150 Clinton Emails to Be Released Contain Now-Classified Info
by Andrea Mitchell

Approximately 150 emails in a release of Hillary Clinton's correspondence Monday night will have information redacted because it has now been deemed to require classification, the State Department said Monday.

The information was not identified as classified when Clinton sent or received the emails.

The release of about 7,000 pages of email is scheduled for 9pm ET. State Department Deputy Spokesman Mark Toner said that the release will meet a federal court requirement that 25 percent of Clinton's emails from her private server be released by the end of August.

A State Department official also confirms that the approximately 150 emails that are being upgraded and classified retroactively are all at the "confidential" level - the lowest level of classification.

None are "Top Secret" as were two of the emails released last month.

In order for the emails to be released, the team from the Intelligence Agencies - FBI - and State must agree on what should be redacted for reasons of privacy or national security and whether the emails should be classified.

In general, the Inspector General from the intelligence agencies has been demanding more classification than the State Department. Earlier this month, the State Department appealed the Inspector General's decisions to Director of National Intelligence General James Clapper.

The FBI has a team studying the emails to determine whether they were handled securely as is required by law. At this stage, it is not a criminal investigation.
