Hillary Clintons Damning Emails ~ Consortiumnews.com April 30, 2016 Exclusive: Before the Democrats lock in their choice for President, they might want to know if Hillary Clinton broke the law with her unsecure emails and may be indicted, a question that ex-CIA analyst Ray McGovern addresses. By Ray McGovern A few weeks after leaving office, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton may have breathed a sigh of relief and reassurance when Director of National Intelligence James Clapper denied reports of the National Security Agency eavesdropping on Americans. After all, Clinton had been handling official business at the State Department like many Americans do with their personal business, on an unsecured server. In sworn testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee on March 12, 2013, Clapper said the NSA was not collecting, wittingly, any type of data at all on millions or hundreds of millions of Americans, which presumably would have covered Clintons unsecured emails. But NSA contractor Edward Snowdens revelations starting on June 5, 2013 gave the lie to Clappers testimony, which Clapper then retracted on June 21 coincidentally, Snowdens 30th birthday when Clapper sent a letter to the Senators to whom he had, well, lied. Clapper admitted his response was clearly erroneous for which I apologize. (On the chance you are wondering what became of Clapper, he is still DNI.) :::snip::: Clinton even explained what extraordinary lengths she and her people went to in safeguarding government secrets: When I would go to China or would go to Russia, we would leave all my electronic equipment on the plane with the batteries out, because theyre trying to find out not just about what we do in our government, theyre going after the personal emails of people who worked in the State Department. Yes, she said that. (emphasis added) Read more: https://consortiumnews.com/2016/04/30/hillary-clintons-damning-emails/

If you consider him a right winger then you need to step back and look at your integrity. He was a instrumental in the media reporting on Iran-Contra affair of Reagan. In case you don't know Reagan was a Right Winger. He has won George Polk Awards and I.F. Stone Medal for Journalistic Independence(The award is presented annually to a journalist whose work captures the spirit of independence, integrity, courage given by Harvard) . He wrote a book "Neck Deep: The Disastrous Presidency of George W. Bush" So might want to take back the Right wing tripe crap.

This guy is not some Fox news reporter. If he is talking about this then I would take him seriously.

He's so far up Putin's ass that they see with the same eyes.

His coverage of the downing of MH17 was fucking laughable.

Even when it's by a respected progressive who's written about liberal causes for decades - from Iran hostage to Iran Contra to Iraq and Afghanistan. A man who's fought to get to the root of obfuscation and share those findings with the left.
