Did anyone in this discussion happen to note that the FBI cannot unilaterally declassify or downgrade documents for which the Bureau was not the original classification authority? VERY little of the classified information handled by the State Dept. is originally classified by the FBI.

In other words, the CIA, Department of Defense, Homeland Security, or some other body originally marked them classified.

Hillary’s henchmen pressured the FBI to alter the documents for their benefit.

I mentioned it in an earlier thread with a similar topic. They pretty much asked the FBI to commit it's own felonies to try to sweep it under the table because they didn't have the authority to downgrade any classifications that they didn't originate and/or classify in the first place.
