oh my!?!@...must be a Friday
The State Department is refusing to release another seven e-mail chains comprising 37 pages of correspondence, with one intelligence official telling Fox News the messages are “too damaging” to make public under any circumstances. Intelligence sources said they were concerned copies of the e-mails may exist elsewhere, and even a partial release could allow those actors to identify “special access programs,” intelligence that exists at a level of classification above “top secret.” It’s a reversal for the State Department, who for months argued against the intelligence community’s assessment that at least 2 of Clinton’s e-mails contained highly classified information. Now the number has ballooned to 22, and the State Department refuses to challenge the intelligence community’s assessment.
January 29 at 9:22 PM
The State Department acknowledged for the first time Friday that “top secret” information has been found in emails that passed through the private email server Hillary Clinton used while leading the agency, elevating the issue in the presidential campaign three days before the hotly contested Iowa caucuses.
The State Department’s conclusion came as it has worked to process 55,000 pages of Clinton’s correspondence for public release, including about 1,000 pages that were released Friday night. Clinton has said that she deleted 31,000 additional emails in 2014, deeming them purely personal.
The State Department has been under a court order to release the documents in batches, once a month, as part of a lawsuit filed by reporter Jason Leopold of Vice News, who sued after the department failed to respond promptly to his request for the public documents.
A judge had ordered the department to release all of the emails by the end of January, but attorneys for the department said this week that they would miss the deadline, (we know how this administration treats redlines and deadlines)and requested another month.
That means the last of Clinton’s emails will not be released until the end of February — after the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary — and just before Super Tuesday, when voters in 11 states will cast ballots.

brilliant
If former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg carries through and runs for president as an independent, a Reuters poll shows that his candidacy would hurt the Democrats and give a boost to Donald Trump.
In a matchup between Trump and Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton, adding Bloomberg's name to the ballot would trim Clinton's lead over Trump to six percentage points from 10, according to the poll conducted from Jan. 23 to Jan. 27.
In a Trump versus Democratic hopeful Bernie Sanders matchup, adding Bloomberg would erode Sanders' lead over Trump to seven points from 12, the poll results showed.
In all matchups, Bloomberg himself would land just 10 percent or less of the vote in November. |

The State Department said the messages were "top secret" and could not be released.
Spokesman John Kirby said the emails were not marked classified at the time they were sent.
You can't retroactively commit a crime .. no matter how much you dislike a person
Clintons emails are like a slot machine for conservatives just like Benghazi they keep throwing money into it and pulling the lever like an old lady at Foxwoods and getting a few quarters now and them to keep them hopeful waiting to hit the jackpot ??

I think only a blind partisan could dismiss a high level government official running all of this government business through their personal email and private unsecured server...  |

See, but, it only matters if it is "legal" or not. Being stupid or incompetent does not matter . . . can make you fit to be POTUS. |

I guess you're referring to Obama 
"President Obama discovered former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of personal email at the same time as news readers.
Obama, after delivering a Saturday speech in Selma, Ala., was asked when he found out about Clinton’s personal email system run from her Chappaqua home.
“The same time everybody else learned it through news reports,” he told CBS News." |

If anyone here did what Shillary did, they would be behind bars right now.
The average joe is sick of how Washington is being run now and finally waking up.
The main thing I see with Trump is that he is beholden to no one.
That scares Washington elites as he wants to upset the apple cart.
I say go for it.
The majority of politicians forgot that they work for us. |

I don't like Trump, I listen to him speak and he says absolutely nothing....he does have entertainment value in that he's an equal opportunity offender...you need only to look at National Review online to see that he has no love from Conservatives and the establishment has bristled but may be cautiously warming as they begin to think he's inevitable, he makes many on the left insane because he provides and easy target for their pent up rage.....I believe he just referred to Cruz as an "Anchor Baby" which is hilarious.....he appears to be most popular from what I can see with people that aren't that politically motivated at other times and from both sides of the aisle that are just frustrated in general particularly with political correctness always being rubbed in their noses...he's popular with union members, younger blue collar folks that I know and has a more broad appeal than any current candidate....we'll see....I don't understand it...but we'll see.....he might be a better "community organizer" than Obama

True. And even going further back in time, democrats in the south were wealthy slave owners.

I would suggest that if other SoS violated those rules an investigation should be done. What Hillary did goes WAY beyond anything (known) before her. You know this you just chose to play HC Advocate

It is not dislike, it is procedures, if you do did that you would be doing time and you know it.

Yes but doesn't make a difference, you can be sick of it but it still needs to be investigated properly.

People keep asserting this but unless there is clear intent or disregard with the mishandlng of classified information I don't think there will be any penalties even for staffers.
Funny how classified information is leaked to the media all the time and nobody turns a blind eye.

The IG and the FBI, at this time, work for one Barack Obama. Is he a conservative now?
Some agencies have said very clearly that 2 emais were marked as flagged when they hit her server. I don't know if that's true, neoither do you. That's why we need an investigation.
How many times has she changed the semantics of her excuses? |

Just this morning ...
Bill tried to cheer up Hillary by reminding her that Nelson Mandela wasn't elected president until after he had served 27 years in prison.

Actually they are different. They were not on a privately owned server of a person who was in line to potentially become the next president.

You see PaulS, if you want to become president the rules are different.
That makes, um, sense.
