When Hillary isn’t outright lying about her personal server and illicit emails, she is blaming her aides or Colin Powell.

The Washington Post, NPR and other Democrat media are painting Hillary Clinton as a victim of Colin Powell for taking his advice about her email server. She’s a victim like Genghis Khan is a victim.

If she were indeed a naive victim of Powell’s, then she really is not sophisticated enough to be president. The media believes that Colin Powell misusing a personal email account exonerates her somehow.

The Democrats think that by dragging Colin Powell into Hillary’s email scandal, she will get cover but, in reality, it just means they both should be prosecuted. It also proves Hillary knew she was violating federal records laws.

Clinton’s top secret email address, “clintonemail.com”, was set up and registered in January 2009, before the email exchange, and she had every intention of avoiding the law before she traded emails with Powell.

Powell emailed Hillary that he had a personal computer hooked up to a private phone line so “he could communicate with a wide range of friends without going through the State Department servers”.

He also used his private account “to do business with some foreign leaders and some of the senior folks in the Department on their personal email accounts.”

Two wrongs make two wrongs and Hillary, as a longtime politician knew what she was doing and did it of her own free will.

Powell also warned her about using the Blackberry, showing she knew it was not allowed.

“If it is public that you have a Blackberry and it [sic] government and you are using it, government or not, to do business, it may become an official record and subject to the law.”

He told her that he “got around it by not saying much and not using systems that captured the data.”

Clinton knew what she was doing was wrong and circumvented FOIA based on these emails.

That, along with her destruction of her devices and Bleach Bitting of her computer after the records were subpoenaed, are felonies according to 18 U.S.C. § 2071(b). Former attorney general Michael Mukasey suggested she violated this law but he erroneously felt it disqualified her from holding office.

Criminals can be president in the US. The Constitution, regarding eligibility for the office of President, requires the person to have reached the age of 35 and to have lived in the US for 14 years. It would take a constitutional amendment to change it. It can’t be superseded by laws passed by Congress.

He wasn’t wrong about her violating the law, however.

U.S. Code Title 18, Section 2071 establishes the concealment or destruction of some government records as a crime, and that public officeholders who violate the code are to be disqualified from “holding any office under the United States”:

(a) Whoever willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, or destroys, or attempts to do so, or, with intent to do so takes and carries away any record, proceeding, map, book, paper, document, or other thing, filed or deposited with any clerk or officer of any court of the United States, or in any public office, or with any judicial or public officer of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.

(b) Whoever, having the custody of any such record, proceeding, map, book, document, paper, or other thing, willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, falsifies, or destroys the same, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both; and shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States.

All of this is evidence of “intent” which the FBI doesn’t need in this case. She knew and she is guilty.
