Not for nothing...but do you guys ever wonder about your scandal meter? What you consider evidence?
Do you ever apply it in a non-partisan way?
Yes, THAT's the Amazon page of book Hillary requested. Thanks for posting.
I wonder if Hillary posted a review for it.
She had to borrow it.... that's when her and Bill were so, so poor.... living in their hovel.
Yah...Maybe she even has a library card? Now that would be a Scandal!!

Nah, it should be ludicrous that anyone would believe and/or vote for this very wealthy woman that tried to purvey the notion that her and her former POTUS husband were poor after they left the White House.
Yet there they are out there... ready to put 'a woman in the White House'.

Migrating is different than removing and destroying hard drives, and replacing them with new blank hard drives.
The servers were BLANK, not MIGRATED.
Platte River Networks has retained control of the old server since it took over management of the Clintons’ e-mail system. She said that the old server “was blank,” and no longer contained useful data.
“The information had been migrated over to a different server for purposes of transition,” from the old system to one run by Platte River, she said, recalling the transfer that occurred in June 2013.
In addition to obtaining the old server, the FBI recently obtained a thumb drive in the possession of Clinton’s lawyer, David Kendall, that contained copies of work e-mails kept on the server.

aaahh...Ok...gave you a star for that.
Still...Ok to "hate" the woman...but let's sort out the reality and facts of what we know and don't know and not muddy waters with half-truths and headlines absent relevant facts. You can always hate her after you get a better view of the situation.
The Internet company used by Hillary Clinton to maintain her private server was sued for stealing dozens of phone lines including some which were used by the White House.
Platte River Networks is said to have illegally accessed the master database for all US phone numbers.
It also seized 390 lines in a move that created chaos across the US government.
Among the phone numbers which the company took - which all suddenly stopped working - were lines for White House military support desks, the Department of Defense and the Department of Energy, a lawsuit claims.

Now I *really* smell espionage and treason !!!
She was the top officer of the State Department. You speak about this as if she was somehow tangentially attached to it. It's a pretty sure bet she can have something to say about what needs to be classified.

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned yet - I am catching up on a few pages - BUT, email Hillary, she herself created, could post-facto be considered classified, yet weren't at the time of sending, but are now considered that due to their content.
Short story on the facts here..
According to the inspector general the emails contained "information" "derived" from classified information or docs at the time they "originated".
That means the information was classified by another agency at the time it was emailed to Hillary. We don't know when it was classified.
The State Department is responsible for classifying their own material.
According to the State Department, the "information" had been circulated on non-classified servers and email systems at State since 2009.
So it's possible it wasn't classified when it was first circulated at State...but was classified before it was emailed to Hillary..but State never classified it. Example: 2009 CIA shares unclassified Satellite data with State. State references the info in emails amongst themselves...maybe in 2011 the CIA tags the info as Classified...but State (who is responsible for classifying their own info) never follows suit and the info. continues to circulate and lands on Hillary's server in 2012.
The Inspector General did not file this as a criminal inquiry, but rather a security "heads-up" as he is obligated to do.
This was an email sent to Hillary Clinton.
So what we likely have is some State Department employee who shared the information without concern for it's classified origins or it wasn't classified at the time back in 2009 or earlier...and the information became semi-common knowledge and was not considered classified going forward as State Department employees shared it and it eventually got mentioned in an email to Hillary.
If it is satellite data from 09 or prior, it might be hard to discern whether anyone at State should have recognized it as potentially classified. I would suspect it appears innocuous since it was "circulated" without concern on non-secure servers for 6 years or more without being recognized as potentially classified.
So if their is a sacrificial lamb to be offered to the witch hunt it will be someone in NSA or CIA that shared the info with State in 09 or earlier without the classified label..or the employee at State who first shared the data disregarding a classified label.
When Hillary claimed she has not communicated classified material on her personal server (sent or received) she is technically correct...because State is responsible for classifying all of their own material and communications and this was not classified by State.
This is the same reason the IG referred the material to the State department last week....for classification.
Notice none of that is in defense of Clinton, nor asking for her to be burned at the stake...so everyone save the ideological drama...that is just what we have thus far.
Now back to..."drown her! She's a witch!!!"

None of this would be an issue if she didn't choose to use her own server - for what reason is anyone's guess, though it's a pretty good bet she wanted to have total control over who saw what - but she did use her own server and put sensitive info at risk and apparently, at the very least, broke protocol by doing so. Maybe even broke the law by doing so if it's found she sent or asked to receive correspondence on a non-sanctioned device.
And?

No one with power likes transparency, that's why she wanted her own server. As far as protocol goes, it was legal at the time and there was even a precedent, Colin Powell for example had one. So far there haven't been any criminal charges, only security leaks as a function of the office.
For criminal charges to be filed it will had to have been something she personally did outside the scope of the office taking actions, and even then as I've said before she will not pay a single dollar in restitution and she will not spend a single hour in jail. Those who run the government are intelligent enough to know the precedent that will be set if we seriously go after members of opposing political parties. If Hillary goes down, Cheney and Bush will go down, then Pelosi will go down, and before long we're going to be in a full blown Civil War along partisan lines.
Intelligence community wants Clinton’s security clearance suspended
Security experts say that if Hillary Rodham Clinton retained her government security clearance when she left the State Department, as is normal practice, it should be suspended now that it is known her unprotected private email server contained top secret material.
“Standard procedure is that when there is evidence of a security breach, the clearance of the individual is suspended in many, but not all, cases,” said retired Army Lt. Gen. William Boykin, who was deputy undersecretary of defense for intelligence in the George W. Bush administration. “This rises to the level of requiring a suspension.”
