Hillary Clinton's Felony. The federal laws violated by the private server
2015-08-30
[Daily Kos] Hillary Rodham Clinton has committed a felony. That is apparent from the facts and in the plain-language of the federal statute that prohibits "Gathering, transmitting or losing defense information", 18 U.S. Code § 793(e) and (f). This offense carries a potential penalty of ten years imprisonment.

It's called a prima facie case: clear on the basis of known facts.

It's up to prosecutorial discretion by the US Attorney as to what charges may be filed and when. Nonetheless, Mrs. Clinton is clearly chargeable for violation of federal law. As of right now, the matter is under FBI investigation. This isn't just about violation of Departmental policy.
Panned by the Daily Kos? She really is out of Schlitz.
The Kos Kidz have been wanting Bernie for a long time. They and the NYT are doing what they can to get Hilarity out of the race. And yes, she's outta beer...

#6  That's NO particular reason.
(I think I'll go have a beer. And it won't be a Schlitz.)

#5  I've said it before: What's strange about Hillary's position is that the same people who should be rising to her defense seem to have to particular reason to help her succeed.

#4  Laws are for little people.

Right now, they're just engaged in a Game of Thrones. As the 'Chosen People', they'll exempt themselves when they gain power too.

#3  Jingle from a Cheech and Chong record:

When you're out of beer, tough Schlitz

#2  There are two systems of justice in the U.S. There's felonies for the oligarchs and then there are felonies for the rest of us. I'll reconsider the above statement when Clinton is compelled to stand before a court for the listed felonies.
