FBI steps up interviews in Clinton email probe

42. I am more aware than you know..

but the key is willful intent, or in the other extreme - gross negligence. None of that applies here. And it also doesn't even apply because none of the information in question was actually classified when it was exchanged.

For example, information that is in some contexts classified routinely gets published in the media. It isn't a violation of law. People can come up with info and have no connection to classified sources. That info can then be copied and inserted into a document that gets classified; or simply parallel the sources. It doesn't mean anybody revealed classified info, yet it is both classified and in the public domain.

The interpretation you reference is simply wrong in fact and practice. There are dozens of CFR's, presidential directives, and agency policies that apply in different ways. You can cherrypick, but it isn't the way the law is enforced either in policy nor in practice.

Do you have any case law to reference? Probably not. Patreus is probably the closest parallel, but what he did was far different. He knew he had classified information, the information was labelled as such, and he exposed it to a third party.

That is the difference between a serial killer and someone who simply clears their throat in what gets interpreted as an aggressive manner.

Haters gotta hate I guess. Nothing is going to happen to clinton as a result of the info in that particular issue (who knows if other info exists - maybe - maybe not). The fbi likely won't even focus on her at this point. Politico is not exactly an impartial news source here. Neither is Fox.

The info in the links isn't compelling. It also isn't the way the govt works. Just like email isn't the way the state department runs its communications.
