EXCLUSIVE: State Dept Can’t Find Evidence Hillary Was Trained To Handle Classified Documents
The Daily Caller ^ | 7/10/16 | Richard Pollock

Posted on 07/10/2016 8:00:57 PM PDT by Nachum

A senior Department of State official claimed there is no documentation showing former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ever received training in the proper handling of classified materials, according to a June 30 Department of Justice filing in U.S. District Court.

The disclosure could buttress FBI Director James Comey’s testimony before a congressional committee that Clinton was perhaps not “sophisticated enough” to understand that the marking “C” on an email meant it was a classified document.

“It’s an interesting question whether she was sophisticated enough to understand what a C in parens means,” Comey said before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Wednesday. “It’s possible—possible—she didn’t understand what a (C) meant when she saw it in the body of the email like that.”

In the Freedom of Information lawsuit brought by The Daily Caller News Foundation, the department to date has failed to deliver any documents showing that Clinton ever enrolled and passed mandatory State Department courses that instructed officials in the proper handling of classified material.

“that shoots massive holes in the whole “most qualified candidate” narrative.”

Except where cultic propaganda prevails.

This reads as though somebody is trying to hand her a way out of her self created mess, but they are off base as Hillary Rotten Clinton knew from her days as a Senator all the rules. She’s lying again if she claims otherwise.

Okee Dokee...she spent 6 years on the Armed Services Committee but knew nothing about classified markings.

And btw, hasn’t a signed statement been produced (routine), in which she states she has been trained?

And also....if 100 percent of her communications were unsecure, wouldn’t she know that she would sooner or later transmit secret info unsecure?

How many people have covered this lady’s big wide a$$ over the past thirty years? We’ll probably never know the exact count, but safe to say more than fifty of them have given their lives ...and that, not voluntarily!!

Geez.

Why are we bothering with this annoying "election" thingee?

Why don't don't we just install Hillary as our Queen, because Clinton?

I mean, laws are optional for the Queen.

Mandatory training is optional for the Queen.

So, why should mandatory elections not be optional for the Queen?

You mean she had the balls to unilaterally decide that she was too important to bother with trivialities?

And nobody bothered to point it out?

WTF??

This is the first story coming from the government that is remotely believable in the last eight years.

BTW - federal departments have EXTENSIVE mandatory training ALL THE TIME.

I guess Lois Lerner skipped the mandatory "confidential taxpayer files" training, too...

Looks like James Comey skipped the "requirements for a felony indictment" classes...

Normally, to get access....even as a senator...since roughly 2004....you take a on-line course that amounts to an hour of training. It’s taught at the 8th grade level and dirt-simple. At the end, unlike the method prior to 2004....you now have to take a test and pass it before they give you the certificate or badge or card. The test, even I will admit....is not that simple. I’d take a guess that half the people who take the test will fail on the first go-around, and most will pass on the second attempt. So we are talking about 90 minutes of your time.

In her case as senator and state department chief....I’ll wager NOT one single training session can be documented. Her people probably haggled with the security folks and got her the badge on each single occasion with no training.

I sat around two years ago and watched a German live talk show...where Hillary had shown up to hype her new book, and they had a round-table with two significant German female leaders. It was like night and day....comparing the two German female leaders to Hillary, in terms of dialog and commentary. It was some 15-year old high school girl on some stage and she couldn’t contribute anything of substance in a live interview. The moderator helped to hype her new book and lob easy questions, but if you were a German watching the interview....you’d mostly laugh over the act seen.
