Introduction to an Operatic aria to be sung by Huma Abedin
Ladies and gentlemen, knowing that many of you are fond of music, be pleased to learn that in just a few short hours we shall the pleasure of listening to Soprano Huma Abedin emote on travails experienced wandering through the quicksand in search of...oh, I forgot what she was searching for--but I do know on whose behest she was searching. As in a Wagnerian opera, which typically last far too long, Ms. Abedin will sing arias worthy of Der Meistersinger. Remember, that this presentation will serve as prelude to a command performance by Dame Hilllary, adapted for modern listeners in a tonality dominated by fifths (Arnold Schoenberg would be proud). But Dame Hilllary's musical selection will be from "Die Goetterdamerung".
I am fortunate to present portions of Ms. Abedin's libretto: emailgate number 6
Although, somewhat ungainly, this aria is illuminating:

To: Huma Abedin, Lauren Jiloty

Subject: Follow upDear Lauren and Huma—
I have just realized I have no idea how my papers are treated at State. Who manages both my personal and official files?
I am sending out material the way I did w Lauren in the Senate, but I don’t know what’s happening w it all. For instance, I’ve sent a few things to Cheryl but she says she hasn’t read them. Does Claire manage this or does it all go to Joe? Are there personal files as well as official ones set up? If I don’t write anything on paper – as I mostly don’t – Lauren knew how to file it all in the Senate. I’m sending out a mix which sometimes Claire and other times Lauren picks up from the out box. What happens then is a mystery to me!
So, I think we need to get on this asap to be sure we know and design the system we want. Let me know what you both think. Thx.

Subject: Re: Follow upWe’ve discussed this. I can explain it to you when I see u today.
Then, as accompanied by violins, Ms. Abedin will sing about intoxicating mixture of toil for two masters, both named Clinton:
The new emails also show new communications between Clinton Foundation advisers (including Douglas Band), Abedin, and Clinton about the Middle East, and a Haiti “donors” conference. The emails show that Clinton wanted to collect positive comments about her tenure to give to the press reporting on her first 100 days in office. The emails also show that Clinton tried to obtain a job at State for the son of former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
Then, for those who like fugues (the musical sort, not the psychiatric sort), an off-stage artist will sing the following text as Ms. Abedin continues her shill...trill.
The documents also include a previously released March 21, 2009, classified email document created by then-Clinton Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Strategic Communications and Senior Communications Advisor Phillipe Reines. Reines sent the email from his non-state.gov account with the subject line “Kharzai” to Clinton and Abedin. Reines writes “I think you know my close friend Jeremy Bash is now Panetta’s Chief of Staff at CIA.” The rest of the message is redacted under the National Security Act of 1947, which protects intelligence sources and methods from public disclosure.
“These new emails show Hillary Clinton was more than concerned about the handling of her records – both personal and official,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “What other damaging emails have Hillary Clinton and the Obama State Department withheld from the public?”
Well, opera lovers, so much for this brief teaser of what Tuesday's performance. Tune in again, as I shall publish selected portions of the libretto.

The clock is spinning faster. Anybody paying any attention knows exactly what her setup was. It is also clear that many at Dept of State were aware of the "special circumstances" for SoS Clinton. Someone higher-up the food chain must have been aware, too. And let it pass. Think about that.
Hey! my dear friends or soon-to-be's, JtC could use the donations to keep this site functioning for those of us who can still see the life preserver or flotsam in the water.
I, too, am sick of the theater with this

MEDIA
How can it be, none of this has been covered by Media? Seriously -it forces us to read places we'd never think of reading before. Learning it is the INFORMATION not the source which matters now.

Indictment seems like a fantasy. It's one fantasy I would love to see come to reality.
…but I'm not holding my breath.

So good to see you posting your fabulous graphic here. Thank you
Clinton's face
on the Rosie the Riveter coffee mug is pretty offensive. The only blisters she ever developed were from counting the money from her speeches and high end donors.
Anyone that who she knew. They could plainly see
the email address that she was sending her communications from. Everyone was covering for her.

Please just f'in charge her already
This Kabuki dance is getting old. Is there a single person in Washington that does not already know that Hillary violated scores of laws and exposed all types of classified info to anyone who cared to surf her server, and they all did.
Friends, it doesn't matter what she's done. All of D.C
knows it, many of her supporters know it. They simply do not care.
I do not hold out hope that Lynch will indict. The only outcome of a pre-convention Comey conviction is a Trump / GOP win.
We are in deep doo doo no matter what.
Don't believe everything you think.
yep. there is no rule of law at the moment.
our leaders are free to do as they please....openly take bribes and enrich themselves at our expense. wonder when we will have had enough?
There is nothing which I dread so much as a division of the republic into two great parties.. This...is to be dreaded as the greatest political evil under our Constitution.--John Adams
That may be the worst part: They know and they don't
care.
After decades of having Congress & the WH enact laws making the heretofore illegal, legal, these smug elitists know whatever they don't like will be covered up and expunged from memory. The in-group rules and there's no sign that they are misreading the situation.
"The justness of individual land right is not justifiable to those to whom the land by right of first claim collectively belonged"
What?
Wow totally disagree, the outcome of indicting her would be to save the Democratic Party by having Bernie as the candidate and he would bury Trump.
I mean with all the shit Trump has said if Hillary were a good candidate she would have a 20 pt lead, Bernie would
I used to be optimistic, too.
But like the author of a recent essay said, "I'm leaving and I'm taking the kids."
Life is short and getting shorter every day. I'm going to try and have a world to enjoy after I leave it. I'm going Green. To hell with the MFs.
Life is strong. I'm weak, but Life is strong.
Bernie would win or the Democratic Party would expose itself
If HRC is indicted before the convention, and Bernie is not the candidate, there would be Hell to pay. However, I imagine DWS and her ilk would honestly rather have Trump be elected than Bernie. The idea of a President that puts the interests of the people of this country ahead of the interests of Wall St. scares the Hell out of them. They can run against Trump, raise funds, pay their consultants, etc., but they would be completely undermined by a Bernie presidency.
That's exactly the premise of the below:

Sad state of affairs, our "democracy."
I followed the link in the story to the Inspector General's
Report and it notes over and over the various bulletins issued regarding email practices and discusses the restrictions on the use of a Blackberry and the requirements for saving and documenting government records, including e mails. It's very interesting and I will have to go back and read it again to fully understand some parts that I skimmed over.

Huma has many issues
I've cherry picked the wiki article about her. Do you think she influenced $hill to invade Syria at the behest of Saudi Arabia? She might have.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huma_Abedin
“Until justice rolls down like water and righteousness like a mighty stream.”
I wouldn't trust anything
I wouldn't trust anything coming from dunderheads like Gohmert and Bachmann. And if she is pro-KSA then she's no different than the average politician in the DC bubble. Whatever rosy tint her glasses may (or may not) have developed from living there as a child is most likely negligible in the scheme of things.
Of more concern to me is that she was allowed to work for the State Department and the private sector at the same time. Even if there was nothing nefarious intended in it, it's still inappropriate.
Wow, just f*cking wow!
How the hell she was able to work for the state department with this knowledge out there is mind boggling. I don't think she would have been able to get a security clearance with her family's resume and this has been my concerns about the email server.
How many people that read classified information have the proper security clearance to do so? If as many people have said that one reason for the private server was so that people from the Clinton foundation to also the email have security clearance to do so?
This goes directly to the Espionage act as does the emails that were classified after the fact. That is what sent Risen to jail. They classified some of the emails after the fact.
IF it was anyone but the Clintons, charges would have already been made.
But the fact that the republicans knew about Huma and did nothing is also mind boggling.
As someone wrote above, they knew that Hillary was breaking the rules, they just didn't care.
There were problems with running a campaign of Joy while committing a genocide? Who could have guessed?
Harris is unburdened of speaking going forward.
Unfortunately, those five GOP reps are looney-tunes
Or at the very least, 2 of the 5 are. I'm not very familiar with the others.
So I'm wondering if it's really true, and if whatever Muslim group they were connected to is REALLY an extremist group, or simply a Muslim group, which to Bachmann and her ilk is automatically extremist. I don't know if all Muslim Brotherhood groups are extremist (could be - I just don't know).
Don't get me wrong, I'm not sticking up for anything Abedin has done, I just don't know that I agree with being judged by family members one cannot control.
At least 3.
Bachmann, Gohmert & Franks.

The candidate of mainstream Republicans
The more support she garners from folks who are skilled in telling ethics and laws to f off, the less likely anything damaging will happen to her. The phenomenon of watching old line Republicans surround her while she maintains her Democratic support is appalling. It clearly demonstrates that the differences between the parties are just their logos and choice of social issues to give lip service to.
James Comey is not afraid to confront the WH when he thinks
laws are being broken. He took on Bush's Chief of Staff & attorney when Bush tried to push his domestic spying too far.

I don't think he is afraid of Obama. If DOJ tries to stonewall an indictment, folks in the FBI will go public.
Patience.

Isn't this insane? I posted on this last night and said that
that email sure made it obvious that her intent was to hide her communications

She's is nothing but a high-end grifter and a big time liar. She's is what Palin aspired to be (but could never come close).
