Hillary Clinton’s emails were no simple mistake. Evidence points to a blatant violation of 18 U.S. Code § 793, a law governing the handling of defense information. The former secretary of state mishandled classified material, yet the FBI and DOJ, under orders from Barack Obama, shielded her from prosecution. Instead of upholding the law, they acted as her personal defense team.
This wasn’t an investigation. It was a cover-up. James Comey, the man who publicly exonerated Clinton, assured Americans that the probe was “honest” and “independent.” But testimony from former CIA Director John Ratcliffe tells a different story. Lisa Page, an FBI attorney, admitted under oath that the DOJ explicitly instructed the FBI not to charge Clinton for gross negligence in handling classified information.
The exchange between Page and Ratcliffe makes it clear:
Ratcliffe: “You’re making it sound like it was the Department that told you: You’re not going to charge gross negligence because we’re the prosecutors and we’re telling you we’re not going to—”
Lisa Page: “That is correct.”
Let that sink in. The DOJ decided Clinton’s fate before the investigation even began. The rule of law was cast aside to protect one of Washington’s most powerful figures.
But there’s one major problem for Clinton and her allies: the statute of limitations for espionage in the United States is 10 years. That means the window to prosecute is still open. The crime remains. The evidence remains. And if justice means anything, Clinton must be held accountable.
