Hillary Clinton may have resigned her secretary role at the State Department in 2013 — but her access to top secret and classified information didn’t end then.
Under Barack Obama, she was allowed to continue to view highly sensitive intel documents for years — well past her announced run for the presidency in April 2015, according to Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa. Why? Toward what possible end?
So she could better write her memoir.
File this in the “You’ve Got to Be Kidding Me” folder.
And it wasn’t just Clinton who kept the power of top secret access. It was six of her former staffers, who went by the tag of “research assistants,” Fox News reported.
Grassley, rightly so, is baffled — not just by the special privilege for Clinton and six of her staffers. But also by the fact that the justification for the access seems so waffley and weak. As he wondered: If the top-secret access was sincerely so Clinton could pen a better memoir, why did the Obama White House hide it for so long?

This makes Watergate look like a 7-11 shoplift operation.
Using the full power of our intelligence gathering capability to target political opponents, if proven, would be the worst scandal in U.S. history.
Does ValJar still have access?
Hussein?
The Moose?
Funny, I don’t recall the Army extending my Top Secret clearance past the day I left the service. Any of you?
I guess since Sandy “The Burgler” Berger is dead she didn’t have anyone to steal info for her...so something like this had to be arranged so she could steal it herself.
This has diaper hag’s finger prints all over it. The poorly constructed russky scandal brings me back to when she had BJ Fire the White House travel office staff and then say it was because they were corrupt when it turned out that they were anything but corrupt. It also brings me back to the “vast right wing conspiracy” she alleged when BJ was busted having an affair with an overweight 22 year old in the Oval Office sink. A real class act.
Obbummer was just being his typically empty headed self going along with the whole stupid Russian charade oblivious to the high crimes and misdemeanors he was engaging in, you know, because he is an idiot propped up by white guilt.
Hey, nothing to see. Hillary is a Clinton and a Democrat, that means she is above the laws that govern the rest of us.
(/sarcasm)
Lock her up!
My Navy clearance was only Secret but I vaguely recall being “read out” for it when my enlistment ended. Is that the correct term for the termination for a clearance?
The most powerful country in the world was being run like a HIGH SCHOOL.
Worse.
DD 2962 I believe was the debriefing form you had to sign before you left. You leave with a Secret or Top Secret clearance in your file, an 873 form. Its there after you leave, but it doesn’t give you access once you leave the service. Hillary, of course lives by her rules. If she had access to anything important, I’m guessing, it can be bought.
Yes it is.
No doubt she was on the distribution list for Rice’s unmasking intel briefs.
Valerie Jarrett has access to Obama’s bedroom when he’s there. Right now I understand he’s in Tahiti with a bunch of men (maybe the beautiful women of that island heard he was coming and fled to Tibet).
The Obama Regime read like a Political Whorehouse of Democratic Marxists, traitors and criminals. - Hillary, Jarrett, Rice, Rhodes, Axelrod, Dunn, Van Jones, Zeke Emanuel, Gruber, Rahm Emanuel, and now Farkas.
Sounds right. Every job I left where I had a clearance, signing a form acknowledging the end of access and that I had turned in all classified material was standard.
” Right now I understand he’s in Tahiti with a bunch of men (maybe the beautiful women of that island heard he was coming and fled to Tibet”

I find this entire thing really weird——first he’s on an island with Branson,then Tahiti.
Allegedly writing a book.
Very strange behavior,especially when he has a family.
.
I think the coin of the realm is blackmail...
I was signing so many forms that day, I’m thinking that I may have signed away my first-born child without realizing it. :=)
This whole leftie group consider themselves to be one corporate body and as such what one has access to they necessarily all have access to. They keep it by right of rule. They see themselves as Rightful Rulers who have been temporarily pushed out of power by a Usurper. They have dreams of killing the Usurper and retaking their rightful throne.
There was some complete Cuck on Tucker tonight. Council on Foreign Relations guy. Was a ‘lifelong Republican and advisor to Romney and McCain.’
He spent the entire interview repeating Dem talking points about Trump and calling for an ‘independent investigation.’
Trump is taking on TWO political parties as well as the Deep State.
ExcerptHere’s where you realize within those “more than 30 recipients” you find people like Secretary Hillary Clinton, Undersecretary Patrick Kennedy and various high level officials in the Office of the Secretary and its Executive Secretariat (S/ES) past and present. This is also where the Deputy Secretaries of Defense like Dr. Evelyn Farkas come into play. All of these officials would be accessing, or at least have access to, the President’s Daily Brief, and the unmasked intelligence within it.
