7th Floor Group - "Shadow Government", according to FBIIn the course of the Hillary email investigation by the FBI, a number of startling discoveries were made. On top of rampant corruption and rather candid discussions on politics (the infamous speech about sausage being made at a wallstreet conference "“You just have to sort of figure out how to — getting back to that word, ‘balance’ — how to balance the public and the private efforts that are necessary to be successful, politically, and that’s not just a comment about today,” she said. She added: “Politics is like sausage being made. It is unsavory, and it always has been that way, but we usually end up where we need to be. But if everybody’s watching all of the back-room discussions and the deals, then people get a little nervous, to say the least. So you need both a public and a private position.”), according to the FBI there was a secret "Shadow organization" operating in the government, attempting to obstruct the investigation and release of the emails to the public. (
Page 56) ""There was a powerful group of very high-ranking STATE officials that some referred to as 'The 7th Floor Group' or 'The Shadow Government.' This group met every Wednesday afternoon to discuss the FOIA process, Congressional records, and everything CLINTON-related to FOIA/Congressional inquiries," This is according to the FBI database. Furthermore it expands on how they were trying to influence policy in the government and the investigation in to them specifically but that the FBI managed to thwart it.
""Normally, with larger FOIA requests, such has with the CLINTON-related FOIA request, IPS would schedule a
rolling release---that meant every weeks or month, the properly reviewed and approved material would be made public. However [Name redacted], and the 7th floor group argued that the release should be all at once in January 2016, for coordination purposes. While IPS official did not have control of the release process of the 296 emails related to the house select committee on Benghazi's request, they did have control for the release process for the approximately 30,000 emails, or 52,455 pages related to the CLINTON FOIA request, and it was decided to be a rolling release." This is subtle, but the implications are important. Basically, they wanted to release the information all at once and rush the information. The problem is that reviewing emails take time, and forcing a rushed release would prevent future emails from being released, which means that if they found something new, ti wouldn't be viable for prosecution or public release. They could either delay the release by several years to make sure FBI officials got it right all at once, or not allow them to release future information if it cropped up. A rather sly tactic, sort of like rushing a trial before all the investigation can be completed and not being capable of being tried for the same crime twice. The organization has been accused of obstructing justice, multiple times, and several of it's members have rather strange connections to different groups, like snapchat, or
Cheryll Mills who oversaw the prosecution of Hillary and simply chose not to prosecute, interestingly enough being paid 198,000 dollars by the Clintons and receiving
immunity after this was exposed. Hmm... "She worked for no pay in those first months at the State Department, and was officially designated as a "temporary expert-consultant",
which allowed her to continue receiving outside income while serving as Clinton's Chief of Staff. On her financial disclosure forms, she reported $198,000 in income from NYU in 2009, during the period her university work overlapped with her time at the State Department, and that she collected an additional $330,000 in vacation and severance payments when she left the university’s payroll in May 2009.[20] Additionally, Mills remained on the Clinton Foundation’s unpaid board for a short time after joining the State Department." So the chief prosecutor botched the trial, was paid off, and given immunity for their actions. Seems like the legitimate work of the justice department at play.
Members of the 7th floor group included
Patrick Kennedy (congressmen and cousin to John F. Kennedy),
John Kerry (congressmen and runner-up to George Bush in the 2004 presidential election), Jonathen Finer (
Chief of Staff and Director of Policy Planning at the U.S. Department of State), Heather Higginbottom ( United States Secretary of State after John kerry, now leader of charity CARE), Julia Friefield (Assistant Secretary for Legislative Affairs),
Roberta. S. Jacobson (diplomat and assistant secretary of state), and
Juliassa Reynoso (lawyer, diplomat). Other notable members include Jennifer Stout (now
leader of the snapchat global public policy), Cheryll Mills (given partial
immunity in the hillary email case, essentially the fall-girl who got immunity, like when Bill Clinton pardoned
Susan McDougal in the whitewater scandal), and
Huma Aberdeen, wife of known sexual abuser
Anthony Wiener and the individual who ran the Clinton email account. Bizarrely these people seem connected to large social media companies, including snapchat (a convenient way to gather data on people) and Facebook, which is worrisome to say the least.
Jacob Sullivan was an individual responsible for up to 1/3 of the classified messages released by September 2015. John Finer, Patrick Kennedy, Hillary Clinton, and John Kerry were all candidates who felt maligned about their own failed presidential runs, and therefore wanted to secure things behind the scenes to ensure they won they presidency next time.
The
Clinton's have a long history of pardoning or granting immunity to people that cover for them, such as convicted ***** and Democrat Congressmen Mel Reynolds, who was the bank for the money laundering scandal the democrats faced while Bill Clinton was in office. Mel Reynolds, a Democratic Congressman from Illinois, was convicted of bank fraud,
12 counts of sexual assault of a child, obstruction of justice, and solicitation of child pornography. His sentence was commuted on the bank fraud charge and he was allowed to serve the final months under the auspices of a halfway house. Reynolds had served his entire sentence on child sex abuse charges before the commutation of the later convictions. Marc Rich, a fugitive who had fled the U.S. during his prosecution, was residing in Switzerland. Rich owed $48 million in taxes and was charged with 51 counts of tax fraud, was pardoned of tax evasion. He was required to pay a $1 million fine and waive any use of the pardon as a defense against any future civil charges that were filed against him in the same case. Critics complained that Denise Eisenberg Rich, his former wife, had made substantial donations to both the Clinton library and to Mrs. Clinton's senate campaign. According to Paul Volcker's independent investigation of Iraqi Oil-for-Food kickback schemes, Marc Rich was a middleman for several suspect Iraqi oil deals involving over 4 million barrels (640,000 m3) of oil. On his last day in office, Bill Clinton pardoned or commuted the sentences of several hundred people, including Puerto Rican terrorists and fellow congressmen, and in particular a large number of human and cocaine smugglers. From Cheryill mills to Huma aberdeen, pardons, immunity, or simply not investigating crimes has been the MO to avoid serious jail time, for people connected to their organization. When they "chose not
to prosecute" Clinton despite the actions technically being a crime, it shouldn't have been a surprise to anyone. With this kind of access to the state department and justice department, you could get off for almost anything. Including 12 counts of sexual assault on a minor, apparently.
While corruption in politics is not new per say, the depth of corruption, and connection human traffickers, smugglers, rapists, and the judges and lawyers that were supposed to be prosecuting them raises a lot of eyebrows. The damage is not just getting away with the email leaks, but rather their involvement when everyone up to and including rapists, terrorists, smugglers, and numerous cases of fraud. The emails also revealed connections to Saudi Arabia,
Qatar and
China, who donated millions of dollars to their clinton foundation network, and by proxy their campaign. China also received
advanced missile technology information, given to them by none other than Bill Clinton. Harvey weinstein was a big donor to both
Obama and
Clinton, and is now enthralled in a massive sexual abuse scandal, along with
Kevin Spacey, and now
NXIVM, the sex cult which targeted insecure woman as a part of a "self-help" group and used celebrities to get people's attention, and then forced them in to horrific acts of sexual torture, including branding them with a hot poker for hours and other despicable acts, including hacking their emails.
