Clinton broke rules with secret server
Washington Times ^ | May 25, 2016 | Stephen Dinan

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton did break her department’s rules by setting up her own secret email server, the inspector general concluded in a report sent to Congress on Wednesday that says she failed to report hacking attempts and waved off warnings that she should switch to a more official email account.

Inspector General Steve Linick, appointed by President Obama, said he couldn’t find any evidence that Mrs. Clinton received approval for her odd email arrangement, and when lower-level staffers pressed the issue, saying she was skirting open-records laws, they were ordered “never to speak of the secretary’s personal email system again.”

In one instance in 2011, Mrs. Clinton’s tech guru thought the server was being hacked and shut it down for a few minutes. Months later, Mrs. Clinton feared yet another hack attack was underway — yet never reported the incident to the department, in another breach of department rules.

Exactly! Clinton broke the Law. She did not simply “break the rules”. How about her friend Terry M. in Va. He broke the law. Now is claiming bad accounting practices.

Hillary Clinton: unfit for office.

Unaccomplished in prior positions of high authority and high responsibility.

She is a fumbler. Fumbled Benghazi, the middle east and Iran. Bungled the husband is a rapist coverup, and lost secrets at State to the world.

UNFIT!

Almost?

The ‘tone ‘ folks are piling on... getting ready to pretend they’ve always objected to Hillary’s criminal ways. Joe’s talking about Hillary with the same stern teacher’s warble usually reserved for Trump.

It’s gonna happen soon... the question is ‘how do thugs’ in the democrat party take out Sanders at the same time?

Of course she did. It's part of the Clinton's DNA. Push, push push. And always have deniability ready.

In the 2010 exchange, top personal aide Huma Abedin suggested that it was time to look into getting an official state.gov email address because Mrs. Clinton’s messages from her clintonemail.com account were landing in staffers’ spam folders.

Aside from the fact that it's probably where they belonged, there is the disturbing evidence that State Department staffers are apparently less competent at managing their professional communications than most 12-year-olds are at managing their cell-phones. Given the incredible mess our foreign policy is in at the moment it isn't really much of a surprise, but guys? You can white-list anyone in Exchange although it would probably be regarded as racist in this lamentable miasma of political correctness that has settled over Foggy Bottom. There's a button to click. Do not fear the button. And stop hitting Reply To All when you get spam from Russia, China, North Korea, or those nice ISIS fellers.
