Failure to turn over classified info when she left State violated her security agreement and leveymg May 2016 #11

Not just classified info - she was supposed to turn over all her emails, as I recall. JudyM May 2016 #12

That's the Federal Records Act. A lesser charge. leveymg May 2016 #15

Much of the most highly classified material was abstracted from classified documents originating leveymg May 2016 #46

may i ask for your source please? synergie May 2016 #49

Of course, here's an excerpt of the CBS News report. It was also reported in NYT leveymg May 2016 #50

how could anyone endorse this individual for the presidency? she also took it upon herself amborin May 2016 #37

Not only were some of the deleted emails work-related,... HooptieWagon May 2016 #43

so some random computer company had access to classified information? Rosa Luxemburg May 2016 #110

They weren't exactly random, but apparently yes. HooptieWagon May 2016 #111

I don't think people know Rosa Luxemburg May 2016 #109

OMG Rosa Luxemburg May 2016 #108

Do you know if the Clinton Foundation used the same server? I remember Land of Enchantment May 2016 #10

There was a previous server used for Foundation work. HooptieWagon May 2016 #28

Thank you! I read thru the timeline you put together - the 'short' one Dems to Win May 2016 #44

This is pure fantasy. Do you know anything about computer security? YouDig May 2016 #51

No, it was wide open to attack. Fawke Em May 2016 #97

No one claims Bryan Pagliano gave the FBI the server's security logs FreakinDJ May 2016 #52

What's this then? SO the logs were NOT turned over? Confused... jmg257 May 2016 #59

"people close to a federal investigation" - wiped the server FreakinDJ May 2016 #62

Yes - It is all VERY strange...note this tap-dancing statement: jmg257 May 2016 #71

Way too kind. This crap belongs over at Rim Job's pathetic COLGATE4 May 2016 #56

I'm amazed that some don't think this is important. polly7 May 2016 #68

The president she was supposedly "disloyal" to disagrees with you. YouDig May 2016 #78

What the fuck is he supposed to say??? polly7 May 2016 #79

Exactly what he thinks, which is that she was a great SoS. YouDig May 2016 #80

A great SoS ........... yeah, the ME and NA show just how good she was. nt. polly7 May 2016 #83

Take it up with Obama. I agree with him. YouDig May 2016 #85

The investigation is a partisan sham. This story is ridiculous but the VRWC is shameless. nt ucrdem May 2016 #60

Can you tell me which part of this investigation is a partisan sham? riderinthestorm May 2016 #64

All of it, and yes the FBI is partisan: ucrdem May 2016 #67

I can go into my google settings right now and see the IP of EVERY computer Dr Hobbitstein May 2016 #77

The statement from her camp is this: Fawke Em May 2016 #90

I was addressing the poster's claim of someone logging into her account via Dr Hobbitstein May 2016 #91

Well, I found this. Fawke Em May 2016 #96

But you weren't talking about the FBI, and my response was not about the FBI. Dr Hobbitstein May 2016 #98

gotta parse every Clinton word grasswire May 2016 #95

For a period of time in 2013, there doesn't appear to be any security logs. HooptieWagon May 2016 #112

And if you only accessed it by your smartphone? Barack_America May 2016 #113

They would all have the same MAC address. nt Dr Hobbitstein May 2016 #114

Thanks. Then, if Guccifer is to be believed.... Barack_America May 2016 #115

Not true. If she didn't have a static IP on her phone, Dr Hobbitstein May 2016 #116

Yes, the logs would show it, because they show the client IP address. YouDig May 2016 #84

Aren't the Clinton's, like most of America's high-rollers, considered above the law though? nt NorthCarolina May 2016 #86

I'm pretty sure she believes she's above EVERYHING & EVERYONE... Yurovsky May 2016 #102
