Hillary Clinton was given an extremely high level security clearance and at that time received a briefing required by law. In that briefing she was told that no matter what the classification level of the information she was handling, all of it would be handled as if it were all classified. She signed this document, a binding legal document. From that point on she was responsible for every piece of data, every document, every e-mail relating to government / State Department service. She signed it and was thus legally bound by it.
The vast majority of Liberals want to completely skip right on by this massive FACT. They might not like it. They may disagree with it. That, however, does not change the fact that it is the law, one that Hillary VIOLATED...as in BROKE THE LAW.
One of the programs, one of many, that she was 'Read Into' was extremely highly classified. Once she finished as Secretary of State and started out-processing she was 'Read Out' of the program. In this briefing she was told she would not speak, write, communicate in any way any information pertaining to this / these programs. She was required to turn in ALL classified information, documents, notes, folders, papers, e-mails - ALL CLASSIFIED. She could no longer have them in her possession because she no longer had a 'need to know' and had no business being involved in any of that classified material any more as a citizen.
The very FACT that she still had over 1,000 pieces of classified information - some clearly marked and NOT classified after the fact, is a violation of the law. The fact that she had all of this EXTREMELY Classified information in her possession is a serious breach of Intelligence and security. Many liberals want to skip right over this, as well. You CAN'T claim she did not know. The information in her possession, the information regarding the program she was 'read into' - all of this information, what it pertained to, was made clear to her - that's what happens when they read you into such a program...so her claim that she did not know this stuff was classified is B$! She was 'read out' - it was again explained to her, along with the direction that she was not to have any of it in her possession.
She broke the law...period.
Then again...Doesn't matter.
