The problem IS THAT the CIA TOLD her what to say
They told everyone to tell their official story, that's how National security works
that's the plausible reason, don't like it, too bad
was she supposed to disobey orders??
such a pathetic line of reasoning you're running with
which was the truth and which one was the lie John?
I think you still got it backwards
are you blaming the deaths of those there on HER????
why not blame the terrorists, like a normal person.

Lest you all forget.
Heidi told the campaign’s “National Prayer Team” during a conference call, “God does not work in four-year segments.”

However, as pointed out above she is not the first Secretary of State to use one, yet she is the only one receiving criticism.
Please name others.
Oh, if you're thinking Powell, he had a private account but not server. I'd have to look it up, but it was on one of the big providers, Yahoo, Gmail, or something like that.
There is a huge, huge difference! For one thing, Powell could not in principle wipe his past emails. As we all know, the providers are themselves subject to subpoena, so the FBI could have in principle gotten ALL of the emails, including the deleted ones.
No, Clinton knew this, and she was determined to not only delete but wipe, and you need your own server to have that level of control.
This is beyond "looks bad," and it's why this thing is not going away.
This is her very, very clearly assuming absolute control over the information-flow, which is the very thing the law disallows. No other Sec-State did what she's done. It's not a "quantitative" difference; it's a qualitative difference. That's the answer to your question of why it's being investigated and viewed by tens of millions (including me) as substantively different from what the likes of Powell did.
Oh, and BTW, Powell did catch a lot of flak for what he did, which makes it all the more intentional (and amazing) that Clinton far-and-away upped the ante with her behavior.

Religion; used and abused. A comment on Jeremiah Johnson's Trump Prophesy from https://avemariaradio.net/prophecy-donald-trump-shall-become-the-trumpet/
A Note from Al:
I remember a major Pentecostal prophet in 1992 delivering a prophecy rebuking Christians who were opposing Bill Clinton. This prophecy caused a rift among Christians. He claimed that Clinton was God’s man for major change in this country including abolishing abortion. Again, this 1992 prophet was highly respected. He wasn’t some local aspirant who might get a word from God that sounded like this: “Thus says the Lord, I am the Alfalfa and the Omega.” This Jeremiah Johnson is also respected. But who will hold him responsible for invoking God falsely to justify his political miscalculations?
Catholics may not exercise the principle of church discipline or excommunication as often as they should. But at least, in principle, it could be done. In this case, the prophet would simply go off and start another ministry.
Read this prophecy and thank God for apostolic authority in the Catholic Church that can, in principle, say Nay to this “prophet.”

Tell your prophet that if Trump gets elected, he'll only serve 1260 days of his term. So apparently the antichrist works in 3.5 year segments.
the great tribulation begins 3.5 years after the Antichrist "makes a covenant with the many" (Daniel 9:27), in the middle of "Daniel's 70th week." The 70th week is a reference to Daniel 9:24, where each day of the week corresponds to a year (for a total of seven years). After the first 3.5 years, the Antichrist will make himself known with the abomination that causes desolation, and he will reign for 3.5 years (42 months or 1260 days). The latter half of the 3.5 years is characterized by the Antichrist deceiving the world and persecuting the church.

Now that Trump won the primary, he has to pay back the loans he took from himself to fund his race.
So he's looking for corruption/bribe money from big money donors to help him WIN!!
Donald Trump is now accepting the kind of big-money donations he thinks corrupts politicians
by Jeff Stein on May 9, 2016,
Donald Trump, who has spent months decrying politicians who take big money for their campaigns, now says he will accept money from big-dollar donors for the general election.
Trump's team announced last week that he will create a fundraising apparatus that will take big checks from the wealthiest donors to fund a campaign that could cost upward of $1 billion, according to Bloomberg.
"He's done a complete 180," says Josh Stewart, a spokesperson for the Sunlight Foundation, which tracks money in politics. "A central part of Trump's campaign for the nomination was that he was not bought and paid for and would self-fund his campaign. Now, he's going back on that."
In other words, Trump has now become the very kind of candidate he's said he spent decades buying off.
Donald Trump wasn't completely self-funding his campaign, but it was pretty close
Trump's theory of money in politics has always been clear: Wealthy donors pour cash into campaigns, and politicians cut them special deals in exchange once elected.
Since declaring his candidacy, Trump has attacked politicians accepting campaign donations as being bought off by special interests. This message has clearly resonated with primary voters, who have repeatedly listed Trump's financial independence as central to his appeal.
"Their lobbyists, their special interests and their donors will start calling President Bush, President Clinton," Trump has said. "And they’ll say: ‘You have to do it. They gave you a million dollars to your campaign.'"

Fact Checkers Prove That 91% of the Things Donald Trump Says Are False
By Sarah Jones on Thu, Mar 31st, 2016 at 12:05 pm
Donald Trump, the Republican front-runner, is at the bottom of the Politifact list with a sad 9% of true or mostly true statements. Just 9% of the things Donald Trump says are mostly related to the truth.

“God does not work in four-year segments.”...
Once Trump gets out of graduate school, presumably he'll no longer mock people with a disability, unless of course the dude is a white racist neo nazi farmer in which case he gets a pass, even if his deficit is being brain dead at birth.
"The birth of a deformed nation, eh? White Power."

Are you sure that those "videos" are not just more bovine dung and just fabricated by the vast left wing conspiracy network that's funded by billionaire donors?
