There is no doubt about this that she is a criminal. The fact that the Dems wanted her to run is a sign of party weakness, not strength.
She also lied to the public in her statements on this matter.
Oh, and:
There is no evidence she used encryption to shield the emails or her personal server from foreign intelligence services or other potentially prying eyes.
Just imagine if this were a Republican.

Hillary Clinton is embroiled in a scandal concerning her exclusive use of a private email server as Secretary of State, and the possible mishandling of classified information. Here are five sentences that explain everything you need to know.
1) Hillary Clinton on March 10, 2015:
[h=3]“I did not email any classified material to anyone on my email.”[/h]2) Andrea Williams, spokeswoman for the intelligence community inspector general, on July 24, 2015:
[h=3]“[The emails] were classified when they were sent and are classified now.”[/h]3) Hillary Clinton on July 25, 2015:
[h=3]“I am confident that I never sent nor received any information that was classified at the time it was sent and received.”[/h]4) Hillary Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill on August 4, 2015:
[h=3]“[Clinton] did not send nor receive any emails that were marked classified at the time.”[/h]5) Intelligence community inspector general I. Charles McCullough in a letter to Senator Chuck Grassley on August 11, 2015:
[h=3]“These emails … have been properly marked by IC classification officials, and include information classified up to ‘TOP SECRET.'”[/h]So, in a matter of months, we’ve gone from “I did not email classified information” to revelations that “top secret” information was passed over a private, non-government server.

[h=2]Obama, Clinton Foundation Donors Sold ‘Green’ Fuel to Military for $149 per Gallon[/h]San Francisco’s Solazyme also received millions in stimulus funds from DOE

The CEO and Board of Directors of Solazyme, a company the military paid $149per gallon for “alternative” fuel, have donated more than $300,000 to Democratic candidates and committees, according to aWashington Free Beacon analysis.
Recipients of significant donations included the Obama Victory Fund and the Democratic National Committee. Additionally, Solazyme donated between $100,000 and $250,000 to the Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation.
A Congressional Research Service (CRS) report found that the Department of Defense (DOD) paid Solazyme $149 per gallon for fuel made of algal oil, costing taxpayers a total of $223,500 in 2009. The group also received a $21 million stimulus grant from Department of Energy in 2009.
“Based in South San Francisco, Solazyme’s mission is to improve our lives and our planet by producing sustainable, high-performance oils and ingredients derived from microalgae,” the companystates. Solazyme claims that their process serves as a better alternative to limited resources such as petroleum, vegetable oils, and animal fats.
Three members of Solazyme’s Board of Directors have donated hundreds of thousands to Dems, which include more than $50,000 in donations that benefited President Obama.
Solazyme’s co-founders, Jonathan Wolfson and Harrison Dillon, have together donated more than $7,000 to Democratic candidates and committees.
A member of Solazyme’s management team, Peter Licari, donated to both Republicans and Democrats before he was employed by Solazyme. Licari donated $16,000 to Republicans and more than $25,000 to Democrats while he was employed by Complete Healthcare Resources.
“Solazyme has been propelled over the years by an extraordinary group of people,” states Wolfson. “Our employees, customers, partners and investors have been and will continue to be our greatest resources.”
DOD has stated that one of its strategic energy goals is to expand its energy supply options by investing in alternative fuels such as the kind Solazyme produces. This type of renewable fuel comes at much higher cost than petroleum fuel.
From fiscal years 2007 to 2014, the DOD purchased 32 billion gallons of petroleum fuel for $107.2 billion, which comes to $3.35 per gallon. This means that Solazyme’s price per gallon was 44 times that of the average price of regular petroleum fuel.
Christine Travis, manager of corporate communications for Solazyme, said the $149 per gallon figure is “incorrect” and that the number is inflated due to research and development costs.
“The dollar amount you cited is incorrect because that total cost includes the R&D portion we performed at the request of the DOD that was part of the testing and certification program with the Department of Defense and the U.S. Navy,” said Travis.
Travis says that this month Solazyme announced they are supplying renewable fuel to UPS and that it has been a few years since they’ve worked with DOD on fuels.
However, she praised the Navy’s effort to increase their use of alternative fuels.
“We applaud the Navy for pursuing the bold goal of supplying its operations with 50 percent alternative fuels by 2020. Our dependence on oil from foreign nations—some of them hostile, some of them unstable—is one of the greatest threats to our security as a nation and to our allies overseas who rely on Persian Gulf oil and have no or insignificant indigenous petroleum resources of their own.”
In regards to co-founders and board of directors donating to Democrats, Travis said Solazyme has no policy on political contributions.
“Our company does not have a PAC, and our company does not have a policy on employee or board member political contributions,” Travis said. “Anyone in our company can support anyone they want.”

[h=1]HILLARY CLINTON MAY GO TO PRISON[/h]
by JOEL B. POLLAK11 Aug 20156,209
[h=2]Hillary Clinton is going to prison–or would be, if she were an ordinary person. The FBI has reportedly taken possession of the emails on her home computer server, according to U.S. officials cited by the Associated Press.[/h]According to Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), at least two of the emails contained “Top Secret, Sensitive Compartmented Information.”
An ordinary person–or even a well-known leader like General David Petraeus–would be prosecuted for moving classified information onto a private system. And that is just the beginning of her legal problems.
Clinton not only allegedly exchanged classified information via private e-mail, but also destroyed her emails before handing them over to the State Department before the government could determine for itself which were personal and which were job-related. That could constitute a felony, with a three-year prison sentence attached. And that is just the beginning of what is known.
It is worth noting, too, that much of the information emerging on Hillary Clinton first emerged from three sources: the Benghazi select committee, which the left attempted to dismiss; the independent Judicial Watch organization, which submitted key Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests; and the thorough research of Peter Schweizer, who documented Clinton’s alleged conflicts of interests.
This time, the Clinton magic may not be able to save her.

[h=1]STATE DEPARTMENT CAN STILL KEEP TWO HILLARY CLINTON EMAILS[/h]

[h=2]The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has finally seized Hillary Clinton’s emails, including her “Top Secret” correspondences from her tenure as Secretary of State.[/h]But hold on: The State Department still has the authority to withhold two of Hillary Clinton’s emails, Breitbart News has learned.
A source confirmed Tuesday that the FBI is now in possession of two thumb drives containing emails from Clinton’s tenure as Secretary of State. The thumb drives had been held by Clinton attorney David Kendall. It is now believed that all of Clinton’s State Department emails have been turned over.
But seven specific emails are still being reviewed by an inter-governmental agency, led by the FBI, to determine whether or not they are classified.
Two of the emails in question were classified as “Top Secret” by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and could remain classified due to the nature of that classification.
And two other emails have been referred back to the State Department for consideration of their classified status, a government official told Breitbart News exclusively on condition of anonymity.
That means that the State Department still has control over whether or not those two emails will ever be released to the public.
“IC classification officials reviewed two additional emails and judged that they contained classified State Department information when originated,” according to a memo signed Tuesday by I. Charles McCullough III, the inspector general of the intelligence community. “These officials referred the emails to State Department classification officials on 7 August 2015 for final determination on current classification. We will provide these documents once they have been properly marked by the State Department.”
Additionally, three more emails could be classified. Two of those emails were classified at the time but are believed to no longer be classified, the government official told Breitbart News.
The Senate Judiciary Committee, led by Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley, has not yet seen the emails, a committee staffer told Breitbart News.

This is our best case scenario.
Hillary ends up in prison destroying an already damaged brand and the Dems nominate Sanders or Biden = landslide!
OPPS!
Mrs. Clinton's support is a mile wide but only 3 inches deep, her position as the inevitable nominee
has vanished like Johnson the presumed nominee before the 68 elections when a nobody like Gene
McCarthy almost won the NH primary in early 68 leading to Johnson's '"I shall not seek and I will not
accept the nomination of my party as your President."
This is scary, a nobody like Sanders won't be the nominee like McCarthy but a Joe Biden, Elizabeth
Warren ticket would be much stronger than a Mrs. Clinton & whoever she'd pick might be.
Elizabeth Warren would bring out the Democrat base like no other person, and I don't think
she would say no to Biden. As a Republican I'd much prefer Mrs. Clinton a terrible campaigner
wobbling into the general election than the Democrats being energized by this alternative!
I really don’t give a rats ass who the Dems nominate.
My concern is the Republican side. I want a Conservative not a Rino. There are a certain amount of the voters will vote Democratic no matter the nominee. If Biden/Warren is their strongest ticket, so be it.
If the majority of voters want more of what Obama brought us, then so be it. Much like you I’m up there in age. I’ve seen good and I’ve seen bad but I’ve never seen such abysmal candidates on both sides. Ten of the Republicans candidates are a joke and sadly they would be better than any Dem.
Even if someone like Trump or Cruz (my top two) became President they’ll still have to deal with the establishment Congress and that’s no day at the beach.
The fact that Sanders is getting support shows just how many stupid people there are. Same goes for Clinton. Does anyone believe Biden would be better? All you have to do is go back and watch the VP debate. He started out laughing and continued till the end and no one found that odd?
And as I’ve said all along you can’t fix stupid and they outnumber us.
Trump & Cruz are 1 & 2 with me also. Cruz is a doctrinaire conservative right on every issue. Trump
goes off the reservation from time to time but is perfect on the big issues that really matter & IMO
more electable. His detractors claim he isn't issue orientated but the reality of modern politics
is so complex they are increasingly managed not by individuals, rather staffs who report to the leader
who sets the goals. That's the way Trump handles his successful world wide companies.
The fact that he's a giant of industry can only help his appeal. Afterall Reagan famously quipped
''The best minds are not in government. If any were, business would hire them away'
Trump managed to steamroll worthy business adversaries far more formidable than those
he'll be going up against in an entrenched congress, though admittedly as you say they
are no day at the beach I haven't see anyone who could possibly move the congress
& the country back in the right direction again.
That is why I started this thread. I knew the die hard liberals would defend her to the bitter end for all the wrong reasons. There was just too much out there, way too many dots for sure. When you get away with as much as the Clinton's have until now it was really just a matter of time before they got busted. It should not stop with the emails, their foundation should be checked into also. I am sure that she and her advisors were going to take the legal side of Benghazi emails in that any sent before the attack were not to be considered classified because they were sent before the attack. That is how the Clinton minds work. It should not have been up to her to determine what would or should have been classified. That decision should have been made by a third party and under congressional and/or judicial observation. Destroying them is inexcusable and there is no way in hell she would have done that if she had nothing to hide. Even if pre-Benghzi communications between her and the ambassador were legally not classified at the time they communicated they ceased to be be unclassified once Benghazi took place and definitely at the time they destroyed the emails. You don't need a blood hound to sniff this one out. This one is on every billboard between Benghazi and DC. Anyone who can do what she has done and look people in the eyes and deny it is as low as it gets. She is directing her campaign at the uninformed but the FBI and Congress do not fall in that category when it comes to this one. She may wiggle out somehow but anyone who still has respect for her falls in the same category as her. Facts speak for themselves.
