2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Hillary's classified email [View all]grasswire
(50,130 posts)74. that particular intel was fresh, and was from an NSA communication.
It was nearly real time report from an NSA dispatch. NSA said so. Regarding a conversation they had captured in Sudan. Drumheller was getting this stuff. He's dead now. We do not know if he was questioned by the FBI prior to his death or not.
Hillary was trained to know what was classified and what wasn't.
Blumenthaler is not primarily a journalist and did not serve her in that capacity.
Last sentence: Motives do not matter. Intent is not required for criminality here.
