Hillary Clinton had her maid print out classified material

  Since I first saved this story this morning to write about tonight the news has come across the wire that James Comey is dropping the FBI’s second investigation into Hillary Clinton’s email scandal, but this story is so outrageous that I still feel the need to write about it.

  According to the story Hillary Clinton routinely had her maid print out sensitive information for her, here is more:

As secretary of state, Hillary Clinton routinely asked her maid to print out sensitive government e-mails and documents — including ones containing classified information — from her house in Washington, DC, e-mails and FBI memos show. But the housekeeper lacked the security clearance to handle such material.

In fact, Marina Santos was called on so frequently to receive e-mails that she may hold the secrets to E-mailgate — if only the FBI and Congress would subpoena her and the equipment she used.

Clinton entrusted far more than the care of her DC residence, known as Whitehaven, to Santos. She expected the Filipino immigrant to handle state secrets, further opening the Democratic presidential nominee to criticism that she played fast and loose with national security.

Clinton would first receive highly sensitive e-mails from top aides at the State Department and then request that they, in turn, forward the messages and any attached documents to Santos to print out for her at the home.

  But this goes beyond Hillary Clinton because aides in the State Department were forwarding the emails to Santos, who obviously did not have the proper security clearance, and nobody apparently thought to ask if this was a good idea. Thankfully for Hillary Clinton somebody got to James Comey with an offer he could not refuse…
