The FBI went to bat for Hillary Clinton on Tuesday, saying that handling emails with classified information even when its marked isnt enough to prove she had knowledge or intent to break the law.
In a letter to congressional investigators, the FBIs chief liaison to Capitol Hill said Mrs. Clinton did handle three messages with a (C) mark next to paragraphs, ostensibly indicating the following information as classified. But Jason V. Herring said thats not enough to show she was negligent.
Mr. Herring also questioned whether the laws against handling classified material in a grossly negligent way would hold up in court, saying the FBI has long been suspect.
The fact that Secretary Clinton received emails containing (C) portion markings is not clear evidence of knowledge or intent, Mr. Herring said in a letter to House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz, a Republican, and Rep. Elijah E. Cummings, the ranking Democrat.
Mr. Chaffetz on Monday had sent a letter laying out four different areas where he said Mrs. Clinton may have lied to Congress and calling for her to face perjury charges, including over the (C) markings.

Contradicting self? Helluva an argument!
Death row.
A document does not have to be marked classified to be classified.
Anything moving across her server was classified if she was commingling classified documents with it.
No, remember Vlad the Impaler. Better.
sick of this shi#. I can be done for a parking ticket, but she can have an illegal server in her basement, send classified material over the illegal server, then lie about it whilst collecting money off governments for her foundation and then avoid taxes..
How can anyone vote for this corruption is beyond me.
Well, yes, your honor, there was clearly a sign there at the intersection that had “stop” on it, but I did not intend to run it, ergo, you can’t fine me.
The (c) marking (confidential) despite being a low level shows that there was definitely some mixing of the streams of class and unclass data. I would like to see an analysis of the secret level data to see how much was copied verbatim out of other sources. Comey covered for Clinton by saying the TS/SCI/SAP data was comprised of discussions of those subjects and not sharing the source data. Still a huge issue because SAP data gets people killed, such as the Iranian nuke engineer. My guess is the Russians and Chinese were competing to see who could give that information to the Iranians.
Kick your idiot son in the @ss, please.
Hello, the FBI, DOJ, CIA, DHS, DOE, Supreme Court, SEC, FEC, Congress are all curropt.
Surprise Suhprize.. don’t we all keep a email server in the basement bathroom?
Examine the cookies, FBI, and not the recipes. We all knows how low the Clinton’s will stoop for a bribe.
Never have so many toiled so hard to keep the SSClinton garbage barge afloat.
Makes ya real proud to be a part of it all, eh? We pay for it in the end.
stacked deck or what?
I wonder what foreign U.S. assets are thinking these days. And how about talking new assets into siding with the U.S.?
Unfortunately, no. And that's one of the scandals of this whole episode.
The state.gov email system that Hillary should have been on instead of her own private server is not a classified system. There is a totally separate system for classified information.
The classified info she got on her private server was originated through the unclassified state.gov system and it never should have been there in the first place.
“F these people. I mean really? F them.”
I’d rather hang them. Maybe stand them in front of a firing squad but no lethal injection.
Regardless, Hill needed to be as protective of government emails as she was of Chelsea’s wedding crap and her “yoga” sessions.
Well if that’s the case , why did it take them a year to do the investigation ?
True. Also true is that we all know she damn well intended to use her own private server to hide her activities, and she intended to erase any incriminating evidence.
The only time that 'intended' should even be considered would be if she Didn't actually follow through with it. But she did. Ergo, she not only intended to do it, she did it.
If you were corrupt yourself, and rich off ill-gotten gains, you would probably vote for her. Since most of the ruling elite are corrupt, and their minions are as well.... that should explain why Hillary has their support.
Trump needs to fire them all
