Story highlights

Newly released documents contain a summary of notes related to the FBI's investigation into Hillary Clinton
Both FBI and State on Monday denied any "quid pro quo"

Washington (CNN)The FBI is denying that any "quid pro quo" was offered in a fight between the bureau and State Department over the classification level of an email on Hillary Clinton's private server after new documents were released Monday from the agency's investigation.
........................

In return for FBI unclassifying one of the Clinton server emails, the interviewee said as relayed by the IOD official, the State Department official offered to help station FBI agents overseas in sensitive areas.

That records management official concluded State had an "agenda" related to "minimizing" the classification issues with Clinton's emails.

The newly released documents contain a summary of interview notes related to the FBI's investigation into whether classified information was improperly handled while Clinton was secretary of state.

But another interview contained in the same collection said that though Kennedy reached out to FBI about declassifying the email, it was the FBI that brought up getting agents stationed in Iraq. ................

1. When will congress investigate Donald Trump working with Russian election hackers?

This data only exists because Trump has been encouraging Russian hackers to attack America.

[dalton99]

4. ^ This.

[True_Blue]

18. No kidding!

Trumps alliance with Russia is disturbing to say the least. Since he is running for President, I think Americans are entitled to know exactly what his relationship is with the Russian government.

[MattP]

2. When will they launch a investigation of Trump and the House collusion against H.R.C

And the Russians

[vadermike]

3. Ok

What about Trump? You mean to tell me they are gonna win over this bs ? Gimme a break They are so desperate

[Maeve]

5. And for those looking for analysis on this:

Bottomline--people will see what they expect to see

6. Another dead end scandal.

At least this one died after a few hours.

I'm guessing these government agencies are getting sick of RW bullshit, especially as it impunges their integrity.

[Midnight Writer]

8. Yes, just now seeing CNN and MSNBC backtracking on this story

Too bad it was put out in the first place in such a misleading representation. More fodder for the Clinton Haters.

[stopbush]

10. The media doesn't vet any bad info about the Clintons.

They go with their "must be something there" bulshit every goddamned time.

And this is coming from fucking Wikileaks, which has been exposed as a Russian disinformation operation.

[Dawson Leery]

16. Someone cut Julian's internet.

Time to cut down wikileaks all together.

[meadowlark5]

7. Why can't the State dept or FBI or someone find where these are being sent from

and block it? It's Russian espionage being funneled through wikileaks.

Isn't there a way for our people in the govt find where this is originating and begin blocking all of those coming into the country? This is just insane. Wikileaks is not some whistle blowing group who thinks they are doing a service to expose egregious activities. They're simply rabble rouser. They are serving no purposeful good except the the Trump and Brietbart crowd.

9. The real story is e-mail is too easily hacked.

We always seem a step behind hackers. There needs to be vast improvement in security across the board.

[Loki Liesmith]

12. complex passwords + two factor authentication

will fix most email.

Oh, also, don't answer phishing emails.

Voila: we have a secure system.

[Martin Eden]

11. Emails were not hacked **UNTIL**

The Russians conspired with Wikileaks on Trump's behalf

[Wilms]

13. I read a detailed report that was SHOCKING.

Names, IP addresses, all of it. Thick as thieves, that Putin Trump and Assange thing. A rat pack, if you will. Why we haven't bombed Russia and the Ecuadorian embassy in London is beyond me.

[Martin Eden]

14. Bombing would be a terrible mistake

... unless you mean cyber-bombing.

Bottom line is we have to convince Russia the price they pay for their hacking will be greater than the perceived benefits.

[Wilms]

15. I'd start by convincing them that they did it.

[videohead5]

17. Hillary Was Not

Even the head of the State Department when this happened.this happened within the last year.

[Cha]

19. Thanks rivers!
