Former United States Attorney General Michael Mukasey tells MSNBC that not only is Hillary Clinton’s private email server illegal, it "disqualifies" her from holding any federal office. Such as, say, President of the United States. Very specifically it points to one federal law, Title 18. Section 2071.
For those of us who do not have United States Code committed to memory, here’s what it says:
“(a) Whoever willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, or destroys, or attempts to do so, or, with intent to do so takes and carries away any record, proceeding, map, book, paper, document, or other thing, filed or deposited with any clerk or officer of any court of the United States, or in any public office, or with any judicial or public officer of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.
(b) Whoever, having the custody of any such record, proceeding, map, book, document, paper, or other thing, willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, falsifies, or destroys the same, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both; and shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States. As used in this subsection, the term “office” does not include the office held by any person as a retired officer of the Armed Forces of the United States.”
Word for word from the Cornell Law Library!
Yes, it explicitly states “….shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States.”
Can it be any clearer???!!!
The law didn’t stop Obunga from becoming president.
Even if it was law, we are WROL. People are jailed because they do unpopular things (Like people going to jail for Facebook posts and stuff) and the elite and privileged get away with murder (Literally)
We are WROL. Right now.
No ... Title 18. Section 2071 states “intent” as only ONE of the citations .... it is not an exclusive word.
Bkmrk
Obama was not qualified and was born in Africa - but that didn’t stop 8 years of madness.
"(a) Except for Hillary..."
You are so right, unfortunately.
Ridiculing the homosexual agenda. Kicking a queer out of the ladies’ restroom. Putting a strip of bacon atop the door handle of a mosque. Calling Rosie a fat, sweaty lesbian to her face. The list could go on and on and on and on and...................
All that is true but doesn’t have any bearing on Hillary unless she is convicted of those offenses which is not happening.
Can it be any clearer? No, like “shall not be infringed”can’t be clearer. But then again.....
That’s it. Hair story
If an illegal immigrant Islamonazi enemy agent can Occupy our White House, there is no law anymore in Amerika
So these emails that were deleted would have to have met those criteria. What was "filed or deposited" with any of the above. Please clarify my thinking on this.
That’s O’Bunghole.
Something is really wrong in a country that elects people president who are not eligible. bam would not have passed the background check to become a mall security guard. hill has broken the law and should be in jail.
Those laws were written when this country was a country of laws. The government is so corrupt that nobody bothers reading the law books.
At this point what difference does it make.
Laws don’t matter when children are voting.
[...shall forfeit his office...]
It depends on what ‘his’ is.
We better get a SCOTUS ruling on this (snicker, snicker).
There are trolls out there (WAY out there!) advocating voting for her ‘so she can be impeached’. I kid you not.
