Andrea Mitchell wants answers about the IG report. Watch Hillary surrogate deflect every single

[jillan]

question.
All Adam Schiff says is - well, so and so did it too.
Unreal.

Nice to know that Andrea Mitchell still can muster up journalistic integrity from time to time.

[silvershadow]

1. K&R

[nenagh]

2. Incrediblly difficult to watch...

but thanks for posting...

[CorporatistNation]

24. SChiff Is Just Another Self Serving Toadie... Carrying The Water, Misrepresenting FACTS Laid Out In

THE REPORT... attempting to add confusion to the public spectre in order to minimize the damage to someone who has a hard time telling you what she had for breakfast on a good day without concocting a story. This phenomenon of Hillary being less than truthful and transparent is engrained i her character.

[elleng]

3. A. Mitchell did well,

unlike Schiff playing hrc sycophant.

[cui bono]

4. That's my congress critter.

.

[MrMickeysMom]

46. Nice rose color cheeks...

Matches his glasses...

[Vinca]

5. The new mantra of the Clinton campaign is -

"She made a mistake and she regrets it. She made a mistake and she regrets it. She made a mistake and she regrets it." LOL. I'm sure the FBI will take than into consideration.

[Press Virginia]

6. If it was a mistake and she regretted it, she wouldn't have lied about

It being allowed by state dept rules and completely above board. And she certainly wouldn't have needed 4 months, after it was discovered, to claim she made a mistake. Not turning her stuff over, when leaving office, was a deliberate act.

[cantbeserious]

61. Yes - One Too Many Mistakes For This Citizen - Out With The Old - Time For The New - Go Bernie Go

eom

[BootinUp]

7. Sounds like some at DU swallowed Andreas talking points hook, line, and sinker

BUT its the MSM ! Don't Listen to them! (unless they are attacking evil Hillary).

[Nuclear Unicorn]

11. Do you have actual answers to the questions or are you upset Hillary has to endure

the indignity of being questioned by the commoners?

[BootinUp]

14. Schiff refuted her talking points with no problem. nt

[Nuclear Unicorn]

15. Is that in a different video?

[BootinUp]

16. lol, keep your Bernie filter on. Its almost over. nt

[Nuclear Unicorn]

17. "But officer, that other driver is at least half as drunk as I am," is not a winning defense.

[BootinUp]

21. Let me know when any laws are involved, until then keep flogging the records rules

dead horse.

[Nuclear Unicorn]

22. Laws on non-disclosure and security, laws on FOIA compliance, laws on adherence to classification

laws on maintaining official records, laws on utilizing approved systems and practices and probably laws against quid pro quo come to mind.

It's not like the FBI is engaged in a security review.

[BootinUp]

23. I'm sure reports that an indictment from the FBI appears unlikely are wrong

I am also sure the Judicial watch RW witch hunt wil succeed.

Not.

[Nuclear Unicorn]

27. Lots of things have been reported to Hillary's benefit. So far each of them has fallen away, in turn

However, since you equate no indictment as proof of innocence I suppose we were all wrong about Bush as he was never indicted over anything.

[BootinUp]

28. Since you persist, and try to equate some records problems with the man who lied us into war

I'll try to explain some facts of Government to you.

I suppose you were one the folks who back in 2006, hollerered unrealistically for an impeachment of Bush? Because I don't know what indictment you expected against him. He was protected by the will of the country for the most part. Impeachments are political things, they are not about codified laws.

Since you made the comparison above, I can see that there is nothing, not 10's of thousands of released emails, not obvious laxness throughout the State Dept on records for many years and administrations, not the ridiculous overboard RW efforts over the past 2 years to pin something on Hillary, that will get past your anti-Hillary filter.

Good day to you.

[Nuclear Unicorn]

31. You can claim impotence but from here it looks like complicity.

[bobbobbins01]

42. These are the laws involved:

18USC793f
18USC1519
44USC3101
18USC2071
5USC522

[BootinUp]

43. The IG recommendations and conclusions were particularly troubling

for Hillary. Not.

[bobbobbins01]

44. They don't determine if laws were broken, its not what they do.

So of course they wouldn't make specific recommendations for Hillary. I've posted the laws in question, and the FBI will make a recommendation, not the IG.

[Barack_America]

18. You mean the State IG's talking points?

The "vast right wing conspiracy" now extends to Obama appointees?

[BootinUp]

20. Oh yeah, the conclusion just rips Hillary up doesn't it? Lets look at it again...

CONCLUSION
Longstanding, systemic weaknesses related to electronic records and communications have existed within the Office of the Secretary that go well beyond the tenure of any one Secretary of State. OIG recognizes that technology and Department policy have evolved considerably since Secretary Albright’s tenure began in 1997. Nevertheless, the Department generally and the Office of the Secretary in particular have been slow to recognize and to manage effectively the legal requirements and cybersecurity risks associated with electronic data communications, particularly as those risks pertain to its most senior leadership. OIG expects that its recommendations will move the Department steps closer to meaningfully addressing these risks.

8. This is proof that the media

Can very clearly do their job and report facts. And draw contrasts and dig deep.

How refreshing.

[Mnpaul]

29. Jane Pauley filled in for Scott Pelley last night

and did a good job covering it as well as the rest of the news.

[Karma13612]

34. that would have been nice to see. sorry I missed it!

they are CBS, right?

catching glimpses of actual journalism are rare sights, a little like seeing an endangered species up close.

We need to put 'true journalists' on an endangered species list, or maybe grade networks and journalists by their level of journalistic integrity.

Have it be updated and monitored and available on a watchdog type site.

I think it would be great. Maybe then, the networks would take notice if their traffic slowed or increased based on rankings by independent parties trying to improve reporting in this country.

[Mnpaul]

41. Some clips are online

Bernie/Trump coverage

[ucrdem]

9. What do you expect him to say?

Crucify her? It's a thankless task but the media needs its news I guess.

[SwampG8r]

10. Wow a steady stream of lies

And tossi g kerry under the bus too

[pdsimdars]

37. An interesting fact -- it was Kerry who alerted the two IGs to look into Hillary's email situation

[B Calm]

12. Hillary is campaigning she's tough on National Security, lol. This email

scandal will not go away. She's a flawed candidate and how unfortunate the DNC pushed her. If we end up with a Pres Trump, point your finger at the DNC!

[gordianot]

13. When you lose the support of corporate money shills you have problems.

Even running against an openly fascist anti-Democratic egomaniac that a majority of Americans despise becomes a task. Hillary Clinton has proven she cannot be trusted with the most basic security and has surrounded herself with liars, hacks, or worse. Trump should be easy. Democratic Party I do not care who you elect as long as it is not Hillary Clinton. Democratic Party it is up to you (Clinton and Sanders partisans) to sort out this mess. We are at the mercy of unknown forces to save us from a downward spiral into chaos.

[jack_krass]

19. There was a tightening of the rules in 2009. "so and so did it" is not a valid excuse

[gordianot]

25. Hillary was the first SOS to use email on a large scale.Colin Powell only experimented with email.

[NorthCarolina]

26. Perhaps team HRC should just stick to Tweety and Toadie,

with maybe a little Rachel mixed in.

[oberliner]

30. This video is from Corey Lewandowski's YouTube page

People are literally posting videos on DU that come directly from the Trump campaign.

[BootinUp]

33. +1

[jillan]

47. This is from MSNBCs website. Are they working for Trump now?

Well maybe they are come to think of it. Every time I turn on MS NBC they are talking about Trump.

[oberliner]

48. No it's not, it's from Corey Lewandowski's YouTube page

MSNBC doesn't name it's videos: "MSNBC host GRILLS hack Clinton surrogate over phony email talking points".

The Trump campaign does that.

This is where the video in the OP comes from:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCA3WTX5cvWVpHjVIvzZdOgA

That is Corey Lewandowski's YouTube page.

[CorkySt.Clair]

49. Berners here love trump

So not a surprise.

[jillan]

50. It's an MSNBC video. Period.

[oberliner]

54. No, it's not. Click on the YouTube video in your own OP.

Click on the word "YouTube" in the bottom right corner of the video you posted.

It takes you to Corey Lewandowski's YouTube page.

[BillZBubb]

51. So your ad hominen attack makes it invalid? That's pathetic.

You Hillary fans will do anything to cover for Her Majesty.

[oberliner]

56. Not at all

I am not claiming anything about the validity of the video.

I am just expressing surprise and dismay that someone would post a video off of Corey Lewandowski's YouTube page.

He is, after all, the campaign manager for Donald Trump.

[Uncle Joe]

32. Kicked and recommended.

Thanks for the thread, jillan.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

35. If he is the best that team Hillary can provide

her campaign is doomed.

Boy, that was painfully awkward.

[pdsimdars]

38. "Painful" is the perfect word. . . OUCH! It hurt the brain to hear his gyrations.

[yourpaljoey]

36. He seems unable to tell the truth. Sad.

[pdsimdars]

40. Birds of a feather. . . . . . Team Hillary

[99Forever]

39. What a lousy liar.

This clown couldn't fool a 5 year old. Sit down and shut up lying shill.

[yourpaljoey]

45. Exactly. The Theatre of the Absurd.

At least he got a chance to use the artifices taught in Logical Fallacies 201.

[yallerdawg]

52. Isn't this the same group that tagged her "Mrs. Greenspan?"

Now she's the 'talented Andrea Mitchell.'

'Confirmation bias' indeed, Dilbert!

[notadmblnd]

53. Hill says-operating an off the grid server done to ensure her privacy in regards to personal life.

What could be so secret about her personal life that it was more important to guard than national security?

[winter is coming]

58. The best way to guard her "personal life" would have been to host

personal and work emails separately. Fine, use a home-brew server for your private life if you want, but leave work at work.

[BillZBubb]

55. That was embarrassing. You've got to give him credit though, he stuck to the script.

We I was kid, the "Mom, everyone else did it too!" excuse never, ever worked. The Hillary campaign never grew up.

[pmorlan1]

57. All the Same Talking Points

Everyone that has come out to defend Hillary whether on air or in writing has used all of the same talking points. This is circling the wagons, folks. These people also forget that all of us have access to this report. We can read it for ourselves. It's a lot harder to spin when we can see the actual report and we know you aren't telling the truth.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

59. Lackies covering the boss's ass.

[oberliner]

60. Why are people posting videos from Donald Trump's campaign manager's YouTube page?

With a title created by Lewandowski himself.

MSNBC host GRILLS hack Clinton surrogate over phony email talking points – [VIDEO]
Corey Lewandowski

Published on May 27, 2016
Today on her show, Andrea Mitchell grilled Clinton Democrat hack surrogate Adam Schiff who tries to play down the email scandal with phony talking points. But Mitchell didn’t let him get away with it, correcting him a couple of times on the facts versus his spin.

You know it’s funny. Mitchell, who did a good job of making sure her viewers knew the actual facts, would probably never have done this with Hillary herself. Hillary would have made sure of that.

But hey, I guess we’ll take what we can get.

Source of OP video: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCA3WTX5cvWVpHjVIvzZdOgA

DU ought to, at the very least, not have OP's that link to the Trump campaign manager's websites.

[polly7]

63. Is the video altered or faked? nt.

[Juicy_Bellows]

62. Andrea Mitchell : Does it look like it's raining?

Mr. Schiff : Well, I wouldn't call that rain, perhaps precipitation or a light mist.

[Demsrule86]

64. Really Greenspans better half?

She is a Republican and unwatchable.
