U.S. appeals court revives Clinton email suit In a new legal development on the controversy over former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's emails, an appeals court on Tuesday reversed a lower court ruling and said two U.S. government agencies should have done more to recover the emails. The ruling from Judge Stephen Williams, of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, revives one of a number of legal challenges involving Clinton's handling of government emails when she was secretary of state from 2009 to 2013. Clinton, the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee, used a private email server housed at her New York home to handle State Department emails. She handed over 55,000 emails to U.S. officials probing that system, but did not release about 30,000 she said were personal and not work related. The email case shadowed Clinton's loss to Republican Donald Trump in the Nov. 8 presidential election. Trump, who had repeatedly said during the bruising campaign that if elected he would prosecute Clinton, said after the election he had no interest in pursuing investigations into Clinton's email use. While the State Department and National Archives took steps to recover the emails from Clinton's tenure, they did not ask the U.S. attorney general to take enforcement action. Two conservative groups filed lawsuits to force their hand. A district judge in January ruled the suits brought by Judicial Watch and Cause of Action moot, saying State and the National Archives made a "sustained effort" to recover and preserve Clinton's records. But Williams said the two agencies should have done more, according to the ruling in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. Since the agencies neither asked the attorney general for help nor showed such enforcement action could not uncover new emails, the case was not moot. © AP Photo/Matt Rourke, File FILE - In this July 8, 2016, file photo Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton speaks in Philadelphia. "The Department has not explained why shaking the tree harder - e.g., by following the statutory mandate to seek action by the Attorney General - might not bear more still," Williams wrote. "Absent a showing that the requested enforcement action could not shake loose a few more emails, the case is not moot." The State Department does not comment on pending litigation, a spokesperson said. Williams noted that Clinton used two nongovernmental email accounts at State and continued using the Blackberry account she had while a U.S. senator during her first weeks as the nation's U.S. diplomat. She only switched to the email account hosted on her private server in March 2009, the ruling said. "Because the complaints sought recovery of emails from all of the former Secretary’s accounts, the FBI's recovery of a server that hosted only one account does not moot the suits, the judge wrote. msn.com (Reporting by Doina Chiacu; Editing by Kevin Drawbaugh and Leslie Adler)

Here you go Geno.....specially for you! Seek help! Do You Know Someone Suffering From Trump Understanding Resistance Disorder (TURD)? Know the Signs, Spot the Symptoms, Save a Life Trump Understanding Resistance Disorder is a pattern of pathologically dis-associative and psychotic behavior, first observed in the late hours of November 8, 2016, and increasing in severity with passing time. Sufferers of TURD often exhibit pronounced cognitive dissonance, sudden bouts of rage, uncontrollable crying, suicidal ideas, and extreme butt-hurt. Signs and Symptoms: People with Trump Understanding Resistance Disorder are characterized by a persistent unwillingness to accept that Donald Trump is going to Make America Great Again. Individual sufferers often display signs of paranoia and delusion; in acute cases psychotic episodes have been observed. Trump Understanding Resistance Disorder is different from being upset about the results of the 2016 presidential election. People with TURD are unwilling or unable to accept reality, despite irrefutable evidence. According to the CDC, individuals with TURD exhibit most or all of the following symptoms: - Telling others they are moving to Canada - Fixated on fantasies about the Electoral College - Protesting an election no credible source contests the outcome of - Exclamations that “Someone” should do “Something” - Sudden weight gain - Acute change in demeanor from pompous and arrogant to fearful and combative - Claim that anyone who disagrees with them is some combination of Racist, Sexist, Bigoted, Homophobic, and Actually Hitler Causes and Mechanisms: Trump Understanding Resistance Disorder was directly caused by the election of Donald Trump as President of the United States. For many both in America and worldwide, this was a shocking and unexpected outcome. Their preferred news sources failed to inform them that the alternative candidate was a criminal parasite in such ill health she got chucked into the back of a van like a kidnap victim. Research is ongoing, but TURD appears to correlate closely with the following environmental and behavioral factors: - Membership in the Democratic party - Identifying as a Feminist - Identifying as a Union member - Currently enrolled in college, and/or - Possession of a Liberal Arts college degree - Cuckoldry - Living in a densely populated metropolitan area - Massive student debt - Spotty or non-existent work history - Hipster-ism Diagnosis: Diagnosis of Trump Understanding Resistance Disorder is straightforward. Ask the patient if Donald Trump is going to be the Next President of the United States of America. Some patients will become agitated, and may attempt to deflect. It’s critical you press them on the issue, even if they start babbling about ‘muh triggers’. A sufferer of TURD will begin to ramble incoherently, often displaying three or more of the symptoms within a short period of time. Co- morbidity: A diagnosis of Trump Understanding Resistance Disorder is highly co-morbid with Infantilism, Emotional Eating, Autism Spectrum, Bush Derangement Syndrome, and adult bed wetting. Treatment: The only known effective treatment is exposure therapy. The patient must be repeatedly exposed to reality, and should wear a Make America Great Again hat as long as they are able to tolerate it. Each exposure should increase in length, after a week the patient should be encouraged to be seen in public wearing the MAGA hat. Coach the patient to refer to Donald Trump as President-Elect Trump, and then smile. Patients with TURD are very resistant to treatment, and dangerous in large groups. Any possibility of treatment requires that they be separated from their hive-mind support apparatus; they cannot begin the process of accepting reality in the presence of encouragement towards delusion and irrationality. Separation may require the assistance of law enforcement. If you have a friend or loved one suffering from TURD, urge them to seek treatment immediately.
