It is wholly irresponsible to sweep Russian interference with US elections in 2016 under the table. Vladimir Putin stated he wanted Trump to win a presidential election in 2016 while he knew nothing about him except he was a rich guy. 

Today, Paul Ryan states interference in elections is common practice by Russia. It seems to me the US Congress has an obligation to end that practice by Russia. Sanctions are only one way to end these practices. Sanctions have had minimal effect as exampled by the 2016 elections. The US Congress needs to hold a security summit with all US allies to bring about resolve TO RETURN THE VOTE TO THE VOTER without exception!

Donald Trump held a two hour secret meeting with Vladimir Putin. THAT is a threat to the USA national security. Pence is blowing smoke in his propaganda about America first with Trump.

Fox News is speculating about a grand jury due to Strzok and Page emails, etc. favoring Hillary Clinton’s emails  and the lack of prosecution. The USA doesn’t need more partisan measures. 

I have stated over and over on this blog there were LAWS LACKING to govern such activity. Former Secretary Clinton, no different than President Obama, are among the first elected officials to indulge the use of electronic communications. Wired communications are different than emails. Wired communications are already secured. Emails and text were new to USA national security by elected officials. There is no there there to seek a grand jury. There were no laws or protocols at that time to govern those using such communications.

Former Secretary Clinton is a prime example of a patriot who got caught up in a paradigm shift involving a new technology without laws for governance. She has been the First Lady of Arkansas, First Lady of the USA, a lawyer, a young woman in service to children as her first passion as a lawyer, she went on to be Secretary of State and a dedicated woman to attempt to shatter the last, hardest and highest glass ceiling  in the USA. She has tried twice to win the nomination for President and once to win the presidency. She never had national security concerns until the use of emails and texts became an acceptable way of communication between government officials. 

Hillary Clinton is the wife of a Former USA President. She used a server within her private residence. She was used to a grest deal of national security in her everyday life. It never occurred to her emails would be the issue it became. Her responsibilities regarding such technology issue were left to other professionals including private attornies. She is completely guiltless of any wrong doing in regard to any emails OF ANY KIND any time of her life. 

Mr. Strzok had a very easy assessment about the Forner Secretary Clinton and her emails and server that was given to an IT professional to care for and store. We all know about the storage of the Clinton server. That only goes further to prove the lack of laws and policy regarding the technology at the time.

There is no way the government has a case against Mr. Strzok and Ms. Page. I will caution the idea that there is actually a remote case against these two well educated and practiced agents, in that the federal government had bled it’s finest professionals under the Trump presidency and the more the mistreatment of intelligence officers exist the fewer and fewer people will see these agencies as a career option.

There was no bias by Mr. Strzok or Ms Page in face of their personal political passions.

Enough is enough.
