“State Department officials have uncovered 17,855 emails sent between a former Hillary Clinton spokesman and reporters that the agency long claimed did not exist.
The trove was among more than 80,000 emails belonging to Philippe Reines, a Clinton aide, that were discovered on his State Department account, officials said in court filings Aug. 13.
In response to a Freedom of Information Act request filed by Gawker Media in 2013, the State Department said it had no responsive records. Gawker was seeking official correspondence between Reines and reporters from 33 news outlets.
But State officials responded Thursday with the news that they had inexplicably found 81,159 emails on Reines’ “.gov” email account despite asserting two years ago that none existed. Twenty-two percent, or 17,855, of the emails were likely related to Gawker’s request.” –Sarah Westwood

Is the Fix in?
H. Clinton is openly suspected of a FEDERAL CRIME but she’s routinely feted by the Left Media (or do I repeat myself) as “The Front-Runner” ™.
IF (and I mean, big IF) Trump stays in the race. IF he wins the Repub nomination despite (John Derbyshire’s term) Conservative, Inc.’s full court press to block him in favor of !Jeb! (their anointed Establishmentarian), I predict H. Clinton will be “protected” by the Left-Establishment and “win” the Demo nomination.
A Trump vs H. Clinton race would depend entirely upon what the markets do in the next 14 months. If they fall apart and bottom in the June-Aug time frame, Trump might win such a contest.
If H. Clinton wins the presidency, I forecast that she will be the last of her party elected to national office. I strongly suspect that if the next POTUS is from the Establishment, he or she will spell the utter doom of the party from which they are drawn.
The epic size of the economic cataclysm headed our way is exactly the sort of thing that ends political parties for all time. I personally think both the current Establishment parties are headed for historical ignominy…and soon.
PS: I am nauseated by all politicians, but H. Clinton is the Mother of All Nausea in that regard. I believe political assassination is always a very bad idea, and believe that the worse the politician, the worse it is to assassinate them….in her case, I surely wish they’d get her on the lying, the criminal “foundation” (which is overt tax evasion and influence-peddling as bad as any South American despotism) and the email crimes so I didn’t have to see her demonic visage everywhere.

I have to agree, there is still plenty of time to explain away this crime and bury the rest so the faithful FSA dems vote hilary anyway.
When it comes time for nomination do we really think the dem party will forsake their only woman and best chance at the presidency? Biden? Really? Weird Uncle Joe hasn’t a chance.
And when it’s time to cast the vote do we really think the free shitters will give a damn about past crimes as long as the free shit continues?
hilary vs jeb and right now I would wager on jeb, but come election time hilary will be the teflon queen. As much as I love the turmoil Trump is causing, I think the media will treat him just like Ron Paul.

The Clinton’s have always maintained their corrupt positions by stomping those few who expose them for what they do into public oblivion.
This time they will try the same thing since what has been successful is what gets repeated, but this time the sources exposing them aren’t individuals that can be stomped down, they’re agencies.

Stucky, you are undoubtedly wise on this score.
It’s pretty much an open secret that LBJ had had at least (?) nine people murdered in TX for political purposes while governor (which is why Nixon pretty much told one of his advisers that if you wanted to know who benefited the most from, and orchestrated the cover-up of the JFK assassination, look to who controlled Texas.)
The Clintons have a string of bodies in their wake, people who have died of “unusual causes” and under “odd circumstances.”
And as Card says, the FSA only cares about Gibsmedats, not how they obtain them, and the Left only cares about naked power, so showering Gibsmedats on the FSA as a payoff for votes is second nature.
