Judge Napolitano Exposes The REAL Reason Why Gen. Petraeus Is Getting Demoted

Judge Andrew  Napolitano, an outspoken critic of the Obama administration, appeared on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends” on Thursday to slam Defense Secretary Ashton Carter for possibly demoting Gen. David Petraeus retroactively.
The Obama administration claims that the proposed demotion stems from Petraeus’ conviction for mishandling classified information by giving it to his biographer and mistress, Paula Broadwell.
Judge Nap questioned Carter’s reasoning for the possible, saying, “Is this political? Is this to send him a message? ‘Don’t tell everybody what you know about Benghazi because we’ll keep coming after you.'"
 
Of course we all know Obama's intimation tactics. From the IRS, EPA, Justice Department and anything else this dictator can pull out of his hat. And what does the Rino's do, nothing, zip. Oh they do give him all the money he wants!

I think that the FBI will recommend to the Justice Department that she be indicted.”

Tom Fitton, President of the conservative watchdog organization Judicial Watch, who said that while he couldn’t speak to the charges of perjury:

Last week, the Hillary Clinton server soap opera continued after the discovery of a string of previously undisclosed emails.

The emails included an exchange between Clinton and General David Petraeus, then-head of CENTCOM, in January and February of 2009.

This wouldn’t be particularly compelling, given the more dramatic turns this story has taken, if Clinton hadn’t signed an affidavit on August 10, swearing “under penalty of perjury” that she had turned over all government related emails.

According to the Associated Press:

“The Petraeus emails, first discovered by the Defense Department and then passed to the State Department’s inspector general challenge…Clinton’s claim that she has handed over the entirety of her work emails from the account.”

Appearing on Fox News’ “The Kelly File,” Judge Andrew Napolitano predicted Clinton’s defense, saying:

“She’s going to argue–because she stated…that she’s not a technical person, and she didn’t pay attention to emails, and she doesn’t understand exactly how the entire email system works–I’m afraid that’s not an argument that the judge wants to hear, and will essentially fall on deaf ears.”

Speaking to potential legal action, Napolitano added:

“I think that the FBI will recommend to the Justice Department that she be indicted.”

IJ spoke to Tom Fitton, President of the conservative watchdog organization Judicial Watch, who said that while he couldn’t speak to the charges of perjury:

“There’s no doubt [Clinton’s] statement was not accurate.”

At some point, it will be up to the judge to decide if Clinton perjured herself, or if her alleged lack of knowledge precludes her from such a charge.
