Hillary Clinton Minion Who Set Up Her Personal Email Server Will Plead The Fifth
Back in early 2014, when IRS director Lois Lerner pleaded the Fifth, it became clear that not all is well with the official story of why the IRS targeted conservative groups, and certainly cast a shadow on Lerner's official excuse involving the disappearance of her countless emails while in a position of power including her explanation that the email server had been destroyed. Subsequent revelations that Lerner had lied about most aspect of the narrative, including the stunning discovery that she had used a private email account under an entirely different and made up alias "Toby Miles" largely confirmed the shorthand conventional wisdom that anyone pleading the Fifth, is if not guilty apriori then certainly hiding critical evidence.
Fast forward to this week when another prominent democrat caught up in another email scandal has just indicated they would plead the Fifth. And no, its not Hillary Clinton, at least not yet, but her former staffer, Bryan Pagliano, who oversaw her private email server. As reported by Politico, he too plans to invoke his Fifth Amendment right not to answer incriminating questions before the House Benghazi Committee, according to a letter his lawyer sent the panel.
Bryan Pagliano with Hillary
Politico has the details:
The panel on Aug. 11 subpoenaed Bryan Pagliano, the go-to technology fixer for Clinton’s home-made server, to testify privately next Thursday about what he knew of the former secretary of state and 2016 Democratic front-runner's email arrangement. The panel also asked for all his documents about the email arrangement.
But in a letter to the committee, his lawyer said he’d take the Fifth to refuse to answer self-incriminating questions, according to a copy obtained by POLITICO. He also is refusing to turn over documents, citing the ongoing FBI investigation.
So wait, there is an ongoing FBI investigation? Didn't Hillary's camp nearly sue the NYT for reporting just this a few weeks ago? Or was that "confidential" information at the time and was only declassified when someone emailed it? Very confusing.
Meanwhile, back to Clinton's latest headache:
“We hope the members of the Select Committee will respect our client’s right to invoke the protections of the Constitution… excuse Mr. Pagliano from personally appearing on September 10, 2015,” reads the letter from attorney Mark MacDougall of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP.
And so another attempt to cover up what in the past would have surely led to indicments begins, only this time it may be difficult to keep it hidden: shortly after the announcement, conservative group Judicial Watch announced it would sue the State Department for his records and all documents that relate to his job at State and his work on the server.
Who is Pagliano?
Pagliano, Clinton’s 2008 campaign IT director who followed her to the State Department, was originally on salary for Clinton’s Senate leadership PAC. He personally helped set up the Clinton email system in the spring of 2009, an arrangement inspired by a home-based server Bill Clinton used in their Chappaqua, New York residence, according toa Washington Post report from last month.
At the State Department, Pagliano continued to manage the server, occasionally being called in to fix it when technology went awry.
In 2013, after Clinton left Foggy Bottom, so did he, for the private sector. The server, now found to have dozens of emails containing classified information and currently in the hands of the FBI, would pass to Platte River Networks, a Denver-based mom-and-pop shop that at one point in time stored some servers in a bathroom closet, according to theDaily Mail.
It is still unclear why or how the Denver company was selected.
Actually, it rather is.
As for Pagliano pleading the Fifth to avoid "self-incrimination", Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton said it best: "Mrs. Clinton’s argument that her ‘server’ was private fails on many levels, especially if Mr. Pagliano, a State Department employee, was paid by taxpayers to take care of it,” said group President Tom Fitton in a statement. “We must wonder if Mr. Pagliano has emails from the Clinton server.”
But the far more relevant question is how will the US public respond to the clearest indication yet that something very material is being hidden from not only the US public, but Congress itself. With Hillary suddenly fading fast in the polls she may need a quick answer before her entire campaign is obliterated by scandal after ever greater scandal.

Hah ha ha ha ha ha
Just another day with dishpan hands
(The look on her face is priceless! The smile and eyes. Am I the only one who sees that as vapid, empty of all empathy?)
The IT guy who set up the e-mail server for Clinton has done nothing illegal, so if he pleads the Fifth, the Congress should give him immunity and force him to testify.
The Clinton-bitch is finished. She should get some pointers from Martha Stewart on how to survive in jail. ;-)
Looney
I got it! He was Linda Green in his prior job. Explains everything!
Someone who knows how really needs to make a Joker Face of her, like was done with Bush Jr. and Obama.
Feel free to send Bryan a message, and give him your support.

All of these parasites demand abolishment of our First and Second Amendments ... but not a peep out of them about nullifying the Fifth!
Hitlery will probabaly have him suicided...that fucker better be watching his back for years to come. They'll get him when and where he least expects it eventually.
More sense then to go after her first. Pack heat everywhere you go, don't take any flights, drive an old car & get a food taster.
I think Hillary's sponsors are waiting for the point where they can throw Obama under the bus. It was sugested that there was endorsment of her behaviour from above
And like Bruce, decided to keep his penis.
ole keg legs is the face of evil and the embodiment.
if he talks, he'll be Vince Fostered
What that obvious Criminal Cunt, her Criminal husband, the Criminals Bushes & Obama deserve is to be arrested, tried, convicted & executed for Treason, Crimes Against Humanity & Crimes Against The American People.
Hang those Psychopaths upside down, slice their throats, watch them drown in their own sadistic blood while being simultaneously set on fire in public for deterrence & all the world to see.
So how does this work. Does Hildabeast get secret service protection in prison?
On second thought, she might need protection from the secret service. Those boys probably itching to smack that bitch around like a pinata.
Oh the humanity;)
Made my day.
When you mentioned giving him immunity for sure you just gave Boehner a heart attack.
Disagree. Almost certainly he knowingly was planted in State dept. IT to be the conduit for the classified info to be routed to the private server, or at least to deflect any difficult questions that regular IT staff might raise. It is likely he designed the whole thing, since the server was in place essentially on inauguration day, and he was implanted as her mole within a couple of months. This was planned and executed to specifically avoid FOIA, subpoenas, open records and archiving. As such, it is a full on conspiracy to commit multiple, ongoing felonies, and he likely architected the "solution."
But yeah, give him immunity so he can sing, and then head for witness protection, lest he have an Arkansas Accident.
She should be in jail right now, she has clearly broken the law.
18 US 2071 covers the email/document stuff during her time at the State Department, wait until they find all the bribe money emails linked to foreign nationals "donating" money to her foundation in exchange for influence and business deals all while holding a public office on the tax payer dime.
*spits* in that bitches general direction...
18 U.S. Code § 2071 - Concealment, removal, or mutilation generally
Would be funny if true...
Hacker claims to have Hillary Clinton's emails for sale, reports indicate unlikely
The Fifth?...Oh, so NOW there is the Bill of Rights?????
Bill of rights only when convienent....but for the rest of us , FUCK YOU
Why would anyone do otherwise when talking to a group of statist thugs? Regardless of what he did or did not do he's smart to just keep his trap shut.
Guilty by association. He is a statist thug.
They need to start indicting people, and grant immunity if they rat the goods on Hillary.
Can you grant immunity from an accidental nailgun discharge to the back of the head?
Word is some people are cooperating with the FBI in the server/email investigation.
I see more than that. My avatar may be that of a Sith Lord, but I believe she is a living, breathing Sith. Pure evil.
"Always two of them there are, a Master and Apprentice."
The Japanese androids have better smile programming. If she raises her eyebrows any higher her eyeballs will pop out and roll around on the floor. Contrast with the two "normal" people on either side. You can see she is in "the consultants said I need to SMILE more" mode.
Sanpaku eyes. Have a gander at spree killer portraits.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanpaku
Handy diagram on Google images.
A more western, scientific approach: when smiling genuinely, the eyes involuntarily squint. No such phenomenon in the above pic. Sadly, no one in her camp has told her to think about stomping on flowers or drowning puppies when she takes a photo.
She's fully schooled in the Nancy Pelosi Crazed Botox style of acting. Flowers and puppies? How about Bobbitting Bill? That should produce true glee.
Actually she looks like someone goosed her with those bugged out eyes. Perhaps the only way for her to form any facial expression. This is challenging for a reptile.
Miffed;-)
Fif!
Wait... Hillary paid an American worker to maintian her server?
That's damn suspicious right there.
Oh, I see... she just 'borrowed' a taxpayer-funded State Department employee for a little side work. Hillary - that's a stench that NO soap is going to wash off.
Suspicious, you say? That's bleeping absurd. Pay an American worker? That would be proof she's lost her mind.
Which one is Pagliano? It is impossible to know for sure these days?
It's xe, right there.
"Not Guilty. Next!"...
Of course he is....he has seen what happens to "rats" that drop dime and roll on the Clintonazi's.
I'd like to exercise my rights under that Constitution thingy......
Was he on the government payroll at the time? If yes then he does not have any right to remain silent as to the duties he carried out while in the employ of the people. Every officer of the court knows this.
Nope.
Ask Lois, doesn't she work for Goldman now?
Dave Chappelle FTMFW on this one. Instant classic. Right up there with South Park's "And, its gone." ha ha.
One of the best Chappelle...Black Bush

Funny shit. That version is cut short. The full version is low quality.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7T9gicSnR0
If they want to, they can grant immunity, and force you to talk. If you don't, they can hold you in contempt. They have used it on "mobsters" before
But these people are not mobsters. They're public servants.
(yanking on pud some more)
But these people are not mobsters. They're public servants.
LOL! That's some funny shit there, knukles!
Hey knucks, What we are witnessing is a statist version of la coas nostra...They are mobsters and they have some very very scary enforcers, and some even scarier consigliari
Keep yankin',
;-D
He'd have to lie to avoid being Arkancided.
That's exactly what's going on. He's been threatened by the Clinton mafia, and he knows nothing can save him from them.
Anybody with half a brain that decides to work for Hillrey as "IT Director" has gotta know that going in. It's astonishing that there are apparently still "voters" that are "undecided" about Hillrey.
Undecided? This shit has been going on for 40 years!
Clinton is technology stupid, her minions setup it up for her to claim plausible deniability and they plead da fif.
It's an old trick and works most of the time but the games changed, people are genuinely pissed off about all the lies and corruption that infest our governemt.
Hellary Servergate stories make my pee pee hard
He is an accessory to the act.
They won't force him to go State's Evidence.
No he will plead the fifth and they will let him.
I wonder what the other candidates have to say about government employees taking the fifth in regaurds to there duties. Take note boys none of them will properly address that topic on this stage. It goes right to holding government accountable at any level. Sadly but clearly by sidestepping it shows the true colors of the lot of em.
If any honest outsider was running that Lois Learner thing would need to be addressed first. No?
His pinnacle of sipping wine spritzer, wearing a turtleneck, and posing with redneck royalty, represents my darkest nightmare.
I think they may have photoshopped out the extended pinky...
I think I am becoming allergic to people like that. Makes me want to blurt out stuff that my wife would later want to slap me for.
I think a new disorder should be named. A form of Turrets Syndrome that is externally induced by the presence of human parasites.
The new Clinton BS will be that they don't know the difference between "wipe" and "scrub".
Will she last to Iowa and New Hampshire
Her "campaign" will wither for lack of interest.
Carly certainly takes the steam out of that "First Woman President" nonsense. She's got a lock on "First Ultra-Left Woman President" though. That may be what the ladies want. If a "doctor" can legally take a Roto-Rooter to the womb it puts a whole lot of them on cloud nine. "Women's health" I think it's called.
Personally, I find her having conversations with Eleanor Roosevelt a tad disturbing. If Huckabee said he talks to Jesus the scribblers would go into a nut roll, but her talking to a dead social justice warrior makes all kinds of sense.
Such are our times.
No one is winning anything with 55% unapproval rating. You can't even steal it wit that loathing.
By the way, whatever happened to that cunt Lerner? Shouldn't she be rotting away in some prison? Oh, right! Forgot prison is only for the common folk.
Lerner is now a teacher.
You have to buy your own lock picking tools before you can register though.
of what?
Lerner teaches how to plead fif to H's people and evade.
So if this works anything like lLaw and Order : they put this techie guys balls in a vice and he rolls on his boss
Dont see how he can not turn over evidence. Will he go to Jail for her like John Dean and crew did for Nixon
The buffoon in the video is more serious than Hillary in regard to national security. I believe Hillary's actions were 100% intentional. Where was oversight and law enforcement as it was occurring. Similar to the IRS targeting citzens were not of the same political slant as the leftist Washington bureaucracy, Washington's leftist bureaucracy allowed it to occur - essentially condoning it. This is corruption at its worst.
It is said that perjury is such a serious crime because it hides all other crimes. It is the same with claimed ineptness. The guise of inexperience is the veil concealing other crimes.
Hillary looks to have committed numerous crimes. We'll see if the law is carried out in regard to Hillary as it would be for the average citizen.
And the 'top' news outlets that claim to bring us all the news sit silent on the issue. Disgusting.
Do a FOIA to the FBI for "server" + "email" + "Clinton" before this email thing hit the news.
They will find a more low level stooge to take the fall for this, like the janitor. You are personally protected if you are only one degree of separation from people like Hillary, Dimon, Blankfein, etc.
The IRS case gets worse all the time. Prosecutions need to start flying. Total abuse of power. This is Watergate and the press is asleep and complicit.
On another topic, I wonder if Anthony Weiner and Bill Clinton go out together to pick up underage chicks while their wives are committing national security crimes? And their only competition on the Dem side is a commie? The country turned down Mitt Romney for these people???
In need of some normalcy soon. Maybe the Fed can start QE again...
A racket is a service that is fraudulently offered to solve a problem, such as for a problem that does not actually exist, that will not be put into effect, or that would not otherwise exist if the racket did not exist. Conducting a racket is racketeering.[1] Particularly, the potential problem may be caused by the same party that offers to solve it, although that fact may be concealed, with the specific intent to engender continual patronage for this party. An archetype is the protection racket, wherein a person or group indicates that they could protect a store from potential damage, damage that the same person or group would otherwise inflict, while the correlation of threat and protection may be more or less deniably veiled, distinguishing it from the more direct act of extortion.
The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, commonly referred to as the RICO Act or simply RICO, is a United States federal law that provides for extended criminal penalties and a civilcause of action for acts performed as part of an ongoing criminal organization. The RICO Act focuses specifically on racketeering, and it allows the leaders of a syndicate to be tried for the crimes which theyordered others to do or assisted them, closing a perceived loophole that allowed a person who instructed someone else to, for example, murder, to be exempt from the trial because he did not actually commit the crime personally.
Punish them to the fullest extent of the law.
I'd like a fifth, too.
Hopefully she gets assigned to Rowan County with cellmate Kim Davis for the duration (that should be on pay-for-view). Kim ranting 24/7 on H would be precious.
Give the maggot immunity then burn the bitch DOWN!!
Infowars had on some CIA operatives who say under Hillary State Dept was running the guns to ISIS and C-130's were taking huge amounts there, including 400 stinger S/A missiles.
They were flying them from Libya to Syria. Libya war was almost cover for getting the arms into MENA to go to Syria. Amb Stevens was not aware of it until near the end. He was sending out alarm bells to Sate Dept when he realized what was going on and he got snuffed to keep from blowing the lid off the scandal. Unknown if Clinton got money directly from the arms sales or backdoor from Saudis to Clinton foundation.
#Hillary for Prison
Pravda ran an article before Amb Stevens was killed that sort of detailed the same thing. Weapons supplied to Libya, re-purchased from the Libyans, shipped to Turkey, then supplied to the Syrian opposition. The Syrian army captured a stinger missile, the Pravda journalist took pictures of US manufactured plates on the Stinger.
Clinton, Inc. threatened this cat, no doubt.
I could be wrong, but isn't it the 6th amendment Clinton's minions plead? Isn't it the one where they plead, "I refuse to answer the following questions on the grounds it may tend to eliminate me"
Filthy fifth
Any person in the employ of the government, directly or indirectly, who refuses to divulge ALL information immediately, should be tortured to death in public as slowly and painfully as possible - this is what I would have done to them, ends this problem very quickly.
Imagine how emboldened the criminals in all levels ofgovernment will be if they get away scott-free on this one...The more secure they feel in their power, the greater the horror of their acts.
A loyal fool and useful idiot.
Hillary will throw him under the bus in a heartbeat if it will somehow diminsih her culpability.
If Pagliano could check her most recent emails, I bet he would see evidence of that too.
If he has two brain cells to rub together he will get his own lawyer. Relying on a Clinton-supplied attorney is beyond stupid.
That weeping Va JJ will never even face the legal process. Meanwhile, our fascist fedcoat state has arrested the Christian County Clerk. I renounce any pledge to defend a fascist state.
Coundn't figure that one out either. Eric Holder only enforced the laws he felt like enforcing; why not the Kentucky clerk? Is Holder in jail? I don't think so.
Give the guy use immunity and then threaten to jail him w/ contempt charges if he doesn't answer questions. Problem solved. I seriously dount the guy woke up one day with the intent to commit a felony, and god knows Mrs. Satan sure does.
Love how the candleholder in the background of the pic looks like a pitchfork.
The Fifth Amendment thing was just one of the living parts of that Constitution thing, which was a living document.
But, it was sort of like an "appendix" or "wisdom teeth". Not something that was really needed anymore.
The guy came from Hillary's failed campaign and was hired by the State Department's IT section just before Hillary became Secretary of State and left the State Department about the same time that Hillary resigned and now works for another firm that has a State Department contract. So what is so much more important at his new firm than rejoining the new Hillary campaign?
Well, they didn't give Lois Lerner immunity after she took the 5th to force her testimony and she is collecting a fat pension and walking her doggie every day in her high-dollar neighborhood.
Ok, Blame the "cable guy"...
http://static.rogerebert.com/uploads/movie/movie_poster/the-cable-guy-19...
Methinks he pleads thwe 5th.. walks away...gets a job at Clinton Foundation... managing the servers. 'cause he knows his sheeeet !
I'd guess his comp will bearound $500 / yr at the "Foundation".
1,2,3,4,FIF!
It is not a friggin 5th amendment right. It is a prohibition against the government to force someone to testify against oneself. Damn the people are IGNORANT!
Explain please.
Read the amendment. Who is it talking to? The government. The whole thing is like a corporate charter. Talks to the entity that is being established. The declaration of independence tells you where your rights come from.
It depends on if he was on the payroll at the time.
So, downvoter, exactly how am I wrong???
If he did his job as a Civil Service employee ethically and in accordance with laws and regulations he wouldn't need to plead the 5th and he wouldn't need a lawyer.
