Another sticky Hillary scandal

-

The Clintons clearly learned one very, um, hard lesson from the Monica Lewinsky blue dress — always scrub the evidence clean before it gets submitted to the feds. Back then, it was just a Gap dress that held a very nasty Bill stain; this time it’s a server that held the nasty evidence that Clinton used a private email server which she was not supposed to use to send and receive government communicat­ions. As you have read, Hillary did hand over her private server and three thumb drives with work emails to the authoritie­s, but the server had been scrubbed clean of everything, including any possible remaining evidence such as the 30,000 deleted emails.

The company she used, Platte River says they are most likely not recoverabl­e. What we know now from the Inspector General for the Intelligen­ce Community, (made up of 17 spy agencies) is that it has so far found four classified emails — two of which are top-secret.

These four were found in a random sampling of 40 emails out of 30,000. The top-secret emails were received by Clinton, not sent out by her.

But what is forever lost may never be known because it has been scrubbed cleaner than a hypochondr­iac’s hands. The server is not missing in action, but the action is missing from the server.

How much scandal is too much scandal for the Clintons to handle? As they used to say on MTV, “Too much is never enough.”

In fact, the Clintons’ nonstick coating is so thick, they make the late Teflon Don look like he was covered in flypaper. Scandal drives the Clinton machine that produces the power that prints the money.

Another potential scandal hit Team Hillary on Thursday when the Daily Mail broke the story that Platte River Networks — the firm that maintained her home server — has been sued for allegedly “illegally accessing a master database for all U.S. phone numbers” and “stealing White House military advisers’ phone numbers.”

The company is accused in a lawsuit by telecommun­ications company T2 of seizing phone lines, including lines for military support for the White House, Department of Energy, Department of Defense, hospitals and financial institutio­ns, which in turn caused the phone numbers to stop working.

While Clinton wasn’t using Platte River when this particular incident occurred, it calls into question the security and ability of that company to have kept the secretary of state’s informatio­n secure. Slimier still, the company’s website, as the Mail points out, boasts that it has “connection­s in all the right places.” But seriously, it seems to have had even better disconnect­ions, including those disconnect­ed lines to the White House!

While it’s a lawsuit and nothing has been proven, it’s just more dirt that eventually won’t wash off. Who needs China to hack the U.S. government when we’ve got our own homegrown companies doing it? Buy American!
