Probably. In other words, Hil ain't giving up her crown. She is the chosen one.

This is just hurtful talk. She will be in her safe space until it ceases.

Thanks for that clarification. I see what the article meant to say now.

Clinton Campaign Spokesman Brian Fallon:

“This is the same interagency dispute that has been playing out for months, and it does not change the fact that these emails were not classified at the time they were sent or received”

This guy is a real tool, as well as the rest of the Hillary camp. She had SAP communications on an unsecured server, AND instructed her staff to remove a classification notice and send on a non-secure fax line.

This is long past cut and dried. Anyone else would already have been indicted and tried for this crap.

The time is near where this silly shit is played out and things are going to take a very serious tone and she damn well knows it.
She's not sleeping well, I can almost guarantee it.

Even I, who is more skeptical than most of her even being touched by this am starting to feel a wind of change coming.

Clinton campaign accuses Obama IG appointee of trying to smear Hillary....

http://www.mcclatchydc.com/new...article55628755.html

Hillary Clinton’s spokesman accused the Intelligence Community Inspector General Wednesday of working with Republicans to attack the Democratic presidential front-runner.

“I think this was a very coordinated leak,” Brian Fallon said on CNN. “Two months ago there was a...report that directly challenged the finding of this inspector general, and I don’t think he liked that very much. So I think that he put two Republican senators up to sending him a letter so that he would have an excuse to resurface the same allegations he made back in the summer that have been discredited.”

The comments came after Inspector General Charles McCullough III told senators that he believes at least several dozen of emails Clinton sent and received while she was secretary of state contained classified material at the highest levels, according to a letter obtained by McClatchy.

McCullough was nominated by President President Barack Obama in August 2011 to be the first inspector general for the 16 intelligence agencies and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. He was unanimously confirmed by the Senate Intelligence Committee that October. The full Senate agreed by unanimous consent in November.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein, a California Democrat who used to head the intelligence committee, described McCullough as “well-qualified.”

“He has long experience conducting investigations both as an inspector general and a FBI agent,” Feinstein said in a floor speech in November 2011. “He is an attorney and is well-familiar with the intelligence community.”

Other Democrats agreed.

“We've heard good things about you and I'm looking forward to supporting you when Chair Feinstein moves ahead with the vote,” Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Oregon said in September 2011.

“You clearly have been able to operate in both the civilian and the military sectors which will, I think, prove to be a very valuable set of experiences, if you're confirmed,” Sen. Mark Udall, D-Colorado. said in September 2011.

Clinton has been under fire for months for exclusively using personal email routed through a private server while serving as the nation’s top diplomat. The FBI launched an inquiry into the handling of sensitive information after classified information was found in some.

At least 1,340 emails that Hillary Clinton sent or received contained classified material, according to the State Department’s latest update from its ongoing review of more than 30,000 emails.

In response to a public records lawsuit, the State Department is releasing Clinton’s emails at the end of each month after partially or entirely redacting any containing sensitive U.S. or foreign government information. The last batch is due this month.

None of Clinton’s emails was marked as classified during her tenure, State Department officials say, but intelligence officials say some material was clearly classified at the time. Her aides also sent and received classified information.

In a Jan. 14 letter sent to the chairman of the Senate Intelligence and Foreign Relations committees, McCullough said some of the information in Clinton’s emails was classified as "top secret/SAP" or "special access program." That is a more restricted category than previously thought. The letter was first reported by FOX News.

Fallon said on CNN that he believes the issue refers to the forwarding of a New York Times story about drones.

“Their chief defense against accusations that Clinton improperly sent and received classified information on an unsecure device is that the independent intelligence community Inspector General teamed up with Republicans to take Clinton down,” said Jeff Bechdel, a spokesman for America Rising PAC, which is collecting opposition research on Clinton. “This level of paranoia is not just indicative of a desperate campaign, but of a deep mistrust in the federal government and the ability of public officials to be impartial.”

These antics are just part of the Kenny Stabler ploy, just don't let the clock run out. As long as there is time on the clock, maybe something good will happen, maybe you can make something good happen. Admit nothing, concede nothing, wait for the other guy to make a mistake.

Another angle on this is I have read the team of FBI agents working on this case are clamoring loudly for this to be prosecuted, stating that other cases have been successfully prosecuted with much less evidence. I have heard this team of FBI agents is close to 100 people. If this is NOT prosecuted, I suspect some of those agents to be frustrated to the point of going public with what they know. Although that would be the end of their career, for a conspirator this high profile, and a team of agents this large, something will leak somewhere.

On the other hand, I am surprised HRC has not thrown her close staff, like Huma A, under the bus. She could claim they sliced off the classifications and emailed the classified information over the Internet without telling her the proper classification of the material. I know there is that memo from HRC's account stating she instructed her staff to do this, but she'll just state she wasn't the one handling her email. I'm sure she has assistants that she will claim handled her email for her.

Throwing Huma Abedin or Cheryl Mills under the bus would be extremely dangerous for HC.

These 2 appear to be HC's closest associates going back 20 years. If either Abedin or Mills came clean, HC would be toast.

Speaking of Huma....

New 'Weiner' documentary could cost Hillary Clinton women's votes...

http://www.foxnews.com/enterta...n-votes/?intcmp=hpff

A new documentary about the 2013 mayoral run of disgraced ex-Congressman Anthony Weiner could be the latest thorn in the side of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.

Previewed exclusively by the New York Times this week, “Weiner” was deemed by the paper a “visceral film” that is a “potentially distracting” issue in Clinton’s campaign, as Weiner’s wife, Huma Abedin, one of Clinton's closest advisors, appears throughout.

The Times says “Weiner” shows how “Ms. Abedin — with facial expressions ranging from hurt to hostile — copes with the second sex scandal to engulf her husband’s career and crush her hopes of becoming a powerful political wife.”

After it premieres at the Sundance Film Festival, “Weiner” will be released in theaters on May 20, and is slated to have a TV premiere on Showtime in October, just weeks ahead of the general election.

Tony Sayegh, a Republican strategist and Fox News Contributor, said the “Weiner” repercussions could be very real for Clinton, and cost her the support of some female voters.

“Among the more damaging is that it reveals another example of how hollow the ‘war on women’ argument is when coming from the Hillary camp, disabling that most favorite of perennial liberal ad hominem attacks is the equivalent of taking Superman's ability to leap tall buildings away,” Sayegh told FOX411. “For both Anthony Weiner and Bill Clinton, their sexual misconduct went well beyond the realm of a ‘boys will be boys’ defense. And it was Hillary and Huma to the rescue all in the name personal advancement. That is not a story Hillary wants out there, especially through a more popular medium that has the ability to reach a broader audience.”

But Brad Blakeman, a member of former President George W. Bush’s Senior Staff and a Professor of Public Policy, Politics and International Affairs at Georgetown University, says the documentary “is the least of Hillary’s concerns.”

“If you like Hillary, the film will reinforce the ‘vast right wing conspiracy’ and if you don’t like Hillary the film will just validate what you already thought,” he said.

Dan Gerstein, an independent political strategist and owner of Gotham Ghostwriters, a ghostwriting agency that specializes in speeches, agreed with Blakeman that while the documentary could be a distraction to Clinton’s presidential bid, she has bigger fish to fry.

“It affects her aide,” he said, referring to Abedin. “It’s an indirect negative, and therefore the press finds it more interesting than the public does. I’m not trying to say it’s a positive by any means. Clinton has much bigger issues affecting her campaign than a side show like this.”

One person who couldn’t care less about the movie? Weiner’s sexting partner, Sydney Leathers.

“I’m not concerned about any of it coming back up because I find it hilarious. It’s not a big deal to me,” Leathers told FOX411. “It’s certainly not a good look for Hillary. There are comparisons to be made between Weiner’s behavior and Bill’s behavior. I find it fascinating the way Huma and Hillary have handled infidelity in their marriages. It seems they apply a ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell Policy’ when it comes to [their husbands].”

Leathers, who found herself entangled in yet another sexting scandal with Indiana State Rep Justin Moed in 2015, had a few more words for Weiner.

“He should just be happy anyone cares about him after he resigned from Congress and had a failed mayoral bid,” she added. “What other unemployed, sex obsessed, creepy middle-aged men have documentaries coming out about them?”

FOX411 reached out to Anthony Weiner, Huma Abedin, the Hillary Clinton campaign, and filmmakers Josh Kriegman and Elyse Steinberg, but did not receive comment.

I hope Baghdad Brian can keep her updated while she's in the pen.

That stings.

But Anthony probably digs that so....

Simply a phenomenal name for a movie. Fantastic.

Hmmm, I suddenly have an urge to watch Game of Thrones.

Sounds like we need to make sure Weiner is in the face of every feminist out there.

It's fascinating that she was not able (or willing) to recognize a special access program.

Probably spending too much time at FB or Twitter. Or engaging in "girlie talk" with Huma.



Actually,

I see what you're doing there.....



Usually, and this is just my own personal opinion, every feminist I ever came across wasn't good looking enough to put Weiner in their face. Just sayin'.....

But none of these contained sensitive material. Why does anything have to be redacted?

That was in order to keep them out of the hands of Americans.

On another note, the ONLY GUY that has made them a topic during his campaign is of course Trump. In late summer, he told the press corp that Weiner was "one of the great sleezeballs of our time", and "so Huma is getting classified secrets, she's married to Anthony Weiner who's a perv". I have a feeling he is not going to forget the couple.
