Security experts say that if Hillary Rodham Clinton retained her government security clearance when she left the State Department, as is normal practice, it should be suspended now that it is known her unprotected private email server contained top secret material.
“Standard procedure is that when there is evidence of a security breach, the clearance of the individual is suspended in many, but not all, cases,” said retired Army Lt. Gen. William Boykin, who was deputy undersecretary of defense for intelligence in the George W. Bush administration. “This rises to the level of requiring a suspension.”
A State Department official declined to comment on whether Mrs. Clinton still holds her clearance or whether it is under review by the Bureau of Diplomatic Security, which awards and suspends security clearances.
“The department does not comment on individuals’ security clearance status,” the official said. . .

She’ll just get it back after her swearing-in. The president is the grantor, which is why Barack Obama has a security clearance when you know he could never pass a background check.
Already? Benghazi was only three years ago. These guys are brutal
S
What difference does it make now? The horse is already out of the barn.
Do you really think she’s going to be sworn in?
I don’t think she’ll make the primary.
“........it should be suspended now that it is known her unprotected private email server contained top secret material.”.............
It’s a bit too late now as the protect Hitlary circus continues. “Quick, lock the door, the cow has escaped.”
Since she has a carpet-close symbiotic relationship with
al Qaeda/Moslem Brotherhood, why does she have
any security clearance, in the first place.
Oh, I forgot, they are in the White Mosque.
I’m just saying it’s all moot if she wins. There is no way Barack could have passed the background checks I had to go through and I sure wasn’t a senior government official.
What government position does Mrs. Clinton still hold that requires her to have clearance ?
She is simply a citizen...nothing more..
I suppose this puts the target on Mrs. Clinton’s back (removing her security clearance) in an investigative sense?
What it might mean? Maybe, Mrs. Clinton does not get national security briefings or Memos from her successors asking for recollections or advise since her term as SoS? Out-of-the-Loop, so to speak.
I’m like you. I have no idea. Just grasping for some kind of meaning in a suspension.
Some former federal officials retain their clearances. That's how Sandy Burger (Clinton national security adviser) gained access to the classified documents he stole from the National Achieves.
WIKIPEDIA:
On July 19, 2004, it was revealed that the U.S. Department of Justice was investigating Berger for unauthorized removal of classified documents in October 2003 from a National Archives reading room prior to testifying before the 9/11 Commission. The documents were five classified copies of a single report commissioned from Richard Clarke covering internal assessments of the Clinton Administration's handling of the unsuccessful 2000 millennium attack plots. An associate of Berger said Berger took one copy in September 2003 and four copies in October 2003.[14] Berger subsequently lied to investigators when questioned about the removal of the documents.[15]
The cow escaped three years ago and has been living a full life on the neighbors farm all this time
The REALLY intelligent community wants far more than having her security clearance suspended and wants the justice due her husband.
They’re going to need to do something fast - in 2007 Obama had been campaigning since Feb.
Taking way something everyone else already has and the damage has been done
She’ll get it or keep it as a presidential candidate .... If she wins the nomination I believe they start giving them briefings
What difference does it make? She has her network of informers lackies and donors who believe the Clintons and the democrat party are above nation
Don ‘t forget to look into Huma Abedin’s role in all of this. If they do I predict she’ll leave the U.S. and they will uncover a huge amount of classified information that was being passed on to the Muslim Brotherhood and terrorists. I imagine she’ll even write a book like “Master Spy: My Life as a Mole in the White House for 20 + years”.
> There is no way Barack could have passed the background checks I had to go through and I sure wasn’t a senior government official.
I’m huessing he had a rich billionaire pay people to look the other way.
I want her heartbeat suspended so the GOPe will stop using her as a boogie man to scare weak minded voters into supporting the approved candidate.
