Hillary Email Scandal: Two Smoking Guns Found In Latest Batch
“They’ve had to address this and also Secretary Clinton“. On Tuesday, more email messages were released.
Merle Black, a political science professor at Emory University, called the email quandary extraordinary and “very Nixonian”, in the sense that accusations of misconduct have persisted, and the tone is one of secrecy, despite Clinton’s pledge of full compliance with official orders.
It’s a blast from the past that Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton probably does not want voters to see.
While the State Department maintains that it has found no evidence that Clinton sent or received information that was classified at the time, intelligence community watchdogs have disputed that claim.
Clinton first insisted that there was “no classified material” in her emails. Remember, the dodgy Mr. Blumenthal was on the Clinton Foundation’s payroll at the time, having been explicitly banned from working at the State Department by the White House.
One example came in a February 2010 message, when an aide noted a draft of innocuous remarks about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was on the State Department’s classified messaging system. “Just email it”.
Mikulski responded by thanking Clinton for the e-mail, and noting that “alas, my achieve has given O’Malley his nemesis”, which means former Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr., a Republican who challenged O’Malley to a rematch for the governor’s workplace that yr. She now says her decision to use a personal email account to conduct government business was a mistake.
But she shifted weeks later on the campaign trail, telling reporters the emails on her server were not marked classified at the time they were sent. The State Department officials who redacted the material cited national security as the reason for blocking it from public view.
The department has said the information in some of Clinton’s emails is being newly classified now, but it has also said it can not know for sure whether the information should have been handled as classified all along. “State has been trying to figure it out”.
If the State Department’s markings are correct, it appears that Clinton and her senior staff routinely did not follow the regulations in the department’s Foreign Affairs Manual, which tells employees they “must” safeguard foreign government information by treating it as classified.
Clinton said congress “may pull from a whole new 7 dollars.seven billion fund to help explains nail fitness milestones” in wrestling whatever she named a “peaceful prevalent”.
A few of the messages released Monday hint at the ways Clinton’s family was involved in her work at the agency.
Polls show Clinton suffering a favorability downturn; in the latest Quinnipiac poll, Clinton’s negative 39-51 matches her worst favorability rating ever. After an unnamed party assumed that former President Clinton’s preexisting role as a United Nations envoy to Haiti would sideline him from the reconstruction effort, Hillary stepped in.
