State Department finds violations by 38 people in Clinton emails review
2019-10-19
h/t Instapundit
The State Department identified nearly 600 security violations in its now-completed review of email records of dozens of former agency officials and aides to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

The investigation, which covered the 33,000 emails Clinton provided for review, found 91 "valid violations" attributable to 38 individuals, some of whom may face disciplinary action. Another 497 violations could not be tied to any specific person.
James Comey's "No intent". Pfft. Defenestrate these f*ckers
A nine-page unclassified report was sent to Iowa Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley, who is leading the congressional oversight of the security review, in a letter from Assistant Secretary of State for Legislative Affairs Mary Elizabeth Taylor dated Oct. 16.

There have been people convicted and put in prison for less. The fact that she had an illegal server set up, and she tried to destroy evidence of a crime ought to be sufficient to show intent.

#1  Note Senator Grassley's January 30 letter was answered October 16th. I think it was the same year, but Mary Elizabeth didn't say.
