Clinton is in trouble. Or more accurately put, she should be in trouble
— very big trouble, in fact. The latest from the Department of Justice
is that, yes, they have seized Hillary Clinton’s private e-mail server
and an accompanying thumb drive.
The FBI has reportedly confiscated
copies of the same e-mails from Hillary’s lawyer because it deemed the
information contained in them too sensitive for him to keep. While
attempting to defend the indefensible, a Clinton spokesman said that
this merely shows that the former secretary of state is cooperating
with a “security inquiry.”
That pathetic spin was meant to prevent the
American people from recognizing there is not just smoke but fire to
the Hillary e-mail scandal. Too late. Already, the flames are visible.
The most damning revelation about Hillary’s e-mails from the last 24
hours is not the details of the investigation into her homebrew server.
What’s making headlines across the political spectrum is that some of
the material she sent via her personal server was so sensitive that it
was designated “Top Secret.”
This is a jaw-slaps-the-table moment. Even
for those of us who hold a very low opinion of Mrs. Clinton’s
character, integrity, and judgment, this is a graver offense than many
had contemplated. Merely the storage of “Top Secret” e-mails – never
mind their dissemination over open channels to some individuals likely
not cleared to read them — is a federal felony. On top of that, it is
unthinkable that Hillary could have sent such sensitive information and
not known at the time that it was sensitive.
