Clinton email headache is about to get worse

Hillary Clinton’s email headache is about to get even worse.

A scathing inspector general’s report this week was just the first in what is likely to be a series of official actions related to her private server stemming from the FBI, a federal courthouse and Capitol Hill.

In the next few weeks — just as the likely Democratic presidential nominee hopes to pivot towards a general election — it will face its toughest scrutiny yet.

“All of that feeds into this overarching problem of public distrust of her,” said Grant Reeher, a political science professor at Syracuse University.

“To put it in slang terms, she’s got a pretty deeply held street rep at this point. This fits the street rep,” he added.

On Friday, Clinton’s former chief of staff Cheryl Mills was interviewed behind closed doors as part of a court case launched by conservative watchdog Judicial Watch. In coming weeks, longtime aide Huma Abedin, former IT specialist Bryan Pagliano and other officials are scheduled to answer questions under oath for sessions that could last as long as seven hours. 

A federal judge this week preemptively blocked Judicial Watch from releasing videotapes of the upcoming depositions.

But the group this week released the transcript from its first interview, with longtime State Department veteran Lewis Lukens. And it plans to do the same thing following each of the upcoming depositions, providing fodder for weeks to come from some of the closest rings of Clinton’s inner circle.

The court has said that Clinton herself may be forced to answer questions under oath, which would dramatically escalate the brouhaha surrounding the case.

At some point in the next month, the House Select Committee on Benghazi is also set to release its long-awaited report about the 2012 terror attack, which has been linked to Clinton.

What is potentially profoundly more damaging for Clinton is the looming FBI investigation, exploring the possibility that she or her aides mishandled classified information.

Abedin, Mills and other Clinton aides have reportedly been interviewed as part of the FBI case. And Clinton herself is due up for questioning at some point.

But that won’t end the matter.

Republicans appear primed to cry foul if the FBI closes its investigation without handing down indictments or offering a public explanation. Senior lawmakers have already excoriated the Justice Department for failing to appoint a special prosecutor.

Why would she go to prison when she hasn't done anything illegal as far as we know? FBI hasn't released anything yet :sis:

Also considering your deep distrust of the system, what makes you think someone like Hillary would ever get indicted? :sis:

Sis. Even FOX News hasn't gone that far yet. :sis:

"Could be"? :diane: 

The investigation regarding classified emails is still underway. You're being premature in your postings. :diane: 

The rest are all hogwash and conspiracies. :diane: 

When even FOX News can't spin it as breaking the law but Sanders supporters can :diane: 

Should we indict Bernie for his campaign finance violations as well? :diane:

Hillary has never been charged either. Also what? Politicians typically don't get charged or indicted. What are you talking about? :sis:

These threads always get so messy lol. This is a big reason I distrust her. If she can't follow procedure regarding email how can we trust her to do right as president? :sis:
