Related: About this forumSorry Hillary, FBI Director Confirms Clinton Email ‘Investigation’ Not ‘Security Review’
http://lawnewz.com/high-profile/sorry-hillary-fbi-director-confirms-clinton-email-investigation-not-security-review/FBI Director James Comey held a pen and pad briefing with reporters on Wednesday where he provided some new insights about the Bureaus investigation into Hillary Clintons use of a private e-mail server.
Director Comey was asked during the briefing about Clintons continued characterization of the investigation as a security inquiry, according to Fox News.
[I am] not familiar with the term security inquiry, Comey replied. Were conducting an investigation. Thats what we do.
Clinton and her campaign have described the investigation as a security inquiry for months in what some see as an effort to downplay the seriousness of the matter. Clinton herself over the weekend in an interview on CBS News described the matter as a security inquiry. Furthermore, just this morning Clinton confidant Sidney Blumenthal appeared on CNN and described the matter as a security inquiry as he fumbled his way through a question about the e-mail issue from host Alisyn Camerota.

(626 posts)1. I can feel the extreme desire for Hillary to be indicted, destroyed.
It is a very familiar feeling around these parts.
Can you feel what I ate for breakfast? What color my socks are? What are the winning Powerball numbers?

But it will massively affect us all if it happens during the GE.

*** She cannot or will not follow rules.***
Why did she have a private server? Why did she hire Sid Blumenthal after Obama said 'no' to hiring him?
If she thinks she's above the law now, that rules don't apply to her, let's save ourselves a lot of grief & support someone who does have respect for the law & will make us proud while we still have a choice.

(24,721 posts)16. Sorry to break it to you, but there are a lot of people
who dislike both the GOP & Hillary Clinton.

(626 posts)18. Myself included. Difference is even though I dislike much about Hillary,
I am able to see the drastic, huge differences between her and any GOP.
I am able to put my personal feelings aside for the good of the Muslims, Latinos, women, black people, gay people he would harm.

However, I have to be proud of my vote.

Statement from the Inspectors General of the Intelligence Community and the Department of State Regarding the Review of Former Secretary Clinton's Emails
IC IG made a referral detailing the potential compromise of classified information to security officials within the Executive Branch. The main purpose of the referral was to notify security officials that classified information may exist on at least one private server and thumb drive that are not in the government's possession. An important distinction is that the IC IG did not make a criminal referral - it was a security referral made for counterintelligence purposes
