And dont forget, no, we did not forget about the Hillary Clinton bombshell. No federal charges, but the email scandal will continue to plague her campaign. We have every angle covered for you. Varney company about to begin. Nothing that i sent or received was marked classified and nothing has been demonstrated to contradict that. Seven email chains concerned matters that were classified as Top Secret Special Access Program at the time they were sent and received. I thought it would be easier to carry just one device for my work and for my personal emails instead of two. Secretary clinton used several different servers and administrators of those servers during her four years at the state department and she also used numerous mobile devices to send and to read email on that personal domain.
