Official: Withheld Clinton emails contain 'operational' intel, put lives at risk
Fox ^ | February 01, 2016 | Catherine Herridge

Posted on 02/01/2016 8:04:11 AM PST by xzins

EXCLUSIVE: Highly classified Hillary Clinton emails that the intelligence community and State Department recently deemed too damaging to national security to release contain “operational intelligence” – and their presence on the unsecure, personal email system jeopardized “sources, methods and lives,” a U.S. government official who has reviewed the documents told Fox News.

The official, who was not authorized to speak on the record and was limited in discussing the contents because of their highly classified nature, was referring to the 22 “TOP SECRET” emails that the State Department announced Friday it could not release in any form, even with entire sections redacted.

The announcement fueled criticism of Clinton’s handling of highly sensitive information while secretary of state, even as the Clinton campaign continued to downplay the matter as the product of an interagency dispute over classification. But the U.S. government official’s description provides confirmation that the emails contained closely held government secrets. “Operational intelligence” can be real-time information about intelligence collection, sources and the movement of assets.

or will he throw her under the bus and have the last laugh???

Nope. Saving his own ass is everything to Obama. Indict Hillary and she won't go down quietly; the Ubershrew knows where the bodies are buried.

At this point what difference does it make? When all is said and done she doesn’t care.

Hitlery is in a bad spot no matter what.

If she manages to get the nomination, she will be “Swiftboated” without mercy. I can’t wait to chip in.

It’s time to end all this with Hillary and go through with the indictment.

American victims as well as citizens deserve to see her punished...

I am wondering if any of Clinton’s unsecured emails involved Benghazi. I wonder if she stupidly gave intel to Libyan bad guys, that motivated or informed them in ways that allowed them to plan the attack.

Catherine Herridge has reported that the FBI DID recover those “wiped” emails. She also said that Pagliano, the IT guy Hilly was using (he’s plead the 5th & gone the extra step to not turn over documents because they might also incriminate him) wasn’t very professional in is wiping of the emails off the server.

Here’s an FR link from her twitter account ... I actually saw a video of her talking about it:

“You can’t pardon someone for something they haven’t been charged with.”

Ford pardoned Nixon.

I think that the FBI, which has basically promised to leak information if she isn’t indicted, has started doing just that because the writing is on the wall.

Just a hunch, but my mom told me to always go with my first hunches.

Shi will not be indicted because that must be done by the AG who must first be told to do it by the Sultan who must get a direction from the Vizier VJ.

Treason and selling information to enemies abroad will be dismissed by the MSM and the Establishment and will be considered a badge of supreme dedication and accomplishment by the supporters of Mrs. Bill.

The DOJ with the approval of the AG Lynch who will seek the approval of the President Barak Hussein who must have the approval of The Power Valerie Jarrett. It is really up to the Jarrett.

Yep, and I disagreed with it then, too.

A president could authorize a crime and put a pardon paper in the guy’s hand ahead of time.

Why is she Damaged Goods? The Democrats control much of the vote count and are creating new Democrat voting citizens even now in wholesale lots and placing their illegals in communities where they will be the margin of victory for Democrats, in states that have not passed voter ID laws and which will be watched closely to ensure that no poll worker is permitted to question the bona fides or how many times voting of any prospective voter.

The Republican is going to have to receive at least 2 to 1 among legitimate voters, possibly a lot more.

Catherine Herridge is an impeccable reporter.

HRC would call her a right wing conspirator.

>>...and Biden will be a much stronger candidate than Hillary.<<

Which is why I’m really hoping that FBI Director Comey is letting the investigation play out and doesn’t forward a recommendation for charges until after the Dem convention in late July.

It’s about time that delaying tactics come home to roost for the Dems.

I could see it happening, and Biden will be a much stronger candidate than Hillary.


Biden has run in the democratic primaries twice and was always a 2nd tier candidate who generated little enthusiasm as a younger man. I don’t think he would be a much stronger candidate than Hillary who has been running for a long time, plays the female card, and has Billy Jeff (still popular).

Biden’s main “strength” for the Obama administration is generally viewed by voters as the weakness of this administration (foreign policy). Biden brings the negatives of the Obama administration with him by association and that is as much a hindrance as a help.

I think if Hillary has to bow out that the base of the DNC will attempt to draft Elizabeth Warren who is viewed as a dynamic progressive who has the whole fresh face (really no record) thing working for her. She can also play the female card, bring out the idealistic youth vote, and appeals to Sanders voters.

Just my opinions, but I think if Biden had stood a chance in internal polling he would have entered the race. Warren offers the best chance in the field using the traditional electoral college plan of the DNC. She would only have to concentrate on the swing states and secure the traditional blue states easily.
