Let's see.
A federal judge has ordered Hillary Clinton and two of her top aides to provide more details about their email arrangement to a court while under penalty of perjury.
In a lawsuit against the State Department that was reopened following news of Clinton's private email server, Judge Emmet Sullivan of U.S. District Court ordered Clinton, Cheryl Mills and Huma Abedin to declare under oath that they have produced all government-related records in their possession.
Sullivan also ordered Clinton, Mills and Abedin to identify the email server and any devices they may have used to transmit government records, and to confirm whether Abedin and Mills had access to the private network Clinton reportedly set up in her own home.
The FBI has begun looking into the security of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s private e-mail setup, contacting in the past week a Denver-based technology firm that helped manage the unusual system, according to two government officials.
Also last week, the FBI contacted Clinton’s lawyer, David Kendall, with questions about the security of a thumb drive in his possession that contains copies of work e-mails Clinton sent during her time as secretary of state.
Hillary Clinton's attorney has been allowed to keep emails now known to be classified, but the inspector general of the intelligence community was denied access to the same emails upon request, a State Department spokesman said Wednesday.
"The counsel for former Secretary Clinton advised the department at the time that [the cache of emails] was subject to a separate document request" from the House Select Committee on Benghazi, said Mark Toner, State Department spokesman.
Toner said the intelligence community inspector general's request was denied on "jurisdictional" grounds.
The intelligence watchdog raised concerns about the classified information that was transmitted on Clinton's server last month after discovering four classified emails among a sample of 40.
It was Iowahawk who quipped:
Starting to think the only reason Hillary's running is to avoid indictment.
— David Burge (@iowahawkblog) April 27, 2015
Run (from the law), Hillary, Run!
SO THE DAY'S NOT OVER YET: There's apparently more yet to learn. By way of Ace, federal sources say the FBI probe of Hillary's email is definitely criminal in nature.
And speaking of things we learned today, I did not know this: David Kendall, Hillary's lawyer with the thumb drive of her emails, was also David Petreaus's lawyer when he pled guilty to mishandling classified documents.
But Chelsea is our only real princess. Jail all of them just in case.

"I don't need any lessons from you on who I represent," replied SoS Kerry to Rep. Scott Perry during last weeks hearing when reminded he works for the US last week.
“This”—a congressional rejection—“will be the ultimate screwing.” Sounds like the reminder was warranted.
And the FBI doesn't look into cupcake sales. They investigate crimes, Hillary.

henry,
Jail is too good for them. Let them be Iran nuclean deal inspectors along with Obama. That is the job I want them to have. Permanent basis, lodging and meals in Tehran until we can verify they have a bomb and then they get to difuse it.
Don't cut the red wire.
Posted by: Jack is Back! | August 05, 2015 at 06:14 PM
For our legal beagles: Can a non-cleared attorney keep potential classified material like Kendall is doing for Hillary? I was once close to an article 15 because I had put a un marked bomb map in my flight suit because it was not current and forgot until I got toi my billet. My CO riipped me a new asshole and reminded me of my obligation in re security.
How can someone like Clinton not be subject to the same discipline and enforcement because her lawher has the drive?
Posted by: Jack is Back! | August 05, 2015 at 06:24 PM
Too small for 50 or 60 thousand emails? Apparently all of her work-related emails could be stored on a thumb drive, which David Kendall, with no security clearance, is currently in possession of.
Btw, did they save the attachments? Were those included in the 30,000 emails she printed out?

Perhaps Kendall has a security clearance, if not I don't see how they let him keep them.

David Kendall might have had a clearance back in the 90's, when he was working as Clinton's attorney.
However, I didn't think security clearances were permanent. I thought when you left government employ they expired.

Kendall may have a clearance, but that doesn't mean he has a need to know the specifics of the documents in question. Even with a clearance trying to access information you have no work related reason to see is still against regulation. It's a reportable violation. That's how they usually catch spys. I don't see how cleaning up Hillary's mess applies. Maybe attorney client privilege, but I'd be in cuffs if I left stuff lying around on a thumb drive no less.

So, Michael Isikoff writes about the lack of an IG at CIA. He brings up some of the examples of Obama's dither and delay in other departments . . . in the penultimate paragraph he mentions the VA and Interior . . . but doesn't mention Hillary or State.

The most personally disappointing and infuriating thing about Barry the commie to me is; as a long married man with two kids that are actually his kids, think of the good he could have done if the last 6 1/2 years wasted on blacklivesmatter and JustUs and trying to cram ghettos into the suburbs he had spent them up twinkling intact black families, interested in personal achievement and hard work regardless of what the crackers are up to and had laid down a hard red line of over expectations rather than assuming the worst and the least and enforcing the victimhood and misplaced anger which is killing a thousand times the blacks the cops are and has enslaved whole generations of inner city youth.
Instead almost nothing from him but a little bit of pathetic lip service.
That wasted opportunity to actually have a legacy that mattered should have be a crime.

Posted by: sbwaters | August 05, 2015 at 10:13 PM
That security clearance is BS to me.
At her level there would be additional clearances besides Top Secret, either for compartmentalization or secure access.
No independent lawyer would have these, and it is doubtful that any outside of government, or at least anyone not directly engaged in by government over the particular issues or time period would have them. I am doubtful that he even has a Top Secret clearance. If he does have SAP or SCI clearances (the former for access; the later for compartmentalization) I can think of no good reason why he should have such a thing.
And there is an additional point. These sort of categories in the end rely on specific hardware and software configurations, and human interaction protocols to keep the data safe. One does not just stick a server somewhere and have some third part service run it.
What is going on here is just plain outrageous: It is a member of the Democrat political machine breaking the law being just outrageously shielded by the Administration and the apparatchiks. Pure Soviet nonsense.
It is preposterous, and it needs to be stopped, and that means indicting everyone involved, including her lawyers.
If any of us did this they would lock us up and throw away the key. There can be no doubt to this.
It is preposterous that an IG cannot get the actual info from a lawyer who is a private citizen. It does not matter what his "clearance" is, that is not the point; it is nothing but a red herring.
Who will ever trust us again?
The self-absorption of these people; their solipsism is worse than their arrogance.
This goes way beyond partisan politics, and the rest of the Democrat Establishment should know this--indeed must know this. One can only conclude that between Obama and Clinton they have some real dirt on key people.
After all the hue and cry about Libby Scooter, this is particularly vile.
These people have no regard for the country whatsoever. None.

It's a reportable violation.
You bet it is; it is a Federal Felony, and depending on what happened it can be anywhere from a class C to a Class A Felony.
Farther down the food chain, people go to jail for this sort of stuff.
It is absurd for the FBI to "check to see if it is safe and secure", and I do not care "how smart the lawyer is"; the FBI is not doing their job. They should have just demanded right then and there, and if it was not given, go straight to a judge and get the paper to go into the safe and get it.
What we are hearing is just absurd, and I am surprised we are not hearing from serious retired top level Intel people about this.
The ramifications are huge. They are doing incredible damage that goes far beyond Hillary's political career or ambitions.

Couldn't figure out what to do with no welfare check mail delivery. Couldn't figure out how to make do without disposable diapers. They literally were just standing there waiting for someone to do something for them.
Sort of like the people in central Florida back in the 90's who were waiting for FEMA to come help. After two days of that, I would have packed up my family and driven or even walked 40 miles north to where there was A/C and water.
I just am amazed at the silliness and incompetence of so many people.

Big nothingburger. They couldn't agree on whether it was intentional or not.

They will wear "Hickory High" inspired uniforms in select games, and the organization is selling t-shirts, which will make them bundles of money around here.
I am just barely old enough to remember Milan winning the state championship in 1956, and the movie was very authentic to the state tourney in those days. People still talk about it, and this promotion is acctually a genius idea.

They held the opening yesterday, heard it reported on BBC. Great national pride. They sold bonds to Egyptian citizens and paid for it themselves.

Already cheating.

MissM at 6:17. Intentionality doesn't matter. The IRS is guilty based on disparate impact.

This is interesting. Big rise in minority listeners. Somebody better pay attention to radio ads.
