Clinton resigned as Sec of State in 2013 so the incumbent was John Kerry at the time when this was going on. So I bet Lurch’s fingerprints are on this somewhere.
Within the State Department, the Assistant Secretary for Intelligence and Research (INR) would normally be involved in the production and dissemination of intelligence product. This individual just happens to have been nominated by Obama in 2014 and is still the guy in charge of the INR. I don’t know if this is a political appointee or not but I find it perplexing that the Trump administration has kept so many Obama holdovers in key positions.
Congress has now turned it attention to State so we may find out.
The interesting thing about Hillary resigning in 2013 is that she maintained her clearance and access to the State computers long after she resigned. She had access to whatever State knew about all of this right through the election.
If I recall correctly, you don’t need a subpoena to compel a current government employee to talk to the FBI, etc. If they hold a clearance, the government may be able to compel them to do another poly.
Strange how Lurch has managed to stay completely out of sight on this whole issue.
