The Washington Post reports:

The FBI has begun looking into the security of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s private e-mail setup, contacting in the past week a Denver-based technology firm that helped manage the unusual system, according to two government officials.

Also last week, the FBI contacted Clinton’s lawyer, David Ken*dall, with questions about the security of a thumb drive in his possession that contains copies of work e-mails Clinton sent during her time as secretary of state.

The FBI’s interest in Clinton’s e-mail system comes after the intelligence community’s inspector general referred the issue to the Justice Department in July. Intelligence officials expressed concern that some sensitive information was not in the government’s possession and could be “compromised.” The referral did not accuse Clinton of any wrongdoing, and the two officials said Tuesday that the FBI was not targeting her.

The New York Times likely is still embarrassed about its use of the word “criminal” in association with Clinton, but this should work on page A1 tomorrow:

FBI investigation of Hillary’s emails is ‘criminal probe’

FBI investigation of Hillary’s emails is ‘criminal probe’
'

The FBI investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s unsecured email account is not just a fact-finding venture — it’s a criminal probe, sources told The Post on Wednesday.

The feds are investigating to what extent Clinton relied on her home server and other private devices to send and store classified documents, according to a federal source with knowledge of the inquiry.

“It’s definitely a criminal probe,” said the source. “I’m not sure why they’re not calling it a criminal probe.

“The DOJ [Department of Justice] and FBI can conduct civil investigations in very limited circumstances,” but that’s not what this is, the source stressed. “In this case, a security violation would lead to criminal charges. Maybe DOJ is trying to protect her campaign.”

Clinton’s camp has downplayed the inquiry as civil and fact-finding in nature. Clinton herself has said she is “confident” that she never knowingly sent or received anything that was classified via her private email account.

But the inspector general for the intelligence community has told Congress that of 40 Clinton emails randomly reviewed as a sample of her correspondence as secretary of state, four contained classified information.

If it is proved that Clinton knowingly sent, received or stored classified information in an unauthorized location, she risks prosecution under the same misdemeanor federal security statute used to prosecute former CIA Director Gen. David Petraeus, said former federal prosecutor Bradley Simon.

The statute — which was also used to prosecute Bill Clinton’s national security adviser, Sandy Berger, in 2005 — is rarely used and would be subject to the discretion of the attorney general.

Still, “They didn’t hesitate to charge Gen. Petraeus with doing the same thing, downloading documents that are classified,” Simon said. “The threshold under the statute is not high — they only need to prove there was an unauthorized removal and retention” of classified material, he said.

Clinton’s lawyer in the email probe is longtime Bill Clinton attorney David Kendall, who also repped Petraeus, who pleaded guilty earlier this year to providing classified documents to his mistress biographer.

“My guess is they’re looking to see if there’s been either any breach of that data that’s gone into the wrong hands [in Clinton’s case], through their counter-intelligence group, or they are looking to see if a crime has been committed,” said Makin Delrahim, former chief counsel to the Senate Judiciary Committee, who served as a deputy assistant secretary in the Bush DOJ.

“They’re not in the business of providing advisory security services,” Delrahim said of the FBI. “This is real.”

The Clinton campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment
 
The Moonie Post is almost as credible as James O'Keefe.

Almost.

Especially when they have an anonymous "informant". :rolleyes:
 
Maybe if she makes it in the white house they can bring back all the stuff they broke on the way out last time....
 
FBI Visits Denver Company Regarding Hillary Clinton Emails « CBS Denver http:/*******27OgQfhdDz
 
CBS

DENVER (CBS4) – A Colorado company is now a part of the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email system. The FBI is looking into the security of the server she used while she was secretary of state.
...
CBS4 sought a comment from Platte River Networks, but the company indicated it would have nothing to say. At this point the FBI is in the information gathering stage.

Despite the visit by the FBI, there is no formal investigation at this time. They are just trying to determine if one is warranted.
 
FBI takes the thumb drive from the CUNTS lawyer

Nothing t see here, MOONIE lies

lmao, b2b...
 
Haha, the defenders are out

Parsing, the FBI is investigating Clintons conduct, not Clinton

As abdurd as UD
 
So inspectors have now found "top secret" classified information on Hillary's private mail server.

Or have they?


The inspector general for the Intelligence Community notified senior members of Congress that two of four classified emails discovered on the server Clinton maintained at her New York home contained material deemed to be in one of the highest security classifications - more sensitive than previously known.

...


State Department spokesman John Kirby referred to the Intelligence Community’s disclosure as a recommendation to “upgrade” the two emails’ classification to “Top Secret.” In a statement, he said that “while we work with the Director of National Intelligence to resolve whether, in fact, this material is actually classified, we are taking steps to ensure the information is protected and stored appropriately.”


So they "upgraded" two of the found emails classification to "Top Secret" just in case? Prudent, but this implies that they were not classified as such when sent. According to the statement above from the Department of State they may not have been classified at all. If they were, were they marked as such? It would appear not, if neither the State Department or the Intelligence Community can determine their status without researching.

IF it turns out that these emails do in fact contain "Top Secret" information then the question becomes "Who was sending TS classified information to a private email account (its use was allowed at the time) without encrypting and labeling it a such?" After all, the fact that Hillary was using a private email account was known to anyone who saw the email was not @state.gov.

Personally, I think this should trigger a MUCH wider investigation into the use of private email accounts for government business. Hell, even I don't use my personal email account for business, official or not. A government official should know better. Investigate them all, especially those making the most noise about it. Because if we've learned anything over the years, the government officials screeching the loudest about something, are more often than not guilty themselves.
