8)Emailgate: A Disaster for U.S. Security

In a staggering violation of federal security policies, Hillary Clinton, in her role as Secretary of State, used a private and unencrypted email server for her personal and official emails. During this time, Hillary traveled abroad, visiting and communicating from China, Egypt, Israel, Japan, and South Korea. Multiple experts in the U.S. intelligence community verified that this practice virtually granted unfettered access to Clinton’s communications.

Former National Security Agency counterintelligence officer, John Schindler was clear on this topic:

“The name Clinton right on the email handle meant this was not a difficult find.”

J. Michael Waller, a security consultant for the U.S. Senate and the U.S. Marine Corps Warfighting Laboratory added,

“This is the national-security equivalent of drunken driving. She should go to prison for this. When you drink and drive, you know in advance that you’re putting other people in danger, Yet, you think  because you’re so smart or so clever or just don’t care, that nothing’s going to happen and then something does, so it’s your fault. This is precisely what she did on the national security sphere.”

When Hillary’s private email server scandal broke, she had a curious response, totally devoid of remorse. Compelled by a State Department investigation to turn over the emails concealed from them on her private server, so experts could determine the extent of her offense and the breadth of her breach of security, Clinton turned over about 55,000 emails, but not 30,000 other emails, which she asserted she had deleted, as they were ‘personal’.

The consequences for Hillary of this knowing breach of government security was some mild political and public censure. The incident was quickly forgotten and swept under the rug.

Another exceptional Hillary scandal concealed and downplayed by her political and media cronies and forgotten by the public is up next:
