Hiding Hillary ...

it's obvious that your desperate agenda requires you to fabricate such implications...

and it's obvious your politics demand you try to hide the elephant in the room.

Just because Hillary has a huge gray ass, that's no reason to call her an elephant.

what, do you think maybe she deleted a letter she wrote to iran or something?

 

[Valerie]

Clinton’s office has said she turned over 30,490 printed copies of emails totaling about 55,000 pages — estimating that more than 90 percent of those emails went to federal employees on the government email system. It also said that 31,830 “private, personal records” were destroyed.

Will we ever know?

How long have various committees requested, then DEMANDED, the release of her emails?

why did she insist she didn't receive a subpoena?

Why did she purge her server, after those requests?

Just what IS she hiding?

you need to imply she was hiding something, you just don't know what it could be, but but but it must be just awful.

and you believe they were "private, personal records"?

Do you have ANY gag reflex left?

depends how you define SEND...

a 21st century communication FROM 47 Republicans openly addressed TO Iran



Amateur Hour




The letter 47 Republican senators sent to Iran is one of the most plainly stupid things a group of senators has ever done.

It is a useful thing when a political party reveals itself as utterly unsuited for national leadership. This may be the one redeeming feature of Monday’s letter to the Iranian government signed by 47 (or, to put it another way, all but seven) Senate Republicans.

Clinton's definition of what is, is?

Why else would she still be hiding it?

...the way our Federal IT shops tend to implement IT policy isn’t through service, it’s through the prescription of antiquated technology. Rather than investing in cloud managed solutions, the feds prefer you to carry around a laptop that can log into a virtual desktop computer that’s often located inside of the basement of an agency. Then, if you’re not in the office, as the Secretary of State often isn’t, you can crank up Outlook, and check your mail. Maybe. If you’ve got the right authentication token with you.

And so you sit there and go “golly, this person needs to hear from me right now, before I go into my next meeting,” and more often than not, you just pop open your gmail, and bang out your quick email because it’s easier and you need to get the job done. Often times, our political leaders are not kind enough to save them and turn them over to the public record as Hillary Clinton did. Sometimes they just delete the messages.


The right solution here isn’t to get more stringent on the archiving stuff, it’s to make the archiving and sunlight stuff in service to the job. The IT department should be saying “what tools do you need in order to do your job in the best way that you see fit” and working backwards from that in order to prevent this sort of thing from becoming as common as it actually is.


Instead of forcing people to use a 2010 blackberry and lotus notes to check their email through a VNC firewall that takes 10 minutes to log into (that, by the way, is demonstrably insecure anyway, compromising not only national security, but also the integrity of the archives in the first place), why not fix that policy, make it easy for people to use the tools they need to use in order to do their jobs, and use some archiving technology from, say, 2010 in order to handle it. The trick here isn’t “make people comply with strong authority,” it’s “make compliance easier, and of service to the people that need to do a job other than recordkeeping”


One final thought: I’d imagine Secretary Clinton at some point emailed the White House.

How or why didn’t the White House tell Hillary to use her official .gov email account?


It could be that they knew the entire classified and unclassified email system was compromised and decided that the smartest thing to do was for her to use her personal email instead.

Do you mean Trey Gowdy, the representative who shows so little respect for democracy that he contacts foreign nations assuming some sort of power the Constitution never gave him, you mean that guy? He should be accused of treason and the right praises him, how appropriate. Curious that the right wing and the republicans so hate democracy they now kowtow to Israel's right wing. Birds of a feather....

Are you off your meds, or do you have any kind of legitimate proof of your accusations?

She ought to be put in jail while they search her office and her house. They should then move on to Huma. Maybe all three women will go to jail at the same time. You know, orange is the new black.

What possible veracity could Clinton or her office enjoy when it was SHE who decided what was private and personal?

I don't believe a word out of her or her allies on any subject under question

VNC firewall?
