The leaking of the Clinton emails has been compared to as the next "Watergate" by former U.S. Attorney Joe DiGenova this week, if current FBI investigations don't proceed in an appropriate manner. The revelation comes after more emails from Hilary Clinton's personal email have come to light.
"[The investigation has reached] a critical mass," DiGenova told radio host Laura Ingraham when discussing the FBI’s still pending investigation. Though Clinton is still yet to be charged with any crime, DiGenova advised on Tuesday that changes may be on the horizon. The mishandling over the classified intelligence may lead to an imminent indictment, with DiGenova suggesting it may come to a head within 60 days.
"I believe that the evidence that the FBI is compiling will be so compelling that, unless [Lynch] agrees to the charges, there will be a massive revolt inside the FBI, which she will not be able to survive as an attorney general, he said."The intelligence community will not stand for that. They will fight for indictment and they are already in the process of gearing themselves to basically revolt if she refuses to bring charges."
The infamous emails documented extrajudicial killings by the U.S. allied rebels, and substantiated motives for warring with Libya as underlined by energy resources, gold, and silver.
One email dated 2011 describes in the strictest confidence "One rebel commander stated that his troops continue to summarily execute all foreign mercenaries captured in the fighting." It continues to describe the training that some rebels received from the Egyptian Special Forces units, while French Operations troops worked along the Libyan border from Egyptian bases. "These troops are overseeing the transfer of weapons and supplies to the rebels."
Amnesty International, in 2012, had reported on their discovery of militia (rebel) abuses of civilians and anyone potentially associated with the Gadhafi regime. In a report, it documented torture and abuse of detainees in militia-run facilities: whips, cables, and plastic hoses were used to beat the detainees who were also subjected to electrical shocks.
DiGenova emphasized the seriousness of Clinton's situation during the interview. "I believe that that charges must be brought by Attorney General Loretta Lynch," he explained, "[If Lynch chooses not to indict Clinton] It will be like Watergate. It will be unbelievable."
Doubtful, but we can only hope.
I’m sue Obama/Lynch would love to fire half or three-quarters of the entire FBI agent force and management and replace them with hope-and-changers.
She is a member of the ruling class and they never have to answer for their crimes.
Seeing is believing...
I'll believe it when I see it. With Obama in charge, neither Military officers, nor FBI Agents will resign their careers over any issue of principle.
Discussing who will enter the bathroom first.
Not gonna happen.
Uhhuh, pension shmenshion, I’m quitting over this.
If Hillary were a Republican there would be a rush to judgement and howls from the media demanding she be held accountable. With Hillary being the darling of the media and the DOJ thoroughly politicized NOTHING will happen no matter how brazen the crimes and corruption uncovered in the FBI investigation.
IIRC, Watergate was somewhat different--Congress forced the appointment of a Special Prosecutor (Archibald Cox). Then Nixon ordered the AG to fire the Special Prosecutor. Two AGs resigned.
I don't see that chain of events here, and our Black Teflon administration (and AG) might be able to slide here, leaks and protests notwithstanding.
The wild card is the MSM. Will they publicize the leaks or suppress them? Will they whip up sentiment, or just downplay it and blame it on Rush and FOX?
The only principle in the federal government is "do whatever it takes to keep your job, to hell with everything else."
I see it every day where I work. The chain of command is broken. There's no accountability.
The internet didn’t play a part then. With the internet, the info bypasses the media and leaves them playing catch up. The media ends up looking and being irrelevant.
Those words again , “Could Be” meaning never
Uhhuh, pension shmenshion, I’m quitting over this.

Any FBI agent with the integrity to resign over illegal activities by the Obama regime’s DOJ would be substantially enhancing their attractiveness for HIGHLY PAID private sector work. Plus, under a Trump or Cruz presidency, they could likely be brought back to the FBI with HIGH HONORS and, in some cases, BACK PAY.
0’s arrogant body language.
Revolt? What are they going to do, invade GIBSON Guitars again?
I have to say I don’t believe the FBI revolt angle to this story. This seems like disinformation to me, to what purpose I haven’t been able to deduce.
Seems like it is trying to throw the public off the trail, sit back and relax the FBI has us covered ... they would never allow any serious wrongdoing to go undisclosed.
I’m just not buying it.
Not having a fraction of the love of country that Nixon did, there is little chance she would do the right thing and resign. Notice too that no media outlets ever asked her this simple question: "Would you resign as President if you faced indictment like Nixon did". For God's sake, that is the ticket to stardom for a real reporter.
Speaking of that, I wonder if anyone has looked into Hillary's spoken words about Nixon while she was a staffer on the Watergate lynch mob, especially fruitful would be to look for her criticizing incursions into Cambodia. Am I Right? Secret War, No Congressional Authorization, more stuff for a real journalist to mine. Libya alone places her beyond Nixon's wildest adventures. Hey Kissinger, wake up you old fool.
