Nothing to see here, except more possible Clinton-related corruption from Hillary’s time as secretary of state:
WHOA- Clinton State aide Patrick Kennedy offered FBI "quid pro quo" to change email classification. See page 26 https://t.co/9kv195VYhn

A released FBI document outlines how Undersecretary of State Patrick Kennedy asked the FBI to reclassify a Hillary Clinton email in return for a “quid pro quo”:

The only remaining question is how little time will the network newscasts devote to this story?
The Weekly Standard’s Stephen Hayes has more:
NatSec lawyer tells me information in new FBI interview summaries "most explosive" revelations of email story thus far.

Impt note: The allegation of a proposed "quid pro quo" between State Dept/FBI on reclassifying HRC emails came from a senior FBI official.

Kennedy, Sr State Dep official who sought FBI reclassification of HRC emails, also recommended State hire HRC aide who set up private server

Key question: State Dept official asked FBI to reclassify HRC emails. Did he ask the same of CIA, DIA, NSA, NGA, etc? Did they comply?

Ryan Stmt: "Sr State Dept official’s attempt to pressure the FBI to hide the extent of this mishandling bears all the signs of a cover-up."
— Stephen Hayes (@stephenfhayes) October 17, 2016
From FBI file, after being denied: "Kennedy continued to pressure the FBI to change the classified markings on the email to unclassified."
— Stephen Hayes (@stephenfhayes) October 17, 2016
Well, Hillary Clinton claimed there was never any material marked classified in her email so maybe it was a desperate attempt to retroactively make reality conform to her statement.
