In reply to the discussion: HRC's email problems just got worse [View all]leveymg
(36,418 posts)60. There appears to have been some cherry-picking in your selection. Here's the previous paragraph:
These emails were not retroactively classified by the State
Department; rather these emails contained classified information when they were generated
and, according to IC classification officials, that information remains classified today. This
classified information should never have been transmitted via an unclassified personal system.

I would also like to remind you that the excerpt of the joint statement dates to July, 2015, and the focus of the investigation has changed and intensified over time, with Mrs. Clinton's operation of the unauthorized email server becoming the focus. As FBI Director Comey recently commented:
Clinton and her team have made a point of not describing the FBI's work as an "investigation," but alternately as a "security review" or "security inquiry." They've also noted that the issue was referred to the FBI not as a criminal matter but as an intelligence breach.
However, in response to a question Wednesday, Comey said he wasn't familiar with the term "security inquiry" that Clinton and her aides have used. The FBI chief said he considers the work agents are doing to be an "investigation."
"It's in our name. I'm not familiar with the term 'security inquiry','" the director said.

The FBI report and IC AG report will confirm the official statement made last July, that has not changed, and will detail the allegations. It will be clear she violated her security clearance, and in so doing violated several federal felony statutes.

I'm a bit surprised you haven't heard of Cillizza...he's on teevee and been around for some time.

Technically, as head of agency, she did violate the Federal Records Act. That's in the report.

The article doesn't say she broke law. She broke department policy, which is not a law. n/t
