Unusual: Investigation into Hillary Clinton's private email is being run out of FBI headquarters
Business Insider ^ | 08/16/2015 | NATASHA BERTRAND

The FBI is investigating Hillary Clinton's private email server out of of its headquarters in Washington, D.C., in an "unusual move," the New York Times reported.

"Nearly all [FBI] investigations are assigned to one of the bureau’s 56 field offices," according to the Times.

"But given this inquiry’s importance, senior F.B.I. officials have opted to keep it closely held in Washington in the agency’s counterintelligence section, which investigates how national security secrets are handled."

Though Clinton's use of a private email address was not illegal and was permitted by State Department rules, the federal government has standards for how servers are built, how they are secured, and how their data is stored.

The FBI is looking into the configuration of the server that Clinton handed over to authorities.

Clinton has insisted that she never sent or received classified information at the time that it was classified and there has been no evidence that she broke the law.

However, the intelligence community's inspector general Charles McCullough III told Congress last week that he discovered two emails sent to Clinton that contained information classified as "Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information," which the government's highest levels of classification.

Maybe if the MSM repeats that enough times, people will believe it.

Yea I worked for the fed gov for 25 years and even the idea of using my personnel e-mail for government business was laughable much less my own server.

Ah...the Cigarette Man.

Haven’t thought about him in a long time.

He had a talent for disappearing whomever “They” wanted gone.

The question now, do They want Hillary to stay-or go.

Let’s see ... the FBI is part of and administered by the Department of Justice. Anyone getting the hint yet?

Where are people like “Anonymous” from “Primary Colors” fame, “Deep Throat”, Woodward, and Bernstein from the “All the President’s Men” days or defectors from Hillary’s camp that can leak the icky stuff? Someone has to spill at some point.

The sample of 40 emails from a body of over 30,000, where 2 of the 40 (or 5%) were top secret leads to a safe assumption that over 1500 emails may have been classified top secret - if the sample was a truly random sample and not a directed one. The story is unclear as to the method of ascertainment.

Where is/was the backup/failover server(s)? Komrade Kriminal Klinton is in the deep dog-doo up to the top of her pointy little head.

You got that right. All talk and no action GOP. Very nice hearings with absolutely zero results.
