Is Perjury Still A Crime?

Is anything, if your name is Clinton?
'Today's disclosure that 30 additional emails about Benghazi were discovered on Hillary Clinton's private server raises additional questions about the more than 30,000 emails she deleted,' Trump campaign Senior Communications Advisor Jason Miller said in a statement.

'Hillary Clinton swore before a federal court and told the American people she handed over all of her work-related emails.'

For Clinton to be investigated for perjury, then for a recommendation to indict to flow, then for DoJ to prosecute, Comey and Lynch would have to admit that they screwed up when they decided not to prosecute Clinton for her classified information handling, about which she lied shamelessly and repeatedly. Neither Comey nor Lynch has the integrity to make such an admission, even tacitly through carrying through the above sequence.

The only way a Clinton will be prosecuted for perjury will be after a Republican is elected President this fall (later election cycles will be too late, if only from statute of limitation parameters), the upper third of DoJ leadership terminated and replaced (along with most of the Main Law lawyers who stayed put rather than resign in disgust, as we discussed in earlier threads), and the senior leadership of the FBI similarly terminated and replaced.

Full stop.

I thought Perjury was a town in Arkansas. Somewhere south of Little Rock, isn't it?

And I second Eric's points. I also am beginning to suspect that Putin will need to be assassinated.

Oh, I'm really on someone's watch list now.

Put me on that list.

I'll spot your snipery, Tom.

Might Makes Right.

Western civilization has yet to make a counter claim against that, other than Right makes Might or Right for Might.

Logically, righteousness does not confer upon you might or power, beyond your own personal limits and resources. Right for Might sounds like a trade, where an external third party someone exchanges your Righteousness, for Might, like exchanging gold for goods. That third party has a lot of Might, but has need of Righteousness, hence the trade.

Lucifer, while guiding Mohammed, probably gave away a lot of Might, not because Lucifer needed righteousness, but because humans needed a belief that their way was righteous. Thus confusing their ability to conquer with the right to conquer.

You might need to put that in Russian, if Russia is using Google bot technology. Otherwise the key words won't be flagged and lifted from the source material. After that, they still need a human to check over things, which is the problem of having trillions upon trillions of data to filter.
