The High Stakes of Hillary Clinton’s Email Scandal

Predicting the likely fallout

Days before Hillary Clinton was sworn in as the 67th Secretary of State on Jan. 21, 2009, her staff took a server Clinton was using as Senator and created an email domain on it. An aide gave Clinton the address HDR22@clintonemail.com and created other accounts for a handful of family members and close aides. Clinton says she used this address exclusively for all her government and personal emails while serving as Secretary, setting the stage for a scandal that has come to dominate her campaign for the presidency.

How did the scandal start?

In August 2014, more than a year after Clinton left office, House Republicans investigating the 2012 terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya, raised questions about Clinton’s use of private emails. A Vice reporter, Jason Leopold, requested that her work-related ones be released under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and later sued the State Department for moving too slowly. The department asked Clinton and other former Secretaries of State to hand over private emails that contained government business from their tenure.

Clinton tasked her personal lawyer, David Kendall, and his team with going through 62,320 emails on the personal server and separating work emails from personal ones. On Dec. 5, 2014, Clinton turned over 30,490 work emails to State; she erased the rest, saying they were personal. The server itself remained in the New Jersey office of a small Colorado-based firm, Platte River Networks, that the Clintons hired to manage their email after she left office in February 2013.

Good heavens! The first, summary, paragraph of Wikipedia's article about Leopold is practically a Who's Who of Lib-Prog media! How in Hades did he become the major catalyst in revelations that are threatening to wreck Tsaritsa CHILL's second Presidential run and even a remote possibility of prison time?!

I'm no conspiracy theory fanboy, but, DAY--YUM!!! And it wouldn't take much of a conspiracy, maybe one Hillary-Hater with knowledge of her email chicanery and a few million $$ to make it worthwhile to the second person in the conspiracy, Leopold. Whatever ...

I have no freaking clue!  Was reading Time while eating dinner last night (not ever a good idea, but was just glancing).   I damn near fell into my food when I saw the name Jason Leopold.

I had to Duck-Duck-Go his name. It wasn't familiar to me.

So he landed at Vice.  It might be a step up from TruthOut.

Jason Leopold is a kook who believes that the Clintons, etc... aren't adequately far enough left. He and the other pro-Bernie/pro-Warren nuts want to rid the Dem party of the last few members of sanity (if you can consider the Clintons sane) to be replaced with REAL extremist moonbats like them.

Had this been an email server of someone he adored, Leopold would have been screaming bloody murder towards anyone even suggesting that those emails be released via the FOIA.

It's the Blind Squirrel/Broken Clock theory of Liberal journalism.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

I believe the curb is a step up from there but, that not withstanding, this goes a long way to understanding Pitt's departure from the DUmp given Skinner's love of all things Hillary. :whistling:  Wonder where mama Raven is in this whole putrid affair?  Anyone got the 411 on her political leaning in this cycle?  There has been a steady influx of Massholes into that region of NH fleeing the smoldering ruin of their own failed fetid socialist state. 

Meanwhile, NH Senator Mean Jean Shaheen is coming out for Hillary soon but the state is breaking Barney so it will be a regular slug fest in the trenches.  Last time one of these inner party throw down hoe downs happened (2000) it is rumored the AlGore people (led by Mean Jean's hubby) went so far as to call a wounded vet running for president a cripple and threw mud on him (Bob Kerrey).   The NH Dims play for keeps so this could get interesting as the Sander-nistas (who share similarities with Ronulan Paulbots past) square off for an iron cage primary match. :catfight:
