@Frederick:
Here's the facts:
Hillary ILLEGALLY kept a server in her house containing hundreds of thousands of digital documents (which is a Federal Crime).
Nope. It wasn't a crime to have a private server (which, by the by, the government doesn't differentiate from a private email address) in the first place. In fact, the number of people who have private email addresses in government is… more or less everyone of note. Including most people in the current administration. Nor was any
@Frederick:
These documents included those from her tenure as Secretary of State during the 2008-2012 tenure of Osama (and Benghazi).
Her house was not a secure location, nor was it safe from cyber attacks, nor did she have permission to do that.
The people Hillary hired to set up her server and maintain it.. and access it, and DELETE things had NO security clearance.
Congress ORDERED Hillary to turn over 30,000 e-mails from that server.
AFTER being ORDERED to turn over the e-mails, Hillary hired a private company with no security clearance to destroy the evidence.
Those actions amount to treason, obstruction of justice, lying to Congress, and other crimes - all of which should have her in prison.
Of course none of that ever happened. What actually happened was that she went over all the emails and turned over all the ones that were work related and deleted all the ones that were personal. And she turned over lots of stuff she didn't have to, as anyone who read the emails knows, hence why there are emails asking about the times of TV shows or sending birthday greetings. And, additionally, her emails would be archived by the people she sent them to.
Again, none of this is a crime, and no one before Comey made his announcement (except far right-wing conspiracy sites) thought she was going to be indicted, let alone tried and found guilt.
@Frederick:
Trump wanted those e-mails recovered, to show that Hillary is a crook.
A crook who has managed to keep all evidence of her crookedness hidden for decades now. I would like to ask how many investigations into Hillary Clinton that turn up nothing will have to take place before you admit there was nothing there in the first place?
@Frederick:
Hillary then took the extra step of not only deleting those e-mails but made sure they could not be recovered by using "bleach bit" software.
Who had the "Bleach bit!" square on the Bingo board?
@Frederick:
Eventually, the dozen or more agencies investigating the e-mails determined that Hillary's rogue server in her house had been hacked by at LEAST 5 different countries and other parties not tied to a government.
Nope. Actually the State department's servers got hacked. There was zero evidence that any of Clinton's private equipment got hacked (hence why Russia didn't release the emails Trump asked for). If anything her equipment was more secure than the government's.
@Frederick:
Duplicates of many of those e-mails were found on the computer of pedophile Anthony Weiner who is the husband of Huma Abedin (who is Hillary's top aide and rumored lesbian lover).
They were client side copies.
@Frederick:
WikiLeaks began publishing batches of these e-mails which were extremely damaging to Hillary.
They weren't in and of themselves. There was nothing remotely damaging in them. All the damage was done because the media kept reporting on emails even though there wasn't a story there. The Hillary Clinton email saga was actually three different things, none of which actually amounted to a real scandal. So for a year and a half all the public heard was "Hillary Clinton something something something emails." And that was the damage.
@Frederick:
She wisely didn't even attempt to refute these e-mails, but started waving the "Red Flag" and claiming that Russia was trying to destroy her.
Several times, the head of WikiLeaks stated that the source of the e-mails was NOT a state run agency, NOT Russia.. and Assange has a reputation for never lying.
Of course he does. He has a reputation for being a pathological liar. He will say or do anything for attention. Anywho, the hacking has been confirmed by anyone who looked at the evidence to be obviously Russia's handiwork.
I was going to take the time to reply to Loki100, but he is so full of shit that he doesn't deserve a response.
