Ap Fact Check: Some Clinton Email Misstatements

By LISA LERER and CATHERINE LUCEY, Associated Press, San Francisco Chronicle: Politics

According to the findings, she claimed approval she didn't have and declined to be interviewed for the report despite saying: "I'm more than ready to talk to anybody anytime." On Jan. 9, 2011, (asterisk)an adviser to former President Bill Clinton notified the State Department's deputy chief of staff for operations that he had to shut down the server because he suspected "someone was trying to hack us and while they did not get in i did.,nt (sic) want to let them have the chance to." [...] it's unclear what protection her email system might have achieved from having the Secret Service guard the property. Digital security breaches tend to come from computer networks, not over a fence. "No evidence" that Clinton asked for or received approval to conduct official government business on a personal email account run through a private server in her New York home. According to top State Department officials interviewed for the investigation, the departments that oversee security "did not — and would not — approve" her use of a personal account because of security concerns. According to the findings, it's unclear how widespread knowledge was about Clinton's use of a personal account. Though Clinton's use of a private email was discussed with some in her agency, senior department officials who worked for her, including the undersecretary responsible for security, said they were not asked to approve or review the use of her private server. The officials also said they were "unaware of the scope or extent" of her email practices, even though Clinton exchanged hundreds of thousands of messages with people in government from her personal account. CLINTON: In the fall, I think it was October of last year (2014), the State Department sent a letter to previous secretaries of state asking for help with their record-keeping, in part because of the technical problems that they knew they had to deal with. While it's true that the State Department requested records from former secretaries of state in November 2014, the report says the department raised concerns about Clinton's compliance with federal record-keeping laws years earlier, and the attention did not appear welcome.

    Former President Donald Trump lashed out at his former attorney general for endorsing him in the November presidential election. And I'm not sure what Bill Barr expected, but this is the status quo with the twice-impeached, four-times indicted, petty, petulant, wannabe potentate. Bill Barr, who was one of Trump's most prominent critics, said that despite his differences with his former boss, he will support "the Republican ticket" in November.

But when Killer Kyle went to Kent State - the most offensive of his stops thus far - the campus cooperated by shutting down the voices of the students that actually go there in favor of the emotionally stunted social outcast.
