Ed Henry at Fox News is reporting that another 150 emails in Hillary Clinton's private, unsecured email system had classified information in them. That brings the total to right around 500 emails with classified information improperly stored on the unsecured Clinton system.
Things just keep getting worse for Hillary. Simply put, there is no way that the presence of classified information on her unsecured email system was a mistake or even the result of sloppiness. Someone might slip up and put one or two bits of classified information on the unsecured email system. There could be a dispute about the classified nature of even a few dozen emails. There is no way, however, that 500 emails with classified information could end up on the private unsecured Clinton system absent a policy decision by Hillary to use that system despite the laws and regulations against such use. And remember, the 500 classified emails have been discovered after review of less than one - quarter of the total number of emails that Hillary turned over to the State Department. If the proportions continue, there may be more than 2000 classified emails on Hillary's private unsecured system. And, of course, we have no idea how much classified info was included in the 30,000 emails that Hillary ordered wiped from the system as "personal".
It is amazing to think that the head of the State Department felt it appropriate to ignore federal law so she could use her own server instead of the secure government system. Hillary had to know that the Russians, the Chinese and many others were probably hacking into here emails and getting access to national security information. How could Hillary think that her political need for secrecy from others in the government outweighed the national security interests of the USA?
We really are at the point where a grand jury needs to be empaneled to hear the evidence against Hillary Clinton. Unless there is something exculpatory about which we have not heard, she ought to be indicted for improper handling of classified information.
