Hillary Clinton’s Emails Did Not Contain Highly Classified Secrets, Inquiry Finds.
Ben Carson has been sucking up the news for the past few days, so I didn’t see this until today, nor did I hear about it anywhere on the news.
Funny how accusations make news for days, but when doubt of veracity of those claims surfaces…radio silence.
The U.S. intelligence community has retreated from claims that two emails in Hillary Clinton’s private account contained top-secret information, a source familiar with the situation told POLITICO.
After a review, intelligence agencies concluded that the two emails did not include highly classified intelligence secrets, the source said. Concerns about the emails’ classification helped trigger an ongoing FBI inquiry into Clinton’s private email setup.
Intelligence Community Inspector General I. Charles McCullough III made the claim that two of the emails contained top-secret information; the State Department publicly stated its disagreement and asked Director of National Intelligence James Clapper’s office to referee the dispute. Now, that disagreement has been resolved in State’s favor, said the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
