The issue for Nixon had nothing to do with this. The law very clearly sets out pnwmom Jan 2016 #9
Are you saying Hillary declassified the information? Fumesucker Jan 2016 #11
I'm saying it wasn't classified in the first place and that the whole issue now pnwmom Jan 2016 #13
Because they contain sensitive information. cheapdate Jan 2016 #18
Yes, I'm sure republicans and independents will agree. Not cali Jan 2016 #14

Agency heads do NOT have authority to declassify documents classified by other agencies leveymg Jan 2016 #17
This is one of the lamest threads today, and there have been a bunch. It's dumbfounding. nt TheBlackAdder Jan 2016 #44
I don't believe it all orginated at state. Plus some types have to be classified. Skwmom Jan 2016 #19
There has never been any report of a document from somewhere else pnwmom Jan 2016 #20
Do you have evidence of your assertion? n/t Skwmom Jan 2016 #22
It isn't possible for me to know about all of her 55,000 unreleased emails. pnwmom Jan 2016 #26
The finding that documents on the server are TS/SAP shows these were DOD docs. leveymg Jan 2016 #23
+1, as someone with an SCI. VulgarPoet Jan 2016 #25
That would only be the case for DOD documents that are classified. There is no report pnwmom Jan 2016 #30
Why the bloody hell would something that ISN'T DoD VulgarPoet Jan 2016 #31
The DOD doesn't mark every one of its documents classified. pnwmom Jan 2016 #32
Clever use of my own question, but unfortunately, that doesn't answer mine. VulgarPoet Jan 2016 #37
You are wrong. The SAP is a designation also used in the State Department. pnwmom Jan 2016 #39
Not every DOD document is classified. How do you know any of these were? pnwmom Jan 2016 #28
NBC News:"Clinton's emails contained information classified Top Secret/Special Access Program" leveymg Jan 2016 #33
So what? The Dept of State uses these designations and Hillary as the agency head pnwmom Jan 2016 #40
The documents originated with another agency, NBC reported leveymg Jan 2016 #50
SAP is also a DOS designation. The designation doesn't tell us where it originated. pnwmom Jan 2016 #43
NBC reported the classified docs on her server were from an "intelligence agency" not DOS leveymg Jan 2016 #51
Not true - and that is why so many were sending lots of emails to the other karynnj Jan 2016 #38
Read the legal language again. She had the ultimate authority, pnwmom Jan 2016 #21
She only had classification authority over DOS originated information. Not TS/SAP or TS/SCI leveymg Jan 2016 #27
That was the presumption but she could overrule that presumption. pnwmom Jan 2016 #29
The TS/SAP classified docs were DOD materials. She's cooked. leveymg Jan 2016 #34
How do you know they were DOD materials? State documents can have those pnwmom Jan 2016 #42
It was stated in the NBC article that the TS/SAP docs were "intelligence agency" leveymg Jan 2016 #49
DOS documents can be designated SAP -- it isn't exclusively a term used by the DOD. pnwmom Jan 2016 #41
In this instance, NBC identified the source of the TS/SAP documents as an "intelligence agency" leveymg Jan 2016 #45
Yep this OP is woefully confused. askew Jan 2016 #47
How could she be sure that unseen incoming mail was not classified? 2pooped2pop Jan 2016 #35
Classified info gets sent from a classified server to another classified server. pnwmom Jan 2016 #36
Any TS docs should not have been on her nonsecure server. leveymg Jan 2016 #46
Any TS docs should not have been on her nonsecure server. leveymg Jan 2016 #48
Surely you are not suggesting that every piece of classified info thereismore Jan 2016 #52
No. I am stating that the President and the agency heads have the authority pnwmom Jan 2016 #54
Good thread on this Jarqui Jan 2016 #53
No, there is no evidence that 1300 times classified material got into her emails. pnwmom Jan 2016 #56
I think there's evidence of 1,300 because I've seen it so many times Jarqui Jan 2016 #58
And none of them were classified at the time according to your own link: pnwmom Jan 2016 #59
I think that's a common folly in this Jarqui Jan 2016 #60

Read the inspector generals reports Jarqui Jan 2016 #64
You mean the Republican operative who used to be an inspector General? pnwmom Jan 2016 #65
Are the email communications between the president and the secretary of state classified? Jarqui Jan 2016 #66
According to the spokesman, NONE of them were classified at the time they were sent. pnwmom Jan 2016 #67
Plainly Wrong Jarqui Jan 2016 #68
Sheer nonsense. pnwmom Jan 2016 #69

Sorry, but I think the State Department spokesman, coupled with the actual pnwmom Jan 2016 #57
I'm not sure why you think that has any real meaning in relation to this story loyalsister Jan 2016 #62
The bottom line is that you have no evidence for your claim. And neither do any of pnwmom Jan 2016 #63
