Hillary Clinton granted non-cleared people access to classified information, FBI Director James Comey testified Thursday.
But he could not definitively confirm that those with access, in this particular instance, her attorneys, had actually read the classified material, and a spokesman for Clinton sharply contested the assertion.
“Did Secretary Clinton's attorneys have the security clearances needed?” Oversight Chairman Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) asked Comey, who responded, “They did not.”
Asked whether that concerned him, the FBI director said, “Oh yeah, sure.”
But Clinton spokesman Brian Fallon tweeted, “To be clear, the lawyers who sorted through Clinton's emails had Top Secret-level clearance."
Clinton’s personal attorney David Kendall said last August that he received Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information clearance from the Justice Department in November 2013 and a Top Secret clearance from State in the year that followed. In the same letter, Kendall said that his law partner, Katherine Turner, received State clearance in September 2014.
“These State Department security clearances remain active. We obtained them in order to be able to review documents at the Department of State, to assist former Secretary Clinton in preparing to testify before the House Select Committee on Benghazi,” Kendall wrote in the letter to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), who wrote to Secretary of State John Kerry to say that Kendall's clearance was inadequate....

Again, you know that, and I know that, but Brian Fallon is, like most of his ilk, absolutely clueless. Clinton's lawyers may well have had a clearance at the level of the data, but they d-d sure did *NOT* have the "need to know", so they were still NOT CLEARED for the specific data involved, and thus should never have seen it.

I saw a guy go from Captain to Spec/4 for saying a codeword outside a SCIF.
Whatever you think, hoss.
I reiterate, if they did exactly that, then they are liable for one count of unauthorized receiving of classified material for each classified *PAGE* (not document), they viewed, because they could not possibly meet the second criteria for laying eyes on it, which is "need to know"...

He was lucky, that kind of thing *can* get you reduced to Pvt E-1, on your way to an "assignment" at USDP Leavenworth for a while, a long while...

Even the Inspector General for the State Department didn't have the required security clearances to read some of the emails that they were investigating and had to bring people in that had the required clearance to read them. Yet, her attorneys supposedly had the clearance. Fallon is spouting a bunch of BS.
google this to read a discussion from a self proclaimed FBI insider:
fbi-insider-leaks-all-clinton-foundation-exposed-involves-entire-us-government
One of his comments:
“All I can tell you about the SAPs is HRC had them, and she did not have proper authority to have any of them. They were leaked to her by someone, and she did sell them to overseas donors. Possessing them alone makes her guilty of treason. “
Brian Fallon is a LIAR!!!!! ALL DEMOCRATS ARE LIARS!
The last inner wall of republican free government, equal justice under the law, has been breached. The barbarians are pouring in.
The DOJ somehow can’t even find a misdemeanor violation by someone guilty of treason.
But, 99% of us still think their duty is limited to voting.
Funny how, if I were to allow anyone without a clearance to sit in front of a computer that had been connected to a classified network, even if it had not processed any classified data, an investigation would have to be done because I had endangered security....these folks were given full access to computers/devices that had actually processed TS/SCI.....
And that the votes will be counted properly.
The corrupticrats have gotten so brazen, we may expect a "comey" to announce the election results and defy us to prove otherwise.
It was all yoga and Chelsea’s wedding planning.
They received the clearance AFTER they did the deed.
“Clinton gave non-cleared people access to classified information.”
Let’s fix that statement: Clinton sold non-cleared people access to classified information.
I think we all know the Clinton m.o.

So they access but did not read anything?!!
They take people for fools.
“She had a very bad day today”
Can you elaborate on this?
nope..
did you follow the House of Rep’s yesterday and Comey?
The entire day was spend on Hillary’s Lying. she was the topic..of course she had a bad day...
Incorrect. All classified info is handled with the need-to-know approach. Compartmentalization is a when those with a needed to know are placed on a list or added to the compartment for a specific set of info.
