    FBI recommends no charges to be filed against Clinton

    FBI recommends no charges to be filed against Clinton

    Published July 05, 2016 FoxNews.com

    FBI Director James Comey announced Tuesday he will not recommend the Department of Justice seek criminal charges against Hillary Clinton for her personal email use while secretary of state.

    The decision helps remove what was arguably the biggest threat to her presidential campaign going forward – a criminal referral that could have led to an indictment – just weeks before her party’s national convention in Philadelphia where she is set to seal her nomination as the Democrat standard bearer.


    Clinton consistently had downplayed the FBI investigation, even calling it a “security review,” and as recently as June 3 said there was “absolutely no possibility” she’d be indicted. Weeks ago, a scathing State Department inspector general report directly countered her long-running claim that her personal email use was allowed, though her campaign continued to defend the candidate’s actions.


    In the wake of that report, presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump stepped up his criticism of her email actions and said she belongs in “jail.”


    The DOJ decision does not strip the email controversy as a campaign issue – Trump and the Republicans are sure to keep hammering it as the campaign lurches into full general election mode post-conventions – but shows the federal investigation did not determine the actions to be criminal, even if they were ill-advised and potentially damaging to national security.


    The decision comes more than a year after knowledge of Clinton’s use of a personal email and server first became public. Clinton responded at the time with a point-by-point written explanation and a press conference in which she said she had opted to use her personal server for “convenience.”


    But critics said she was clearly circumventing government systems in order to try to shield her communications from public records requests, potentially putting sensitive and highly classified government secrets at risk in the process.

    During a subsequent review, more than 2,000 emails on the server were found to have contained information now deemed classified, though they apparently were not marked classified when sent.

    It will be a sad day for this country if Clinton became president.

    Every time I see her face on TV with that cocky, arrogant smirk I get sick to my stomack!

    Darrell Issa: The Clintons Play by a ‘Different Set of Rules’

    by PATRICK HOWLEY
    5 Jul 2016

    WASHINGTON, D.C. – Former House Oversight chairman Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) said that the FBI’s decision not to indict Hillary Clinton proves that the politically-connected Washington elites play by a “different set of rules” than the rest of the country.

    FBI director James Comey admitted as much in his press conference Tuesday, in which he said that if someone else did what Hillary Clinton did, they would be punished. But even though Comey said the FBI found “evidence of potential violation” of classified information law, the agency recommended against indictment.

    Issa, the Republicans’ top watchdog until he stepped down as Oversight chairman due to term limits, commented on the hypocrisy in a statement Tuesday.

    “This stunning decision shows just what the American people are so tired of: a system where the Clintons and the politically-connected few get to play by a different set of rules from everyone else,” Issa said.

    “Despite declining to recommend charges, the FBI Director’s press conference today was nothing short of damning. It proved that Secretary Clinton was not only ‘extremely careless’ in her handling of classified information, but also that she knew better and did it anyway,” Issa said.

    “Under similar circumstances, anyone else would have to bear the consequences for their actions, but in this case, justice and accountability seem to have evaded the American people once again,” Issa said.

    Issa recently made news when he appeared on “Breitbart News Saturday” on Sirius/XM Patriot Channel 125. Issa said in that interview that there is enough evidence to indict Hillary Clinton, but that it probably would not happen, meaning that American citizens will have to play prosecutor come November.

    Considering the lack of investigative power that current Chairman Jason Chaffetz’s Oversight Committee has brought to the email scandal – especially compared to Issa’s previous dogged inquiries into the IRS targeting and Fast and Furious scandals – it seems likely that Issa might want his old gavel back right about now.

    Forget Perjury… Bombshell New Charge Explodes Against Hillary

    Davis on July 4, 2016 at 10:31am

    Hillary Clinton has not had a good week. First, the long-awaited House Committee report on Benghazi came out, reminding Americans that Clinton is responsible for the deaths of four Americans on Sept. 11, 2012.

    Then, the FBI conducted its long-awaited interview with Clinton on Saturday, bringing Clinton’s email controversy back into the national spotlight.

    Now, McClatchy DC reported that new reports have surfaced indicating that even if the Justice Department fails to indict Clinton on perjury charges, it is possible she could be charged with espionage.

    Clinton has insisted that she had no classified information on her email servers, yet over 2,000 of her emails have been labeled as “classified,” with at least 20 being too sensitive to be released to the public.

    Under the Espionage Act, allowing classified information to fall into enemy hands “through gross negligence” is still a punishable crime.

    It is possible that Clinton’s server was hacked by foreign governments, or hackers working for foreign governments. Nothing has been confirmed, but if a foreign government did access her server and compromised national security, Clinton would have a lot to answer for.

    There is little doubt in many Americans’ minds that Clinton broke the law using her private email server while secretary of state, and has repeatedly lied to the American people about it.

    Clinton continues to insist that the FBI is only conducting a “security inquiry” into her use of a private server, despite the FBI repeatedly stating that it is conducting an “investigation.”

    Hillary Clinton is one of the most corrupt politicians to run for office in recent memory. She has repeatedly broken laws and continues to act like she did nothing wrong.
    She can never be allowed to become president or else everything that made America great will be lost.

    Yep, considering how much smoke they leave in their wake, it's hard to believe nobody has been able to prove they weren't actually involved in a fire. There is no finer example than the Clinton's to prove that some folks in government are above the law.

    1. The fix was in already,.

    2. The Lynch and Bill meeting was also part of the plan orchestrated by the Obama cronies because
    this would force Lynch to make public statement on the investigation assuring the American people
    she will follow FBI recommendation.

    3. Obama, Lynch & Clinton already knew the FBI was not going to recommend criminal charges last week

    4. In order to make it look like the fix was not already in..... the Obama/Lynch/Clinton team had concocked
    and planned this whole production scam on the stupid, dumb American people.

    5. The Obama Administration had the rope around Comey's neck 6 month's ago.

    6. It's not a coincidence that team Hillary/Obama started there campaign agenda today after the FBI press release.
    The Obama travel arrangements this week with Clinton were coordinated weeks ago as nothing is just a last minute
    thought to move around the President of the United States

    ** Why else would a sitting president come out and endorse a career criminal plagued with 30+ years
    of corruption before the FBI supposedly came to a conclusion on a non-existent on-going investigation

    The joke is on us!

    The entire production was nothing more than another Obama scam on the American people.

    I find it believable that Lynch already knew what the F.B.I. was going to recommend before her public statement on following their recommendation. Actually I find such a scenario very likely. However, I'm not convinced the meeting between Lynch and Bill was planned before the actual day it happened.

    Everything I've been reading seems to indicate the meeting was pretty much Bill's idea. Being the opportunist he is, he took advantage of the fact Lynch was scheduled to be there. Of course Lynch is guilty of kissing Bill's butt and showing a lack of integrity by accepting a meeting she knew would be considered inappropriate by the American public. Of course she could be guilty of much more, depending on what was said during their private meeting. Just my take on the situation.
