(TRUNEWS) The last batch of Hillary Clinton emails released Monday show she corresponded with several high-level officials at the State Department and the leaders of 15 foreign governments.
When she was Secretary of State, Clinton used a private email server out of “convenience” claiming she never sent information marked classified, but now the State Department admits classified information was emailed regarding U.S. national security, intelligence, foreign governments and financial secrets, according to the Washington Free Beacon.
The FBI is probing Clinton’s server, located in her home, which was non-secure. She also used a personal email address.
In one email, a top official at the State Department’s East Asia bureau informed two Clinton aides on meetings with diplomats from several Southeast Asian nations. The contents were rejected to conform to the Freedom of Information Act’s exemption for classified information.
Several emails contained “born classified” information, which gave details on foreign policy known as “operational intelligence”. The Washington Free Beacon reports any senior government official would instantly recognize it, regardless of how it was marked.
Other emails consisted of classified information about talks with leaders in Bahrain, Morocco, Saudi Arabia and Qatar in 2011 after the uprising in Egypt.
There are also messages sent to Clinton’s personal email that contains now-classified info about a meeting between Henry Kissinger and top officials in China.
After taking office, Clinton signed a non-disclosure agreement which states criminal penalties could be assessed for mishandling classified information.
Last week U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan called the situation troubling and said he is considering asking the State Department to subpoena Clinton and her aide Huma Abedin, according to CNN.
Clinton has insisted none of the questionable emails were classified at the time they were sent but were deemed classified at a later date.
TRUNEWS reported Monday the Obama Administration knew about Clinton’s use of a personal email long before it was discovered by the House Committee investigating the 2012 attack on Benghazi.
