Another 'recycled' hard drive

Amazing odds.

•April Sands was a Federal Election Commission lawyer before she resigned this year and accepted a ban on holding government jobs until 2016
•She was former IRS official Lois Lerner's deputy when she was at the FEC•Like the allegations against Lerner, Sands admitted violating the Hatch Act, which prohibits government workers from advocating for candidates
•And as seems to be the case with Lerner, Sands escaped prosecution because her hard drive mysteriously 'crashed' and was recycled
•She was known as 'Obama girl' in her office, and a colleague recalled how she boasted that Obama's 2012 campaign would hire her away
April J. Sands resigned her position as an FEC attorney in April 2014 after investigators confronted her with tweets she sent and a video interview she conducted during work hours, advocating for the election of President Barack Obama and other Democratic candidates – and asking people to contribute to their campaigns.
When the FEC's Office of Inspector General began the process of filing criminal charges, however, it found that the agency had destroyed her computer's hard drive before it could be seized.

The dog ate the homework use to be the excuse, now it's the hard drive crashed and was destroyed.
These people have no shame.

If you work the government, you should not be allowed to vote for federal elections.
Same for state government if you are a state employee.
These individuals should be removed from the process as much as humanly possible in order to maintain a sense of being nonpartisan.

So who learned it from who?
Lerner got the idea from Sands or Sands got the idea from Lerner?

In a letter to FEC chairman Lee Goodman, committee chairman Darrell Issa and committee member Jim Jordan laid out Sands’ partisan activities and asked for records pertaining to the recycling of her hard drive and of the agency’s records retention policies.
Sands took part in a heavily partisan online webcam discussion from FEC offices and also operated a Twitter account with the handle @ReignOfApril which were sent during Sands’ normal working hours.
One of Sands’ tweets, from June 4, 2012 read “I just don’t understand how anyone but straight white men can vote Republican. What kind of delusional rhetorical [sic] does one use?”
Sands is a black female.
“Dear every single Republican ever, When will U learn that Barack Hussein Obama is simply smarter than U? Stand down, Signed #Obama2012 #p2,” Sands wrote on May 1, 2012.
In a message from Aug. 25, 2012, Sands called Republicans her “enemy.”
In others, Sands issued fundraising pleas on behalf of Obama. “Our #POTUS’s birthday is August 4. He’ll be 51. I’m donating $51 to give him the best birthday present ever: a second term,” she wrote on July 18, 2012.

I realize this may be redundant and not informing anyone, I think it's nonetheless worth noting again that FEC stands for Federal Election Commission
Say it again: Federal Election Commission
As in the people who facilitate elections for the federal government-- the keystone of our Republic, the very and most basic way citizens express their will and intentions and exercise their rights by choosing their government's leaders. Let it sink in a minute or so longer.

I find it telling that the left defends Lerner and Sands. The fact that the left goes to bat, so hard over these people indicates that their is with 100% certainty corruption tied to the Dems and the White House.
If not, then why defend them so much? If you were truly objective and wanted the truth, you would be just as incensed as everyone else.
If their is no corruption, then the left needs to demand answers.
