The Utter Stupidity of Hillary Clinton

 

Thanks go to Peggy for this article:

Did Hillary’s emails on her home server contribute to the Iran negotiations?HillaryClinton44

“As a former member of the intelligence community I felt a deep shadow fall over me as I read about Hillary Clinton’s use of an outside email service instead of the more secure and private State Department system. She did this for obvious reasons, to keep her communications out of official channels and away from the prying eyes of her political enemies (the Republicans…). One might sympathize with a politician in her situation.

However, the Secretary of State of the United States of America is the number two intelligence target IN THE WORLD, behind only her boss, the President. To tap into her communications guarantees lavish rewards and promotions to the intelligence team who does it. All eyes are on her, like vultures, waiting. Yes, it really works this way.

An email system such as the one described is considered “easy pickings.” After seeing the details in the press, my first conclusion is this:

Russians and the Chinese were reading her emails. In real time.

I’m not saying maybe or perhaps. They were.

The Russians and Chinese have sophisticated intelligence services, with sophisticated spotting, assessing, targeting capabilities. They have thousands of people who work these issues. Ms. Clinton may say that she didn’t talk about classified matters, and she may think this is correct. But any intelligence professional knows it’s impossible to “talk around” a topic effectively (despite what you might see in spy movies…). With a high value target like Ms. Clinton, an intel service will have teams of analysts and psychologists analyzing every word she says, with absolutely clear context.

It is also likely the French, the Germans and a host of other sophisticated services were tapping in. There will be no trace of their reading it, no logs, no records. This is an easy lift.

On the “perhaps” list, the Mexicans, the Iranians, the Narco Cartels, and the more sophisticated backers of Al Quaida, along with various computer-savvy nuts from around the country and around the world. Who else was getting it? Anyone the Chinese or the Russians thought should get it!

Let’s talk about information. Back in the day, I was told if you have a good source but no particular requirements from your reports officer you ask about “Plans and Intentions.” We are talking about plans and intentions of the U.S. government, negotiating positions, possible movement of resources that reveal policy decisions, actions that if known could be circumvented or countered.

We don’t know the content of these emails, and of course a major part of those have been deleted so we may never know. We have to assume the worst, so let’s ask some questions:

  • Did Putin know what our reaction would be before he invaded the Ukraine?
  • Did Al Quaida know our intentions in Benghazi before the attack?
  • Did Iran know our proposals before we started negotiating this latest agreement?
  • How about any trade or political agreement where Russia or China might have an interest?

Compromised? How much money, positioning power, or benefit did the American people lose because the opposite side new exactly how far to push? These are potentially trillion dollar issues.

I wrote recently about a failure of Ms. Clinton’s leadership during the Benghazi attack. But this reveals a major failure in her understanding of simple security procedures, to the devastating loss of her country. It always seemed to me that President Obama has always gotten his clock cleaned in international negotiations. Could it be because his Secretary of State was compromised?”

    The emails are one thing, and the garnering of fund$ for the Clinton Foundation while Sec State is another.

    And one must not forget Shrillary’s complicity in the big “Blame the Video” lie regarding her Benghazi BooBoo.

  2. Peggy says:

    Big oops. Shrillary’s emails keep dripping out. Wonder where they’re coming from.

    See the Email Hillary Sent in Response to a Drone Crash That Even Had Her Top Aide Confused:

    “Using her personal email address, Hillary Clinton responded to a message informing her of a drone crash in Pakistan with a question about furniture.

    A batch of Clinton’s emails obtained by the Associated Press while she was secretary of state included an exchange between Clinton and top aide Huma Abedin, who had emailed her a news story about a U.S. drone crash in Pakistan.

    Clinton replied: “I like the idea of these. How high are they? What would the bench be made of? And I’d prefer two shelves or attractive boxes/baskets/conmtainers [sic] on one. What do you think?”

    Abedin responded, “Did u mean to send to me?”

    “No-sorry!” Clinton replied. “Also, pls let me know if you got a reply from my ipad. I’m not sure replies go thru.”

    The evidence against Hillary keep piling up.

    DiGenova on Hillary’s Emails: ‘If There Isn’t a Department of Justice Preliminary Inquiry, It’s a Disgrace’:

    “(CNSNews.com) – Former U.S. Attorney Joseph diGenova said Tuesday that if former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s “permanently deleted” emails, “she committed a crime.”

    “The evidence on the record at this point makes it very clear that impending proceedings she took it upon herself, used her staff, and apparently with the advice of counsel Cheryl Mills, destroyed evidence,” said diGenova at Judicial Watch’s discussion on Clinton’s email practices in Washington, D.C.

    “Nobody knows whether what she had was evidence until somebody looks at it. If she’s right and everything that she had that’s personal–and I’ll bet you the Clinton Foundation is considered personal–has been permanently deleted, she committed a crime–absolutely unequivocally committed a crime, and if there isn’t a Department of Justice preliminary inquiry, it’s a disgrace,” he said.

    “The bottom line is simple,” said diGenova. “She destroyed history. She destroyed history with no supervision, with no accountability, with no transparency. She had no right to do that, and there should be a federal criminal investigation going on right now at the Department of Justice.”

    DiGenova also suspects that the scandal was a design of the State Department at the beginning of Clinton’s tenure as secretary.

    “It was a deliberate plan, legal strategy from the beginning of her tenure as Secretary of State,” said diGenova. “What if in fact the Department of State from day one was the one that put the server in Chappaqua? And I think they did, that they had known about this before they had ever told anybody about it. I believe that, and I believe that to be the case, but I don’t know it yet.

    “Mrs. Clinton started her removal of documents at the inception of her secretariat. She began with a purposeful action to conceal and eventually – according to her and her lawyer – delete information which is presumptively public record,” diGenova stated.”

    J. Soden:

    To clarify your confusion, Hilary did not ever “blame” the video. She claimed that the terrorists who attacked Benghazi were motivated by the video. This is a fact; the terrorists who attacked Benghazi explicitly said that they were motivated by the video.

    http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/18/world/middleeast/apprehension-of-ahmed-abu-khattala-may-begin-to-answer-questions-on-assault.html?hp&_r=2

    Every person who is honestly concerned with the truth of what happened that night knows this by now. The problem is that Tea Party conservatives are not interested in an honest, sober look at the facts. Not in this case, and not in many others. They are only interested in using Benghazi as a hammer to bash Obama, Clinton, and the Democratic Party as a whole.

    If the Democrats are as bad as you say they are, you shouldn’t need to make things up. The Obama administration has lied about many things. It’s possible they lied about certain things that happened in Benghazi. But they did NOT lie about the terrorists being motivated by the video, because the terrorists were motivated by the video. Period.

    From the article:

    “Russians and the Chinese were reading her emails. In real time.
    I’m not saying maybe or perhaps. They were.”

    So a guy writes an article where the central claim is a completely unfounded accusation based on nothing, and passes it off as fact. He the publishes it on a birther site, and it gets shared by other conservative sites despite no evidence for the claim.

    In more rational times, this would be unusual. Unfortunately it is SOP in the right-wing blogosphere.

    LOL I am not going to campaign for Hilliary or jeb.

    That being said, using a server designed for President Clinton? nothing is safe but that was safer then the State department servers.

    Have an opinion but following the lame GOP campaign playbook show?…Boring and unsubstantiated. Speculation- armchair campaigning.

    Why is there no problem on everyone else who did the same? or the missing emails form the Bush Brothers?

    trust me we want not a single candidate they are forcing on us.

    Living in the Right wing bubble is dangerous. Fact can not be distinguished from fiction.

    Why play the game? We only loose every election together.

    Who’s your candidate? Jeb? Another Bush?

    No Bush/ No Clinton 2016
