State Dept. inspector general report sharply criticizes Clinton’s email practices
Washington Post ^ | May 25, 2016 | Rosalind S. Helderman and Tom Hamburger

The State Department’s independent watchdog has issued a highly critical analysis of Hillary Clinton’s email practices while running the department, concluding that she failed to seek legal approval for her use of a private email server and that department staff would not have given its blessing because of the “security risks in doing so.”

The inspector general, in a long awaited review obtained Wednesday by The Washington Post in advance of its publication, found that Clinton’s use of private email for public business was “not an appropriate method” of preserving documents and that her practices failed to comply with department policies meant to ensure that federal record laws are followed.

The report says Clinton, who is the Democratic presidential front-runner, should have printed and saved her emails during her four years in office or surrendered her work-related correspondence immediately upon stepping down in February 2013. Instead, Clinton provided those records in December 2014, nearly two years after leaving office.

The report is devastating, IMO. Still, nothing’s gonna happen to her. She’s above the law.

Good luck with that. Imam zero is a narcissist. He would have to admit he made an error in judgement. Never going to happen.

Only thing that can be done now since the republicans could not remove their heads from their rectums is to pick up the pieces after Trump wins and vote them all out beginning with eddie munster paul ryno.

Did the Washington Post notice that there was no inspector general during Hillary's tenure as Secretary of State?

" and his turning over all papers, computers, correspondence, etc. to the Feds."

Which will go here and never be seen again.
