Hillary Clinton is one of the most corrupt politicians in history.
In 2016, it all came to a head with her infamous email scandal.
And she might finally go to jail for it after one court order dropped.
Hillary Clinton’s Email Scandal
There was no bigger scandal in 2016 than Hillary Clinton’s misuse of a private email server.
It became clear she had been using a private email server to send and receive classified information.
It ended up spurring an FBI investigation.
And the then-FBI Director James Comey found troubling evidence.
30,000 emails included State Department business from her time as Secretary of State.
Of those, 110 emails and 52 email chains contained classified information when they were sent or received.
Eight of those were top secret.
36 contained information that was classified as top secret at the time they were sent.
On top of that, 2,000 additional emails were classified but did not contain the required labeling.
These emails on an unsecure server are extremely dangerous.
Hackers can gain access much easier on a private account than on an official government email account.
And there is indication that foreign hackers did gain access.
Comey Lets Hillary Off The Hook
In response, Comey let Hillary off the hook.
He said that “there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information.”
But he chose not to pursue charges.
This angered millions of Americans.
The rule of law seems not to apply to Hillary.
So a then-candidate Trump put Hillary on blast.
He ended up making her corruption a campaign talking point and his supporters would chant “lock her up!”
And President Trump assured them he would do just that.
But few steps had been taken up until this past week.
Now that’s all changed.
Hillary Gets A Court Order
U.S. District Court Judge Emmet Sullivan is ordering Hillary to testify about her emails under oath.
This is in response to a Judicial Watch lawsuit about her emails.
And it creates a lot of problems for Hillary.
While she is being let off the hook by Comey, it doesn’t mean she’s innocent.
Comey said as much.
So testifying under oath makes her claiming innocence difficult.
She will be required to tell the truth.
If she doesn’t, she risks facing perjury charges.
And that can cause her to end up behind bars.
Perjury is a serious charge that many can face, even unintentionally.
Michael Flynn is only in trouble for lying to the FBI.
He didn’t do anything else wrong, but one unintentional lie got him.
So the same thing can happen to Hillary.
In the past, she has been protected due to her status as a Clinton.
But in 2018, her name doesn’t hold the same weight it once did.
Do you think Hillary Clinton should be in jail?
