Clinton Likely Committed "Biggest Violation of Federal Records Act in History

[floriduck]

It's as if the act was written to protect their own. But does this mean just because the skirted (please, no sexist replies) the law by resigning her position, she should be excused? PLEASE DON'T REPLY UNLESS YOU READ THE ARTICLE.

"Yet there are absolutely no penalties provided by law for this misconduct. The FRA, if violated, does provide a basis for some action being taken against an employee — but only a personnel-type administrative action that simply does not work if the employee is “long gone.”

3. Fifteen more days, onehandle, and us long time DUers will have our site back.

After the primaries on June 7 (California, New Jersey, etc.)...

...we will announce that the primaries are nearing an end, and members will have one more week to "get it out of their systems".

The final Democratic presidential primary is Tuesday, June 14 in Washington DC. People will have one last glorious day of primary season on June 15, and then Democratic Underground general election season begins on Thursday, June 16.

22. Oh please. The majority of "long time DUers" support Sanders.

At least those of us who haven't already been TS'ed for criticizing Obama and her Highness of DLC.

[cliffordu]

32. No we won't

[DemocratSinceBirth]

33. Yes, we will

What part of:

When the voting is over the primary is over on DU.

This has gone on long enough. Once the voting is done I have no interest in pretending everyone doesn't already know the outcome.

My opinion is that Donald Trump represents an unprecedented threat to this country, and I have no interest in providing a platform for people to act like a Trump presidency isn't such a big deal. I have permitted it during primary season because many people seem determined to pretend we live in a fantasyland where Republicans don't exist -- but once the primary is over reality sets in and we can no longer afford to ignore our Republican opponent.

don't you understand?

There are one billion sites on the "internets". Surely you can find one where trashing od the Democratic nominee is not only accepted, but encouraged.

[cliffordu]

34. And what makes you think that I am interested in

Trashing the Democratic party's candidate?

Maybe I'll just lurk for three years and see who we've got to run against Trump.

I like the lounge and can be quite happy to while my time away there.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

35. Embodied in your response is the assertion Trump will win.

I will take that wager. If Trump wins I leave DU forever. If Clinton wins you leave DU forever.

[cliffordu]

36. Not gonna play.

I'll wait for the FBI.

In the mean time you hall monitors should go police somewhere else. I'm perfectly aware of the TOS and can manage to not run afoul of the true owners of this website, hopefully, to your annoyance.

Shoo! Shoo!

Go browbeat someone who cares what you think.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

38. Your paucity of conviction doesn't surprise me, not a bit.

Have a day.

2. Colin Powell used his personal gmail account

to correspond with the British prime minister and French president in the run-up to the Iraq war.

And when the State Department archivists asked him for his emails, his answer was that he had deleted every single one one.

So much for your hyperbolic claim.

[floriduck]

9. But not from his unsecured, unapproved server in his house.

4. No she didn't.

[floriduck]

10. That's your opinion. The source of the article has his.

[Skwmom]

5. No duh.

[mwrguy]

6. I don't care

Just like millions of other voters.

[floriduck]

11. And there are million who do care. So what's. We'll see how it plays out.

[oberliner]

7. Sounds like they should update the FRA

So that in the future there are clear penalties that currently do not exist.

[floriduck]

13. Otherwise, what's the motive to abide by the law if you plan to bail? Agreed.

8. Tossing bombs into the void

Everybody here has made up their mind eons ago, so these are just posted to start fights.

[floriduck]

15. No, whenever there is something to add, it gets added.

[Dem2]

20. Whatever you say.

[seabeyond]

12. Give it a fuckin' rest.

[floriduck]

39. Well, that was fun. Hey Major,

How the hell are you.....? Good to see you. Thank you for sharing the jury. Sometimes, really interesting.

[Major Nikon]

44. I am well, hope you are too

[leveymg]

28. FRA is meaningless compared to the Espionage Act violations.

When America realizes that an unindicted co-conspirator is running for President, her race is over.

[pdsimdars]

43. Yes, seems like many people seem to think this is about the Federal Records Act.

She had at least 22 messages on her private, non government, non secure, home server that were at a classification level higher than Top Secret.

To do that they had to be TAKEN OFF of a secure, government server and transported ONTO her non secure, non government server.

They cannot be emailed from a government server to a non government server or an alert is sent.
That is just ONE of the issues.

How do you STEAL classified government material and transport it to your house? We're all waiting to hear this.

[leveymg]

46. She explained exactly how its done:"turn into nonpaper w no identifying heading and send nonsecure"

That's how you steal government material and transport it to your house. Have someone else do it for you.

And then there was the always popular, "Keep 'em coming" to Blumenthal.

[MFM008]

29. Im still desperate to

Give a flock on this issue.

30. Oh, please: "Rove Erases 22 Million White House Emails on Private Server at Height of U.S. Attorney

Flashback: Rove Erases 22 Million White House Emails on Private Server at Height of U.S. Attorney Scandal – Media Yawns
Now that they’ve taken control of Congress, Republicans are wielding power much the same way they did in the Clinton era and for the six years afterward when they controlled the White House and Congress under George W. Bush: ineptly — ex. 1, 2, 3, etc.

RELATED:Jeb Bush broke Florida’s “Sunshine Laws” by deleting at least 300,000 emails.
Then as now, it’s clear that the only thing Republicans do very well is inflame the media with bogus scandals — which is a handy way to distract attention from their ineptitude. They are doing this with their usual aplomb, and considerable success, in the matter of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of a private server to send emails.

Clinton has said she deleted about 50,000 emails that dealt with personal matters, citing her daughter’s wedding and her mother’s funeral as examples. All the correspondence pertaining to official business was turned over to and archived by State. The deletion of the emails, though perfectly legal, has excited House Republicans, including Speaker John Boehner, who has announced plans to deploy House committees to investigate what might aptly be called Servergate.

LOL

[floriduck]
