That’s because this story is loaded with poor assumptions, such as an encrypted iPad (which is what it probably is) vs an iPad that has access to classified networks. The later (which is what they portray it as) is highly unlikely as classified networks cannot be accessed via wireless access points (WiFi).

That would work for me too.

He’s got all the tendencies of being homo. It’s a safe bet he’s sexually been with more men than women in his day. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have needed to create fake women he dated in his autobiography.

Exactly.

But any TS info saved locally is a violation of the law since it left government control and he no longer has a need to know.

Democrats think they’re above the law... as do common criminals.

I fail to see any difference.

You said “transmit classified materials”. I know classified networks don’t have Wi-Fi. Hillary and the Obama Administration both made it abundantly clear that they were willing to put classified information on unclassified networks.

The real point is 0 didn’t and doesn’t have the intellectual knowhow to do anything in his entire life but his enablers and comrades do, using him as a means to an end. Wrecking this country was a joint effort from the left and the Muslim in Chief was just a vehicle.

No telling how many teams like the Awan brothers or individuals like them are still dug in like chiggers to handle Executive branch IT after eight years of Obama and with people like Muzzie convert Brennan running the CIA.

I would guess that they would load the ipad with his briefing documents using a wired connection.

0ba didn’t and doesn’t have the intellectual knowhow to do anything but his enablers and comrades do. Wrecking this country was a joint effort from the left...... and the Muslim-in-Chief was just a vehicle.

BOOM---nails it. And ala the Clinton.....he's rolling on and on and on.

House mother Valerie Jarrett recently said she and the Obamas are focused on fostering the next generation of leaders. “He’s really interested in finding the Barack Obama 2.0s all across the country. He’s very interested, through the Obama center, to promote civic engagement.”

TRANSLATION: Get ready for another Clintonesque money machine.The Chicago criminals gonna do the Clinton Crime Family Hustle. They have no intentions of working for a living. The goal is get-rich-quick ala the Clintons.

==============================================

EXCERPTED---In recent months, Clinton Foundation director, Donna Shalala, said foundation officials have offered advice for former President Obama and his wife, Michelle, on their own foundation, which will focus on national and international community building programs.

“The Obama people called and asked some questions,” Ms. Shalala said.

QUOTE SOURCE https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/02/us/hillary-bill-clinton-foundation.html

======================================

GET READY FOR ANOTHER POLITICAL MONEY-MAKING MACHINE ---The Obamas already have two Clintonesque get-rich-quick foundations (two that we know of)....the mission statements sounding suspiciously like the Clintons.

SOURCE http://www.barackobamafoundation.org/

Obama said, "the change we seek will take longer than one term or one presidency. Real change—big change—takes many years and requires each generation to embrace the obligations and opportunities that come with the title of Citizen. " (TRANSLATION: Me and Michelle want the money pouring in faster than we can spend it.)

OBAMA FOUNDATION MISSION STATEMENT (cue laugh machine): The Obama Foundation will inspire the next generation of young leaders all over the world. It will convene the brightest minds with the newest ideas from across the political spectrum and draw strength from the rich diversity and vitality of Chicago, the city where the President and First Lady started a family and raised their daughters."

" But most of all, the Foundation will ask all of us to take on big challenges and to believe that we can meet them together. Our history and President Obama’s legacy give us hope that even the most difficult change is possible, and the Foundation exists to carry on that great, unfinished project of renewal and global progress.”

<><>Inform visitors about our civic rights and responsibilities and inspire citizens to get engaged.

<><>Empower individuals who are leading change around the world, and help develop new ways to enable all citizens to take action.

<><> Connect people from different communities and disciplines to create new approaches to solving our biggest challenges.

<><>Translate new ideas into concrete actions that will have a measurable impact, enlisting partners across all sectors to scale what works.”

(GAG) PLEASE PASS THE BARF BAGS.

Keep on believing that. Just like Hillary didn’t use her portable device to send/receive emails (that by nature would have been a wireless method).

And a VPN connection is well within the normal capabilities of an iPad, so the “wireless” aspect is somewhat of a moot point (though I won’t argue it is all that secure).

Classified Networks do not connect to the outside world. You can’t VPN into them. They don’t have wireless access points. An IPAD would not and would never be connected to a classified network, period even if they used a hardline connection.

Clinton’s emails were an unauthorized and unsecure connection to the State Department’s unclassified network. While the emails did contain classified material, the material was not native to the network. It was likely transferred from a classified network, stripped of it’s marking, and sent to her email.

The protocol would require that the secure communications room in the White House that gets information from DOD, State, CIA, and similar “secure “ sources is going to be set up so that no information goes into or out of that area by any means. Such an area will only have information leave in approved formats carrier by and to people with the proper security clearances.

So yes, no Blackberry in the secure area. That is what Hillary with Mills and Huma had violated so profoundly.

I guess I should elaborate that secure areas do have information coming in and going out, but that happens over totally secure and isolated systems. SIPRnet is one of these systems — see:
