Hillary Clinton Receives 1st Classified Briefing as Democratic Nominee
Good Morning America via Yahoo ^ | August 27th, 2016 | JOSH HASKELL and LIZ KREUTZ

Hillary Clinton spent Saturday morning at an FBI facility near her New York home meeting with staffers from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence who briefed her on major threats and emerging concerns around the world.

Clinton arrived at the office in White Plains, New York, which is roughly 20 minutes from her Chappaqua home, about 9 a.m. The meeting lasted over two hours and she attended it alone, a campaign aide said.

The briefing comes 10 days after her main rival, Donald Trump, received his first classified briefing as the Republican Party’s nominee.

Trump took two top advisers to his briefing: New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, a former Defense Intelligence Agency director who has been an outspoken and sometimes controversial supporter of Trump.

Because of the sensitivity of the information discussed during presidential candidate briefings, the sessions must take place in locations with secure rooms, known as Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIFs). The FBI's office in White Plains has such rooms.

While some top-secret information could have been discussed, the briefing did not include the nation's most sensitive secrets, particularly information on sources, methods and operations.

Many of Clinton’s critics have questioned whether she should receive a classified briefing after what they say is the reckless way she handled sensitive information when she was secretary of state.

Ten days after Trump and only her. Sources, Methods and current operations specifically excluded.

I'm thinking the Security Apparatus does not trust Clinton. Even though she once held TS/SCI/LIMDIS...she no longer does.

I wonder how much she’ll sell what she heard for? We’re so screwed if she steals this election.

They just gave her a list of potential contributors.

I’ll bet she smiled the whole time.

The fact the FBI would even agree to give Hitlary a secure briefing is disgusting and pathetic and makes the FBI about as credible and trustworthy as Hitlary.

Immediately after the conclusion of the briefing, her aids began compiling lists of potential buyers for the information given.

Yeah, I doubt she by herself is capable of absorbing the details of a briefing, all it will mean to her is screeching, “HUMA, GET X-Y-Z BAD GUY ON THE PHONE FOR ME, I SMELL A DEAL!!” immediately after walking out.

I agree 100% with your assessment. How *can she* be trusted? She sells out whatever juicy intel she's ever received. This is a joke. Everyone knows it.
