Re: Hillary e-mail instructs aide to transmit classified data without markings
Its not a smoking gun because its missing several key pieces of information such as if the information was classified and if the header was removed... I mean look at the law cited in the OP link...
"Further, according to the Associated Press, the State Department said a review showed......
Thats what your post said.
Its of huge question if there is any violation of law here...
Only to those ignorant of how the classification system works, even when multiple who do have explained it.
I never knew that the FBI and the State Department were the same agency...
"Further, according to the Associated Press, the State Department said a review showed.....
No you are not. If you were, you wouldn't be protecting Hillary like this. As long as Hillary is in the race, no bernie nomination will happen. And clearly you will vote for hillary when bernie does not get the nomination.
That's sort of what all bernie supporters say.... like trump supporters, you all hide the fact that you will vote your party no matter what.
Many of which are FAUX scandals being politically manipulated. Is this one of them? Its too early for me to tell. But examples of FAUX scandals, Benghazi attack, "speaking fees", etc.
Benghazi was legitimate. People died, she lied about what happened and why. speaking fees just shows how much of a corporatist elitist scumbag she is. Why does she get your protection?
Why do you ignore the dozens of things she's been involved with from her foundation, using fbi files, swedish slush fund, and on and on and on..... when do you say "if it smells like ****, it's probably ****"?
Again, where is the verification that this information was classified
Again, you wouldn't "strip" anything to send "non-secure" unless that thing was classified. How many times do we have to tell you this is how it works?
Hillary Clinton calls on him to turn it into a "non-paper". She says, "turn into nonpaper w no identifying heading and send nonsecure" Lets look into what a "non-paper" is in regards to state department lingo.
geeze d00d...
The level of classification (e.g., Top Secret), the caveat “Special Access Required” or its
acronym “SAR,” and the program nickname (e.g., BUTTER POPCORN) or code word (e.g.,
DAGGER), will be annotated on the banner line at the head and foot of each document page or
media containing SAP information. T

The classification is in the header and the footer. She is not refering to making it non identifying in the subject line, (which would be strange) but to strip from the header/footer the classification markings. This is illegal.
Furthermore, why is the subject redacted? Where are the redaction codes?
Which reason, do you think the subject was redacted for?

"However, it’s not clear that the request was quite the smoking gun Clinton’s critics think it was. In her email, the former secretary directed staff to turn the talking points into “non-paper” before sending it through non-secure channels. In the State Department, the term “non-paper” appears to have a pretty specific meaning.
As about 30 seconds on Google will reveal, the Department of State Foreign Affairs Manual defines non-paper as, “A written summary of a demarche or other verbal presentation to a foreign government. The non-paper should be drafted in the third person, and must not be directly attributable to the U.S. Government. It is prepared on plain paper (
no letterhead or watermark). The heading or title, if any, is simply a statement of the issue or subject. (For example: ‘Genetically-Modified .. of facts that the department felt comfortable sharing with a foreign government – and that seems pretty likely given the context – it’s probably a stretch to suggest that the FBI will be opening a criminal inquiry about it anytime soon."

So which is it? that this document was never sent "in a non-secure manner", or that it's ok to send this document because of what it's speculated to be. Still begs the question as to why the subject is redacted with no code, and why the headers had to be stripped before one could transmit it unsecure. And if it wasn't sent at all, what was the classification of the document that she conspired with her aide to send non-secure?
I dealt with a lot of AAR's that were classified, If I even hinted at suggesting someone handle any of those documents like this, I would be in a heap of ****.
