"Obama had previously claimed that like everything else he learned as President, he first learned about Hillary’s secret private email from the pages of the newspapers. We know that’s not true now. In fact, it’s almost certainly a lie and it gives us some insight into why there was actually never any charges against her, because there is no way the FBI and DOJ could have gone after her for misuse or mishandling of classified info, if in fact the President was doing the exact same thing at the same time. So it’s a pretty earth shattering bombshell in that report as far as I’m concerned." “
IG Report confirms Obama lied about Hillary’s emails


Yeah but this thing depresses because it doesn't make a difference. The Republicans will not ever be able to do anything significant with it, not if the past is any indicator of things... What we got is a Watergate situation where the majority press is on the side of Nixon, and wants to help cover up, or shift the conversation over to their pet causes (AKA Democratic talking points) instead of the corruption.


But if I'm wrong I'll be happy, but like the 1970s song from Boston lamented "I've gotten use to Bad news".

Well yes, an intelligent reader can see the reason why Hillary Clinton got a pass on her email security violation.

Jim Comey saw no need for charges. IG Horowitz found Comey 'was not motivated by any political bias'. All of this happened after Obama left office.

The article's only source for claiming that Obama would've known this is his being the recipient of emails from the clintonemail.com domain. Proving that he lied would require showing 1.) that these emails contained official Secretary of State business, 2.) that even if they were for official business that they weren't accidental or otherwise opportunistic (i.e. somebody first sent something to her private account from which she then responded or forwarded the message), and 3.) that he paid attention to the domain name in the first place.

#1 is probably a safe assumption. The other two are not. The full footnote says that none of the emails that went to Obama contained classified information:

https://www.justice.gov/file/1071991/download
FBI analysts and Prosecutor 2 told us that former President Barack Obama was one of the 13 individuals with whom Clinton had direct contact using her clintonemail.com account. Obama, like other high level government officials, used a pseudonym for his username on his official government email account. The analysts told us that they questioned whether Obama’s email address (combined with salutations that revealed that the emails were being exchanged with Obama) or other information contained in the emails were classified and, thus, sent the emails to relevant USIC agencies for classification review. However, they stated that the USIC agencies determined that none of the emails contained classified information.

As an aside, note that this article is 2 years old.

IG Report confirms Obama lied about Hillary’s emails
This article is over 2 yrs. old.
This report came out over two years ago and says that in a footnote that Obama had received on his Blackberry an email from Clinton sent from her private email acc't that was set up through her private email server.
If Obama didn't realize which server was being used, he should have.

Yeah, too bad there's not a Republican heading up the DoJ, one who promised to prosecute Hillary as part of his campaign.

And way more who got it because of his policies.

Also, there may be some people who lost their health care because of Obama's lies, but there are a lot of people who lost their LIVES because of trump's lies.
And there are also a lot of people who did not become infected because of Trumps actions.

Please go reread the article, it explains why nothing was done.

Hillary Clinton is working to try and take away your Oreo cookies.

WAKE UP AMERICA!
Whoa there.... that crosses the most sacred of lines. I will NOT be voting for Hilary in this coming presidential election.

If you want to claim it has factual errors go for it, just be specific and try to find some proof.

I've already pointed out how the author assumes things he doesn't know.

there is no question about the facts, the issue is the reason for those facts.

Trump's chants of 'lock her up' were just bluster to get the rubes to clap and laugh about stigginit to the liberals, not anything based on reality.

There is sufficient evidence that she violated the law.

Then what’s stopping Trump and the Republicans from putting her behind bars?
DOJ has moved on the more important investigations, but the evidence from those investigations may reopen the investigation on her.
