The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I've shown you the exact USC Hillary! violated and it's never enough.

It's not enough, because she didn't violate the statute you cited. Here's that thread again:

albaby1 replies on Trump on Tape w/ Classified Docs

As was pointed out to you several times in that thread, one of the required elements of committing that crime is knowingly removing the document from where it is supposed to be. But Clinton was the recipient of all of the emails containing classified information. It was sent to her, but she wasn't the one who sent it to her private server - she was the one who received it. She possessed it - but the statute doesn't criminalize possessing classified information on an unsecured server. It criminalizes knowingly removing it.

When it was pointed out to you that she never did the specific thing that the statute criminalizes, you pivoted to lots of other things she did wrong - and lots of reasons why what she did was wrong. But regardless of whether any of those other arguments you made are correct, doing wrong things and mishandling classified information is not criminal unless it violates the specific provisions of a criminal statute. Which Clinton's conduct did not.
