The department determined that those 38 people were "culpable" in 91 cases of sending classified information in messages that ended up in Clinton's personal email. The 38 are current and former State Department officials but were not identified in the report that was sent to Congress this week.
The investigation covered 33,000 emails that Clinton turned over for review after her use of the private email account became public. The department said it found a total of 588 violations involving information then or now deemed to be classified, but could not assign fault in 497 cases.
May be the first of some more as we get further into some future IG reports (I realize this is the State Department). Probably a bunch of wrist slapping but, let's take a look shall we?
It's happening.
You farted?
It's okay and get over it
Good one !
Do you have any Charmin ?
Maybe Grey Poupon ? But only the Dejon type please.
No, but I'll give you some tp
Who cares? It is Hillary Clinton, move on.
Thanks !
You're welcome
38 people certainly goes beyond the 5 given blanket immunity! This will all come out. She got a pass from the FBI in broad daylight. I'm not sure if it gets looked into further, but she deserves a lot of punishment.
Its hilarious that republicans are still on Hillary's emails and they don't care about Trump's emails, his kids and inlaws, staff, etc do it. Which they DO. And they are ok with corruption, from quid pro quo extortion for political purposes to personally profiting off the office (emoluments clause), we've never seen such blatant corruption. Trump tried to manufacture dirt on dems via Ukraine extortion and you lot don't fucking care one little bit. "Values"? Or satan's minions?
Oh, FFS, its about emails and transparency and following the damn law.
You know, it almost doesn't even matter anymore what the topic is.
We are virtually guaranteed at least one person will chime in with:
"But Trump!!!!!!!!!!!"
Maybe Comey should have conducted a legitimate investigation.
I'm just glad the legitimate investigations are ongoing presently and yielding much rotted low hanging fruit. Working their way up the chain. No matter where we are right now, the trajectory is finally moving into unavoidable truths about the corruption in front of our faces. Its blatant and easy to understand, and more people, especially young, want him investigated and removed from office. Not going to turn that train around.
Why not? Y'all sure do the "But Hillary!!!" enough.
So much so that the people can't see it!
As for legitimate investigations - I got a hunch we hear something Monday - Watch for it!
Ooooo, ok. After the disaster and possible crime against humanity (Kurds - and morally it IS a crime against humanity), he needs something big. Hope he doesn't plan to push the nuclear button. Is that what comes after greenlighting ethnic cleansing?
Where would Erdogan fit into all of that?
Hope he doesn't plan to push the nuclear button.
Based upon Donald Trump's three years in office, I think you can stop worrying.
Is that what comes after greenlighting ethnic cleansing?
You may have missed it, but the President arranged a cease-fire between the Turks and Kurds:
It is hard to hold the Turks and Kurds apart. I'm sure it will still be a problem in Trump's second term.
More than likely his third and fourth terms also.
If only the IG of the DOJ would investigate that investigation too.
Oh wait...
The big "If only" is that new avatar! LMAO!
I knew all that teabagging talk about the Constitution was bullshit. They don't even know what is in it and don't care.
Progressives can't even accept the will of the people. Let's start there!
[Deleted]
Republicans can't even accept that Trump is FUBAR. Let's start THERE.
Lib can speak for herself. I thought you were busy trying to censor my satirical seed?
I know that, I speak for myself.
How is calling you on posting your garbage in the wrong category censoring it Vic?
Triggered?
It's garbage because you don't like it. Hillary Clinton is garbage. Joe Biden is garbage and oh yes, Reacel Maddow is garbage, but what you were trying to do is censor a seed that you didn't like. I didn't allow it, did I?
Vic, you have to label a comedy or satire news story with something that identifies it as comedy or satire. Its not really a difficult concept on this site.
It's garbage because it's GARBAGE.
You MOVED your seed, didn't you Vic?
Being triggered garners no sympathy from me.
Coming from those who have nothing but impeachment in the toolbox facing an election they know they can't win, it dosen't really mean much.
You MOVED your seed, didn't you Vic?
Move is the wrong word, a blunder for you. I changed the label. You must hate the fact that we can make changes!
Being triggered garners no sympathy from me.
You know a lot about "triggered", going back to Nov 8, 2016. What a beautiful night it was.
I have to go for now, so as usual, to those for whom it means so much - you may have the last word.
First of all, it's just me here Vic, no plural required.
Secondly, my 'impeachment toolbox' is much more than you've been able to handle. If you COULD, you wouldn't bail on supporting your own comments all the time.
I know it when I read it.
That night was beautiful, I spent it at a bon fire and was in bed long before the numbers were in.
Lock her up🔒!
November 8, 2016 was a glorious day and evening! 🎉🎊👏👍😎
Yea, the right has been screaming that for 25 years now. Pretty funny that the guy that led chants of, "lock her up!!!", is heading for prison. Poetic justice.
LOCK HIM UP
LOCK HIM UP
LOCK HIM UP
Just trying to refer this seed back to the present problems.
--------------
Lets see , .00275 of the 33,000 emails were considered worthy of censure by the investigation cited in the article. Thats 3 per 1000 for the math challenged.
This is what all the hoopla was about ?
Hmmm.
some of the 38 people who took part in misuse of .00275 of the emails MAY get a wrist slap.
My goodness!
It's always, but Hillary, but Obama....but when it's Crooked donnie it's okay and get over it....
But Trump aside, this is a news story. Plain and simple and nothing more. While I know it isn't anti Trump, which it seems at least two here can't fathom ANYTHING else being news worthy, tough shit. Don't like it? Don't read. Thanks.
It always amazes me that even though there are 10 posts seeded about President Trump people always have to whine about Trump on the one that isn't about him. It's pretty sad actually.
Yes it is...............
This was billed for years as the greatest scandal in human history.
Not so much, eh?
Time to get new material, that's older than dirt.
To you, obviously not. Me either but, I wonder what was in those 588 cases. Don't you? Oh hell. What am I saying.
Seems it's actually being worked on ….for a "Change".
Give it time .
I use it where it is appropriate,
If it was something serious, we would have been told about it. Do I want to know what they talked about in day to day business of the state dept.? Not really. Im not a conspiracy nut.
A conspiracy nut being someone who believes a Democratic member of Congress is a secret Russian plant to destroy the Democratic Party in 2020? Is that how big of a conspiracy nut we are talking about?
What about ............
"91 cases of sending classified information in messages that ended up in Clinton's personal email"
doesn't bother you?
not when we have Donny sucking
all the crazy out of the asylum
Do these bother you?
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Top aides in President Donald Trump’s White House, including his daughter Ivanka Trump and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, will come under increased scrutiny for their use of personal emails and other unofficial messaging to conduct government affairs, a congressional oversight chairman said on Monday.
Or this?
BETSY DEVOS IS THE EIGHTH TRUMP OFFICIAL TO USE PERSONAL EMAIL FOR OFFICIAL WHITE HOUSE BUSINESS
Hmmm?
Private email use by government officials continues to raise suspicions
Don't hear any Republicans demanding investigations, do you?
But Trump.
And really?? April, May, and July? What do you think has come of those? Got anything more recent or were those just red meat? Perhaps more nothing berders?
What about...
Oh and how many of those 'violations' were for retroactively classified documents? There is no fucking way they are going to get away with disciplining people or denying security clearances for Ex Post Facto bullshit.
Who gives a shit if it was one or 20?
The Hillaryious Hillary got a pass and everyone knows it. Incompetence is not a excuse.
I do. Ex Post Facto penalties are verboten.
Oh and BTFW, wanna bet that Hillary Clinton isn't on that list?
So all those numbers in the seed are fabricated. Got ya.
So all those numbers in the seed are just 'the sampling' so that would make the seeded article irrelevant. Got ya.
Actually, fabricated is something someone who has an understanding of the English language would say.
"The department said it found a total of 588 violations involving information then or now deemed to be classified, but could not assign fault in 497 cases."
588, for the math challenged, is 1.8% of 33,000. They just could not ASSIGN fault in all the cases meaning, they didn't know who was responsible.
You're right, my figure pertains to the ones which were assigned fault.
And Crooked donnie did quid pro quo, lies every day, but you seem more concerned about Hillary's emails.
No quid pro quo and everyone knows he lies. You seem to be more concerned about his lies than what classified information was in those cases. I guess that is what TDS does.
"Liberalism is a disease that gets worse over time. Thus the term progressive."
I am far more worried that Rudy Giuliani , Trump's personal envoy to the world, is a full blown conspiracy nut than some State Dept personnel exchanged run of the mill emails with Clinton. Yes, you are correct.
What does Giuliani have to do with this article (except as a useful deflection shield)? And run of the mill? Classified is run of the mill to you?
how much fricken evidence do you need WTF already.
His Secretary of Stated it live on TV...?
Trump called out for Ukraine and China to illegally investigate Trumps political opponent, again on live TV, what can't you see ,
the Forest blocked by all the TREASON
as Trump CONTINUES TO AID AND ABBETT OUR ENEMIES !
Who benefited from his call to Turkey again,
besides IRAN, SYRIA, an autocratic leader of TURKEY, and
as far fathomed as it might again oh so coincidentally might be,
PUTIN"S RUSSIA !
Wow, how did that ever happen...YET AGAIN !
by stating that They DID via the definition of Quid pro Quo .
.
Really ???? Misspoke ??????
YEP !
The Ukrainian leader is involved in a war with Russia, $390,000,000.00 million dollars worth of Military Aid was at stake.
.
It was so frckn obvious what Trump was stating, even Trump defenders should have been able to decode it.
It's a good thing Trump NEVER LIES, so as you can continue to believe
his lies, and you actually wonder,
where lies the problem here...
don't wonder to far, as you are seemingly already very lost,
our condolences.
Yes, Mick Mulvaney's press conference...duh
when is America going to ?
Cat is OUT OF THE BAG, Genie is OUT OF THE BOTTLE...too bad you can't grasp that fact. GET OVER IT
Yeah, he told the truth the first time and had to correct it with lies. Get over it, right ?
[Deleted HE] SAID IT, GET OVER IT.
[Deleted]
should we take the Trump/Kurds and weigh ?
stop hypnotizing us wally
You have to ask if the president of Ukraine is a liar? Does a wild bear crap in the freaking woods???!??
The man let himself be dog-walked by Donald Trump on live television. If one man lets another man do that to him, I guarantee that his 'truth' comes directly from the man holding the leash.
We support democrats because we hate America!
Who, the Republicans ??
Republicans hate America
Note the red MAGA hat being worn by a white supremacist.
How do you take back a quid pro quo? It happened, he admitted it, the call logs prove it, the WB report says it, trump said it happened, then repeated the request on live TV 2 days later, rudy admitted it live on CNN...... I mean, how much more proof do you fucking need? I promise you this much, if it was Hillary or Obama, you would have been screaming it was 100% true from the rooftops at the first HINT that there was a quid pro quo, (withholding funding unless the Ukraine gives up dirt on a political rival).
You aren't stupid so give it a rest. There is NO amount of spin that can excuse what Mulvaney said. Rudy said the same thing, so they BOTH misspoke? C'mon man.
Yea, we heard the same thing in 2018, how did that turn out?
Sad that some are deaf, dumb and blind to the truth when it is staring them right in the face...
You think so? It looks more hit and miss to me, and it seems to get far worse the more he gets his ass handed to him.
Lol, your statement is screaming to everybody 'TRUMP DID QUID PRO QUO'! Because....everyone knows he lies.
We didn’t make a mistake in 2016. We chose wisely and we will repeat our wisdom in 2020.
And what about these?
They are not Making America Great Again!
LOCK THEM UP, LOCK THEM UP!!!
(Hehehe )
By 'we' I presume you mean YOU.
So will you be voting for Gary Johnson again?
They would stand a better chance of being convicted by a fuckin DC jury than would antifa thugs.
You didn't know it was a crime to pass classified information on an unsecure server?
How soon they forget.
see , .00275 of the 33,000 emails were considered worthy of censure by the investigation cited in the article. Thats 3 per 1000 for the math challenged.
This is what all the hoopla was about
Wow. Is that the new standard? Donald Trump made tens of thousands of phone calls. Only one has been considered worthy of a kinda sorta impeachment inquiry. What's all the hoopla about?
Sometimes, I'm legitimately stunned by how ludicrous progressives are willing to make themselves appear.
When you have examined all of Trump's communications , phone calls, notes scribbled with crayon, whispers in the ear , papers slipped under the table, etc, then we will have a data base to compare. How many calls has he made on his private phone from the residence that we have no idea what was said?
Your comparison is silly. They examined every one of Hillarys emails with a fine tooth comb, not once or twice but repeatedly.
After they have examined Trump over and over lets see what we have.
Well since the new standard is that every communication is hashed and rehashed, we'll have to listen to ALL of those calls, interview everyone that Trump talked to, listen to them again and then retroactively criminalize whatever the fuck we want.
Sure John. Issue a subpoena for those records then Trump can just go ahead and delete all records that he chooses not to turn over and claim they are just calls with Melania about doing yoga. That would make it a fair comparison.
what else do you apply this standard to? If you use a bank a few thousand times and only rob it once, does that mean the robbery isn't a problem?
Seems like quite a few for someone who repeatedly claimed to have had no classified information either sent by her or sent to her on her own little private server.
Seems like quite a few are only interested in going back to Hillary and ignoring everything Trump is CURRENTLY doing himself, his family, his cabinet and staff. So either care or not, but have a fucking standard for yourselves or quit bitching when its called out.
But Trump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Weak sauce as usual.
Yeah, because old shit is way more important than the mess the current president is making. So, what about those standards again? Care about the right, or only the left? I actually expect everybody to hold them, not just Trump. Notice how none of you or any spokesholes actually answer that question. Its pertinent to any discussion, do you hold yourselves to the same standard or not?
I am sure you can get your fix of "I Hate Trump" on one of JR's seeds. Why come here whining about Trump when it is painfully obvious that he is NOT the topic here, no matter how many times you yell "BUT TRUMP!!!!!"
"But Trump!!!!!!!!!!!"
From what has been reported in the last several years this is normal Tuesday at the State Department.
Meh, big deal. Compared to what trump has done since he has been in office, this is literally nothing. Besides..
I don't really care, do you?
"But Trump!!!!!!!"
Time for a change!
Comey told the entire world she is an incompetent dumbass.
No he did not. But he did say that about Trump.
play it.
Pretty sure Comey is a dude.
The Hillary gig is brought out again. And will become louder until it fades into the silence of the 'pipsqueak' holding the burning marshmallow on the end of a stick.
A clear indication that the dirty Russian money is------well, it just is.
It ( the dirty Russian money ) is deeper than the crap on the stick of dip. Hell, learned tonight that the great Rudy Giuliani took a date to the G.H.W.Bush funeral and the 'date' was Lev Parnas. Holy Crackers. You've got to joking.
Haven't we gone over this a few times already?
Mighty handy to reclassify information that WASN'T classified at all, to be reclassified as "top secret" or "sensitive" after it's been out there, unclassified for months to years?
And even handier to then scream about all that "top secret" information. If this "investigation" wasn't being desperately pushed by the GOP (to keep fueling the less than intelligent base) it would never have been any issue at all.
No, nobody will be "punished" it wasn't top secret information then so it wasn't any kind of crime, it's still useless dated information no matter how hard the GOP try to make it sound like it was "tip-top secret" now.
More brainless beating of a long, long dead horse.
From the article...
So what's this make, the 5th failed attempt by the nutters to find something about emails that will stick?
"Insanity---The act of doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result."
Also, I read the story over on fox, it says the same thing.
Yep, it's about that time. The campaign season has started but I'm totally disappointed..........Why only bring up Hilary? Where's the story about Bill?
Another pathetic thread about a Clinton. But I have high hopes that there will be threads popping up about that uppity black President soon.
Why does Hillaryious Hillary go on tours seeking attention?
You think she will ever run again?
Lock anyone up that has or is currently breaking a law no matter what party they belong to.
