Clinton Email Controversy Analysis

Nothing, and I will underscore nothing, that I was

sent, um, or that I sent was marked classified.

Secretary Clinton said, "I did not email any classified material

to anyone on my

email. There is no classified material." Was

that true?

There was classified material emailed.

I never sent nor received any information that was classified at the time it was

sent and received.

Secretary Clinton said there was nothing marked classified on her

emails either

sent or received. Was that true?

That's not true. 110 emails in

52 email chains have been determined by the owning

agency to contain classified information at the

time they were sent or received.

When I got to work as Secretary of State, I opted for

convenience to use my personal email account because I thought

it would be easier to carry just one device for my work

and for my personal emails instead of two.

Secretary Clinton said she used just one device. Was that true?

She used multiple devices during the four years, uh, of her

term as Secretary of State.

I didn't have to turn over anything.

I chose to turn over 55,000 pages of my

email. But we turned over everything that was work-related,

every single thing.

Secretary Clinton said all work-related emails were returned to the State

Department. Was that true?

No. We found work-related emails, thousands, that were not returned.

What, like with a cloth or something? Uh, uh, no.

You get a subpoena, and after getting the subpoena, you delete

33,000 emails, and then you acid wash them.

Everything he just said is absolutely false.

Secretary Clinton said neither she nor anyone else deleted work-related

emails from her personal account. Was that true?

The email software was removed.

That didn't remove the email content.

The effect was that millions of email fragments ended up in the

server's unused or slack space. This helped us recover

work-related emails that were not among the 30,000 that

were produced to State.

We went through a thorough process to identify all of

my work-related emails and deliver them to the State

Department.

Secretary Clinton said her lawyers read every one of the emails and

were overly inclusive. Did her lawyers read the email

content individually?

No. Although there is evidence of potential violations

of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information,

our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case.

Did

Donald Trump obstruct justice as you read the

incidences as Mueller lays them out?

Well, I think there's enough there that any other person who

had, um, engaged in those

acts, um, would certainly, uh, have been

indicted.
