View Full Version : Hillary Clinton aides had access to State Dept. after she left, says key lawmaker....

When Hillary Clinton resigned as Secretary of State in 2013, she negotiated continuing access to classified and top-secret documents for herself and six staffers under the designation "research assistants," according to a powerful senator who notes that Clinton was later deemed "extremely careless" with such information.


The staff apparently retained access even after Clinton announced her run for president in April 2015, according to Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa. The access was ostensibly granted to facilitate work on Clinton's memoir, but Grassley said he was only able to verify it after the Obama administration left the White House.


“I have repeatedly asked the State Department whether Secretary Clinton and her associates had their clearances suspended or revoked to which the Obama Administration refused to respond,” Grassley wrote in a March 30 letter to Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.


The State Department has not yet responded it an inquiry from Fox News as to whether Clinton, or her staff, including then-chief of staff Cheryl Mills, Huma Abedin, her traveling chief of staff and former assistant, who went on to become the vice chair of her presidential campaign, and Jake Sullivan, her senior policy advisor, still have access to the classified and top-secret archives and systems.


Clinton could not immediately be reached for comment.


In 2015, Cheryl Mills’ attorney said her client had access as late as Oct. 30 of that year, according to documents reviewed by Fox News. After leaving the State Department, Mills was an advisor to Clinton’s presidential bid. Heather Samuelson, a lawyer who worked under Mills and also was a staffer for Clinton in 2008 during her presidential run, also apparently retained an active Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI) security clearance, according to records reviewed by Fox News.......snip~

Partisan is a product of party Loyalty. Analyze the freaking word.

I am critical of the police when they act inappropriately and I'm not critical when they don't. There are many threads here where I condemned police conduct. You wouldn't know that because with you, if one takes a pro-police stand in one situation, they automatically take the same stand in all situations.

I was hoping we could avoid me presenting the f'king definition, but I see we have to get remedial...

Merriam-Webster:


Definition of partisan
1
: a firm adherent to a party, faction, cause, or person; especially : one exhibiting blind, prejudiced, and unreasoning allegiance political partisans who see only one side of the problem

So like I said, it doesn't always mean party.

Yes, Tahuyaman, it is quite simple. You see, we are using the english language. Under the english language, there are guidelines for its' use, commonly called "rules". Under those rules, or "proper English grammar" it plainly states to "make sure to use words correctly".

Here...

- Only use capital letters for proper nouns and at the beginning of a sentence.

- For every sentence there should be one noun and one verb. A sentence with more than one noun or verb is confusing to understand.

- When a sentence is complete use appropriate punctuation. There is no need to have dual punctuation when ending a sentence.

- If an apostrophe is needed make sure to use it to show ownership. An apostrophe is also used when words are abbreviated.

- Whenever writing multiple sentences about the same subject or line of thought, use paragraphs to divide long segments of writing.

- Should a line of thought require a list make sure to separate each article by a comma.

- Make sure case and number of the subject and the verb match. It the noun is singular the verb should be singular as well.

- When connecting two lines of thought in a sentence, use a conjunction to make things make better sense.

- If you have two lines of thought that are similar feel free to use a semicolon to combine them.

- Make sure to use the correct tense when writing or speaking English.

- Try not to end a sentence with a preposition.

- A conjunction word should not be used to start a sentence.

- Sentences should be complete thoughts and not fragments.

- Try not to use double negatives. Such as no not never.

- Make sure to use words correctly.

- Avoid repeating lines of thought in sentences.

- Make sure paragraphs are complete, having three to five sentences each.

http://www.5minuteenglish.com/english-grammar-rules.htm

I thought the bottom paragraph was particularly fitting....
Rules of English grammar can be hard to understand, but not impossible. By following English grammar rules you will be proficient in writing and speech. Just stick to the basics, don’t try to fake your way through things.

So, having said that, and going back to the definition Common provided us (not even going to use Merriam-Webster, just in case you want to call it fake or alternate facts), from post #29, this is the definition he posted...


• PARTISAN (adjective)
The adjective PARTISAN has 2 senses:
1. devoted to a cause or party
2. adhering or confined to a particular sect or denomination or party

Which he had to skip over this one to to get to the one he posted...


• PARTISAN (noun)
The noun PARTISAN has 3 senses:
1. a fervent and even militant proponent of something
2. an ardent and enthusiastic supporter of some person or activity
3. a pike with a long tapering double-edged blade with lateral projections; 16th and 17th centuries

(I bolded the definition that correctly applies to the way you used the term in post #18...)
But Bo isn't a partisan in any way.
