DC justice: Hillary skates while war hero pays
Well yeah, but the war hero must have had criminal intent; Hillary was just ignorant and careless, perish the thought of any implication of gain for her or her foundation. The multiple chains of secret and top- secret information, and some above top-secret that she hazarded, the security laws and regulation she broke, well when the Clinton’s do wrong, the dominant media downplays it and shrugs it off as well, nobody’s perfect.
Excerpts from J Marsolo writing at American Thinker:
The New York Times, via Christopher Drew, reported on August 19, 2016:
Matt Bissonnette, a former member of Navy SEAL Team 6 who wrote an account of the raid that killed Osama bin Laden, agreed on Friday to forfeit $6.8 million in book royalties and speaking fees and apologized for failing to clear his disclosures with the Pentagon, according to federal court documents.
Mr. Bissonnette also recently forfeited $180,000 in fees for consulting work that he did for military contractors while he was still on the SEAL team[.] …
If approved by a federal judge in Alexandria, Va., the royalty settlement would bring an end to more than two years of civil and criminal investigations into Mr. Bissonnette, who won several awards for valor in Iraq and Afghanistan before writing “No Easy Day,” his best-selling book on the Bin Laden raid, under the pen name Mark Owen.
We have a decorated hero, who was involved in killing Osama bin Laden, responsible for killing over 3,000 Americans on September 11, 2001, pursued by the federal government, both civilly and criminally, because he did not clear his book with the Pentagon.
Yet Hillary Clinton, who used a private email server that endangered our national security, destroyed over 30,000 emails, and lied that she did not use her server for classified information, skates from any criminal prosecution.

Hillary has also used her position as secretary of state to get donations from foreign governments to the Clinton Foundation, and to earn speaking fees of up to $500K per speech for herself and her “husband,” Bill.

Urgent to Director Comey:
Living in a third world dictatorship as we Americans are at this time, I wish to make a statement:
While I readily admit to reading Mr. Bissonnette’s book, “No Easy Day”, I did not communicate any confidential information, so marked, on my personal email, from that book (there were a few pages marked with a small ‘c’ but I did not interpret them as containing confidential information). I also wish to assert that, if indeed, some confidential information was passed along, I did not intend to commit a criminal action.
I appreciate your understanding in this matter. Best regards, Your Loyal Obama/Clinton Voter.
Be very careful, Gus. Mr. Comey may decide to have his buddy Patrick Fitzgerald look into the sincerity of your claim of ‘no intent’. After all, you did read a forbidden book.
