For many, Hillary Clinton’s most recent scandal regarding the use of a non-government server for her personal email accounts while conducting highly sensitive and confidential government business may come as somewhat of a revelation in terms of the enormous publicity she has received given the potential consequences that may ensue from her actions, including but not limited to her being indicted on a criminal offense.
For some, especially the young and the innocent, Clinton may, in fact, be looked upon as a dignified matriarch – a crossover between a grande dame and the next coming of a political guardian angel for women in America. For many others, an elder coterie of more savvy political zealots, including some habitué political aficionados, like me, who have followed the woman’s path going back to her Wellesley College days circa 1969, our image of Clinton comes as quite a different variety, to wit, as our own modern-day version of Bonnie of the famed 1930s outlaws Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow, as does that of husband Bill, who also comes as a consummate match of Clyde in this, our contemporary rendition of semblances between both these two outlaw couples.
Hillary’s continued denials of any guilt in the use of personal email accounts on a non-government, privately maintained email server as well as her cynical and misanthropic demeanor when responding to media inquiries is, so that we are all clear in what to make of this her most recent three-ring political circus, is just that – one more time that our ad hoc outlaw figures to remain above the law of the land. Hillary and husband Bill have done it all throughout their political careers. The Clintons, are the quintessential ‘climbers’, the ultimate tufthunters, who have, since who knows how long, epitomized Consequentialism as commonly encapsulated in the English saying, “the end justify the means”.
As libelous as Hillary’s email scandal may appear, the truth is that, by now, scandals have in fact become second nature to the Clintons – from Whitewater, a real estate deal gone bad back in the 1970s and 1980s where the Clintons, had, allegedly, used their political clout to coerce an employee at Madison Guaranty Savings and Loans in Little Rock, Arkansas, into making an illegal loan to Clinton’s partners, Jim and Susan McDougal; to her sneering role in her husband Bill’s extra marital affair resulting in his impeachment by the U.S. House of Representatives in 1988; to her most recent email scandal, the fact of the matter is that the Clinton’s legacy is riddled with controversy, turmoil, and disquietude, including but not limited to even death, such as was the controversial demise of four Americans in the Libyan embassy at Benghazi as well as the mysterious death of Vince Foster in July 1993 - the deputy White House counsel during Bill Clinton’s presidency, previously associated to the presidential couple in the aforementioned Whitewater scandal. The Clintons have, in fact, left behind a trail of serious discredits amidst an eerie career in pursuit of political and economic prowess.
Just as true as all the scandals may have been, just as true is the fact that both Clintons have emerged from all of their mayhems with tidy cleanliness of any wrongdoings – a credit to the couples’ adroitness in breaking the law of the land, and the answer to Hillary’s hypocritical denials to the e-mail controversy. Equally, a sign of the times; a sign of the eminent corruption, venality, and malfeasance now prevalent in the most corrupt administration ever in the history of the nation.
There are, if you will, still many questions unanswered, both in terms of the email scandal, but moreover in terms of what is in store for our nation were this woman to become the next president of the United States of America. There are, if you will, countless other troubling and unsettled issues surrounding the Clinton email ignominy – all specially powerful if only because they become magnanimously relevant to the future wellbeing of all Americans, considering the fact that the woman is, of all things, a presidential hopeful, albeit with as good a chance as any of her rivaling adversaries of being elected to the post, thus an impending need for every American to demand that justice prevails in this the last of the Clinton scandals.
By every account now portrayed in most headlines news across our airwaves and soundbites around the nation, Ms. Clinton may have, in fact, violated several federal laws, including but not limited to Section 1924 of Title 18 of the U.S. Code, the Federal Records Act, and the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), among others, all of which have been reservedly enacted to protect classified and/or highly-sensitive government information from proliferating into a spurious world of adversary states. As it pertains to government affairs, the word ‘classified’ is just that, highly sensitive material requiring utmost confidentiality – one certainly off-boundaries for a private server used by anyone holding a post as high as a Secretary of State.
When government officials are entrusted with classified material, they are, in fact, being confided with ultimate trust for the security and protection of the homeland against the constant threats posed by all our enemies around the world heedfully wanting the demise of our great nation. Vis-à-vis a breach in all matters dealing with ‘classified’ material, may, just as soon compromise, and endanger our homeland’s safekeeping at levels beyond the comprehension of most laymen, thus the harsh penalties typically associated with a breach of these securities.
Clinton has repeatedly sought out to defend herself from her accusers by claiming she never dealt with classified information – a perversely feeble argument given the fact that in her role as Secretary of State, most, if not all, the information she had to deal with, would be considered classified. Interestingly enough, all the laws that she may have violated provide for fines, jail time and / or disqualification from holding any office in the government of the United States.
But questions still remain, what can we expect to be the outcome of all this scandal? How will the scandal affect Clinton’s presidential race, if at all? Will Hillary Clinton actually be criminally indicted for her role in the email scandal? These are, but just a few of the questions that every single American, republican or democrat, liberal or conservative, white or black, should be seeking to answer before the Democratic National Convention meets in Philadelphia on the week of July 25th, 2016, to nominate the party’s presidential and vice-presidential candidates.
If I may, permit me to give you my humble prediction on the answers to some of these crucial questions. Let me just preface my overall assessment of this scandal by predicting that nothing, absolutely nothing will happen. Day after day, I keep hearing how “the situation for Clinton is burgeoning for the worse,” We have heard how Congressional investigations led by House Select Committee on Benghazi Chairman, Trey Gowdy, are now being shared with other investigative bodies such as the FBI, whereas in recent weeks, the inspectors general for the State Department and the intelligence community have asked the Justice Department to open a criminal investigation into whether Clinton’s network received or sent classified emails. Even former Attorney General Michael Mukasey said this past week that Hillary Clinton is indeed the focus of a Justice Department probe, which could lead to her indictment on criminal charges dealing with breach of trust of our national security.
We have heard arguments re-asserting the chances that Clinton will, indeed, be indicted - arguments such as the ill-fated outcome of General David Petraeus, the once celebrated military leader and Director of the CIA, who was found guilty and sentenced to serve two years on probation and to pay a $100,000 fine for sharing classified information with his biographer and lover, Paula Broadwell.
My outlook on what will happen after all the smoke screens wane and the brouhaha settles down, is that -- again -- nothing, absolutely nothing will come of it. I base my foregone conclusion on the fact that our nation’s legal system is rotten from top to bottom. At such high political levels as those relative to this investigation, you can be certain that the ‘guilt’ or ‘innocence’ of Clinton will not, in fact, be decided on the merits of the case, per say, but more so on the economic prowess of the accused irrespective of the case-law. You can rest assured that, in the end, Clinton will be represented by a highly-paid team of legal eagles - a team which I guarantee you will be keen in finding the necessary loopholes to allow the ‘Teflon’ lady to, once again, emerge with her usual tidiness and go about her life as though nothing ever happened. All the while as the nation is precariously threatened on having another impostor guiding its destiny.
Clinton Foundation –the rats’ philanthropic enterprise and ultimate front for their own self-serving Ponzi enrichment scheme
For those of you who dare to challenge my assertion, just think of it this way, the Clintons have, historically, been able to stay above-the-law in virtually all of their mayhems. They have done so in spite of the fact that they were relatively impoverished, if judged by today’s standards, where the couple is said to be worth approximately $200 million dollars as the byproduct of their so-called Clinton Foundation –the rats’ philanthropic enterprise and ultimate front for their own self-serving Ponzi enrichment scheme.
In summary, I will not hesitate in cautioning all of our republican campaign strategists around the nation in getting their hopes too high, almost to the point of strategizing the republican’s presidential agenda for winning the 2016 elections on the illusive assumption that Lady Hillary will be out of contention exclusively based on the consequences that may ensue from the email scandal – a highly improbable, virtually impossible occurrence. I say, if it happens, great and wonderful, but please do not plan on it. I also say, regardless, every American should call upon their representatives in Congress to demand justice be served on this Clinton cheat.
Notwithstanding the aforementioned far-out chances that justice will, indeed, prevail, I say the challenge in making sure that said justice is served after all, still rests with every single one of us. It rests with each of us at our polling stations come November 2016. We do have a say so in making sure we stop Clinton dead in her tracks once and for all. We do have a say so in making sure that we reclaim our nation back from the impostors that that have besieged the values and fabrics gallantly willed to us by the founding fathers.
Unlike a host of other matters where you and I, and the electorate, have no say so whatsoever, this is the one time where we do have a say so on the outcome of this Clinton controversy, assuming, like I said earlier, that justice is not served by those whom we have entrusted to carry it out on our behalf. Thank God for the chance we will be given to oust this leftist socialist liar from our political landscape once and for all. She will not suffer, I assure you, from being ousted as she will revert back to her missionary philanthropic Foundation ready to, once again, enrich herself and her darling husband, as well as our nation will not suffer either, having been spared of a liberal agenda embedded in an Alinsky model, that all but promises to be more-of-the-same nihilism suffered under the fundamental transformation brought about by our hybrid Muslim president Barack Obama.
May God save us and may God save our country!
