibility would you prefer?”

Is anyone else in the line of fire?

Yes. Clinton’s former chief of staff Cheryl Mills and her deputy Huma Abedin have both been interviewed by the FBI during the investigation and could be in more trouble than she is.

The nameless former government lawyer says: “Aides of hers are, sadly, in jeopardy.
