Something that went through my brain...
Comey went far in explaining the possible criminal actions of Clinton before he announced he would not be prosecuting her for...what? Treason? Negligence in handling Top Secret information? Intent?
In explaining all that went on he did outline 1) Her lying; 2) Reasons for taking away her TS clearance and 3) allowing persons without security clearance to read Top Secret information, namely her attorney, Kendall.
In determining "intent", Comey does not address the email that said Clinton DID NOT want anyone reading her emails. The public and Congress has that information and would, in all speculation, would want to know why that didn't prove "intent."
Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information, there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information.
For example, seven e-mail chains concern matters that were classified at the Top Secret/Special Access Program level when they were sent and received. These chains involved Secretary Clinton both sending e-mails about those matters and receiving e-mails from others about the same matters. There is evidence to support a conclusion that any reasonable person in Secretary Clinton’s position, or in the position of those government employees with whom she was corresponding about these matters, should have known that an unclassified system was no place for that conversation. In addition to this highly sensitive information, we also found information that was properly classified as Secret by the U.S. Intelligence Community at the time it was discussed on e-mail (that is, excluding the later “up-classified” e-mails).
None of these e-mails should have been on any kind of unclassified system, but their presence is especially concerning because all of these e-mails were housed on unclassified personal servers not even supported by full-time security staff, like those found at Departments and Agencies of the U.S. Government—or even with a commercial service like Gmail.
It has been discussed that those who have TS clearanced, sign a document stating how to properly handle TS information and their intention to protect that information on gov't. controlled servers allowing archiving of all emails of the State Dept.
While not the focus of our investigation, we also developed evidence that the security culture of the State Department in general, and with respect to use of unclassified e-mail systems in particular, was generally lacking in the kind of care for classified information found elsewhere in the government.
Clinton's emails were handled so improperly that is assumed they were likely hacked by hostile entities.
We do assess that hostile actors gained access to the private commercial e-mail accounts of people with whom Secretary Clinton was in regular contact from her personal account. We also assess that Secretary Clinton’s use of a personal e-mail domain was both known by a large number of people and readily apparent. She also used her personal e-mail extensively while outside the United States, including sending and receiving work-related e-mails in the territory of sophisticated adversaries. Given that combination of factors, we assess it is possible that hostile actors gained access to Secretary Clinton’s personal e-mail account.
there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information,
What is "willful intent..." Generally, that would indicate the act was not "an unforeseeable act." Or, the Top Secret information was put on a private, unsecured server by mistake. Clinton had every intention of putting that information on the unsecured server in the closet in her home. She even wrote in an email she didn't want anyone to have access to her emails!
What is not question is Sidney Bloomenthal's access to top secret emails and how Hillary used Bloomenthal for intelligence even after the president said he could not be hired by that State Dept. as Hillary had desired. She used him anyway, paying him $10,000 a month from the Clinton Foundation Fund. No questions from the president or the FBI? He did not have TS clearance. But Hillary wanted him in Libya gathering intelligence and the hell with the president! Is that what the Clinton Foundation is used for? No questions from the FBI?
Many questions remain. I hope they ask them and we hear the answers.
.. ..and you have reduced yourself to an imbecile and the definition of a lemming Democrat...
