So what happens if Hillary doesn't turn over her server

[MoonRiver]

to the House Thugs by 4/3? She didn't break any laws and is no longer an employee of the U.S. government. I think this is all grandstanding.

1. Of course it's grandstanding, but...

it is interesting to wonder what would happen if she just effectively said "fuck you-- you can't have it".

Perhaps we'll see what will happen.

2. Gowdy just requested it

I don't think it carries any legal weight.

The State Department, Clinton and 10 of her staffers are already under a subpoena request for documents the former secretary of state turned over to the agency, but that request does not force her to turn over the server stored in her New York home. Clinton has until March 27 to respond to the subpoena request from the Benghazi Committee for documents relating to Libya.

Give them the old Doc Brown treatment!

5. Time for an old fashioned Washington DC Document Dump

A document dump is the act of responding to an adversary's request for information by presenting the adversary with a large quantity of data that is transferred in a manner that indicates unfriendliness, hostility, or a legal conflict between the transmitter and the receiver of the information. The shipment of dumped documents is unsorted, or contains a large quantity of information that is extraneous to the issue under inquiry, or is presented in an untimely manner, or some combination of these three characteristics. The phrase is often used by lawyers, but is in increasing use in the blogosphere. It is often seen as part of the characteristic behavior of an entity that is engaging in an ongoing pattern of activities intended to cover up unethical or criminal conduct.

The practice has seen use by both sides of the political spectrum. Conservatives accused members of the Clinton Administration of document dumps during the investigation of the 1996 United States campaign finance controversy. One such dump included, among other things, 1,000 sheets of blank paper, 35 copies of the résumé of Charlie Trie, and a copy of the menu from his restaurant in Little Rock, Arkansas.[3]

6. This is a pitfall of using a personal email service for State Department business.

She may have to comply.

[MoonRiver]

7. Why?

[Maedhros]

8. Official State Department emails could be the subject of a legal records hold

pursuant to an investigation.

[MoonRiver]

10. Investigation of what? Benghazi?

[Maedhros]

11. Regardless of the frivolous nature of the investigation, if a warrant or subpoena is issued

for the email records she will likely be required to provide them.

[MoonRiver]

12. If she choose to, I'm sure her lawyers could block that bogus subpoena.

But, whatever, this latest witch hunt will go on and on, even if they get the server. And it's not just Hillary. If she isn't our nominee they will turn on whomever it is. That's what these scum do.

13. Until he actually issues a subpoena, this is all showboating. nt

15. Nothing

This is private property and he has no right to this server
