Hillary Clinton's use of a private, non-secure email server housed in her Chappaqua basement resulted in the exposure of hundreds of classified documents to foreign hackers. Some of her emails contained highly classified information that endangered the lives of our spies.Read more here.
According to the State Department Inspector General, 22 of Hillary's emails totaling 38 pages included materials marked "HCS-O," the most sensitive category reserved for information about clandestine CIA operatives in ongoing operations. These emails were so sensitive that they could not be released -- even with the entire message redacted.
According to John Schindler, an intelligence analyst writing for The Observer,, "these classified emails could jeopardize "sources, methods, and lives...and exposed the Holy Grail items of American espionage such as the true names of Central Intelligence Agency intelligence officers serving overseas under cover," Schindler added :"Worse, some of those exposed are serving under non-official cover."
Schindler has confirmed the content of the emails and labeled them as "colossally damaging to our national security [that[has put lives at risk," According to Schindler's sources, the names of foreigners on the CIA payroll were also included, jeopardizing their cove -- and their lives -- if the material was hacked.
On her home-brewed server, the documents were unprotected and easily vulnerable to hackers. According to former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, Hillary's emails were probably hacked by China, Russia, and Iran.
...Hillary Clinton is playing her own version of "it depends on what the meaning of is is." That was Bill Clinton's cutesy response to the Grand Jury when asked about whether there "is" a relationship with Monica Lewinsky.
Since the FBI began investigating her email server, Hillary has repeatedly defended herself by insisting that she neither sent nor received any material marked Classified.
Again, that doesn't matter. Classified material is based on the content, not any marking.
...And we know that Hillary found ways to deliberately circumvent the protections on classified materials. When top aide Jake Sullivan told her that he couldn't fax a classified memo she was waiting for, she quickly showed her adeptness at sending classified information. Sullivan told her: "they say they've had issues sending secure fax. They're working on it." Hillary effortlessly directed him: "If they can't, turn into non-paper with no identifying heading and send non-secure."
In other words, take off the classified markings and send it anyway.
Hillary didn't protect classified information when it was inconvenient for her. Now she's caught. And now she's working overtime trying to spin it.
It won't work Hillary. You've betrayed your oath and betrayed the people who have been exposed.
