FBI Immunity Chest
Rather than convene a grand jury to subpoena her computer, the FBI gave Cheryl Mills immunity from prosecution. Mills served as Hillary’s chief of staff and as her attorney.
Immunity with Impunity
The FBI also gave immunity to four others and agreed to destroy computers after reviewing evidence on them.
Here’s what VDH thinks of that:
Had anyone else in government set up a private e-mail server, sent and received classified information on it, deleted over 30,000 e-mails, ordered subordinates to circumvent court and congressional orders to produce documents, and serially and publicly lied to the American people about the scandal, that person would surely be in jail.
Trump Takes Bait In First Debate
The first 30 minutes of the first debate went swimmingly for Donald Trump. He pushed his case that globalism benefits global elites like the Clintons but hurts the American middle class.
Hillary responded that she would have a special prosecutor if elected. Not to prosecute anyone for destroying classified emails on her server but to enforce trade agreements.
Then Hillary tossed a War on Women Miss Piggy plug. She accused The Donald of calling a Miss Universe contestant fat – 20 years ago. It was a gutsy gambit from the head of the White House Bimbo Eruption department in the Bill Clinton White House.
But it worked.
Trump took the bait, Hillary reeled him in, and then bashed him with his own 1995 tax return.
We’re All Weasels Now
Not that anyone asked, but Director Comey assured us the FBI is not overrun by weasels.
Members of Congress needed assurances after last Friday’s FBI document dump. The dumped documents revealed that Clinton consiglieri Cheryl Mills sat in on Hillary Clinton’s FBI interview. Mills listened along with eight other lawyers while Hillary was questioned about her private email server. Mills is also a witness in that case. Legal experts say that’s unusual because it gives attorney/client protection to her communications with Hillary.
And the Justice Department gave her immunity anyway.
No Weasels Here
Committee Chair Trey Gowdy, a respected former federal prosecutor himself, says this isn’t the FBI he remembers.
When you have five immunity agreements and no prosecutions, when you are allowing witnesses who happen to be lawyers who happen to be targets to sit in on an interview — that is not the FBI that I used to work with.“
Comey sputtered that it is so.
“I hope, someday, when this political craziness is over, you’ll look back again on this, because this is the FBI you know and love,” the Bureau’s director told Gowdy. “This was done by pros, in the right way. That’s the part I have no patience with.”
And he insisted “We are not weasels.”
Deplorable Basket Case
At an LGBT fundraiser on Friday Hillary said, “you can put half of Trump’s supporters in a basket of deplorables.” Then she went on to say that those in the basket are sexist, Islamophobic, racist, homophobes who jaywalk. I made up the jaywalk part.
She also smeared Trump in the same way a couple weeks ago with a rant about the alt right. And her campaign ran an ad with a guy in robes saying Trump believes what he believes.
This from a gal who called Robert Byrd, a former Ku Klux Klan Wizard as well as U.S. Senator from West Virginia, her friend and mentor. (Wonder how her mentor would feel about the way she treats his coal miners.)
Anyway, all that got under Ben Stein‘s skin:
This woman, who just uttered the most vile slanders against men and women whose only sin is supporting a candidate who dares to oppose her, who dares to oppose the media/Wall Street/White House buddy system, says that only she is “temperamentally fit” to be President. Really? Temperamentally fit to work for the KGB is more like it.
Come to think of it, she does have an obsession with secrecy. She kept her Friday pneumonia diagnosis quiet until several hours after suffering some sort of seizure at a 9/11 event on Friday.
Donald Trump wished her a speedy recovery.
Deplorable
Until now, Clintonians considered it a deplorable conspiracy to question Hillary’s health.
Now her health has become a deplorable issue.
Two Bit BleachBit Clinton Caper
The FBI did a document dump on the Friday afternoon before Labor Day weekend. The dumped documents detailed Hillary Clinton’s answers to questions about her secret email server.
And it turns out Hillary used 15 Blackberrys with her home brew server. She had publicly claimed she needed the private server so she could use just one device. Of the fifteen devices, two were destroyed with a hammer. The whereabouts of the others are unknown.
BleachBit
Furthermore, an employee of Platte River Networks, the contractor who managed the server, wiped it clean. Not with a cloth or something, as Hillary wondered aloud. He used BleachBit software to destroy data which had been subpoenaed by Congress.
Paul Sperry in the NY Post writes:
Far from exonerating Clinton, the nearly 60 pages of documents expose both the systematic destruction of subpoenaed evidence by Clinton’s aides and the curious lack of interest by investigators in recovering it.
Comey even let Clinton’s State Department aides Cheryl Mills and Heather Samuelson sit in on the interview with Clinton’s other lawyers, despite the glaring conflict of interest. FBI documents make clear Mills and Samuelson led the effort to search and destroy Clinton’s subpoenaed e-mails and should’ve been prime targets of the investigation.
They’re Gonna Put Y’all In Chains
Andrew McCarthy in National Review calls Mills, longtime consigliere and chief-of-staff at Hillary’s State Department, the Clinton Family’s Tom Hayden.
I’m pretty sure he meant Tom Hagen.
