Ahhh, the excitement of the journalistic world, as news rolls down the wire and stories need to be pounded out to reach deadlines! No sooner had we hard working journalists thought that we finished our work, and prepared to go to the pub to drink large quantities of alcohol, then this news came relevant to our coverage of the US elections:
“Indictment Likely for Clinton,” or “Bret Baier: FBI sources Believe Clinton Foundation Case Moving Toward “Likely an Indictment,” at http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2016/11/02/fbi_sources_tell_fox_news_indictment_likely_in_clinton_foundation_case.html.
The Murdoch press/Fox News has a milder version of this:
“FBI’s Clinton Foundation Investigation Now ‘A Very High Priority,’ sources Say,’” at http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/11/02/fbis-clinton-foundation-investigation-now-very-high-priority-sources-say.html.
Here is a transcript from Fox New’s Bret Baier which puts the latest news in a nutshell:
BRET BAIER: Here's the deal: We talked to two separate sources with intimate knowledge of the FBI investigations.
One: The Clinton Foundation investigation is far more expansive than anybody has reported so far... Several offices separately have been doing their own investigations.
Two: The immunity deal that Cheryl Mills and Heather Samuelson, two top aides to Hillary Clinton, got from the Justice Department in which it was believed that the laptops they had, after a narrow review for classified materials, were going to be destroyed. We have been told that those have not been destroyed -- they are at the FBI field office here on Washington and are being exploited.
Three: The Clinton Foundation investigation is so expansive, they have interviewed and re-interviewed many people. They described the evidence they have as 'a lot of it' and said there is an 'avalanche coming in every day.'
WikiLeaks and the new emails.
They are "actively and aggressively pursuing this case." Remember the Foundation case is about accusations of pay-for-play... They are taking the new information and some of them are going back to interview people for the third time. As opposed to what has been written about the Clinton Foundation investigation, it is expansive.
The classified e-mail investigation is being run by the National Security division of the FBI. They are currently combing through Anthony Weiner's laptop. They are having some success -- finding what they believe to be new emails, not duplicates, that have been transported through Hillary Clinton's server.
Finally, we learned there is a confidence from these sources that her server had been hacked. And that it was a 99% accuracy that it had been hacked by at least five foreign intelligence agencies, and that things had been taken from that...
There has been some angst about Attorney General Loretta Lynch -- what she has done or not done. She obviously did not … go to a grand jury at the beginning. They also have a problem, these sources do, with what President Obama said today and back in October of 2015...
I pressed again and again on this very issue... The investigations will continue, there is a lot of evidence. And barring some obstruction in some way, they believe they will continue to likely an indictment.

That is the establishment sources, but the alternative IT community seems to have the drop on Clinton. Kim Dotcom thinks that the 33,000 incriminating emails that Clinton deleted are now in the hands of Wikileaks and will soon be released to the public, by-passing the FBI, leading to Clinton’s greatest nightmare:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3895316/Internet-pirate-Kim-Dotcom-warns-Clinton-trouble-unpublished-material-come-out.html.
If any guys can find this material these computer geniuses can.
In response to “Emailgate,” the Clinton campaign have gone into absolute panic mode, and have responded by saying that the FBI is a rogue agency which is siding with Putin and the Kremlin against her. What! – a conspiracy hypothesis – what will the journalists at The Australian say about that one? (Probably nothing).
But to recap, it is highly likely that the missing classified emails have been found on Anthony Weiner’s laptop, among the 650,000! And Wikileaks will be dropping an a-bomb soon! It is now almost certain that Hillary Clinton’s server was hacked by five foreign powers, which is an indictable offence. That is apart from anything else that surfaces. Who knows what dirt will be dug up from 650,000+ emails of shame.
Thus, we have the very interesting situation that Clinton may be elected president, but end up being arrested. Obviously such a president would be immediately impeached, but the real important issue is whether there is a constitutional case for overturning the election result. This one will need to be decided by the US Supreme Court, which is likely to support Clinton, being now full of the ultra-politically correct. Thus, such a decision will further enrage Trump voters, leading to widespread civil disobedience, which could be the start of Civil War II.
An alternative scenario has been offered by Mike Adams at Natural News.com, November 2, 2016, which sees the “Deep State” having decided that Clinton is too damaged to champion any longer, and will let Trump win, for the time. Then it will be time for the long-predicted economic crash that will be used to completely destroy Trump, because he will be totally unable to “make America great again” under a condition of economic collapse.
As Adams says, “bringing down the debt pyramid of a nation carrying nearly $20 trillion in national debt isn’t exactly rocket science. All they have to do is stand back and stop manipulating the markets and stop printing new money for a few months while raising interest rates. Monetary gravity will do the rest.” Human nature, being what it is, will result in loving crowds turning on President Trump for failing to deliver paradise.
Hopefully Trump’s ego will not prevent him from seeing this and acting quickly to move on prosecuting the Clintons and others, and to set up an independent organisation to continue the fight once he falls, as fall he will. Maybe, just maybe, he will still be able to take down a system which is rotten to the core, like our own here in Australia.
All in all, very exciting times, for never has a political system been exposed in its full shocking horror of corruption and deception.
