Clinton’s Emails Included Names Of CIA Spies, Official Says
The State Department will be denying in full seven email chains found in 22 documents, representing 37 pages.
She said that she didn’t start any of the email chains that contained the now-top-secret information, and insisted that none were marked classified at the time, so she didn’t have any concerns about forwarding the information at the time.
It now seems beyond question that Clinton’s server contained a variety of classified information including some information so sensitive that even now – years after she left her job as secretary of state – it can’t be released. “We have worked closely with our inter-agency partners on this matter, and this dialogue with the inter-agency is exactly how the process is supposed to work”, he said.
The State Department has released thousands of these e-mails, however this can be the very first time her messages are tagged classified at any amount.
Kirby, however, claimed the 22 email documents had not be identified as classified information when they were sent out through Clinton’s private clintonemail.com email account through her private server located at her residence in NY.
The State Department has been releasing Clinton’s emails monthly since June to comply with a judge’s order that they be made public by the end of January 2016.
“We firmly oppose the complete blocking of the release of these emails”, spokesman Brian Fallon said.
DF: And second, none of the emails sent to Secretary Clinton have the mandatory markings that are required when classified information is transmitted.
Department officials also said the agency’s Diplomatic Security and Intelligence and Research bureaus will investigate whether any of the information was classified at the time of transmission, going to the heart of one of Clinton’s primary defenses of her email practices.
After viewing the highly classified documents, the source said that the presence of the information on Clinton’s home email server, which was nearly certainly accessed by multiple foreign governments and hackers, jeopardized “sources, methods and lives”.
Also, as Sen. Dianne Feinstein observed, the fact that the emails were sent to Clinton and that none of them originated with her is also relevant. “She has now definitively – without any question – lied to us”. Bernie Sanders may think that Hillary’s emails are of no outcome, but I’m hoping that enough Democrats will be so disgusted by her arrogance that they will vote for Sanders or O’Malley Monday in Iowa.
The intelligence community has deemed some of Clinton’s emails “too damaging” to national security to release under any circumstances, a US government official close to the ongoing review told Fox News. For now, she soldiers on, but the slow drip of emails from her private server continues to serve Hillary’s political prospects poorly.
“That would be retroactively overclassifying a public newspaper article”, she said.
“If someone on my staff did what she did, you know what would happen?”
