WASHINGTON — Hillary Clinton managed to retain access to classified and top secret documents for herself and six staffers after she announced her run for the presidency in April 2015.
The State Department recently told the Judiciary Committee that six of Clinton’s former aides were referred to as “research assistants,” which enabled their clearance to go with them after their official service at the department ended.
Iowa Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley, chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, stated in a letter to Secretary of State Rex Tillerson Thursday: “Any other government workers who engaged in such serious offenses would, at a minimum, have their clearances suspended pending an investigation. The failure to do so has given the public the impression that Secretary Clinton and her associates received special treatment.”
After completing the FBI’s investigation into Clinton’s email server, Director James Comey said that “there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information,” and that individuals who are careless with such material are “often subject to security or administrative sanctions.”
When are these people going to start being prosecuted?
Just a footnote in history where again, no one is prosecuted.
May be the potty is providing them with extended coverage in the unlikely event of discovery.
When the f*ck is somebody, anybody going to get very publically fired? What the hell is Trump and his people doing? I know people say he’s got a clever plan or is playing the long game but you see precious little of that in the day to day actions. And where’s Congress and the Senate?
Just a bunch of real American heroes doing their job; nothing to see here.
It was going to be Hillary’s state department in a couple of years anyway
CAn we please finally put this career criminal behind bars where she should have been 30 years ago? All of those aides, too.
Fantastically understated by Grassley. People might get impressions? How about Criminal act? Prison? Public Caning?
@Bad_Brad.
I agree.
Once you’ve proven incompetence in handling classified information it seems your access to it continues uninterrupted. The swamp takes care of all its creatures.
Neither Hillary Clinton, Cheryl Mills, Huma Abedin, nor Jake Sullivan would ever have qualified for ANY confidential or secret clearance in any other government job. The fact that they had access AFTER they left is worthy of prosecution. I won’t hold my breath.
