    Clinton failed to hand over key email to state department

    WASHINGTON (AP) -- Former Secretary Hillary Clinton failed to turn over a copy of a key message involving problems caused by her use of a private homebrew email server, the State Department confirmed Thursday. The disclosure makes it unclear what other work-related emails may have been deleted by the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.

    The email was included within messages exchanged Nov. 13, 2010, between Clinton and one of her closest aides, Deputy Chief of Staff Huma Abedin. At the time, emails sent from Clinton's BlackBerry device and routed through her private clintonemail.com server in the basement of her New York home were being blocked by the State Department's spam filter. A suggested remedy was for Clinton to obtain a state.gov email account.

    "Let's get separate address or device but I don't want any risk of the personal being accessible," Clinton responded to Abedin.

    Clinton never used a government account that was set up for her, instead continuing to rely on her private server until leaving office.

    The email was not among the tens of thousands of emails Clinton turned over to the agency in response to public records lawsuits seeking copies of her official correspondence. Abedin, who also used a private account on Clinton's server, provided a copy from her own inbox after the State Department asked her to return any work-related emails. That copy of the email was publicly cited last month in a blistering audit by the State Department's inspector general that concluded Clinton and her team ignored clear internal guidance that her email setup violated federal standards and could have left sensitive material vulnerable to hackers.

    "While this exchange was not part of the approximately 55,000 pages provided to the State Department by former Secretary Clinton, the exchange was included within the set of documents Ms. Abedin provided the department in response to our March 2015 request," State Department spokesman John Kirby told The Associated Press on Thursday.

    Clinton...emails...*yawn*

    This story is dead and it's been dead for a long time. It's not going anywhere. Use your time to grill her for her other myriad of short comings, IMO.

    For the life of me I cannot imagine why she thought this was a brilliant idea.

    Imagine what we would be discussing if not for her decision to ignore policy and avoid her govt issue email and use her own?

    We would have spent her entire term picking apart every single email. Obviously.

    What she did was not lawful, but it was smart.

    Well that depends on whats on those deleted emails I guess.

    I honestly don't think we'd even be concerned with her emails if not for this. I mean, classified is classified. Maybe Benghazi stuff would come out later, but not until her second term I bet.

    I'm just curious about how you two decide whose turn it is to add yet another "Clinton E-mail" thread to the already exhaustive list.

    What's really amazing is that there are actually people that think her handling of this was remotely ethical or acceptable. Sure, the new revelations don't reveal much, but that's mostly because the initial revelation exposed something that was really despicable. Fortunately for Clinton, she's an excellent planner and calculated correctly that no one much gives a shit about procedural wrongdoings if the person doing it is sufficiently powerful and important to their Party.

    It reveals that at every turn she lied, she didn't hand over every email, her team sorted through all of them and anything remotely acknowledging that she knew what she was doing was wrong was not turned over.

    Actually they turned off all the security features because their IT guy who took the 5th over 125 times didn't know what else to do when a problem occurred.

    Yes. Just like it's the opinion of a lot of people that this is just Benghazi 2.0.
