SR 1406 – Carly Fiorina Destroyed Her Secret Server Too

Good afternoon, I’m still reporting on Carly Fiorina Destroyed Her Secret Server Too

Good morning, I’m still reporting on Carly Fiorina.
I’m happy with the cabinet picks by President-Elect Donald Trump so far – until I heard about Carly Fiorina.
This is the second of our 3-part series which originally ran over a year ago.
Although I know stories about today’s meeting of the Electoral College would be more popular, it’s more important to inform the President-Elect of Fiorina’s past, if indeed he is pondering her appointment to this nation’s highest intelligence community job - the DNI – Director of National Intelligence.
Fourteen months ago - on Oct. 4, 2015 – after weeks of Fiorina gaining national traction for criticizing Hillary Clinton for wiping all her emails off of her private server - we published a story on how Carly Fiorina did the same thing by ordering the destruction of 5 hard drives on her own, personal, secret server to hide the nefarious details of how she took over as CEO of Hewlett Packard.

According to an article written by Jeffrey Sonnenfeld in August 2015 in Fortune magazine, Fiorina was hired by:
"… a dysfunctional HP board committee, filled with its own poisoned politics, hired her with no CEO experience, nor interviews with the full board."
It appears that Fiorina was pushed onto the board in July of 1999 by forces unknown. According to her Wikipedia entry:
“Fiorina received a larger signing offer than any of her predecessors, including: $65 million in restricted stock, a $3 million signing bonus, a $1 million annual salary … (and encouragement) to use company planes for personal affairs.”
When she was finally fired by the board in 2005, Fortune magazine reported that she had collected over $100 million in compensation during her short tenure at HP.
According to a story in the Oct. 4, 2015 CapitolHillOutsider.com written by Kelleigh Neilson, a former Customer Engineer at Hewlett Packard, he was ordered personally ordered to destroy the hard drives in 2000.
“My name is Charles Nielsen, and I was an employee with HP from 1/2000 until 8/2001. I worked in the Boise, Idaho Data Center. I was the sole Customer Engineer allowed to work on Carly’s private server. “
“It was kept under lock and key, and I was the only engineer allowed to work on it under the direct supervision of the Data Center Manager….”
“In March of 2001, just before Carly Fiorina had taken control of HP from Walter Hewlett, I was asked to remove the 5 hard drives from her personal server and physically destroy them with a hammer.”
“I asked why I would destroy hard drives that at the time were worth over $15k apiece and I was told because she said so.”
“Shortly after destroying all evidence of her conspiracy to take over the company, she removed Walter Hewlett from the board of directors and made off with approximately $500 million dollars from the company with the rest of the board of directors ($100 million for Carly personally).”
“All of her emails and all working documents were destroyed.”
“I have kept my silence until now, when I find it highly offensive that after laying off close to 33k workers … she is pretending she would never behave like Hillary has. Carly Fiorina is as corrupt as they come.”
I’m still reporting from Washington -- and Merry Christmas.
