Feinstein: No Classified Info in Hillary Clinton Emails

By WILSON RING Vermont state officials are working on long-term plans to meet pollution reduction goals for Lake Champlain set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. They object to lower interest rates on new loans for the same reason, writing: “We’d be better off spending those dollars elsewhere”. But, according to legal experts, this type of security review can turn into a criminal investigation if there is evidence that someone intentionally mishandled government secrets. SCI stands for “sensitive compartmented information“. Rep. Adam Schiff and Sen.

Clinton obviously understood the implications of mishandling classified information on her private email account. “The State Department relies on the half-baked, vague declaration by Hillary Clinton and a misleading letter by her lawyer to try to avoid its obligations to produce records under the Freedom of Information Act”, Fitton said in a statement.

Now that the Justice Department and the FBI have taken possession of the hard drives containing Hillary Clinton’s emails during her time as secretary of state, the question remains: what took so long?

Hillary Clinton has made a career of stiff-arming Congress, inspectors general and the press. And they also were marked “NOFORN”, meaning information that can only be shared with U.S. authorities with security clearances.

Meanwhile, we may have a clearer picture of the subject matter discussed in those two top secret emails discovered (thus far) on her unsecure private server.

In recent weeks, Clinton, her campaign and the State Department have shifted their language, offering less definitive denials regarding classified information.

“The whole thing of scandal is much harder to pin on her with first- and second-time voters”, said Frank Luntz, a GOP strategist who helped counsel House Republicans through their battles with the Clintons in the 1990s. “So, I’m certainly well aware of the classification requirements and did not send classified material“.

“State Department employees apparently circulated the emails on unclassified systems in 2009 and 2011, and some were ultimately forwarded to Mrs. Clinton”.

It would be chary of me, as a Washington Post columnist, not to acknowledge the yeoman-like work the Times has done on the email story.

The emails came to light on Tuesday after Senator Chuck Grassley reported that McCullough found four “highly classified” emails on the unusual homebrew server that Clinton used while she was secretary of state. The copy makes reference to classified information. The government protections don’t extend to private accounts. He said past secretaries have used private email accounts as well. Some interviewed by AP said it improperly points back to highly classified material, but not all sources agreed.

Clinton, he said, is too distant; not genuine enough. These emails were discovered by the State Department, but they had already been turned over to the Benghazi committee by none other than Blumenthal himself. What could she possibly have anticipated being so damaging to her career that she was willing to justify risking national security and tangling herself up in an embarrassing web of lies?
