    The Fix was in. Despite the sprawl of Justice Department inspector general Michael Horowitz’s 568-page report on the Clinton-emails investigation [https://www.justice.gov/file/1071991/download], there is precious little discussion of the most important issue: The Justice Department and FBI’s rationale for declining to prosecute Hillary Clinton.
    ~Snip~
    In explaining themselves to the IG, Obama Justice Department and FBI officials contended that the make-or-break issue in the case was whether they could prove mens rea — criminal state of mind. In this instance, that involved former secretary of state Clinton’s knowledge and intent regarding the unauthorized transmission and retention of classified information. Investigators say it dawned on them at a very early stage that they could not. Hence, they urge, their decisions to allow the election calendar to impose a time limit [https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/clinton-email-investigation-electoral-calendar-controlled/] on the investigation, to limit the amount of evidence they considered, to be less than aggressive in obtaining evidence, and to draft an exoneration of Clinton months before interviewing her (and other key witnesses), were entirely reasonable.
    Yet their analysis left out the best intent evidence, namely, Clinton’s willful setting up of a private, non-secure server system for all official business.
    ~Snip~
    A detailed description of the grossly improper communications system Clinton established would have illustrated that she knew full well the risk she was running. A large percentage of the secretary of state’s job involves classified matters. We are not talking merely about the exchange of documents marked classified but, more commonly, constant deliberations about sensitive intelligence in classified documents, briefings, and conversations. Clinton’s willful concoction of a home-brew communications network — not a harried official’s occasional, exigent use of private email for official business, but her rogue institution of a private, non-government infrastructure for the systematic conduct of State Department business — made the non-secure transmission and storage of classified information inevitable.

    I have never understood why Hillary was allowed to keep her security clearance when the existence of the private e-mail server became known.
    Mr. McCarthy's point on the reasonability of using a personal mail system for government business is right on point. There's almost nothing job related the Sec of State can be discussed on an unclassified email system, privately owned or not. To force the use of a privately owned system for national security matters virtually insures there will be some spillage. Operating the system outside the confines of the US Government creates a situation in which the spillage will not be recognized and corrected.
    There are so many facts showing the intent of Hillary Clinton. One favorite of mine that most clearly shows her extraordinary efforts to hide her misconduct is how the Brian Pagliano got his job setting up the server.
    Meanwhile, those who saying Mueller removed Strzok from his team once the I.G. gave him the heads-up last year means nothing. Mueller did not get rid of all others who were also overtly biased. So everything Mueller has done is tainted. It's all fruit of the poisonous tree. Everything.
