This is a real issue. Any thinking person, including and especially the in the know Dems, knows it is a serious issue. Those that support Hillary do so despite that understanding and hope that none of Hillary's peeps face any criminal action.

It could have been considered a non-issue up until and including the congressional hearings.

It became a real issue when the State IG and the FBI initiated investigations. The fact that at least 2 federal judges have found some evidence of bad faith makes it a real issue too.

Saying it is a non issue is a practice of denial, double think, lying or ignorance.

Nope, the laws on keeping state secrets and confindetial materials are clear: Betty Karlson May 2016 #46
Nothing was labeled classified at the time. CrowCityDem May 2016 #49
So it was designated classified after it had already been in the public domain? Betty Karlson May 2016 #50
That's exactly right. It happens all the time. CrowCityDem May 2016 #66
