James Comeyformer FBI Director

This was a travesty of justice, there’s no other way to look at it,

Bongino said regarding the recommendation by former FBI Director James Comey not to charge Hillary Clinton in 2016.

Here’s the next shoe to drop -> was Andy McCabe using secure comms to send/receive classified information? Someone should check on that.”

In a February 2018 tweet Bongino wrote

Either Huma knew she was sending classified emails to Weiner, & was doing so illegally, therefore she committed a crime. Or, Huma didn’t know sending classified emails was a crime & had absolutely no business having access to the Clinton political machine & insiders in our govt,

he said in a deleted tweet from late 2017.

This has everything to do with the security of our country,

A leak of classified information — that’s a federal offense punishable by, I think, over a decade in prison, off the top of my head,

Patel said in 2021 when discussing leaks to the media during the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election

When he took them he couldn’t have done anything but broken the law, period,

Martin said on his radio show in 2023, referring to Biden’s possession of classified documents

They let the guy off the hook,

he said of Biden, who was investigated over classified documents found at his private residence in Delaware

What we should be talking about is it was a very successful mission,

she told reporters

Waltz didn’t and wouldn’t send classified information on an open account,

Hughes told The Washington Post

Let me reiterate, NSA Waltz received emails and calendar invites from legacy contacts on his personal email and cc’d government accounts for anything since January 20th to ensure compliance with records retention, and he has never sent classified material over his personal email account or any unsecured platform,

Hughes said

While the NSC official used his Gmail account, his interagency colleagues used government-issued accounts, headers from the email correspondence show,

the Post reported

I don't think he should apologize,

the president said

Any correspondence containing classified material must only be sent through secure channels and all NSC staff are informed of this,

the official said

And, probably, he won't be using it again, at least not in the very near future,
