The Audacity: Hillary Clinton, Who Kept Classified Information on an Unsecured Server to Hide Her Communications from Congress and the Public, Attacks Trump's Team for Using Signal to Communicate
Hillary Clinton lambasted the Trump administration over its Signal chat leak and repeatedly called its policies "dumb" in a blistering essay published Friday in the New York Times. The former Democratic presidential candidate and secretary of state assailed President Donald Trump and his team as careless and stupid over its short tenure in office so far. "It's not the hypocrisy that bothers me; it's the stupidity. We're all shocked -- shocked! -- that President Trump and his team don't actually care about protecting classified information or federal record retention laws," Clinton wrote.This drunken Satanic sow illegally used her own server so that her communications would be protected from exposure by records retention laws. This was a secret server until someone discovered it -- she did not disclose it so that the federal government could copy all of these messages. She did not disclose it so that people fililng FOIAs would even know what records to request. And she sits her in Her Satanic Hubris and accuses others of using Signal to "avoid records retention" laws. By the way, in case you don't know this, Biden approved the use of Signal for communication precisely because it was more unhackable than the easily-hackable federal systems.
"But we knew that already. What's much worse is that top Trump administration officials put our troops in jeopardy by sharing military plans on a commercial messaging app and unwittingly invited a journalist into the chat. That's dangerous. And it's just dumb." ... Clinton boasted in the Times essay that she employed "smart" power as the first secretary of state under President Barack Obama. "The Trump approach is dumb power. Instead of a strong America using all our strengths to lead the world and confront our adversaries, Mr. Trump's America will be increasingly blind and blundering, feeble and friendless," Clinton wrote. Among Clinton's complaints were the Trump administration's gutting of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), closing embassies and consulates, and layoffs within the government hitting intelligence agencies. Clinton hammered away at the theme that Trump's team was unintelligent, calling various Trump administration moves "not smart," "dumb power," "dumb," and "dumb and dangerous."Cirrhosis isn't just a river in Egypt. Unrelated: Justice Roberts has finally asked a district court judge to respond to Trump's demand to explain where the judge thinks his authority to usurp the president's sole authority to conduct foreign policy comes from. Roberts ordered the court to respond by Tuesday.

For all the critique of Signal, the way I understand it is:
A closed instance of Signal that is only capable of being accessed on government devices.
Which is...not the same as Hillary's email server.

Its interesting that there is no Law, or even Supreme Court Precedent, that says a Judge can order the President around, on POLICY issues.
Yet, somehow, the Government is taking that usurpation of power seriously.

Trump is appealing to the Supreme Court because he lost (2-1) in the DC appeals court trying to vacate the corrupt cocksucker BoASSberg's TRO.
Although Trump lost in the appeals court, it was actually split only 1-1 on the merits, with the third judge taking the customary position that TROs aren't properly appealable.
TROs are extraordinary relief that I've seen only a few times in my entire legal career. These loathsome cocksucking judges have issued more TROs in 4 months than I've seen in 20+ years.

Why are not TROs appealable? Seems like the Petition for redress would apply to Judges orders... or are they above the Constitution?
I understand the excuse that since they are only 'temporary' for 2 weeks, they are AOK... but does the constitution somehow have a delay function?

This is all stray voltage. They wanted to change the subject from DOGE and the massive corruption being uncovered. It seems to be working so they got that calcified drunken wart into the game to keep it going.

Because of the temporary-ness. They're designed to be rare and a pause on action.
Preliminary injunctions, which are appealable, have much longer timelines.
Now, there's room to disagree about the lack of appealability on TROs, but that's just how the system currently works right now. Alito, in his dissent a few weeks ago, obviously disagrees. But it was a dissent, not a ruling opinion.

TROs are appealable, technically, but appeals judges usually defer deciding whether a stay should remain in place until there's a preliminary injunction. The TRO is usually done quickly, with minimal briefing or written decisions. The idea is that the TRO will remain in place for a few weeks until the PI can be more thoroughly decided. Then that decision gets appealed.
TROs are extraordinary relief that I've seen only a few times in my entire legal career. These loathsome cocksucking judges have issued more TROs in 4 months than I've seen in 20+ years.

This is all stray voltage. They wanted to change the subject from DOGE and the massive corruption being uncovered.
Which is funny because for several weeks they thought making DOGE the subject was a winner. Tomorrow is their big Day of Rage Against Tesla if I'm remembering correctly and they've already cut the legs out from under it.

Oh, and a practical matter on TROs being non-appealable:
SCOTUS doesn't want to bother with every TRO that comes along.
They don't want to be roped into every little fight and have to consider things that lower courts should be considering.
But if SCOTUS starts responding directly to TROs, then it opens that door.
If SCOTUS is listening on an appeal to a TRO, then that's actually a much more significant step than people are making this.

Covering Clinton, what is one thing that has surprised you about her?
Amy Chozick: Hmm. She likes to drink. We were on the campaign trail in 2008 and the press thought she was just taking shots to pander to voters in Pennsylvania. Um, no.

Per the COnstitution, as least as I understand it, Congress creates all the inferior courts. Only the Supreme Court is a constitutional body.
And thus it seems that the jurisdiction and rules of procedures should be entirely creations of Congress, which could change them any time it wanted to.

The judiciary is about as popular as dental surgery with the American public. They have way overstepped their constitutional boundaries and have little credibility left. Their power according to the constitution is largely zero. Most of the power they do have comes from Congress, who by the way should get off their asses and get to work.
This notion, which cowards like John Roberts and his liege have let go on for too long, that a bunch of unelected judges can steal power, not just from the president but from the people who elect him, must stop lest it undermine our republic. Every single major issue revolving around our protections afforded by The Bill of Rights has been subverted by the courts. They are the last vestige of the unelected bureaucracy who has brought our country close to ruin.
I say, ignore them. Ignore their feckless rulings and subversive fiats until they decide to take a true constitutional role.

I'm also particularly upset about her cavalier "we came, we saw, he died" comment. Khadaffi (sic) had become, maybe not an ally, but certainly leaning towards the West (no doubt helped by the personal visit he got from F-111's courtesy of Ronald Reagan). After her action it became a complete wreck and no doubt played a part in the Middle East's invasion of Europe. IMO.

So, ipso facto, Waltz is a rat.
This also outlines that executive branch officials should not be communicating on this public app.

In a blistering op-ed in today’s New York Times, Hillary Clinton officially launched her political comeback. The Clinton Express is back for one final mission.
And don’t be naïve. She’s eyeing the 2028 Democratic Party nomination.
It’s a comeback nearly a decade in the making. Ever since losing the 2016 election, the Clintons have been exiled to the political wilderness — just another relic from a long-forgotten era. Indeed, in an age of #MeToo and ideological purity, the Clintons were always a bad fit.
They were like the creepy old guy in the nightclub. Everyone else is 30 years younger, whereas the Clintons were still rocking bellbottom jeans and sideburns:
BILL: Hey, baby! Wanna see the back of my VW van?
GIRL: Eww, no thank you. I don’t have daddy issues.

It was originally a decision to protect "independent" agencies from executive interference (makes me want to vomit), but it first expanded from the original scope of the FCC to include most agencies for a few decades and has been paring back for the last few decades.
I think the caselaw protects something like 3 agencies now. It might be 4.
And the Solicitor General sent a letter to SCOTUS telling them that they're looking to overturn Humphrey's completely.
The circuit decision won't expand Humphrey's, it says directly.

It's become very obvious that this whole "Signal-gate" faux controversy is to keep the Trump admin from using end-to-end encryption text messaging. This wasn't a data-spill, it was espionage. Goldberg's phone number was listed under another person's name.
All the Trump admin has to do is stand strong and tell the Donks to fvkc off. I suspect the probability is approaching 1 that staffer was a Resist mole. Fortunately, Goldberg was too stupid/vain to resist blowing his fraudulent access too soon.
Charge Goldberg with Espionage. Let him fight it out in court.

The nearly half-billion-dollar penalty ordered by the trial judge initially threatened to trigger a financial crisis for Trump. But a New York appeals court sharply reduced the amount of the bond he had to post to avoid immediate enforcement of the verdict. Trump is now asking that same court to toss out the verdict entirely.
During oral arguments on Thursday, some members of the five-judge appeals court panel suggested that New York Attorney General Tish James had overstepped by using the particular New York fraud statute she used to bring the case against Trump

There are some people who seem to think Signal is like Gmail or Outlook or Slack. It’s not. It’s just a secure texting app. It works just like texting: you send messages to an individual phone number or a group of phone numbers. (Signal recently moved to usernames to make the communication more anonymous.)
You sent text, pictures, gifs to your oomfies. It’s not a platform with admins or user-level controls.

Presumably the NSA knows all of the flaws with Signal since they’ve been working to break every commercial-grade crypto system for the last 50 years.

Its interesting that there is no Law, or even Supreme Court Precedent, that says a Judge can order the President around, on POLICY issues.
Yet, somehow, the Government is taking that usurpation of power seriously.

Trump shouldl have told the first one, "No constitutionl authority", "You want appeal my decision on your unconstitutional conduct you appeal it."
TRhe for shits and giggles notify Judge Pakalolo through channels that he is being investigated for 'insurection'... leak it to press.

They definitely need some kind of Check Participants security protocol before they start gabbing, that's for sure.

If the gov’t ran its own fork of Signal-lite, presumably one of the features would require actual authentication that participants are who they say they are, and no ability to initiate chats with people outside the Fed system.

It's the most common type of digital breaking and entering:
Human action.
It's akin to someone opening a secure door and letting in someone not authorized.
You don't blame the door. You blame the guy who held it open.

I agree. I really don't understand why people can't see it was espionage. This is an op to keep the Trump admin from using end-to-end encrypted text messaging.
Hopefully, they stand strong and just tell the Donks to fvck off.

The bottom line is that anyone can and literally anyone to a chat with the highest levels of the US government talking about serious and topics of national security interests and that can't happen going forward.

I don't like that term but for me, it would not humanize her for people to use it. I think she's got major psychological problems and has had for a long time . The only thing that would heal her is probably getting hit by a 2x4 conversion experience by the Lord.

The fact that the White House can't trust any of the IC is a real problem.

>>You are incorrect. There is no such thing as a "mobile SCIF."
Dude, I've built mission critical environments for the FBI and FEMA, which include mobile SCIF platforms.

So, hit by a '2xLord'?

No, you need a completely separate fork and system for this to be used for secure governmental communications.
Again, this is not to slag on our guys because this ridiculous policy pre-dates them, but this situation is ridiculous.
The bottom line is that anyone can and literally anyone to a chat with the highest levels of the US government talking about serious and topics of national security interests and that can't happen going forward.
Posted by: Thomas Bender at March 28, 2025 04:52 PM (XV/Pl)
Exactly. I don’t expect Hegseth and Vance to understand all of the technical minutiae involved, but this was clearly a janky-ass setup. If this was espionage, as Waltz’s statement implies, it should be investigated. Something doesn’t add up, though.

Smart Power. LOL. Or as Trump would say, "Wrong." Yup, that "overcharge" button she handed to Putin really was The Smart. Would like to ask the former US ambassador to Libya. Pretty sure he was diggin' the Smart Power as he was dragged through the streets with an inappropriately placed broomstick. Yup, really smart. We really missed our chances when we fell for the Trump schtick in 2016.

I have so many questions. Is this app running on personal devices? What prevents them from being compromised, which would render all the encryption and access controls moot?

She's younger than Trump. Biden. Pelosi.
This goof allows her to sweep the emails aside.
And she's hoping for inflation and then recession.

She'll be 80 years old during campaign 2028, and 81 when she takes office. Even Harvard students can figure that out.

Smart Power.
Posted by: Mr. Barky
============
That's one of the things those liars do -- to annoying success. Just come up with a term, and voila! Despite everything we know from Jacques Derrida and the whole deconstructivist gang, the term = the thing. She said Smart Power! Therefore, it is power, and it is smart! Kamala Harris said "Joy." Therefore, joy exists in her campaign, and will fill the land when she rules it!
How the hell is "Smart Power" supposed to be any different from any diplomatic style that's ever existed since human societies first came into conflict with each other? Here's the wiki definition:
"the strategic use of diplomacy, persuasion, capacity building, and the projection of power and influence in ways that are cost-effective and have political and social legitimacy"
Real innovation there, Hils.
Smart Power.

This, from one of the team who made "Aw, shucks, I'm not crooked, I',m just stupid" their go-to excuse.

>>Unrelated: Justice Roberts has finally asked a district court judge to respond to Trump's demand to explain where the judge thinks his authority to usurp the president's sole authority to conduct foreign policy comes from.
Or the Judge could just tell Roberts at their Sunday BBQ while swilling martinis.

Sorry for the delay in answering, but I had to leave earlier. We're talking past each other.
What you're calling a mobile SCIF is a trailer or plywood building. It's not really mobile once it's in place.
I was talking about the cell phones. You can't have a cell phone in a SCIF.
I think this was the National Security Team at the White House. They already have SCIFs available.
I'm pretty confident that Goldberg got included within the chat by means of subterfuge. This is a Deep State op to keep them from using end-to-end encrypted text messaging.

The fact that she claims she is ok with hypocrisy is the entire justification for her being able to criticize this event given her use of a private, secret server to hide her email correspondence including classified information.

The "Dumb" thing popular with Hillary and with AOC.
The "Dumbest" or rather the LEAST accomplished person within their field serving in the Trump administration at the moment is. . . . .
The VICE President, and EVERYONE loves JD.
