Her response? She spins nonsense, of course. Additionally, for her to make a rare Sunday morning talk show appearance tells you they know this is a problem. Which we should never assume considering they live in a bubble on the planet Jupiter. As far as Dickerson goes, he was fine, but was chosen because there was a presumption, I’m sure, that he’d be somewhat gentle. I’m sure she would have preferred Stephanopolous but that relationship has already come under criticism considering his obvious past as a member of the Clinton team and donor to the Clinton Foundation.

“Aren’t you ordering [Jake Sullivan] to violate the laws on handling classified material there?” John Dickerson confronted the Friday e-mail release from Hillary Clinton’s secret e-mail server head-on in an interview with the former Secretary of State yesterday on Face the Nation. Hillary responded by attempting to spin, leaving Dickerson unconvinced at best. “As the State Department said just this week,” Hillary replied, “that didn’t happen.” Actually, what the State Department said was that they had no records to show what happened, but … forget it, she’s rolling. Dickerson presses onward:

Hillary tries arguing that “headings are not classification notices,” but classification is noted in headings — and that’s why they would need to be removed in order to move from a secure transmission to nonsecure transmission.

Clearly in this context, “identifying headings” relate to classification levels. If the information was unclassified, this e-mail would have been entirely unnecessary. As I noted earlier, someone as “meticulous” and “careful” as Sullivan would have already known that he didn’t need to have unclassified material transmitted securely in the first place. On top of that, Hillary wanted this information urgently. If it was unclassified, why would it be so urgent, and why couldn’t Hillary or her immediate team simply dig it up for her?
