1.4(B)

Crimes against the people:

The Clinton-Mitchell correspondence is one of 57 email threads found by Reuters in the latest batch of emails released on Monday that the State Department has marked as including the same type of information.

In all the 87 email threads examined by Reuters, the State Department has blanked out the confidential information in the public copies, adding the classification code "1.4(B)", denoting foreign government information.

This is the only kind of information that presidential executive orders say is "presumed" to likely harm national security if wrongly disclosed. State Department regulations describe it as the "most important category of national security information" its officials encounter.

In other words the Chinese, the Russians and pretty well every other government on the planet with an intelligence service more competent than Barney Fife have copies of Clinton's interactions with foreign powers while she was SecState. The quickest way to lose a conflict, whether military or political, is letting the opposition read your mail. A third-rate hack of a British general was able to run Rommel out of Africa for no more reason than Montgomery was copied on everything Rommel said and wrote, right down to his letters to his wife.

In the game of international brinksmanship, nothing is more important than timely foreign intelligence. Clinton was giving it away to our enemies and potential enemies for a song. Ultimately, her disdain for the law may have done more damage than every foreign spy planted in Washington for the last 100 years.

Jail? Perish the thought. I want to see her put up against a wall and shot as a traitor to her country.
