“The number of emails containing classified information that went through Hillary Clinton’s private server has grown to 60, according to the State Department. And that number is likely to grow as the investigation plows through the 30,000 emails Clinton didn’t delete.
Washington Times:
While media coverage has focused on a half-dozen of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s personal emails containing sensitive intelligence, the total number of her private emails identified by an ongoing State Department review as having contained classified data has ballooned to 60, officials told The Washington Times.
That figure is current through the end of July and is likely to grow as officials wade through a total of 30,000 work-related emails that passed through her personal email server, officials said. The process is expected to take months.
The 60 emails are among those that have been reviewed and cleared for release under the Freedom of Information Act as part of a open-records lawsuit. Some of the emails have multiple redactions for classified information.
Among the first 60 flagged emails, nearly all contained classified secrets at the lowest level of “confidential” and one contained information at the intermediate level of “secret,” officials told the Times.
Those 60 emails do not include two emails identified in recent days by Intelligence Community Inspector General I. Charles McCullough III as containing “top-secret” information possibly derived from Pentagon satellites, drones or intercepts, which is some of the nation’s most sensitive secrets.”
“Hero Marine Nailed for Secret Email: What Did He Do That Hillary Didn’t?
Clinton could still become president after her email scandal, but a decorated Marine is being forced out over one classified report he sent to avert a disaster.
No matter how much classified material is found in her personal email server, Hillary Clinton will no doubt continue campaigning to become our next president.
Meanwhile, a decorated Marine officer who has deployed four times faces being discharged from the corps he loves because he used his personal email to send a single classified report as an urgent warning when lives were at stake.
The stateside message from Marine Reserves Major Jason Brezler to Forward Operating Base Delhi in Now Zad, Helmand Province, Afghanistan, went unheeded. Three young Marines were shot to death as they worked out in a gym by an Afghan teen brought on the base by the same corrupt and double-dealing pedophile police chief whom Brezler had declared to be an immediate threat.
Yet the only person to be investigated in connection with the killings is Brezler, the Marine who sought to prevent them.”
“Jan had been a district police chief of the very worst sort. Brezler and Terrell had determined that Jan was involved in narcotics and arms trafficking, as well as facilitating attacks by the Taliban, even selling Afghan police uniforms to the enemy.
Jan also was alleged to be what Brezler’s lawyer would later call “a systematic child rapist” who allegedly ran a child kidnapping ring and acquired “chai boys” with the help of U.S. taxpayer job development money.
As the protégé of an accused drug lord with connections to then-Afghan President Hamid Karzai, Jan might have imagined himself untouchable. But Brezler and Terrell kept pushing and were finally able to pressure the provincial governor into removing Jan from his post, a rare and notable bright spot in the bloodiest province in the bloodiest year of the war.”
“NFL football player James Harrison said in a message posted to Instagram he returned two “participation” trophies awarded to his two sons. Harrison said the trophies would be returned until they earned “a real trophy.”
“I’m not about to raise two boys to be men by making them believe they are entitled to something just because they tried their best,” wrote Harrison, who plays linebacker for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
HBO’s Real Sports recently highlighted the debate that centers on the presentation of participation trophies. Some believe the trophies provide an important self-esteem boost. Others say the trophies provide an unearned sense of entitlement.
The report also noted the big business of trophy making, as one trophy manufacturer reports $50 million in annual sales.”
My son has tons of “participation” trophies” and one championship ring a team mom bought his basketball team when they won two tournaments and got first place for the regular season. Funny, he worked harder and showed more character when he was one of only two or three decent players on a bad baseball team then he did for that basketball team. It was his first year and all he did was occasion play for two minutes at a time to give the good players a little rest. It’s complicated. Personally I think the trophies are okay for the little tee ball players.
kBells, I don’t like to see unearned trophies and ribbons, and I’d say that father was right to return them. I remember in junior high what a big deal it was to get a red ribbon (second place) for a school-district writing contest, and then later to get first place for another thing I wrote–it was a big deal. I’ve never gotten a trophy in my life, but if I’d had trophies for not doing much of anything, ribbons would have meant really little.
Year before last at the county fair, one event was a parent-and-child event. One girl of about 12 had a horse she had obviously trained well, and she directed the cart with her father sitting beside her on the seat. The only other entrant was a boy of three or four who “drove” a pony cart. Or, rather, he sat on his father’s lap, his father held the reins, and the boy also pulled as his father did. But it was clearly the man doing the work and the son learning–a very good thing, but a first step in learning. At the end, they told us over the loudspeaker that they were having a really hard time making a decision. They ended up awarding it as a tie, two first places. My husband and I were quite disgusted–it wasn’t fair to either contestant. The girl had worked so hard for what she did, and the boy had nothing left to look forward to, since he was shown that trophies can be won just by showing up. It made the girl’s work meaningless. Yes, he was cute–but that wasn’t enough to win a competition.
