Run Hillary Run! for Mayor of Cedar Hills – Part 1

Written By: admin - Mar• 05•15

If indeed Hillary Clinton has self-destructed her run for the White House, maybe she could move to Cedar Hills and run for Mayor?  She would fit right in!

 

Compare these two headlines from 2015 and 2012:

 

2015 – Using Private Email, Hillary Clinton Thwarted Record Requests

2012 – Mayor withholds his emails from City Records

May 24, 2012 – this Cedar Hills Citizens for responsible government website reported…   http://www.cedarhillscitizens.org/mayor-withholds-his-emails-from-city-records-and-3-employee-resignation-contracts-now-public/

 

It seems to CHCRG that CH’s small town government has proven to be a microcosm of much that happens in the national news.

A series of articles with links below highlight Hillary Clinton’s apparent efforts to hide her actions as Secretary of State from the public record by using a private email account and her own private server from her home, and not providing those records to government control as required.  (This same kind of thing happened in Cedar Hills in 2012 when then Mayor Eric Richardson did ALL of his city business on his personal email account and wouldn’t provide it to the city recorder.)

F.O.I.A. requests (Freedom of Information Act, or GRAMA as they’re known in Utah) were ignored by Ms. Clinton and went unfulfilled, until 4 lives were lost in Benghazi and Congress convened hearings asking for testimony and all documentation including the emails.

That’s when the fact that ALL Clinton’s communications were done on her private email account, though she was warned against it.  She only provided information to Congress she wanted to, and hid behind her perceived personal privilege managing what and when records were provided to or kept by the government as required.  It appears Clinton believes that she is above the law.  Sound familiar to CH residents?  (Note:  Many GRAMA requested records in CH have been withheld from the GRAMA request by the claim of “attorney client privilege” as recommended by city attorney Eric Johnson.  No known direct relation to outgoing Attorney General Eric Holder.)

Utah’s own Rep. Jason Chaffetz, Chairman of the Subcommittee on National Security, Homeland Defense and Foreign Operations prevailed this week, as Clinton’s highly unethical activity was finally exposed by the New York Times.  (see below)

Hillary Clinton may have self-sabotaged her well-known ambitions to take the White House in 2016.  Charges against her could include destruction of government records, bribery, illegal campaign contributions, and possibly treason.  She has apparently self-destructed, before her campaign for President could officially begin.

But, good news, if we try hard enough we might be able to convince her to move to Cedar Hills and run for Mayor.  We believe she would feel very comfortable based on the withholding of public records strategies promoted by recent Cedar Hills mayors.

And if perhaps Clinton is convicted and serves prison time, no problem, as the Mayor and Council will probably vote her some sweetheart deal to manage and personally profit by running the Cedar Hills golf course!  We could rename it “The Clinton Clubhouse”.

If you, dear reader, are interested in helping to fix Washington DC, you can start by fixing CH first.     Pass on this website link….

FLASHBACK to Cedar Hills in 2012…

Mayor withholds his emails from City Records

May 24, 2012 – This CHCRG article documents that then Cedar Hills Mayor Eric Richardson conducted ALL of his city business from his personal account, and none from a city email address.  Our GRAMA request was attempting to get his public record emails into the city recorders office where the Request could be fulfilled.

Using Private Email, Hillary Clinton Thwarted Record Requests

By MICHAEL S. SCHMIDT and AMY CHOZICK

MARCH 3, 2015  — New York Times

WASHINGTON — In 2012, congressional investigators asked the State Department for a wide range of documents related to the attack on the United States diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya. The department eventually responded, furnishing House committees with thousands of documents.

But it turns out that that was not everything.

The State Department had not searched the email account of former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton because she had maintained a private account, which shielded it from such searches, department officials acknowledged on Tuesday.

It was only last month that the House committee appointed to investigate Benghazi was provided with about 300 of Mrs. Clinton’s emails related to the attacks. That was shortly after Mrs. Clinton turned over, at the State Department’s request, some 50,000 pages of government-related emails that she had kept on her private account.

It was one of several instances in which records requests sent to the State Department, which had no access to Mrs. Clinton’s emails, came up empty. …

…The State Department says it will now search the 50,000 emails Mrs. Clinton provided in response to Freedom of Information and congressional requests.

The White House, in its first response to the news, said it frowned on the practice of officials using their personal email accounts.

“What I can tell you is that very specific guidance has been given to agencies all across the government, which is specifically that employees of the Obama administration should use their official email accounts when they’re conducting official government business,” the White House spokesman, Josh Earnest, said. “However, when there are situations where personal email accounts are used, it is important for those records to be preserved consistent with the Federal Records Act.”

But political groups and news organizations said requests for records related to Mrs. Clinton had repeatedly gone unanswered.
