In reply to the discussion: 2nd Review Says Classified Information Was in Hillary Clinton's Email [View all]TwilightGardener
(46,416 posts)33. Well, no--when it's a .gov unclassified system that either accidentally or deliberately
receives, stores, or sends classified material, then the issue is to be properly reported, investigated, and resolved--potentially with some folks getting reprimanded or getting into trouble (because the systems are separated physically). That's on the agency and the people within the agency who use and maintain the system. Private email accounts or servers--whose responsibility is it? If it was a one-time accident that was reported and stopped, no problem. If the account or server was SET UP in such a manner to be separated from normal agency oversight and responsibility, and no attempt was ever made to correct or prevent the flow or storage of classified info in the system--there may be a problem.

If it isn't posted in the HRC room, it isn't credible? What's a credible source, now?

Very unlikely, and as I have said during on air discussions, irrelevant to the whole private email

Classified material didn't "make its way" to her server. Someone sent it to her.
