Intelligence Review: Yes, Hillary, Your Emails Were “Top Secret”

Well, well, well. Ruh roh, Raggy, looks like the former Secretary of State, in case you had any doubt whatsoever, remains a big fat liar. Remember those top-secret-not-top-secret emails (nice try, Politico!) Mrs. Clinton housed on her private server in her New York mansion, away from the prying eyes of both Congress and the American people? Remember when she said this…?

…and then she said this?

Ah, yes, MARKED classified. Nice CYA, Hills. Well, guess what, Hillary? Not only were hundreds of them, the piles of which keep coming, indeed classified, at least one of them was as classified as classified comes. From Fox News:

An intelligence community review has re-affirmed that two classified emails were indeed “top secret” when they hit Hillary Clinton’s unsecured personal server despite a challenge to that designation by the State Department, according to two sources familiar with the review.

The sources described the dispute over whether the two emails were classified at the highest level as a “settled matter.”

The agencies that owned and originated that intelligence – the CIA and National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency or NGA – reviewed the emails to determine how they should be properly stored, as the State Department took issue with their highly classified nature. The subject matter of the messages is widely reported to be the movement of North Korean missiles and a drone strike. A top secret designation requires the highest level of security, and can include the use of an approved safe.

The sources, who were not authorized to speak on the record, told Fox News that while the emails were indeed “top secret” when they hit Clinton’s server, one of them remains “top secret” to this day — and must be handled at the highest security level. The second email is still considered classified but at the lower “secret” level because more information is publicly available about the event.

The findings have been transmitted to the State Department, which continues to challenge the intelligence community’s conclusions about the classification of all the emails. But the department has no authority to change the classification since it did not originate the information.

So, despite complicit media assists, Mrs. Clinton cannot run from this train:

Earlier this month, Politico reported that the intelligence community was retreating from the “top secret” classification, a development that could have helped Clinton’s presidential campaign deflect allegations about mishandling classified material. Fox News can confirm it is true the handling of one email has changed since it was drafted and sent, but this change has no bearing on the “top secret” nature of the emails when first received on Clinton’s server. And this is what matters to the FBI probe.

Yeah, what’s a little national security breach here and there, right, Hillary?

Mrs. Clinton has forever disqualified herself from ever again holding public office. But that’s not just my opinion, it’s federal law:

Whoever willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, or destroys, or attempts to do so, or, with intent to do so takes and carries away any record, proceeding, map, book, paper, document, or other thing, filed or deposited with any clerk or officer of any court of the United States, or in any public office, or with any judicial or public officer of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.

Whoever, having the custody of any such record, proceeding, map, book, document, paper, or other thing, willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, falsifies, or destroys the same, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both; and shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States. As used in this subsection, the term “office” does not include the office held by any person as a retired officer of the Armed Forces of the United States.

Here’s hoping FBI Director James Comey shrugs off the immense pressure coming from the White House to let Clinton off the hook, and does the right thing and recommends prosecution. Hillary Clinton should not be running for president; she should be getting fitted for an orange jumpsuit complete with a corresponding inmate number. Were she a Republican candidate, you can bet your left arm she would be.
