Federal judge tosses suit, says FBI did all it could on Clinton emails
« on: November 10, 2017, 12:08:12 am »
 By Alex Swoyer - The Washington Times - Thursday, November 9, 2017

A federal judge tossed a lawsuit Thursday that would have pushed the State Department and FBI to do more to try to track down Hillary Clinton’s emails, ruling the government has done all it reasonably could to locate the former secretary of state’s messages.

Two watchdog groups, Judicial Watch and Cause of Action, had sued in 2015 demanding the government recover all of Mrs. Clinton’s emails, saying she violated open-records laws by not preserving her messages.

U.S. District Judge James E. Boasberg, though, said the FBI did what it could, and did manage to recover thousands of messages Mrs. Clinton didn’t return herself.

Is this a ruling or is he buying life insurance?

Silly me. I thought the failure to archive (and wanton destruction of) communications between the Secretary of State and most anyone was a crime.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

On August 22, 2016, Boasberg ordered the release of over 14,000 emails found in the United States Department of State correspondence of Hillary Clinton by the FBI during an investigation of Clinton's private server.[19] These emails were requested by Judicial Watch, a conservative legal group, because the FBI has indicated that emails were work-related and not entirely private as Clinton had previously said.[19]

Next question. Is it the FBI which has to bring charges, or some other agency/entity. If the FBI's purpose is to investigate, but not to bring the actual criminal charge, who has to issue the warrant(s) for the arrest of the people they investigate, and why haven't they done so. Perhaps that is the place to look for misfeasance or nonfeasance.

Clearly, if those official emails came from her private server, they were official communications hosted on a non governmental network.

I think the person that is supposed to bring charges has recused himself.
