Fellow Conservative,
Last week, the House of Representatives gained access to the notes of Hillary Clinton’s interrogation with the FBI over her private email server arrangement.
You won’t be able to see these notes because they are classified at the Top Secret level. The only reason that the notes would be classified as Top Secret is if they discussed classified information during the interrogation.
Another Catch-22: How can Hillary Clinton’s story be true – that she never sent or received classified information – if her interrogation included a discussion about classified material?
But believe it or not, that isn’t even the biggest revelation. The Clinton campaign threw General and former-Secretary of State Colin Powell under the bus and laid the blame on him for encouraging Hillary Clinton to break the law.
His response? ‘No.’
Word leaked out of Congress that Hillary Clinton told FBI investigators that Colin Powell had recommended that she use a private email server as Secretary of State.
Powell tried to respond as politely as he could, saying that he had no recollection of such a conversation but that he did send Hillary an email suggesting that she use a private email system for non-classified communications.
The media ran with the story, using headlines such as, “Colin Powell Told Hillary To Use Private Email.”
Well, Powell is now hitting back and accusing the Clinton Campaign of lying.
Yes, Colin Powell used an AOL private email address… in the early 2000s. At the time, the State Department did not have an email system for non-classified information. But at no time did Powell set up a private server in his basement or bathroom and at no time did he use the email address for classified communications.
Powell lashed out over the weekend. “Her people are trying to pin it on me,” he told People magazine, “the truth is, she was using [the private email server] for a year before I sent her a memo telling her what I did.”
So Hillary lied… to the FBI… during an interrogation.
But as you might remember, the FBI conveniently never put her under oath, so perjury charges for this lie are completely out the window. Lying to a FBI agent is a crime, even if not under oath, but no one actually believes that Loretta Lynch would authorize such a prosecution…
It is easy to look at the long list of lies that Hillary Clinton has told and to just resign yourself to accepting she will not be punished. As long as it is up to the Obama administration, Hillary Clinton will never face prosecution for her crimes.
The good news? It doesn’t have to be up to Loretta Lynch and the Obama administration. Congress has the lawful authority to bypass the Executive Branch entirely and send a criminal referral right to a Grand Jury!
This power rests in Congress’ ability to charge people who lie under oath with Contempt of Congress. If someone is held in Contempt, then the Attorney General has a “duty” under the law to impanel a Grand Jury. Loretta Lynch and Barack Obama would be powerless to stop it.
The fact of the matter is that Hillary Clinton lied to Congress under oath.
She swore that she never sent or received emails marked classified. Lie.
She claimed that she handed over all work-related emails to the State Dept. Lie.
She stated that her lawyers went through all of her emails before deleting them. Lie.
Just because Hillary’s latest lie – to the FBI, no less – wasn’t made under oath doesn’t mean that she should not be fully prosecuted.
Here’s the deal. This now falls into your lap. It is your responsibility to get Congress to hold Hillary Clinton in Contempt of Congress.
Congress won’t act unless they are forced to. They won’t act unless YOU force them!
Sincerely,
Joe Otto
