This is getting backlash on the news and from national security experts. Phone cameras can be hacked and people could read what documents they're lighting up. Zuckerberg has tape over his phone camera for that reason. They're leaving classified documents just laying around on the open table for anyone to see.
This is such an enormous breach of security, experts are flabbergasted.
"Trump turned their dinner table into an open-air situation room. Aides and translators surrounded the two leaders as other diners chatted and gawked around them."
DeAgazio, a club member, is snapping photos and posting them on his FB page.
How many times was Pres. Obozo given security briefings on the golf course?
You really do not understand the difference between a security briefing out of earshot of those who don't have top security clearance and handling a national security crisis in front of diners and servers?

It is hilarious to see Trump fail every single day. Thank god we have two more branches of gov to keep pulling the country back as Bannon tries to run us over a cliff..
I think it's hilarious that Trump beat Hillary Clinton when all of you said he would lose.
The difference? What makes me laugh is actual reality.
Its getting tiring dispelling and disproving the BS you continue to push. For the sake of the readers who might otherwise be misled by the nonsense you're pushing, however, I'll continue to do so.
1) BS. It has not been "well reported" that the material involved originated in the State Department. Quite the contrary: reporting has consistently shown that materials included/sent-received on the server originated in 3-5 other intelligence agencies. For instance: Exclusive: State Dept.-released Clinton email had classified intel from 3 agencies, in possible violation | Fox News Seriously, why do you continue pushing nonsense (fake news, if you will) without a shred of evidence to back it up?
2) More BS. No, State could not just reclassify another department's OCA-based classification as its own, though State would be free to use/push out the said document generally-speaking. But the source would still be the OCA agency, which would solely be responsible for declassifying such document. Now, if State came upon the same information based on its own methods, that's another story. But no one is claiming that this occurred.
3) Comey didn't give Trump the White House. As much negative press that Trump had against him, do you honestly think one of the few bad new stories against HRC cost her the White House? Give the American people some credit.
Read your own cite. It makes it clear that the State Dept does not agree with the classification of the document. Period. And the only one who could find fault with State would be the President...who did not do so.
Comey made a tiny late impact. Trump won by a tiny late impact. We will never know for sure but it should never have happened and Obama should have fired him for the late letter.

Obama didn't fire him and, as fortune would have it, Comey was practically the only one Trump didn't bid farewell to when he took over.

1) That was for one set of specific emails.
2) Whether or not the State Department agrees that the information was classified is irrelevant as State was not the original classification authority for the documents/information in question. Sure, State can protest to DNI all they want, but, until and unless DNI rules that information was never classified, then it remains at the classification level issued by the OCA. And, note, long after State said they would go to DNI, Comey came out and stated that there was classified information passed through HRC's email server: https://www.fbi.gov/news/pressrel/pr...-e-mail-system As you can see, many emails were classified at the time they were sent across the server. This includes emails classified as Top Secret. Ultimately, though, even if the classified emails all originated at State (they didn't, of course), that would not take away from the fact that HRC wouldn't simply be able to declassify them just by passing them across an unsecured channel. No, there is a process by which an OCA must go through before a document can be declassified. She didn't do that.
3) No, the President is not the only one who could find fault with what State/HRC did. That authority is lawfully delegated to Attorney General/DOJ/FBI, which allowed (with president's blessing, I assume) the investigation to go forward. That they chose not to indict is beside the point.
