WASHINGTON — Two inspectors general have asked the Justice Department to open a criminal investigation into whether sensitive government information was mishandled in connection with the personal email account Hillary Rodham Clinton used as secretary of state, senior government officials said Thursday.

The request follows an assessment in a June 29 memo by the inspectors general for the State Department and the intelligence agencies that Mrs. Clinton's private account contained "hundreds of potentially classified emails." The memo was written to Patrick F. Kennedy, the under secretary of state for management.

It is not clear if any of the information in the emails was marked as classified by the State Department when Mrs. Clinton sent or received them.

But since her use of a private email account for official State Department business was revealed in March, she has repeatedly said that she had no classified information on the account.

The initial revelation has been an issue in the early stages of her presidential campaign.

Do you agree with your good friend Pete that people who support Traditional marriage (marriage) are bigots and discriminate against faggots? Your question makes no sense.

Another dodge by you. You're not being honest. You just don't want to hurt your bff's feelings.

Pete thinks you're a bigot because you don't support pretend "fag marriage".

A SoS has classification rights over documents they write, but they can't reclassify a classified Pentagon or CIA document on a whim.

Then it will be the fault of some secretary or clerk that retyped it and handed it to her without telling her.

NOTHING is EVER going to be her fault.

In Pete's defense, he has only demonstrated that Sanders is just about as capable of any politician to destroy America. He is correct, too. GWBush was a lamb coming into office and destroyed America while destroying the ME, all for nothing.

So, Sanders might just be another good candidate as well.

Your comment above is a perfect example of an idiot POM-POM girl that wasn't even involved but begs to get her nose rubbed in it.

You have to give him a break. He has spent his whole adult life sucking up to various police chiefs and other authority figures,and now that he is retired he is reduced to sucking up to a web site owner in order to get his "authority fix".

If anything we should feel sorry for him. He is rudderless in a sea of confusion without a master to tell him what to think and what to do.

Once again you are lying about me,and I haven't even been back all day.

I am NOT a "fag lover". Unlike you,I am a Bill of Rights lover.

And I have never once said that Bernie Sanders is the "best candidate" and "a conservative".

What I wrote was "Sanders is more conservative than any of the alleged Republicans currently running when it comes to American jobs.

If you believe Trump is serious,you HAVE to believe that pro-wrasslin is not fixed. Trump is Randy "Macho Man" savage without the muscles.

You just added the part about American jobs. You may have thought that but you never said that. You said he was the most consrvative of anyone running.

Ted Cruz is pretty much pure conservative. So your statement is incorrect. Despite your new spin (when it comes to American jobs)

And yet another lie about me on the same thread.

Guess what,Bucko? There are plenty of people who support traditional marriages that aren't obsessed with homosexuals as you are,and that have the odd notion that homosexuals have the same rights as every other citizen.

And there is no THINK that drones like you discriminate against faggots. You do,and you think doing so makes you holier. I have no problem with that. You,like everyone else in a free country,are free to think anything you want to think. What you are NOT allowed to do is pass laws that discriminate against others that disagree with your superstitious beliefs.

After all,nobody died and made YOu God.

Yes,even nutcases have a right to live their lives according to their beliefs,as long as they aren't infringing on the rights of others.

Don't blame ME for designating your cult a cult,Bucko! It was the Catholic Church that first called all non-Catholic forms of Christianity cults,and since then all the Protestant cults have called competing Protestant relgigions cults,also.

I didn't create that,I just repeated it to highlight you hypocrisy.

But to answer your question,"YES,cults DO have as much right to practice their faith as anyone else in this country. If you needed my approval it wouldn't be a right,it would be a privilege.

You just don't have the right to force others to share your views and values against their will,and you damn sure don't have the power to demand that government does it for you.

It isn't. Marriage isn't a role for the federal government. Unless we the people decide we need the feds to fight the faggots. Then we can have an amendment or legislation.

Marriage was already defined prior to the adoption of the constitution. So they saw no need to redefine it. Or they would have done such.

It isn't a lie. You said that. So you're lying.

I apologize. I keep forgetting how truly ignorant you really are.

"Marriage" is a big word that is defined many ways,but the general sense of the word is defined as "joining two as one". Like in manufacturing,when they join plastic and steel.

Or in your world,where you unite male and female as one.

Or in the homosexual world,where they unite whatever with whatever as one.

Nobody is demanding you marry the man of your dreams,so deal with it.

I think, and sincerely hope, that McLunatic is off the list of US Senators after the next election.

Unfortunately,Trump may have helped him out by attacking his courage as a Navy pilot. Draft Dodging trust fund children have no standing to question the courage of anyone that actually wore a uniform and risked their life,and that is the kind of thing that could get veterans and their families to rally around that senile old SOB again.

I'm not a rich guy. But a couple of grand doesn't seem like that much to me. It must be like a nickel or penny to Trump.

I understand as a business man of his magnitude. You have to play the political game or you will not be able to do business. So he gave them some chump change. It doesn't bother me in the least.

Now if Jeb, or Graham, or Cruz gave her money. There would be hell to pay. Because there giving would be for different reasons.

That is how I see it. I suspect that is how millions of others see it. Am I a bit hypocritical on this? Maybe but I don't think so.

I'm telling you this so you can understand my thinking and perhaps lots of others. Trump is going to be able to get away with stuff others in the field wouldn't. And that is ok with me. Because I and others can see that he isn't a typical politican. He is there to solve serious problems with our debt, border etc.

I won't agree with everything he does. But I respect him. He isn't going to get tied up in the kinds of debates you and I have about gay marriage or abortion. He may not be as against those as I am. But that is ok because unlike a Hillary or typical politican that isn't his main focus. He will be a good President. And like Reagan I expect you to come around. You're just so cynical from your experinces with being lied to for so may years. So your cynicism is to be expected.

Hope that helps you understand where I and I think many others are coming from.

I have never ONCE said that homosexual marriage was in the Bill of Rights.

The Bill of Rights GUARANTEES ALL Americans they have the same rights as all other Americans.

Including the right to marry who they wish if that person wants to marry them. If homosexuals don't have that right,neither do heterosexuals.

Or even asexuals,who marry for companionship or to other personal reasons.

If there is one thing that Trump loves as much as himself,it is money. He is not going to give a dime to anyone unless he thinks he will benefit from it.

Good to see you don't care about him contributing to the Clinton,Kennedy,and NYC manorial campaigns,though.

You first say you "I have never ONCE said that homosexual marriage was in the Bill of Rights."

Then you say"The Bill of Rights GUARANTEES ALL Americans they have the same rights as all other Americans.

According to electoral cycle donations via OpenSecrets.org which I examined this morning, Trump has donated a net $744,033 to political candidates and committees since 1989 (the extent of the online database).

Of this, $612,083 are to candidates or parties identifiable either as Republican or Democratic.

Of that amount, $320,300 of that have been to the Democratic Party and Democratic candidates; $291,783 to Republican committees and candidates. That’s 52% of his giving to identifiable political giving to Democrats.

Perhaps more illuminating: In 2010, he made $102,200 in political donations, $83,400 were to Republicans, including a $50,000 check in October to American Crossroads, a PAC cofounded by Karl Rove.

Before 2010, when we could infer he was less serious about running for the Republican nomination, 59% of his political donations were to Democrats (again, setting aside donations not identifiable with either party).

Who are his favorites?

On the left side of the aisle:

$20,350 to Charles Rangel, the Harlem-based Congressman $9,900 to Chuck Schumer $9,400 to Harry Reid $9,000 to various Kennedys, mainly Ted. $5,500 to John Kerry

On the right side of the aisle:

$13,200 to John McCain (excluding any McCain affiliated PACs) $8,300 Arlen Specter, former Republican Senator who eventually turned Democratic to salvage his career. $9,500 to Mark Foley, the disgraced former Florida politician $8,250 to south Jersey Congressman Frank LoBiondo $6,500 to Sue Kelly, a former congressperson from upstate New York.

Of the $131,950 donations to organizations not identified as affiliated with a party by OpenSecrets and non-affiliated candidates:

$4,800 went to Charlie Crist, the former Florida governor who ran for Senate as an independent. $1,000 to independent candidate Joe Lieberman (who also received Trump donations when a Democrat) $50,000 went to the Trump NY Delegate Committee in 1999, presumably in connection with the effort to draw a political convention to New York City.

See the data yourself at OpenSecrets.org

Trump certainly appears to be drawing unusual backers. As I previously reported, a left-leaning PAC that previously backed Obama, John Kerry and Howard Dean is mulling back a candidate Trump.

GrandIsland - you have too much tyme on your hands ... why not go out and be that street crossing guard that you once were? You were best at that sort of thing.
