Tyrone and half of this Board for YEARS called for Cheney to be basically jailed (and shot) for TREASON because Richard Armitage somehow mentioned Valerie Plame's name.
Hillary - against policy, procedure and the law AND against the admonition of President Obama - set up an hackable unsecured server. We have no idea what was in those 30,000 emails that were deleted (although Russia and China do), but we all now do know that she deliberately had Intel tags deleted from emails by her subordinates and illegally had intel on her server so classified that the FBI investigators couldn't even LOOK at it without clearance.
Unlike the Plame joke, Hillary literally had the names of undercover agents on a hackable, unsecured server and put all their lives at risk.
And this is not indictable?
You lived in DC a while. I assume you know a few prosecutors there. Ask them how many felonies she triggered.

The Plame thing was total bullshit. 100% political nonsense.
What Hillary did is indictable. But what's depressing isn't that she did it, or that she's since lied about it (she can't open her mouth without lying). What's depressing is the "crime" is a grotesque overreach. Clearly, Hillary did not intend to put sensitive material in the hands of enemies. She intended only to enjoy truly private correspondence which could not be searched. She should go to jail for having the electronic equivalent of secret conversations behind closed doors?
It's said the average person accidentally commits three felonies a day, and the state, by criminalizing almost everything, and eliminating proof of bad intent, has set up a scenario where anyone it wants to put behind bars can be, upon investigation, found guilty of something. For politicians, I'd say that number jumps to 10 felonies a day.
It's an irritating game of "gotcha" enabled by legislators who think the cure for every problem is another law, and prosecutors who use their offices as political assassination squads.
I'm glad Cheney skated, and I hope she skates. (But... If you want to put Cheney on trial for the Iraq War, I'm all for it. That ought to be prosecuted instead of silly shit like the Plame affair.) |
