Sources: Comey acted on Russian intelligence he knew was fake

23. Bullshit. Violations of FOIA are not criminal violations.

They are enforceable by civil lawsuit, which is what Judicial Watch did. Public employees absolutely do decide on a daily basis what is personal and what is private. If the law was what you claim, every public servant would be under FBI investigation. Remember, Colin Powell recommended to Hillary that she use private email, which is what he did. And he never turned over his public emails, let alone his personal emails. Neither did Condoleeza Rice. When Hillary had a private email server, it was NOT against the rules to use a private email address. That changed after she left the State Department. However, it was never and still is not against the law, i.e. a criminal violation.

The reason the FBI was involved was, as part of responding to the Judicial Watch FOIA request, various intelligence agencies had to look at the emails again to determine what should be publicly released to Judicial Watch. About 6 emails were determined to be classified as part of that review, even though they were not deemed classified at the time they were sent. It was stuff like a forwarded newspaper article about drones. As Hillary correctly said, it was over-classification run amok. But once some were deemed classified, even though it was after the fact, then the FBI became involved to determine if classified documents were improperly handled. And as everyone knows, the FBI came to the conclusion that there were no violations of law.

It was a right-wing-inflicted wound, aided and abetted by some on the left with Clinton derangement syndrome.
