The bad legal news for Hillary Clinton continued to cascade upon her presidential hopes during the past week in what has amounted to a perfect storm of legal misery. Here is what happened.
Last week, Mrs. Clinton’s five closest advisors when she was Secretary of State, four of whom remain close to her and have significant positions in her presidential campaign, were interrogated by the FBI. These interrogations were voluntary, not under oath, and done in the presence of the same legal team which represented all five aides.
The atmosphere was confrontational, as the purpose of the interrogations is to enable federal prosecutors and investigators to determine whether these five are targets or witnesses. Stated differently, the feds need to decide if they should charge any of these folks as part of a plan to commit espionage, or if they will be witnesses on behalf of the government should there be such a prosecution; or witnesses for Mrs. Clinton.
In the same week, a federal judge ordered the same five persons to give videotaped testimony in a civil lawsuit against the State Department which once employed them in order to determine if there was a “conspiracy” — that’s the word used by the judge — in Mrs. Clinton’s office to evade federal transparency laws. Stated differently, the purpose of these interrogations is to seek evidence of an agreement to avoid the Freedom of Information Act requirements of storage and transparency of records, and whether such an agreement, if it existed, was also an agreement to commit espionage — the removal of state secrets from a secure place to a non-secure place.

Not Holding Breath.

Obama knows that and the justice hammer will fall before the elections.
Looks like a money laundry was possible with that much loose cash.
Oh great.. And to think Hillary is subject to BIGTIME BLACKMAIL BY PUTIN OVER HER EMAILS and she’ll give herself all the clearances she wants when she’s president.
I like cake...especially if it's in chocolate CUPCAKE form. LOVE the frosting the most.
There are never any guarantees who is going to win. Hillary would be the worst president of any of those, by far.
It’s just a matter of time tick .... Tock
Seems like big-bombshell-coming-soon stories tend to fizzle.
“If Hitlery wins, her worthless hubby will be back a-boinking anything that doesn’t move.”
Have you seen that loser lately? It wouldn’t take much to put him in stroke territory. He already looks like a walking cadaver.
Why THANK YOU. You've made my day! :o)
Have they been working with the Cold Case Posse?...
