When I first read the email I KNEW she would spin it like this. The only way to prove she had him do this in a way that was against policy is if he actually sent the information with classified in it. And if she didn’t report it as a violation of classified information handling.
We know she wouldn’t have reported it, so the only question is does the FBI have the actual file that was transmitted?
Of course — she is setting up Jake Sullivan to blame, given all his meticulous expertise she relied upon. He should have imagined that H meant only the unclassified part, not matter what she wrote.
If H wanted only the unclassified data, why would she have Jake Sullivan strip off the headings (she sure did come up with that idea fast, huh). Wouldn’t it be much easier, and raise no (at least fewer) legal issues, for Sullivan to just type an email with the unclassified content? What she wanted wasn’t some giant document.
Next — The State Dept has said they can’t find any evidence of the email being sent, therefore of Sullivan’s email itself. That raises new red flags. Was Sullivan using a private email account too? Hillary supposedly turned over all her work-related emails — why wasn’t this included? This implies it was deleted either by Hillary, or her crack team on her responsibility. We all know those 30,000 deleted messages were things she wanted to hide.
