At least one more question got answered.....the DNC COULDN'T turn over their server to the FBI as requested because they DIDN'T HAVE IT ANYMORE....it didn't exist since their own IT guy secretly swapped out THEIR server with HIS own and took it with him, along with every document on it from/to every DEM member of Congress and everyone on their payroll.

Now for a NEW question.....WHY IS SCHULTZ STILL IN CONGRESS?

Speaking of security clearances

Dozens of Trump officials still lack full security clearance

Washington (CNN)Thirty to 40 White House officials and administration political appointees are still operating without full security clearances, including senior adviser to President Donald Trump Jared Kushner and -- until recently -- White House staffer Rob Porter, according to a US official and a source familiar with the situation.

The White House claims that the backlog of interim security clearances is a procedural consequence of the review process carried out by the FBI and White House Office of Security, which can take time to complete.

But several sources, including intelligence officials who have served previous Democratic and GOP administrations, describe the backlog as very unusual and make clear that the process should have been completed after a year in office.

Wendy OR Debbie?

The media ridiculed President Trump on Twitter Friday after he mistakenly called former Democratic National Committee chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, "Wendy," in a tweet.

The tweet came in response to the DNC filing a lawsuit against his campaign, Russia, and WikiLeaks for allegedly colluding to tilt the election in favor of Trump.

"Just heard the Campaign was sued by the Obstructionist Democrats. This can be good news in that we will now counter for the DNC Server that they refused to give to the FBI, the Wendy Wasserman Schultz Servers and Documents held by the Pakistani mystery man and Clinton Emails," Trump tweeted.

Apr 24, 2018 10:23AM PDT

IF you had bothered to click on ANY of the links in his article, you would have found that, as an INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALIST, he actually did his homework and GOT the facts about Wasser-person and the Dems and the IT guy and his entire family who were not only NOT vetted but were on the DNC payroll, STOLE the DNC server and transferred everything on it to their own server, worked for the Pakistani government, STOLE Wasser-person's laptop AND left it in a bathroom for the FBI WITH A NOTE GIVING THEM HER USERNAME AND PASSWORD.......AND she refused to FIRE him even AFTER she knew he was being investigated.

Those are just the MAJORITY of the facts.......but it makes you wonder what Wasser-person was/is worried about now that he's been locked up.....will HE cut a deal and flip on HER? It also makes you wonder why he's ONLY been charged right now with trying to leave the country and not anything else. Is the 'fix' in for ALL Dems and anybody affiliated with them? Even Podesta and his brother haven't been looked at for THEIR Russian ties........

Any comment yet?

Here's a comment....

IF YOU want ME to read/sift through the links he provided for ACTUAL facts...That is not gonna' happen....YOU made the claim...you do the sifting....

YOU claim what he says are "ACTUAL facts"...

ACTUAL facts don't have statements like

may have potentially stolen very important information.

may have?

potentially stolen?

"May have" should be DID...

"potentially stolen" should be STOLE...

Think of it like this, JP.....
Apr 25, 2018 12:02PM PDT

The LIAR had her own private server....got a subpoena for ALL of her emails, DELETED over 30K of them, and so far they haven't been found.....but that's because the FBI hadn't bothered to really look for them before; perhaps they will now though because even Comey said that at least five foreign entities had hacked it so SOMEBODY out there DOES have them.

Same thing with the DNC server.....their own IT guy STOLE all of their documents by having them diverted to his OWN server which was why Wasser-person COULDN'T let the FBI look at the DNC server....it was empty. PODESTA's emails were the ONLY ones that proved the DNC with Wasser-person at the helm had rigged the election away from Sanders to the LIAR, and those emails were made public by WikiLeaks who has never been contacted by ANY USA government agency to find out where THEY got them from....they claim it wasn't Russia or any other foreign government agency (we still only have the word of corrupt FBI and CIA and NSA top officials that it was Russia), so it could easily have been Wasser-person's OWN IT guy for all we know. In any event, so far, NOBODY is saying anything about whether that guy's server was ever turned over, looked at, or ignored at this point, which is why 'potentially stolen' is just that because it may already be being looked at. After all, he DID leave her laptop for the FBI to find complete with username and password to it. IF the information from the server was dumped on it for them to have, it wouldn't matter to Pakistan if he and his family had already sold or given it to their government agents.

The FACTS are in that article.....IF you have no interest in actually being educated and fully informed that's your businesses. I handed it to you.....you only have to take it. But being the loyal liberal that you are, you don't want to know the truth because you can't handle the truth (to quote from a pretty great movie line). It's more convenient for you to deny and resist.

RE:Same thing with the DNC server
Apr 25, 2018 1:20PM PDT

2 different scenarios and they are "the same thing"?

You claim Hillary did something on her own AND Schultz had their own IT guy STOLE all of their documents by having them diverted to his OWN server

When something is "diverted" it doesn't go where it was intended to go..the original destination knows nothing of what was supposed to be delivered.....NO RECORD


To me it looks like ONE is the perpetrator of a crime(IF your scenario is correct...I delete emails in my email all the time....GUILTY?) and the other is a victim of a crime...

So HOW are they "the same"?

Because both can't provide a record of emails?

BUT for entirely different reasons?

NOT THE SAME.....

one was a victim of a crime (assuming you mean the DNC and Wasser-person), explain to me WHY, if that's true, would a VICTIM of a CRIME REFUSE to cooperate with the FBI and have the PERP arrested, along with his family, BEFORE they all left or attempted to leave the country AND threaten the POLICE when they refused to give her back her laptop AND refuse to FIRE the PERP until long AFTER he was outed?

Also explain to me why you don't consider deleting 30+K emails that were under a subpoena by Congress NOT a crime?

Awan was arrested at Dulles Airport this week, just as he was trying to flee the United States for Pakistan, via Qatar.

It turns out they were accessing members’ computers without their knowledge, transferring files to remote servers, and stealing computer equipment — including hard drives that Awan & Co. smashed to bits of bytes before making tracks.

They were fired in February. All except Awan, that is. He continued in the employ of Wasserman Schultz, the Florida Democrat, former DNC chairwoman, and Clinton crony. She kept him in place at the United States Congress right up until he was nabbed at the airport on Monday.


You complain about not turning over hard drives that were "smashed to bits"?

you just made my entire point for me, JP.
Apr 26, 2018 7:14AM PDT

Wasser-person refused to fire him even after she knew he was being investigated, and she refused to turn over the DNC server to the FBI. She and the DNC continued the coverup. And, yes, his entire family fled the country ahead of time after stealing not only MONEY for work they never did but DNC documents and since they also had DEMOCRAT CONGRESSIONAL MEMBERS' INFO, GOVERNMENT DOCUMENTS AS WELL, that eventually got sold to the Pakistani government.

But you know that already because you actually looked at the FACTS I presented via the article, didn't you?

We have IT security morons on both sides of the aisle.
It also seems we have an IT security moron driving the bus.

whose DOJ stood by and DID NOTHING against the DNC, the LIAR, the former head of the DNC, AND ALL of those involved in records going 'missing', either by THEFT or DELIBERATELY deleting them AND by standing by and DOING NOTHING about the DNC openly rigging an election with actual PROOF of it via leaked PODESTA emails.

Keep spinning it any way you want....you can't blame ANY of it on Trump. And perhaps we DO need a ghost town in DC since not very many of them can be trusted anymore and it's becoming more and more obvious by the day.

Yours is an everyday occurrence and yet you have NOTHING to actually complain about other than you just personally don't like him...even if his POLICIES are working. At least in my complaints about BO, it's not personal..it's ALL about his destructive policies that have been PROVEN to be bad for this country.

Your dislike for BO and Hillary is so great you can ignore the child we have now.

You just want to carp about yesterday.

As for the child's policies that seems to change daily so time will tell how they play out.
