HILLARY’S EMAIL LINE CRUMBLES It was okay and everyone else was doing it, Hillary Clinton’s often repeated defense of her private email set-up, has a problem. And a State Department audit seems to agree. In true Clintonian fashion her campaign is sticking with that defense in rebutting a State Department watchdog group’s audit released Wednesday that said the former secretary “did not comply with the Department’s policies” in using a private server. The audit also said that had the Department known about the server they would not have given its blessing because of “security risks in doing so.” Whether or not security was compromised remains to be seen. Clinton’s FAQ’s page claims there wasn’t a breach, but the hacker known as “Guccifer,” who was indicted on Wednesday for other identity theft charges, claims he did access Clinton’s private server, though he has refused to provide evidence of such a hack. The State Department audit did not find specific evidence of a breach, but notes that the Clintons’ outside I.T. consultant twice shut down her home-based server because he feared that someone was trying to hack the system. While a separate FBI investigation continues to loom over Clinton, the fallout from the report is likely to send Clinton’s already poor numbers on honesty and trustworthiness down even further as she fights a two-front war with Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Bernie Sanders.
