#1 The Russians probably know far more about the HillaryCare! server than we ever will. I suspect partly because to Hillary we're the enemy but the Russians aren't.

#2 Maybe we should get Hillary's emails from Putin.

He probably has them.

It says the Russians would get back into the network at Foggy Bottom even after they 'eradicated' them - I wonder if they did that via Hillary's email server.

#3 Switch the gov computers to something really strange like Plan-9 from Bell Labs. Even Russian Hackers would pause at it's strangeness.

Without the helmet.

#8 If Hillary's * server was secure, she would have had her security expert testify to that. Next to POTUS himself, her communications would be the most sought after intelligence mine in the U.S. So of course the Russians hacked her, and they (and the Chinese, and the Iranians, and...) own her.

Hillary * is completely compromised.

* I used her first name. I'm therefore a sexist. Sue me.

#9 I used her first name. I'm therefore a sexist. Sue me.

I can't use my 'internal' codename for her in front of women or children. I guess I'm sexist too!

#10 She's just enough of a tool to provide the Rooskies with what they need to hack Foggie Bottom and then say "See...it doesn't make any difference if it was my server or the govs server, nothing is secure"

#11 Flow...
Q. Is it on the Internet?
A. Yes. Then it's not secure.
