Now that James Comey of the FBI has established the ground rules for handling classified information – which is:

-Any government employee, including Hillary Clinton, can set up a private server even in her basement bathroom which Clinton did and was found guilty of being careless and mishandling classified information – cannot be held guilty because the FBI says so.

-Clinton’s computer tech team – even though they did not have the approval to handle classified information  – can do so – because the FBI says so.

-Your maid who does not have the approval to handle classified information and is a foreign national can fax and receive and be privy to classified information – because the FBI says so.

-Weiner and Huma Abedin – husband and wife’s joint computer which had Hillary’s classified information and email’s on it – again,  which included classified information, can store this classified information on their computer for safe-keeping to use as collateral in case they get caught in a web, can keep this classified information – because the FBI says so.

Now that we have set the ground rules, Obama must pardon all of the people who are in prison:

-for charging a young man with taking a photo on a submarine which parts were years old and is now in prison.

-for charging Petraeus with a crime when he gave permission to his lovely biographer who was sent to work with Petraeus by Obama,  who set him up –  and just like Adam and Eve – she tempted Petraeus with that damn apple – and all she did was have that notebook in her possession (just one little old notebook that had classified info).

Those are only a few of people who, by overzealous FBI, are now in prison.

Obama has pardoned 944 people in federal prison up to now.  Now isn’t it time to empty out the prisons with those people who have been involved with classified information –  if you are not going to charge Hillary Clinton?

Hillary Clinton on the Sanctity of Protecting Classified Information

By: Glenn Greenwald

August 12 2015

It turns out that at least two of the emails which traversed Hillary Clinton’s personal email account and server were “top secret,” according to the inspector general for the Intelligence Community as reported by McClatchy. To describe that as reckless is an understatement given that, as AP notes, “There is no evidence she used encryption to shield the emails or her personal server from foreign intelligence services or other potentially prying eyes.” The FBI has now taken possession of that server.

When it comes to low-level government employees with no power, the Obama administration has purposely prosecuted them as harshly as possible to the point of vindictiveness: It has notoriously prosecuted more individuals under the Espionage Act of 1917 for improperly handling classified information than all previous administrations combined.

NSA whistleblower Tom Drake, for instance, faced years in prison, and ultimately had his career destroyed, based on the Obama DOJ’s claims that he “mishandled” classified information (it included information that was not formally classified at the time but was retroactively decreed to be such). Less than two weeks ago, “a Naval reservist was convicted and sentenced for mishandling classified military materials” despite no “evidence he intended to distribute them.” Last year, a Naval officer was convicted of mishandling classified information also in the absence of any intent to distribute it.

In the light of these new Clinton revelations, the very same people who spent years justifying this obsessive assault are now scampering for reasons why a huge exception should be made for the Democratic Party front-runner. Fascinatingly, one of the most vocal defenders of this Obama DOJ record of persecution has been Hillary Clinton herself.

In December 2011, Chelsea Manning’s court-martial was set to begin. None of the documents at issue in that prosecution was “top secret,” unlike the documents found on Hillary Clinton’s server. Nonetheless, the then-secretary of state convened a press conference to denounce Manning and defend the prosecution. This is what she said:
If his case goes to trial and he is convicted, Manning could face life in prison. The government has said it would not seek the death penalty.

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton called Manning’s alleged actions damaging and unfortunate in remarks to reporters at the State Department on Thursday.

“I think that in an age where so much information is flying through cyberspace, we all have to be aware of the fact that some information which is sensitive, which does affect the security of individuals and relationships, deserves to be protected and we will continue to take necessary steps to do so,” Clinton said.

Manning was convicted and sentenced to 35 years in prison. At the time, the only thing Hillary Clinton had to say about that was to issue a sermon about how classified information “deserves to be protected and we will continue to take necessary steps to do so” because it “affect[s] the security of individuals and relationships.”

That was during the time that she had covertly installed a non-government server and was using it and a personal email account to receive classified and, apparently, even top-secret information. While there’s no evidence she herself placed those documents on the server or sent them herself, it is her use of a personal server and email account that — quite predictably — caused the vulnerability.

It goes without saying that the U.S. government wildly overclassifies almost everything it touches, even the most benign information. As former CIA and NSA Director Michael Hayden said in 2010, “Everything’s secret. I mean, I got an email saying ‘Merry Christmas.’ It carried a top secret NSA classification marking.”

For that reason, almost all of these prosecutions for mishandling classified information have been wildly overzealous, way out of proportion to any harm they caused or could have caused, certainly out of proportion to the actual wrongdoing.

But that’s an argument that Hillary Clinton never uttered in order to object as people’s lives and careers were destroyed and they were hauled off to prison. To the contrary, she more often than not defended it, using rationale that, as it turns out, condemned herself and her own behavior at least as much as those whose persecution she was defending.

So now that Clinton has escaped any charges at this time, Obama must empty out out all of the  people in prison – because from the FBI course of action with Hillary Clinton – the FBI must release all of the people in prison  who they claimed mishandled classified information – BECAUSE THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA SAYS SO..

KOMMONSENTSJANE – IS COMEY/LYNCH TRYING TO PULL A FAST ONE ON THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

Posted on October 30, 2016 by kommonsentsjane

Remember, Comey, FBI, told the American people the reason that they did not charge Hillary Clinton because they did not find INTENT. The law which covers Hillary Clinton and covers this TREASON – DOES NOT REQUIRE INTENT. Why did Comey lie? It seems that former Attorney General Michael Mukasey on MSNBC even called it to his attention.

WHO WILL HELP AMERICA HOLD HILLARY CLINTON ACCOUNTABLE?

Everyone should understand how unfit Hillary Clinton is to be the President of the United States. There is enough information on the market for people to be aware of the Clinton’s conduct and morality. Notice that law does not require intent. Wonder how many people are aware?

Word for word from the Cornell Law Library. This is referencing Hillary Rodham Clinton. Apparently the FBI forgot to visit the Cornell Law Library. Word for word from the Cornell Law Library Former United States Attorney General Michael Mukasey tells MSNBC that not only is Hillary Clinton’s private email server illegal, it “DISQUALIFIES” her from holding any federal office. Very specifically points to one federal law, Title 18, Section 2071. For those of us who do not have United States code code committed to memory, here’s what it says, “(a) Whoever willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, or destroys, or attempts to do so, or, with intent to do so takes and carries away any record, proceeding, map, book, paper, document, or other thing filed or deposited with any clerk or officer of any court of the United States, or in any public office or with any judicial or public officer of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.

(b) Whoever having the custody of any such record, proceeding, map, book, document, paper or other thing, willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, falsifies, or destroys the same shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both; and shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States. As used in this subsection, the term “office” does not include the office held by any person as a retired officer of the Armed Forces of the United States.”

Yes, it explicitly states “shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States,” Shouldn’t voters know that? The media won’t tell them. So it’s up to us. Can you help hold Hillary accountable?

Please pass this on. Everyone considering voting for Clinton had better look in the mirror and ask: Do I really want this woman as our president. Would I want this woman as a daughter-in-law? Do I really want to give my country over to the United Nations so they can tell us what we can and cannot do. To be able to control how our citizens are treated under their law?

Think, again, America. You will not get another chance to keep your freedom.
