Russia probe pile-on: No fewer than 9 teams investigating collusion, meddling
“The main problem is that after months and months of multiple investigations, no one has found any evidence of collusion,” a congressional source told Fox News. “So the Democrats are trying to shift the focus from collusion to obstruction, and since it doesn’t look like that will pan out for them either, they surely have some new accusation ready to put out there. It’s in their political interest to drag out these investigations as long as possible.”

You've been shown the SCOTUS rulings that govern how these cases are to be tried. You've been shown several times by several people.
So are you too stupid to understand, is your memory that shitty, are you so arrogant you think you know better than the high court, or you just being willfully idiotic?

ROFL, your siggy, holy fuck, that's funny.
100% of 23,000,000 is 23,000,000...
"more than 100%" of 23,000,000 would mean that somehow a negative number of people are covered under Ocare.

You and others didn't even have the correct statute.
I've already shown what statute she violated hundreds of times and intent is no where to be found.
I don't claim to know more than the high courts, but Comey's statement was bullshit as there were plenty of Federal prosecutors who would have tried her and won their case.

“As a former federal prosecutor with more than 350 criminal cases under my belt, I take serious issue with Director Comey’s conclusions,” said Sidney Powell, a former federal prosecutor in Texas and Virginia. “The applicable statute does not require specific intent to violate the law. Indeed, the only real issue is whether Secretary Clinton allowed classified information to be transmitted to her personal e-mail account. That alone is a felony count for each e-mail so transmitted — whether marked classified or not.”

that statute also requires the documents to be of "national defense" not merely classified, and courts construe "national defense" very narrowly in this context. not to mention, in comey's statement back in july, he even specifically said they DID look at the statute that only requires gross negligence and didnt recommend charges for that either
Quote:
Our investigation looked at whether there is evidence classified information was improperly stored or transmitted on that personal system, in violation of a federal statute making it a felony to mishandle classified information either intentionally or in a grossly negligent way, or a second statute making it a misdemeanor to knowingly remove classified information from appropriate systems or storage facilities.

Re: Russia probe pile-on: No fewer than 9 teams investigating collusion, meddling

unfortunatley, it varies on subject matter. gross negligence in a contract claim is different than it would be in a criminal matter. and even within the scope of crimes, it would be different in the context of a homicide vs unauthorized use/access of classified data. you'd need to review case law on similar crimes to see the federal standard. generally speaking, negligence is a deviation from the reasonable standard of care, and gross negligence is a gross deviation. what constitutes a gross deviation is based on precedent and interpretation, and it's not defined in the statute.
so comey saying she was extremely careless isn't the same as saying she was grossly negligent by any legal standard... which is why he brought up the statute you refer to (where only gross negligence, as opposed to specific intent, is required), said she was careless, and still didn't recommend prosecution based on their investigation.
i'm sure you can look through a bunch of online dictionaries and find places where they say negligence = careless as one of the definitions and say "a-ha!"... but that has no bearing in court

Re: Russia probe pile-on: No fewer than 9 teams investigating collusion, meddling
its frustrating that the answer tends to be "need to look up the case law" but that's simply a result of setting up standards like negligence/recklessness/specific intent rather than spelling out every possible way in which the statute can be violated
my point in all this is that you cant simply say "lol he said careless and careless = negligent so she's guilty"

Re: Russia probe pile-on: No fewer than 9 teams investigating collusion, meddling
In the case the defense argued that "relating to the national defense" was too vague and there was no way for the defendant to know what fell under that definition. The majority disagreed as long as was present "intent or reason to believe that the information to be obtained is to be used to the injury of the United States."
TSA's poor memory and generally poor intellect strikes again.
You are wasting your time on a red herring. The need for intent arises from a different part of the law.

they bring up intent because the statute in question in that case required intent.
i do get that they are trying to warn that "national defense" could be dangerously vague, and in the context of this case, the intent requirement alleviated that concern. still, i dont know that they have made any sort of determination specific to section F that doesn't require intent. it would stand to reason that they would think it's too vague, but it hasn't been challenged yet to my knowledge. i haven't done comprehensive research to answer either way

Re: Russia probe pile-on: No fewer than 9 teams investigating collusion, meddling
TSA... the point is,
1 - you keep bringing up subsection F which does not require specific intent, only gross negligence.
2 - in comey's address, he agrees that it was proper to look at that subsection (he doesn't recite the statute code, but he says "either intentionally or a grossly negligent way"). so he's on the same page that 793(F) is appropriate
3 - comey said they were extremely careless, and gave examples to show it
4 - however, he did not recommend charges
the disconnect in my eyes is that you are equating the extremely careless comment with the legal standard of gross negligence. they sound similar-ish, and i'm sure some dictionaries will equate them. but the legal standard is defined through case law and precedent, not by websters dictionary. to get a good answer to the question, you'd have to have somebody dive through a bunch of appellate level decisions relating to gross negligence under the espionage act or other similar statutes with a gross negligence quality. comey said they looked into past cases and could not come across case with this set of facts that was prosecuted

Quote:
We there said that the statute "condemns no act or omission;" that the vagueness is such as to violate due process. [Footnote 12]
But we find no uncertainty in this statute which deprives a person of the ability to predetermine whether a contemplated action is criminal under the provisions of this law. [Footnote 13] The obvious delimiting words in the statute are those requiring "intent or reason to believe that the information to be obtained is to be used to the injury of the United States, or to the advantage of any foreign

Please point to me that part that speaks to the specifics of the case and not the Espionage Act itself.

Greta just took the pickle over at MSNBC. Not confrontational enough. & I have to admit, anytime I sent it over there and found her I just went back to CNN.
[[[As evidenced by Coale's comments, it appears that the news arrived abruptly on Thursday even for Van Susteren herself. A friend of Van Susteren's told CNNmoney that she was given no prior notice of the decision.
The same source said that Van Susteren was informed that she had not been confrontational enough in her on-air presentation, perhaps a suggestion that MSNBC is once again embracing its liberal roots and adopting a more adversarial posture toward President Donald Trump.]]]

1. We disagree on what constitutes gross negligence
2. The servers were set up intentionally. There are emails of Clinton instructing to scrub classified headers and send insecure. There was both intent and gross negligence.
3. Agreed, and just disagree to what extent.

Do we really need to have a grammar lesson and discuss the difference between subject and predicate? intent is in the subject and applies to all portions of the predicate including the omitted part. Again if you want to point out how the omission makes a difference than have at it but all I get out of this is that your reading skills are poor.
I get that you are grasping at straws and this is the best you can do but ffs your stupidity is tiresome.

Cause the formatting in case law is wonky.
Do you acknowledge that SCOTUS stated that to prosecute under the Espionage Act that proof of intent for bad faith is required?

The Special Counsel alone could go many different directions.
Open the flood gates on all sorts of mundane financial crimes.
Thanks for your cooperation Team Trump, why don't you just ask next time you want every possible footstep looked into.
"Please just end it Mr. Comey"
Ok.
Release the Kraken.
You like lawyers and lawsuits, feast on this...

TSA cries about a simple question not being answered and then ignores one in turn. He has no idea what honor even is.

Yeah, firing Comey was a major fuck up. All because Comey wouldn't publicly announce Trump wasn't under investigation.

The intransigence Team Trump illustrated was stupidity.
I guess when one is so used to steam rolling people in private business...
Welcome to democracy. When will Trump accept the concept. He could have got a whole lot done by now. Idiot gets everything tied up in court. Overstepping constantly. No subtle abilities. Seems he really does wanna be like Putin. Although Trump is fully challenging Putin in Syria in ways Obama would not have touched. Who knows if this is a good approach or not. Based on the recklessness so far it may be trouble.
He won the election. It's done. Get over it and get to work.
Everyone. Please.

Doesn't help when he focuses his attention on attacking specific media personalities. What a waste of time. If he really wants to make America better, he should resign.

um, it isn't a matter of opinion. It is a matter of basic math.
If I tell you I am going to give you $100 dollars, but only give you $50, what percentage did you get out of what was promised?
0%? or some other number?

Re: Russia probe pile-on: No fewer than 9 teams investigating collusion, meddling
100%-100% = 0
100% - More than 100% = (negative number)

Alternately:
If I promise to give you $100, and someone says what you actually got was less by 100% of this figure, how much money do you have?
