Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton sent at least four messages from her personal email server while she was US secretary of state that contained information derived from classified material, according to a US government inspector general. The four emails "were classified when they were sent and are classified now," Andrea Williams, a spokesperson for I Charles McCullough, inspector general of the intelligence community, tells Byron Tau of the Wall Street Journal. Tau reports that the inspector general delivered a letter to Congress on Thursday asserting that Mrs Clinton should not have been using her personal server to send such information. "None of the emails we reviewed had classification or dissemination markings, but some included [intelligence community]-derived classified information and should have been handled as classified, appropriately marked and transmitted via a secure network," McCullough wrote. Mishandling classified information is prohibited by federal law, and numerous government employees, including former CIA head David Petraeus, have been charged with violations in recent years. Tau reports that the inspector general has provided relevant information to the counterintelligence division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation for further investigation.

Look at the idiots laughing. A whole room full of idiots.
Gosh. When our enemies hit us at Benghazi, it was almost like they had read government e-mails about US resources in Benghazi.
Surely, no one at high levels in the Obama Administration, say like the Secretary of State, would be discussing classified information about Libya on an unsecure computer system. Nobody could be that stupid.
That’s the kind of arrogant stupidity that could get four Americans murdered in Benghazi by our enemies. Nobody could be that stupid.
She did not address the question of whether she ever received any classified information on her personal server.
Either was equally insecure.
The WSJ mentioned (way down in the article) that a little tidbit the rest of the media is not mentioning. Yes, there were 4 classified emails that triggered the referral, but the IG only looked at a sample of 40 emails. That's 10%. There were tens of thousands of emails turned over, more that were erased.
A solid investigation would start pulling all the email from addresses that sent Clinton email to that address. Cross referencing what Clinton turned over and look for attempts to destroy evidence. We know that won't happen.
Yep.
Our Secretary of State, the person at the head of foreign affairs, was using an unsecure communications system.
And why?
I personally think that Hillary received a phone call from our enemies on the ambassador’s cell phone that night.
She saw who the call was from and answered it.
The enemy had direct communications with our Secretary of State.
COMSEC means nothing to her. She’s too damn arrogant.
CORRUPT TO THE CORE.
Why did we get hit at Benghazi?
Why did the enemy bring a mortar to use at the CIA building?
Collecting intelligence is always a matter of cross-checking your sources. We have all been assuming that Benghazi was compromised by a native security guard.
He was probably just used for confirmation.
The enemy, and let’s remember that Iran and Russia are also involved, was probably gathering significant information from Hillary Clinton’s e-mails.
She may be the proximate cause of the attack in Benghazi and the murders of four Americans.
It’s time to stop playing nice.
Americans were murdered.
I don’t give a shit if every Democrat in the country runs out into the street, she needs to be brought in and questioned and not by some committee.
After all the scandals and all the corruption, there are no calls for her to withdraw from the race.
In 2008 the MSM transitioned from "very liberal partisans" to "full fledged Democrat regime operatives". You'll hear noting negative about Hillary unless the Chicago Mob decides to torpedo her. So far they appear to be in a "stand off" mode.
Say good-bye to Charles McCullough.
Reason emerged in a Friday report by The Wall Street Journal; Of the 32,000 (vital to cover), emails destroyed, plus the 30,000 (recipient may rat you out), emails turned over to the State Department from the Hillary & Co. Con. clandestine spout.
US Inspectors General, has to date inspected 40 of the relevant 62,000 emails. Ten of forty, contain information available only from classified material, documents or resources.
Extrapolated; well over 24 thousand spout products warranted some level of class. One in a thousand actually are likely class 1 critical. (Class 1 critical is kinda like, grid co-ordinates on Akagi, in early December of 1941).
Go figure, then build gallows for this miserable thing.
