WASHINGTON — Hillary Rodham Clinton exclusively used a personal email account to conduct government business as secretary of state, State Department officials said, and may have violated federal requirements that officials’ correspondence be retained as part of the agency’s record.

Mrs. Clinton did not have a government email address during her four-year tenure at the State Department. Her aides took no actions to have her personal emails preserved on department servers at the time, as required by the Federal Records Act.

Ya, the dems like to pass laws for the rest of us to follow, but they do as they please.

The latest rationalization out of the Clinton camp is that Bush used private email for a lot of correspondence.

Jeb Bush. :p

Bush did use a private account, and it was always public knowledge. He was not required by Florida law to use a state account, and it seems unlikely his emails would pose national security problems.

Hillary's people also said that using her own account was within the spirit of the law, because all of her emails to and from others in the State Dept. were saved on the other end.

True, but what about emails to foreign officials asking for contributions to the Clinton Foundation? I suppose the Saudis and others have those saved on their systems. No problem.

The AP reports that not only did Hillary not use government secure email, but that the system she used was her own private system, set up in her home in MY.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The computer server that transmitted and received Hillary Rodham Clinton's emails — on a private account she used exclusively for official business when she was secretary of state — traced back to an Internet service registered to her family's home in Chappaqua, New York, according to Internet records reviewed by The Associated Press.

The highly unusual practice of a Cabinet-level official physically running her own email would have given Clinton, the presumptive Democratic presidential candidate, impressive control over limiting access to her message archives. It also would distinguish Clinton's secretive email practices as far more sophisticated than some politicians, including Mitt Romney and Sarah Palin, who were caught conducting official business using free email services operated by Microsoft Corp. and Yahoo Inc.

According to CBS local, she broke no law because the law did not exist when she was Secretary of State.
President Barack Obama signed a bill last year that bans the use of private email accounts by government officials unless they retain copies of messages in their official account or forward copies to their government accounts within 20 days. The bill did not become law until more than one year after Clinton left the State Department.

There are no copies, except on her own server.

Petraeus had secrets that a biographer had access to read at his home.

Clinton has all of her emails on her server at her home, and now she must have assistants or aides reading all of them, to decide if they are harmless enough to release to Congress and State Department.

The only difference I see is the number of people seeing the possible top secret material and who they were working for.

I heard the penalty for each 'secret document' held in unsecure fashion is up to 1 year jail time and $100,000. Also the inability to ever hold elected office.

It just keeps getting better.

Fox News has exclusively obtained an internal 2011 State Department cable that shows Secretary of State Clinton’s office told employees not to use personal email for security reasons, while at the same time, HRC conducted all government business on a private account. Sent to Diplomatic and Consular Staff in June 2011, the unclassified cable, with Clinton’s electronic signature, makes clear to “avoid conducting official Department from your personal e-mail accounts” and employees should not “auto-forward Department email to personal email accounts which is prohibited by Department policy.”

According to Politico, the State Dept. has had a written rule since 2005 forbidding use of personal email accounts for official business.

The policy, detailed in a manual for agency employees, adds clarity to an issue at the center of a growing controversy over Clinton’s reliance on a private email account. Aides to Clinton, as well as State Department officials, have suggested that she did nothing inappropriate because of fuzzy guidelines and lack of specific rules on when and how official documents had to be preserved during her years as secretary.

But the 2005 policy was described as one of several “clear cut” directives the agency’s own inspector general relied on to criticize the conduct of a U.S. ambassador who in 2012 was faulted for using email outside of the department’s official system.

“It is the Department’s general policy that normal day-to-day operations be conducted on an authorized [Automated Information System], which has the proper level of security control to provide nonrepudiation, authentication and encryption, to ensure confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the resident information,” the Department’s Foreign Affairs Manual states.

Hillary turned over some 55,000 pages emails from her private account, hdr22@clintonemail.com, out of some unknown larger number. She now urges the State Dept. to release them to the public, knowing that it will take weeks, if not months, to determine which can and can't be released. Hillary and her staff now refer any questions to State.

Meanwhile, Fox News (and we all know how they lie) reports that a hacker has found the existence of many more email addresses at that domain.

The source says it appears Clinton established multiple email addresses, including hdr@clintonemail.com, hdr18@clintonemail.com, hdr19@clintonemail.com, hdr20@clintonemail.com, and hrd21@clintonemail.com.

Other email addresses include h.clinton@clintonemail.com, Hillary@clintonemail.com, contact@clintonemail.com, and mau_suit@clintonemail.com.

It’s not clear whether Clinton used any or all of these email addresses. It’s also unclear whether her aides used them.

If the server is yours, whomever has admin authority has access to ALL of the emails, regardless of the user/account name.

All of the people using that domain do not necessarily work for the Department of State, however, all of those employed by the Federal government working in the State Department are required to use email accounts that are a part of a state.gov domain.

Maybe......

We also don't know the filters and rules setup on the server. They could be forwarded, spoofed replies, or instantly printed (on a printer anywhere in the world) and deleted. There are a million options if you control the server.

Not to mention they can be accessed by anyone with admin access.

Try this scenario

Hillary writes an email to "someone" and prior to hitting send she saves the email as a draft. It goes in her draft folder

" Someone" in another city logs into the server and opens that email as if he is Hillary and reads it, responds within the email, doesn't send it, saves it still as a draft. Hillary then logs in and reads the reply built into the email. Then deletes the draft. Guess what.....said email never really was communicated across the Internet etc. it never existed. How do you find that one unless you have access to the server, physically. How about you just open that server up and change hard drives every month or two? Toss the hard drive in the trash or the local lake? A million possibilities exist

We won't even get into using multiple email data files that can be transferred via ftp or some other protocol and opened and read anywhere. Btw, this can be automated very easily

Part of what is always missing in the instances of the general press covering things like the current Hillary email issue and the IRS emails is the lack of salient technical details that would make it easier to decide what are the different controls -- what can and can not be done, where copies or drafts reside, etc.

In general, if the software is using POP, the draft will reside on the device being used to create/send the email, IMAP, such as Gmail, a draft copy is on the server.

There were other addresses under other names. The point is that Hillary used hdr22, and that others such as hdr19, hdr20, etc., were most likely also hers.

Chelsea Clinton was given one, but under a pseudonym, Diane Reynolds, which she frequently used when she checked into hotels. Huma Abedin, Mrs. Clinton’s longtime aide and surrogate daughter, was also given a coveted clintonemail.com address.

The White House has recalibrated the president's statement that he learned about Hillary's email system when he read about it in the media.

The story now is that Obama did exchange some unknown number of emails with Hillary at her private address, but he didn't know how large a problem it was. Or care, apparently.

“Yes, he was aware of her email address. He traded emails with her,” Earnest said. “But he was not aware of her personal email server or that she was using it exclusively for all her business.”

Hillary gave a press conference today, explaining why she used her own email system. It was because if she used her system for personal emails and the State Dept. system for government business, she would have to carry two phones or other devices, and apparently that was beyond her capability. Or that of whichever flunky carries her stuff. I have heard rumors of some newfangled phones that can access two different email systems, but I guess they don't have those in Washington yet.

She then said that she had already given all of her work related emails to the State Dept. And she seems to have said that she deleted all of her personal emails, but then said that the government would not be allowed access to her server because its contents were private.

But hey, what difference does it make.

Some people who worked at the State Dept. say that she used her own system because she and her minions didn't trust the career people at State.

State Department staffers viewed Hillary Clinton’s use of a personal email account as a symptom of a deeper divide — and distrust — between her tight inner circle and the professional bureaucracy she led, two former staffers told BuzzFeed News.

Some think the fact that she used the personal account, and went to extra lengths like setting up her own email server, is a symbol of mistrust between her and the career State Department officials.

“They never trusted anybody” at State, one former State Department official said of Clinton and her coterie. The former official said that everyone in the State Department press office at the time was familiar with the practice and found it “strange.”

Yeah, that sounds like the right time frame. :rolleyes:

Internet business records show that the domain clintonemail.com was registered Jan. 15, 2009 -- a week before she was sworn in as secretary of state. The domain was registered to Justin Cooper, a longtime adviser to former President Bill Clinton. Sec. Clinton would go on to use the email, hdr22@clintonemail.com.

And the server appears to be in their house in Chappaqua, which is where they lived after Bill left office.

At least Hillary's e-mail problems stopped interest in the following real crimes:

The only racism I see around here is the slimy attacks on Ben Carson. By liberals, of course, because liberals are the true racists, believing that blacks can't get along without the elite guidance and protection of Big Brother in Washington.

And the bigger joke is that liberals see Hillary as a role model and champion for women. She is where she is solely and entirely because she married Bill Clinton and put up with his endless infidelity and scandals because it was worth it to her to ride his coat tails to fame and power. She has accomplished nothing on her own. That helps women's rights? That's what little girls should look up to?

Hillary claims the use of a private email server is no problem because all government business was saved at the government end of the exchange of emails.

Not necessarily, says the State Dept.

But the State Department disclosed on Friday that until last month it had no way of routinely preserving senior officials’ emails. Instead, the department relied on individual employees to decide if certain emails should be considered public records, and if so, to move them onto a special record-keeping sever, or print them out and manually file them for preservation.

This patchwork system, reflecting a broader confusion and slowness throughout the government as federal agencies struggle to catch up with the digital age, raises the possibility that some emails from Mrs. Clinton to other State Department officials may have been lost altogether.

In a briefing with reporters on Friday, Jen Psaki, a spokeswoman for the State Department, acknowledged that the system in place under Mrs. Clinton was “imperfect,” and said the department was still trying to establish a comprehensive document retention program.

I love cheap political drama, and it looks like there is more to come. Ed Klein at the NY Post says that Valerie Jarrett is behind the Hillary email story, and that Bill Clinton is furious about it.

“My contacts and friends in newspapers and TV tell me that they’ve been contacted by the White House and offered all kinds of negative stories about us,” one of Bill’s friends quotes him as saying. “The Obamas are behind the e-mail story, and they’re spreading rumors that I’ve been with women, that Hillary promoted people at the State Department who’d done favors for our foundation, that John Kerry had to clean up diplomatic messes Hillary left behind.”

Then, according to this source, Bill added: “The Obamas are out to get us any way they can.”

...
Jarrett was said to be livid that most Democrats running for election refused to be seen campaigning with the president. She blamed the Clintons for marginalizing the president and for trying to wrestle control of the Democratic Party away from Obama.

And she vowed payback.

The recent Time Magazine cover story about Hillary was titled: "The Clinton Way: They write their own rules. Will it work this time?" Probably.

Time describes the details on the email submission process. Hillary had about 62,000 emails on the server. About 30,000 of those were deemed relevant by Her Highness and were printed out (about 55,000 pages) and submitted to the State Dept. The rest may or may not have been deleted. As a minor quibble, government rules require electronic files, not hard copies.

The "relevant" emails were determined by a word search, first looking for those to or from a ".gov" address, and then by a few other criteria. Apparently none of the emails were reviewed for actual content, whether submitted or not.

And they lived happily ever after.

Maybe......

We also don't know the filters and rules setup on the server. They could be forwarded, spoofed replies,

or instantly printed (on a printer anywhere in the world) and deleted. There are a million options if you control the server.

Not to mention they can be accessed by anyone with admin access.

Try this scenario

Hillary writes an email to "someone" and prior to hitting send she saves the email as a draft. It goes in her draft folder

" Someone" in another city logs into the server and opens that email as if he is Hillary and reads it, responds within the email, doesn't send it, saves it still as a draft. Hillary then logs in and reads the reply built into the email. Then deletes the draft. Guess what.....said email never really was communicated across the Internet etc. it never existed. How do you find that one unless you have access to the server, physically. How about you just open that server up and change hard drives every month or two? Toss the hard drive in the trash or the local lake? A million possibilities exist

We won't even get into using multiple email data files that can be transferred via ftp or some other protocol and opened and read anywhere. Btw, this can be automated very easily

Looks like they didn't protect against spoofing, as I listed earlier

Freedom Watch has filed a racketeering lawsuit against Bill and Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation. The charge is that Hillary used her private emails for influence peddling in exchange for donations to the Clinton Foundation.

The civil suit alleges the Clintons “systematically and continuously ... conducted a corrupt enterprise” over more than 10 years, allegedly in violation of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization (RICO) Act, which deals with abuse and misuse of organizations or businesses.

Get ready folks. The latest from Team Clinton is an all-time show stopper.

Hillary Clinton's lawyer has informed a congressional committee that no copies of any emails sent during her term as Sec State remain on her email server. After a unilateral decision as to which emails were relevant, and having sent printed copies of those emails to the State Dept., the server settings were changed to save only emails sent or received within the last 60 days.

“Thus, there are no hdr22@clintonmail.com emails from Secretary Clinton’s tenure as secretary of state on the server for any review, even if such review were appropriate or legally authorized,” Mr. Kendall said.

The House Select Committee on Benghazi had subpoenaed the server last week, asking Mrs. Clinton to hand it over to a third party so it could determine which emails were personal and which were government records.
