Hillary Clinton avoids punishment in Arkansas over secret emails
The Washington Times ^ | Monday, October 22, 2018 | Stephen Dinan

Posted on 10/22/2018 12:54:11 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Arkansas’s bar has declined to sanction former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for her handling of her secret emails, rejecting a request that she face a misconduct investigation.

The state Supreme Court’s office of professional conduct didn’t offer any explanation for its decision in an Oct. 17 letter to Ty Clevenger, the lawyer who’d asked for action.

“As in most other states, Arkansas’s bar prosecutors will go to perverse lengths to protect a politically-influential attorney. Lawyers with the right political connections can get away with just about anything, and it doesn’t seem to matter if they’re Republicans or Democrats,” Mr. Clevenger said.

Mr. Clevenger had told Arkansas there was clear evidence Mrs. Clinton committer perjury in her explanation of her handling of her emails, and that she destroyed evidence by having her team delete tens of thousands of messages before the government had a chance to review them.

A bar official refused the complaint last year and Mr. Clevenger asked the professional conduct committee to step in.

They declined.

Re: “it doesn’t seem to matter if they’re Republicans or Democrats”

I'd like to see the list of CONSERVATIVE Republican lawyers who escaped State Bar punishment because they are “politically connected.”

I will speculate it is a very, very short list.

I think her time in the eternal toaster is rapidly approaching. I wonder how many people she is responsible for ruining or killing outright.

Hillary Aide Huma Abedin Forwarded State Dept Passwords to
Yahoo Before It Was Hacked by Russian and Foreign Agents

By Luke Rosiak, The Daily Caller / January 02, 2018 /

Huma Abedin, a top aide to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, routed sensitive information through Yahoo multiple times.

Huma Abedin forwarded sensitive State Department emails, including passwords to government systems, to her personal Yahoo email account before every single Yahoo account was hacked, a Daily Caller News Foundation analysis of emails released as part of a lawsuit brought by Judicial Watch shows. Abedin, the top aide to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, used her insecure personal email provider to conduct sensitive work.

This guarantees that an account with high-level correspondence in Clinton’s State Department was affected by one or more of a series of breaches—at least one of which was perpetrated by a “state-sponsored actor.”

The U.S. later charged Russian intelligence agent Igor Sushchin with hacking 500 million Yahoo email accounts. The initial hack occurred in 2014 and allowed his associates to access accounts into 2015 and 2016 by using forged cookies. Sushchin also worked for the Russian investment bank Renaissance Capital, which paid former President Bill Clinton $500,000 for a June 2010 speech in Moscow.

A separate hack in 2013 compromised 3 billion accounts across multiple Yahoo properties, and the culprit is still unclear. “All Yahoo user accounts were affected by the August 2013 theft,” the company said in a statement. Abedin, Hillary Clinton’s deputy chief of staff, regularly forwarded work emails to her personal humamabedin@yahoo.com address. “She would use these accounts if her [State] account was down or if she needed to print an email or document. Abedin further explained that it was difficult to print from the DoS system so she routinely forwarded emails to her non-DoS accounts so she could more easily print,” an FBI report says.

Abedin sent passwords for her government laptop to her Yahoo account on Aug. 24, 2009, an email released by the State Department in September shows. Long-time Clinton confidante Sid Blumenthal sent Clinton an email in July 2009 with the subject line: “Important. Not for circulation. You only. Sid.” The email began “CONFIDENTIAL … Re: Moscow Summit.” Abedin forwarded the email to her Yahoo address, potentially making it visible to hackers.

The email was deemed too sensitive by the government to release to the public and was redacted before being published pursuant to the Judicial Watch lawsuit. The released copy says: “Classified by DAS/ A/GIS, DoS on 10/30/2015 Class: Confidential.” The unredacted portion reads: “I have heard authoritatively from Bill Drozdiak, who is in Berlin. … We should expect that the Germans and Russians will now cut their own separate deals on energy, regional security, etc.” —SNIP—

Hillary Clinton & GOOGLE Created Covert Server to Hide Classified Benghazi Emails from Congress; FBI Never Probed.
TruePundit ^ | 9/12/18 | Thomas Paine / FR Posted on 9/12/2018 by blueyon

NOTE: Since the Right-wing media has been asleep on this story for over two years — but suddenly Google’s collusion with Hillary Clinton is newsworthy, we at True Pundit wanted to highlight a story we broke in JUNE and SEPT. 2016, detailing Hillary and Google’s election collusion. That was 26 MONTHS AGO.

Also noteworthy, in this story True Pundit stated that China had hacked Hillary’s emails, per FBI sources. That also has recently “come true” so to speak in the ‘news’ recently. We broke it two years ago. We are proud that our national scoops always stand the test of time, despite misguided and partisan critics who are two years behind our reporting. Here is the original story from 2016. HEADLINE: FBI Botched Clinton Investigation: Never Disclosed Hillary, Aides Used Covert Google Server to Hide Benghazi Emails

It’s like a bad spy movie involving a third-world government. Or perhaps a slap stick comedy. The Secretary of State of the United States reading, sending, receiving sensitive emails with national security secrets, threats and classified or top secret intelligence over Google’s public Gmail. We expect this from chatting soccer moms but not from the top diplomat of the United States and her aides. (Excerpt) Read more at truepundit.com ...

Long-time Clintonista, Sid Blumenthal, is the Clintons' Handmaiden.

<><> the Clintons announced Blumenthal was hired by the Clinton Foundation to "promote Bill's presidential legacy," (waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)

<><> at the same time Blumenthal was tight w/ American Bridge and Media Matters — two Democratic groups aiding 2016 Hillary,

<><> dollar-crazed Blumenthal was also a paid advisor to US businesses seeking Libyan contracts (marketing his influence w/ Hillary's State Dept);

<><> Buckeroo Blumenthal was secretly advising Secy of State Clinton about Libya @ $320,000 per year;

<><> suck-up Sid also pocketed $200,000 a year from Clinton political fixer, David Brock's, media operations for Hillary 2016.

Keep in mind, Hillary wanted him closeby at State, but Obama banned the notorious Sid from govt employment.
So the Clintons ensconced Blumenthal at the Clinton Foundation w/ a $325, 000 annual salary.

For gullible, sap-happy Democrats' edification, it was announced Blumenthal was hired to ......(wait for it) ...."promote Bill's presidential legacy."

(waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)

The implications of these Blumenthal revelations (below) are huge, as the Washington Free Beacon points out:

<><> Among the newly revealed Benghazi e-mails were a pair of messages from July 2011 in which Blumenthal described efforts to secure Libyan government contracts for Osprey Global Solutions, a company in which Blumenthal has admitted to having a financial interest.

<><>Blumenthal warned Clinton that French companies were looking to scoop up security contracts from the Transitional National Council, the revolutionary government of the Libyan resistance, and plugged Osprey’s ability to be an American counterweight.

<><> “It puts Americans in a central role without being direct battle combatants,” Blumenthal wrote of Osprey’s TNC contract. He described his efforts in “putting this arrangement together through a series of connections, linking the Libyans to Osprey and keeping it moving.”

<><> Clinton forwarded that message to Jake Sullivan, her deputy chief of staff, and asked to discuss it later.

BACKSTORY Sid Blumenthal was banned from govt employment by Obama (although some think this is another of St Obama’s holy ruses), but at the same time Blumenthal was pushing Secy of State Clinton to all-out war in Libya, suck-up Sid was privately pushing his business interests WRT contracts with the "new" Libyan government — a government that would exist only after US military intervention in Libya that deposed Qaddafi.

ITEM--Blumenthal was engaged in massive conflicts of interest since he was simultaneously (a) being paid by The Clinton Foundation, (b) paid by Hillary's 2016 PAC organizers, and, (3) paid by businesses w/ interests in Libya.

If Secy Clinton knew all that, then her actions in circulating memos composed by Blumenthal were egregious. If she did not know, her recklessness is subject to US laws.

=====================================================

ITEM---to its donors---and to the world beyond---the Clinton Foundation hired Sid Blumenthal to..... (wait for it)..... "promote Bill's presidential legacy." That's what Sid was supposed to be doing for his hefty $325,000 foundation salary.

Just wondering.....

<><> Who transported SOS Hillary’s server from NY to NJ’s Platte River Networks?

<><>Did the Secret Service (who Hillary insists had been guarding it since it was really Bill’s Library/Foundation asset) accompany and supervise the transport of the server?

<><> Per the interview with Platte River Networks, did they just take it, lock it up, not power it up, connect it to the internet, or not have it functioning as an active email server?

<><> Was there continuity of server activity between May 2013 to August 2015, or did the server go off-line starting in June 2013?

<><> Who received actual server in NJ - the name of the Platte River Networks employee/technician? What WAS it - make/model/form factor, etc.?

<><> Did the Clinton Foundation (or issuer of the RFP on Hillary’s behalf) indicate that the company that would provide data services qualified to handle national-security-level data?

<><> In various interviews and reports, Platte River Networks repeatedly stated they were to “upgrade, manage, and secure” the server. What - specifically - does that mean?

<><> What did Hillary’s RFP/contract order the data center to do specifically?

<><> Does Platte River Networks have sufficient security clearance to handle this type of contract?

<><> What were the firewall protocols in place at the time?

<><> Who - by name - had access to the server, and the administrative authorization to wipe and cleanse the server? When was that done?

<><> Does “upgrade, manage, and secure” the server mean that they PRN was given the task to remove all data from the server when it received it in June 2013?

<><> Was malware or antivirus also on the server?

<><> Was the inherent firewall, virus protection, or operating system “upgraded, managed, and secured”?

<><> Any incidents reported such as DOS attack, hacking, etc.? What were they? How were they resolved?

<><> Other than arranging for the server to be moved from NY to NJ, what was the Denver company contracted to do in relation to maintaining the server?

<><> What tangible evidence is there that the server arrived in functioning condition, was being used as an email server, was “upgraded, managed, and secured”, then wiped just prior to seizure by the FBI?

<><> Were normal and regular backup procedures executed on the server, and where would the back ups be kept?

<><> If no backups were taken, was there a disaster recovery location?

<><> Where was that? If no backups and no disaster recovery, what was the plan if the equipment failed or found to have been wiped of any functionality?

<><> Were any foreign nationals employed at Platte River Networks, or at Datto, that had access to the Clinton server?
