Fair enough. She may very well have thought herself above the policy and/or believed that her system was secure enough that it didn't apply.

Now you're cooking with gas. Yes, if it is proven that she materially and deliberately failed to honor a request for information then that's a big ol no-no. With her data dump of 55k email we'll see what they find. For example, if they find email threads where substantial policy decisions were made that should have…

I'll grant you it may take some time for them to find something that sticks but I'm not going to hold my breath.

It's not concealed. She never made a secret of using the clintonemail address (it's right there in the to: line). To the best of our knowledge she has never denied a FOIA request or otherwise inhibited access from the archivist or any other government official. Also as the recipient "public officer" are you…

That statute doesn't say what you think it says either. You say that "her emails systems do not pass muster with the National Archives" yet no where in that statute does it say that's a requirement — only that the head of the agency will make sure that they have a policy in place for retaining records and cooperate…

Pretty sure that doesn't apply here. This would apply if I were to go to a courthouse or the National archives and spirit away the official copy of a signed law etc.

Name one of the laws that predate the 2014 law. Not saying there isn't one, but I find it hard to believe that if there is one that no one in the Republican establishment hasn't trotted it out to argue for an indictment.

I seriously doubt what she did violated FISMA. FISMA was simply a mandate to government agencies to come up with a framework to assess and manage risk. It left the nuts and bolts of that management to the agencies and one could certainly argue that in the 6 years between the enactment of FISMA and Hillary's…

President Obama signed the The Presidential and Federal Records Act Amendments of 2014 into law on Nov 26, 2014 (Hillary left in Feb 2013). And even that statute only made it illegal to conduct business on a personal email address WITHOUT copying an official account OR forwarding such correspondence within 20 days. …

Hillary left State in February 2013. President Obama signed HR 1233 The Presidential and Federal Records Act Amendments of 2014 into law on Nov 26, 2014 which states

As has been shown repeatedly, by numerous news outlets over the last week she did NOT BREAK THE LAW. The policies restricting the use of personal email/device were enacted AFTER she left State. You are free to argue the wisdom of such policies that allowed her to use a personal email server, but there has been no…

Guess what? Her job DIDN'T require it. Whether you agree with her politics or the policy from almost a decade ago at the State Department, by all accounts she appears to have played by the rules that governed her time at State.

Not saying she didn't, but source?

Is it just me or are baseball players the new professional bowlers in terms of hairstyles / general appearance? I realize that these are the "awkward" photos but without a doubt that is the homeliest group of professional athletes I've ever seen.

Thank you! I was wondering how it went unremarked that he was clearly holding doogan just out of frame in that picture.

You seem well-adjusted and not at all emotionally stunted. Your logic is sound. All these nimrods blathering on about not supporting their team via the confiscatory power of the state are just pussies who don't understand what it means to support their teams.

Should have seen that coming.

Very, very little of it? "Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them" was just published in the year or two before he ran for office and before that he had become known PRIMARILY for his unabashedly leftish political statements and positions. While it might be true in reference to his entire oeuvre, that "very, very…

"When I was in high school, I would read the purple and red sections of USA Today..."

you did read the part where this wasn't required for ALL developments, right? Only if you as a developer want to build something over a certain size AND are asking for tax breaks or other incentives is the city now suggesting that perhaps instead of just taking your word for it that you'll deliver the jobs, economic…
