The Clinton's are one of the most corrupt families to ever serve in politics. Brother Joe is probably regretting his decision not to enter the race, as it looks to me like Bernie may end up being the guy. Then again it could be as LG has stated, just horrible judgement on Hillary's part.

The failure to safeguard state secrets is an area of the law in which the federal government has been aggressive to the point of being merciless. State secrets are the product of members of the intelligence community’s risking their lives to obtain information.

Before she was entrusted with any state secrets — indeed, on her first full day as secretary of state — Clinton received instruction from FBI agents on how to safeguard them; and she signed an oath swearing to comply with the laws commanding the safekeeping of these secrets. She was warned that the failure to safeguard secrets — known as espionage — would most likely result in aggressive prosecution.

In the cases of others, those threats have been carried out. The Obama Department of Justice prosecuted a young sailor for espionage for sending a selfie to his girlfriend, because in the background of the photo was a view of a sonar screen on a submarine. It prosecuted a heroic Marine for espionage for warning his superiors of the presence of an al-Qaida operative in police garb inside an American encampment in Afghanistan, because he used a Gmail account to send the warning.

It also prosecuted Gen. David Petraeus for espionage for keeping secret and top-secret documents in an unlocked drawer in his desk inside his guarded home. It alleged that he shared those secrets with a friend who also had a security clearance, but it dropped those charges.

The evidence of Clinton’s negligence is overwhelming. The FBI now has more than 1,300 protected emails that she received on her insecure server and sent to others — some to their insecure servers. These emails contained confidential, secret or top-secret information, the negligent exposure of which is a criminal act.

One of the top-secret emails she received and forwarded contained a photo taken from an American satellite of the North Korean nuclear facility that detonated a device just last week. Because Clinton failed to safeguard that email, she exposed to hackers and thus to the North Koreans the time, place and manner of American surveillance of them. This type of data is in the highest category of protected secrets.

Last weekend, the State Department released two smoking guns — each an email from Clinton to a State Department subordinate. One instructed a subordinate who was having difficulty getting a document to Clinton that she had not seen by using a secure State Department fax machine to use an insecure fax machine. The other instructed another subordinate to remove the “confidential” or “secret” designation from a document Clinton had not seen before sending it to her. These two emails show a pattern of behavior utterly heedless of the profound responsibilities of the secretary of state, repugnant to her sworn agreement to safeguard state secrets, and criminal at their essence.

There are now more than 100 FBI agents investigating Hillary Clinton. Her denial that she is at the core of their work is political claptrap with no connection to reality. It is inconceivable that the FBI would send such vast resources in the present dangerous era on a wild-goose chase.

It is the consensus of many of us who monitor government behavior that the FBI will recommend indictment. That recommendation will go to Attorney General Loretta Lynch, who, given Clinton’s former status in the government and current status in the Democratic Party, will no doubt consult the White House.

That's a really objective, nonpartisan analysis, from an impeccable source with no agenda at all.

Thanks for posting.

Even without the partisan slant of the article, even you should know by now the evidence of misbehavior is pretty overwhelming. And whether intentional or not, "I didn't know the law" is a pretty underwhelming defense in the courtroom. People have been prosecuted and sent to jail for less.

For the life of me I can't understand how you can swear to uphold the law, yet ignore the Mount Everest sized elephant in the room in this case.

Other than being a negative report on your fantasy dream girl, which part of the article do you have a problem with? jmo but it's kind of hard to disagree with the facts presented, counselor.

When has a lawyer ever swore to uphold the law?

he doesn't read it, he just sees that it says something negative about Hillary and goes into attack mode

Hillary could write an Op-ed piece criticizing herself and he'd probably still attack the writer.

Are the Hillary supporters at all concerned about their candidate's health? Hillary has had some very Serious health problems, and her Health remains a major concern for her doctors and her staff.

I found the lamest ad of the cycle so far. Jeb's donors have to be fuming that their money is being spent on this amateur garbage.

I guess Jeb is going under the mentality that if he can't win, he might as well take down others in the process.

I guess it makes sense from his perspective. Rubio overstepped his bounds after Jeb helped launch his political career. This was supposed to be his year and nothing is working out.

Jeb is the reason Jeb is not working out. He is a very dull terrible candidate.

It just doesn't make sense to go after Rubio. He's not polling high enough to be a significant threat and it makes Jeb look petty. It's like Huckabee going after Rick Santorum.

Maybe Jeb likes tossing his money away.
