Rule of law

There will be many columns written about how the American people witnessed how a political elite broke several laws most dealing compromising our national security but because she is who she is there will be no charges filed against her, at least under this administration. This just slapped the American people in the face and told them that certain people are above the law. Of course this should be no big surprise because all of us ‘little people’ have to participate in Obamacare but the political elite don’t.

I want to show just how corrupt this administration, actually both party elites, are. I have never seen it so blatant as I have of late. This investigation I actually believe was very thorough despite the ‘outcome’. I covered this in detail on my radio program this last Tuesday (www.crusaderadio.com, 5:00 pm MDT) and when reading FBI Director Comey’s comment you have to think what kind of threat forced him to come to the unbelievable decision he came to. There have been many people involved with the Cinton’s that have ended up dead. The last count I saw was 42.[1] Just recently a person that was going to testify in the bribery case against the Clinton Foundation, UN Diplomat John Ashe, died ‘suddenly’ while working out.[2] Maybe Comey didn’t want to wake up dead.

Comey explained in his statement what they were looking for: Our investigation looked at whether there is evidence classified information was improperly stored or transmitted on that personal system, in violation of a federal statute making it a felony to mishandle classified information either intentionally or in a grossly negligent way, or a second statute making it a misdemeanor to knowingly remove classified information from appropriate systems or storage facilities.

Consistent with our counterintelligence responsibilities, we have also investigated to determine whether there is evidence of computer intrusion in connection with the personal e-mail server by any foreign power, or other hostile actors.[3] What we need to look at is the statement “federal statute making it a felony to mishandle classified information either intentionally or in a grossly negligent way”. It doesn’t take a brain surgeon to see that Clinton violated this federal law many times. What is really bothersome is the fact that Comey did not take Clintons testimony to Congress into consideration in making his decision.

Clinton told Congress that she neither sent nor received any classified emails on her personal server. When Representative Trey Gowdy questioned him about this a couple days after he announced his decision to not prosecute Clinton Comey stated: “From the group of 30,000 e-mails returned to the State Department, 110 e-mails in 52 e-mail chains have been determined by the owning agency to contain classified information at the time they were sent or received. Eight of those chains contained information that was Top Secret at the time they were sent; 36 chains contained Secret information at the time; and eight contained Confidential information, which is the lowest level of classification. Separate from those, about 2,000 additional e-mails were “up-classified” to make them Confidential; the information in those had not been classified at the time the e-mails were sent.”[4]

Now, when looking at the law it states “it a felony to mishandle classified information either intentionally or in a grossly negligent way”. First of all, she was told that she needed to use an encrypted government server because of the classified information she would be dealing with. NOT using an encrypted server is both mishandleing classified information either intentionally or in a grossly negligent way”. She actually used four different unencrypted servers. Hence she broke the law AND it was proven that she lied to Congress, which is also a felony. Congress can lie to us and that’s just politics, but that is another story.

She told Congress that she turned over all the emails to the FBI, which was about 30,000 emails, but the truth is the FBI found more than 60,000 emails. Another lie to Congress, a felony that you or I would go to jail for doing. She told Congress that her lawyers read all of the emails but the truth is: “The lawyers doing the sorting for Secretary Clinton in 2014 did not individually read the content of all of her e-mails, as we did for those available to us; instead, they relied on header information and used search terms to try to find all work-related e-mails among the reportedly more than 60,000 total e-mails remaining on Secretary Clinton’s personal system in 2014.”[5] This is another lie to Congress and another felony.

Comey went on to define all that they found: “Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information, there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information.

For example, seven e-mail chains concern matters that were classified at the Top Secret/Special Access Program level when they were sent and received. These chains involved Secretary Clinton both sending e-mails about those matters and receiving e-mails from others about the same matters. There is evidence to support a conclusion that any reasonable person in Secretary Clinton’s position, or in the position of those government employees with whom she was corresponding about these matters, should have known that an unclassified system was no place for that conversation. In addition to this highly sensitive information, we also found information that was properly classified as Secret by the U.S. Intelligence Community at the time it was discussed on e-mail (that is, excluding the later “up-classified” e-mails).

None of these e-mails should have been on any kind of unclassified system, but their presence is especially concerning because all of these e-mails were housed on unclassified personal servers not even supported by full-time security staff, like those found at Departments and Agencies of the U.S. Government—or even with a commercial service like Gmail.”[6] Notice that he said “there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information.” Remember the law states “it is a felony to mishandle classified information either intentionally or in a grossly negligent way.”

Then he went on to say “Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information, our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case.”[7] If that statement was true General Petraeus would not have been prosecuted.
There are so many things wrong with this decision that has the American people suddenly realizing that there are members of our political system that have their own rules they follow. They laws they pass are for the little people, you and me, but these elites are better than us and can get away with things that we would go to jail in a heartbeat if we did them. Is it still a surprise that Trump is so popular? Why wouldn’t he be. Notice the polls have him and Hillary neck and neck? Are they really? It was the same with Carter and Reagan but Reagan won 45 states. How can you be neck and neck and lose that bad? Lies. Lies from the media and the parties.

Remember, We the People are the real power in America and we must exercise that power this November. We have left the rule of law and not operate under a dictatorship disguised as a Constitutional Republic.

This week should have woke a lot of people up. Hillary supporters don’t care what she has done. Patriots know what she has done and know that she must be stopped. We must vote!
