Hillary Clinton makes a subtle change to her email defense
Ever since Hillary Clinton’s email scandal first came to light the former Secretary of State has defended herself by saying she never sent or received information which was classified at the time of transmission. (Ignoring the fact that some information is born classified even if it is not marked as such.)
However the FBI investigation revealed this was an untruth because when the FBI released its transcripts of the investigation over the long holiday weekend we learned that several paragraphs in several emails were marked with a “C” for classified. Hillary Clinton laughingly told the FBI she thought this was just a paragraph marking even though no other paragraphs were marked with an “A” or a “B” or a “D.” That was really a silly excuse, however if we take her at her word it still shows she was in way over her head as Secretary of State.
During last night’s forum Hillary Clinton made a subtle change to her claim she never sent or received email that was marked classified, did anyone notice this? Here is what she said:
Classified material has a header that says “top secret,” “secret,” “confidential.” None of the emails sent or received by me had such a header.
Hillary Clinton is now claiming she never sent or received emails which were marked classified in the header. This is a subtle change in wording however it is a significant change in meaning. I have not seen the mainstream media call her out on this and this will allow her to change her defense moving forward as if she is continuing the same defense.
However there is still one small problem with this defense: emails which were released back in January showed Hillary Clinton instructing an aide on how to send classified information through insecure means by telling him to remove the classifications in the headers. Here is what one prosecutor had to say about this:
“This is gigantic,” said diGenova. “She caused to be removed a classified marking and then had it transmitted in an unencrypted manner. That is a felony. The removal of the classified marking is a federal crime. It is the same thing to order someone to do it as if she had done it herself.”
So now Hillary Clinton is using this as a defense when she purposely told others to remove the classified makings from the headers, an apparent felony, in the first place.

She must think we are all completely stupid, or will simply buy what she is selling. But the truth is that it seems not to matter what We The People think because the powers that be will defend her until her last breath while the likes of you or I would be rotting in prison right now for lesser offenses! Amazing…

It certainly does not help that she has the MSM in her back pocket, any other candidate would be done by now but the MSM is trying to run out the clock and put her over the finish line.

She is playing to her base and media who don’t care. Hillary and her aides used I don’t remember 327 times when asked questions about the emails and or the server.

This is from Judge Napolitano
“At one point during the interrogation, FBI agents attempted to trick her, as the law permits them to do. Before the interrogation began, agents took the hard copy of an innocuous email Clinton had sent to an aide and marked it “secret.” Then, at her interrogation, they asked Clinton whether she recognized the email and its contents. She said she did not recognize it, but she questioned the “secret” denomination and pointed out to the agents that nothing remotely secret was in the email.
By examining the contents of the email to see whether it contained state secrets, which it clearly did not, Clinton demonstrated an awareness of the law — namely, that it is the contents of a document or email that cause it to be protected by federal secrecy statutes, not the denomination put on it by the sender.
This added to the case against her because she later told the FBI that she had never paid attention to whether a document contained state secrets or not. In the strange world of espionage prosecution, this denial of intent is an admission of guilt, as it is profoundly the job of the secretary of state to recognize state secrets and to keep them in their secure government-protected venues, and the grossly negligent failure to do so is criminal.”
Of course this will not be laid side by side with her current ruse.

Interesting, so she did understand the classifications after all…

None of this matters to the media they just don’t care they want Hillary in the White House. However what they want is not necessarily what they will get as we have caught on to the Hillary scam.
