Dozens of Clinton Emails in Latest Release Contain This Classified Info
Dozens of emails in the State Department’s latest release of Hillary Clinton emails contain information now deemed classified by the department.
The release includes nearly 3,900 new emails. Of them, more than 200 have a “B1” marking, which means they contain classified information – though some may be duplicates. . .
Almost all of the emails were “confidential,” the lowest level of classification, while three emails were declared “secret,” a mid-tier level for information that could still cause serious damage to national security if made public . . .
Anne-Marie Slaughter, director of State’s Office of Policy Planning, lamented in an email conversation that included Clinton on the antiquated nature of the agency’s IT infrastructure, writing “NO ONE uses a State-issued laptop and even high officials routinely end up using their home email accounts to be able to get their work done quickly and effectively.”
Former State Department chief of staff Cheryl Mills replied, ““[A]s someone who attempted to be hacked (yes I was one), I am not sure we want to telegraph how much folks do or don’t do off state mail b/c it may encourage others who are out there.” (Read more from “Dozens of Clinton Emails in Latest Release Contain This Classified Info” HERE)
