Fantastic news.....they now have Hillary with her own signature. Wherein she created a new title and position for her Chief Deputy Aide Abedin at the State Dept. While knowingly knowing Abedin was working for the Clinton Foundation and Teneo. Which incidentally is a company that the Clinton Foundation had a role in helping to establish itself. So what do you think is this a major conflict of interest for Hillary? Abedin is also in trouble for sending emails that were classified. Which has to do with Hillary's other email scandal. Now they have Hillary saying she was never involved with any of this. It appears this is a major lie. What say ye?





Hillary Rodham Clinton was directly involved in arranging a new government position for a top aide that allowed the aide to begin working for a private consulting firm while remaining at the State Department, according to documents released on Thursday. The documents, released by Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group, show that Mrs. Clinton personally signed forms establishing a new title and position for the aide, Huma Abedin, in March 2012. The forms were part of a broader process in which Ms. Abedin, then Mrs. Clinton’s deputy chief of staff, was transitioning to a role as a “special government employee,” which allowed her to collect salaries from the State Department, the Clinton Foundation and the private firm, Teneo, which was co-founded by a former aide to President Clinton.

Ms. Abedin’s multiple roles have come under scrutiny from the Senate Judiciary Committee and its chairman, Senator Charles Grassley of Iowa. Mr. Grassley is reviewing potential conflicts of interests between Mrs. Clinton and Teneo clients, who included a wide roster of companies and prominent business executives, some of them also donors to the Clinton Foundation. A spokesman for Mrs. Clinton declined to comment on the newly released document.

“Do you think he had a point in raising the question of whether it was appropriate for her to be taking a State Department salary and also be paid by an outside company closely associated with your husband and by you?” Ms. Mitchell asked. “Well, you know, I was not directly involved in that,” Mrs. Clinton replied. “But everything that she did was approved, under the rules, as they existed, by the State Department.” ....snip~

Now we know why the FBI doesn't want to share anything with the State Dept. I don't blame them at all, for that. As it is clear that the State Dept has been infected with all Hillary has brought.

The State Dept.....now needs to be purged of any. That's Any who have ties to Hillary, the Clinton Foundation and or Bill Clinton.

special govt employee is for technical skilled people -there a re maybe 200 in state. Abedin was clearly given that so there wouldn't be a "conflict" with being a Hillary aide.
She lies like a rug she wasn't involved with this...Democrats don't care. They put their hands over their ears and go "Nah nah nah"

The freaking sad part of this shows she is corrupt, as well as an arrogant shape-shifter .
Will voters hold her to accountability? I doubt it..she is still favored..such is American politics - dumb and dumber

Mornin AT. :2wave: She has sworn under penalty of Perjury her statements were true concerning the Emails. It appears they now have her for one count of Perjury. She didn't have anything to do with it, she said. Now her signature shows she not only was involved. She created the position for Abedin.

Its time for all citizens to start going after the FBI and jumping on them about doing their job. Reminding them.....they won't be allowed to give any free pass to Hillary at all.

They already know Clinton also lied about how many private Hillary.com accounts she had. Now they know both Abedin and Mills were using one. That's two counts of perjury. Papers should start to be made up. ASAP!

heh heh. Thanks for saving me the trouble. That was from the NYT but POLITICO and Washington Times also has it. I haven't seen it in WAPO yet.
Once the NYT grants permission for a story by publishing it, the floodgates should be opened.


"Mrs. Clinton personally signed forms establishing a new title and position for the aide, Huma Abedin, in March 2012."
“ 'Well, you know, I was not directly involved in that,' ” ... how cool is that.

Well, Hillary knew enough that she shouldn't leave her own fingerprints on the Clinton Foundation while she's at State so she let's Huma do it for her. At least there's that.

Mornin B. :2wave: It gets worse for Hillary to.....as they now know her Aides were sending Emails to her. The good news is.....Hillary was dumb enough to respond back. But at least Gowdy will be able to hook her up over 5 or 6 lies and the best part about that. Not one of those Democrats sitting behind Elijah Cummings can do anything to save her ass from being deposed.




Hillary Clinton Email Inquiry Weighs if Aides Erred at ‘Send’.....

The email described a deteriorating situation in Libya, with snipers shooting people in the streets as rebels tried to unseat President Muammar el-Qaddafi and worried American diplomats in the midst of a “phased checkout” from Benghazi. It arrived in the private email account of Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, one Sunday morning in April 2011, with unforeseen consequences.

That email, which included an update from the Africa Command of the Department of Defense detailing Libyan military movements, is part of the evidence that law enforcement officials say the F.B.I. is now examining as it tries to determine whether aides to Mrs. Clinton mishandled delicate national security information when they communicated with their boss.

The Libyan dispatch, written by an aide to Mrs. Clinton and then forwarded to her by Huma Abedin, one of her top advisers, should have been considered classified, according to intelligence officials. And, they say, other emails to Mrs. Clinton they have found, including one addressing North Korea’s nuclear weapons system and a third discussing United States drone strikes in Pakistan, should have been marked “Top Secret.”.....snip~

I'm not sure the FBI isn't as politicized as the Dept. of Justice, or anyone else in DC.

Yes; prima facie, she should be indicted ..will she?? I have serious doubts

It would be delicious karma if she got hung up over Libya - she was instrumental in deciding to depose Qaddafi..
And we all know Libya is a failed terrorist statte now because of it..

PS. have you seen my 'blog' as of late? it's interesting to scroll thru (pictures and all) :lol:

I don't think the FBI is as much, as the Dept of Justice is. Plus now with the breach of th OPM. 5 mil of Government people, Military, Intel, State, and Secret Service lives have all been put at great risk of harm.

The FBI has a job to do......and Hillary isn't the priority now!

Gowdy already has her with 6 lies just over what she has said about the emails and server. Now with anything else he can show a pattern. Also Gowdy did state that since more emails could come out. She will have to testify more than just this upcoming Oct.

That email they have showed Libyan troops movements and or was discussing where they were. Her marking excuse just became another excuse to deny the truth.
 
Abedin hasn't been cleared with this issue of ethics, and now they know she did send Hillary Top Secret Info. The FBI can go after Hillary's Aides and thru them to get to Hillary. As she did respond back to their emails.




Clinton aide delayed financial data sought by State Dep't......


After Hillary Rodham Clinton designated long-time aide Huma Abedin for a job as a special adviser working for her at the State Department in 2012, Abedin delayed providing personal financial information repeatedly sought by the department's ethics officials to determine if she had any potential conflicts of interest, newly-released emails show.

After previously working for three years as Clinton's deputy chief of staff, Abedin shifted from her full-time post to the consulting job for Clinton in June 2012. But the emails show Abedin's approval for the special adviser job was pushed through even as State Department ethics, personnel and legal officials warned that she had failed to provide financial data necessary to rule out any potential conflicts.

State Department officials were seeking information about Abedin's finances including assets owned by her husband, former Rep. Anthony Weiner. Even on the day of her hiring, a State Department legal official told Abedin that she had still not provided necessary information on a government ethics form requiring her to disclose any outside agreements or transactions.....snip~

you are about to be sorely disappointed in gowdy
he is an incompetent who could not figure out how to pour piss out of boot
realize that gowdy has already agreed to only one (long) day with hillary
he shot his wad. can't expect a second day of her testimony - no matter what he pretends to believe

here is the background on the ethical obligations of SGEs ... not much in the way of restrictions:

Mornin JB. :2wave: Yes he did agree and then when more emails came out over Libya and Benghazi he clearly stated she can only testify once. If he has the whole record.

Now they just found some more emails over Libya. They know they don't have the whole record. So she will be forced to testify more than once. Also over her emails and server, with anything over Libya.

I don't know...for some reason she has to agree to testify

Well AT.....she can always take the 5th. There is no reason to treat her with respect anymore. No need for powder puff gloves. As clearly she thinks she can disrespect the entire nation, and get away with it. Like I said.....she thinks she can. Now some others are about done with this and will apply pressure where it hurts. It was good to see Fournier slam her and then tell her.....time to come clean, and not with a cloth.

Its time for people to start treating her like she deserves. But more importantly.....all those on her Team out trying to protect her. These are the people that we want to go after and destroy their very livelihoods. Running them out of government forever!

true. but i'm looking at this s politics too.
afterall I wouldn't care that much if this incompetent, arrogant, dissembling wench wasn't on a track for POTUS..

And you know how quickly the press would turn to her side, being persecuted by those mean ole Republicans..
So in essence it comes down to that testimony, to damage her.

I doubt she's going to be prosecuted -the classified data laws have wiggle room,and wiggle she will.
But I have faith that Gowdy ( if anybody) can nail her on some lies.

Will it keep her from the nomination? Not by itself. The Democrats don't care enough to toss her.

So all this means she needs to be politically wounded , and the Repubs need to nominate somebody who can beat her.
Her damage to Libya and Syria is done, I just don't want to give her any more chances to screw things up.

Well like I mentioned. Gowdy has her in several lies. Which when questioning her. He will have to be real direct and point out each time she lied. Then showing the fact that she did. That's what it was.....a lie. Then some comments about lying should be preached to her.

Still more and more are discovering she is totally dishonest and corrupt. Definitely unethical and will always be so. No matter where she is.
 
Hi all! This is indeed good news. Looks like they finally got the little witch, now in addition to the conspiracy and obstruction of justice we have to concrete counts of perjury, and all of the above qualify as High Crimes and Misdemeanors.

I can't say I'm going to be sorry when Hillary goes to jail.

Well good - now this part's done, now we can start working on Jeb Bush. lol ;)

Why not finish the job Ballantine. The Demos are down to 7 states where they control the state. They only have 14 with partial control and not any majority. They are as weak as they were going back to the civil war.

Why allow them to continue on? We already know their way of life is thru division of the country and leeching off others and never paying their bills nor keeping their word. Not to mention they aren't exactly good at playing with the big boys overseas.

Lets put an end to them. Force them to divide up and stand on their own. New Name.....new facelift.
