There is only so much a Congressman can do.

And,they don't appear to even be doing that much.

Gowdy should file a criminal complaint from his committee and then publicly demand Holder arrest her, and when he doesn’t, file a writ of mandamus requesting the Court force him to arrest her.

Gowdy CAN do this and there is zero reason for him not to, except to protect Hillary. And as an experienced prosecutor he knows this like the back of his hand. If he doesn’t act he’s complicit, and there’s no two ways about it. She just spit right in his face.

Bridegate supposedly important in confirming Christie’s past bully behavior,but no MSM attention to a career of Clinton lies.
Remember Sandy the Burglar,anyone ever figure out what was so damaging to the Clinton crime Family that be stuffed National Archives documents in his pants and socks.

I thought this sort of stuff was almost always recoverable with a deep enough forensic investigation of the computer or server or whatever.

Nope. I used to think that too until I needed it. When I worked for a major federal legislative body, a subcontractor for a major aerospace corp had the contract for office computer maintenance within the entity I worked for. A fresh-out-of-school maintenance technician re-imaged the drives on my office computer without creating an independent backup. After the shouting had died down the major defense contractor took the hard drive and sent it to several super secret data recovery labs within a major federal agency. Each one came back with the same result - nothing. Just a megabyte or so of random clips of text picked up here and there from the missing gigabytes of data.

When I asked about the rumored ability to reconstruct any deleted data on any device I was told by a well-placed specialist that's a myth.

So true.

Nothing will happen to Hillary, nothing will happen to her flunkies.

The media will shrug its collective shoulders and Hillary’s supporters will be out, fist in the air, foaming at the mouth.

Nothing will happen to this criminal.

I’m sure Trey Gowdy is doing everything he can to help her cover up the illegal acts of the leadership of BOTH PARTIES, otherwise he would exercise the Authority CONGRESS HAS. HE IS COMPLICIT, as are the rest of them. How many pieces of Silver did you get Trey??

Congress has ALL the power in washington, the executive and judicial branch operate according to the whims of CONGRESS!

Congress can Remove the President
Congress can remove the head of every executive agency
Congress can remove ALL of their employees
Congress can Abolish every agency they so choose
Congress can remove EVERY JUDGE IN AMERICA, including every supreme court justice.
Congress can abolish every federal court except the supreme Court
Congress can decide which cases the Judicial Branch can hear and decide
CONGRESS can Imprison ANYONE they want for any reason they so desire for as long as they wish.
Congress can declare WAR

No other governing body has even 10% of the power CONGRESS has!!

CONGRESS IS ALLOWING ALL OF IT!!!

Congress has the authority to arrest and imprison those found in Contempt. The power extends throughout the United States and is an inherent power (does not depend upon legislated act)

If found in Contempt the person can be arrested under a warrant of the Speaker of the House of Representatives or President of the Senate, by the respective Sergeant at Arms.

Statutory criminal contempt is an alternative to inherent contempt.

Under the inherent contempt power Congress may imprison a person for a specific period of time or an indefinite period of time, except a person imprisoned by the House of Representatives may not be imprisoned beyond adjournment of a session of Congress.

Imprisonment may be coercive or punitive.

Contempt of Congress.....Hillolita may yet do time.

But the fact is that she is a woman, and the system, you know, is prejudiced against women.A woman should be able to keep her electronic billet doux secret, its a basic right of women.

Let our WOMAN GO!( sarc.)

Subpoena the lying bitch now and then convict her of perjury. There is no legal bar to putting Hillary in jail. In fact, jail bars are the best kind of bars for her.
