FBI Investigating How Top Secret, Secure-Email-Only Information Somehow Wound Up on Hillary's Totally Insecure System

Oh the Huma-nity.

Now I get the Weiner-Huma marriage. They both like putting forbidden things on to the internet.

The FBI is investigating whether members of Hillary Clinton's inner circle "cut and pasted" material from the government's classified network so that it could be sent to her private e-mail address, former State Department security officials say.

Clinton and her top aides had access to a Pentagon-run classified network that goes up to the Secret level, as well as a separate system used for Top Secret communications.

The two systems -- the Secret Internet Protocol Router Network (SIPRNet) and Joint Worldwide Intelligence Communications System (JWICS) -- are not connected to the unclassified system, known as the Non-Classified Internet Protocol Router Network (NIPRNet). You cannot e-mail from one system to the other, though you can use NIPRNet to send ­e-mails outside the government.

Somehow, highly classified information from SIPRNet, as well as even the super-secure JWICS, jumped from those closed systems to the open system and turned up in at least 1,340 of Clinton’s home e-mails -- including several the CIA earlier this month flagged as containing ultra-secret Sensitive Compartmented Information and Special Access Programs, a subset of SCI.

Read the whole article. This has to be done deliberately; there's no possible "accident" here. One has to first copy the secret document, whether by cut and paste, or manual retyping, or screenshot, then put it on to the NIPRnet (which is also illegal), then send it to Hillary's email system, which is beyond illegal.

And you know all that retyping or screenshotting to break national security laws...?

Remember, Hillary did all of this for the sake of "convenience."

Even archliberal hack commentator Clarence Page now expects the FBI to refer Hillary to the DoJ for criminal prosecution.

Andy McCarthy writes on this, and confesses an error -- initially, he figured Hillary Clinton didn't have anything to do with any secret emails being on her system; he figured she wouldn't stoop that low.

Now he realizes that in all likelihood she ordered the transfer of secret emails to the unsecured homebrew server, and that he erred in thinking there was any bottom at all to the Clintons' lawlessness.
