Richard Nixon Is Laughing His ASS Off

She won't go to prison regardless of what happens with the emails, because there was no laws she broke.....only flimsy Record Admin's guidelines that didn't even have any punishments written out.

You don't go to prison for breaking the workplace's rules, you get fired for it, and she already left.
If she cleaned that server, that means she had SOLE possession of government documents AFTER she left the post. It has ALREADY been shown she did NOT sign off on the document release as REQUIRED by law when she left. {felony}

If she scrubbed that server AFTER the START of the investigation she tampered with evidence. {felony} Trey Gowdy was NOT your typical "ambulance chaser". He was a felony prosecutor and a damn good one. {look it up}

It's over okay? Just flat over.

They weren't government documents as she used the email as a private email, so it was at her discretion as to what to delete and what to turn over. That's more an aspect of how behind the national government is with cyber-security.

Tampering with evidence is a really long shot since she did turn over everything she claims is relevant to the government affairs, and I still think the whole Benghazi issue is long dead at this point.

What's really awkward about all this is that Gowdy had hundreds of emails from and to Clinton with the @clintonemail.com address and he never thought to bring it up the entire time during the select committee. Talk about inept....that must be kinda embarrassing for him.
Her sole discretion?

That must be nice. How far up do you have to be before you get to decide what evidence is used in a case against you?

No wonder why prosecuting ANYONE in high offices seems impossible - people like you are just fine if those under scrutiny get to decide what is 'evidence' and what can be destroyed.

What makes the difference in the days of Nixon and now? The Republicans policed themselves and didn't fight prosecuting Nixon. They wanted to get to the bottom of Watergate and take anyone down that deserved it. Not like the Democrats covering for Hill and Bill. They think it;s just fine to hide evidence that may bring her highness down.

You don't know what you're talking about, the GOP tried to cover for Nixon as long as they could. It wasn't until the Supreme Court ordered Nixon to turn over the tapes that they abandoned him.

You are writing garbage. The GOP supported Nixon has long as they could, and so did his supporters, including me, until the last week before he resigned. He had a Senate that would not convict him before that. Only the last week did that change.
Not true. Don't you remember the Saturday night massacre? He was doing his best to fire anybody close to him, blaming others. The party was closing in.
 
You are living in la la land, Jackson. Go back and read your history. Nixon was under fire, yes, and some in his own party, yes, and he was safe until a week before he resigned, yes.
 
Nixon, told by the Senate Majority Leader that impeachment and conviction would happen, announced his retirement two days later.
 
I know Jimmy Carter, and Cruz is no Jimmy Carter. Cruz will get his ass kicked out of the campaign long before Iowa.

His conviction would have led to his doing time. Thus the pardon from Ford.

I don't think Obama plans on a pardon for Hillary. Obama needs someone he trusts to replace him because he may well need a pardon.
 
There will be no impeachment so no need for a pardon.

There may be a trial upcoming for Trey Gowdy.
 
If there was a subpena for documents from that server before she wiped the data, she committed a crime of destruction of evidence. Wiping data off of a server is no different than having a 'shredder' party back in the 1970's.
 
Was it a court-order subpoena?

A former Secretary of State, as any executive officer, can ignore a congressional request.

Shes not the secretary of state now, and no, former SecState do not have the protection of the executive with regard to subpoena. She is just a private citizen now.

The only question is timing. Destruction of requested documents is a crime.

Like I said in the OP. WHO and WHEN was the server scrubbed?

Those are your words, not mine. I said "request" and, yes, a congressional "subpoena" is not absolute either for a former executive officer.
 
Was having a secret tape recording against the law back then?

What do you think of using the IRS against political enemies?

The point is that Nixon was safe from impeachment until a week before his resignation.

Failure to obey a Congressional subpoena is a criminal offense, the same as failing to obey a court subpoena.
