Bill Clinton’s Personal Aide — With No Security Clearance — Operated Hillary’s Email Server

The report released yesterday by the State Department Inspector General refers to an "incident" where the Hillary email server was shut down by "somebody" because hack attempts were detected.

This story somehow "knows" who that "somebody" was.

Apparently it was somebody named Justin Cooper who was an aid to Bill Clinton !!!!

We also know the Hillary system and the Clinton Foundation were the same machine.

And I think Cooper had something to do with the initial registration of the server.

And the killer here is: Justin Cooper had no security clearance !!!!!

If true, could be big damage.

The report does say the server shutdown was done by a “non-Department” aide.


Bill Clinton’s Personal Aide — With No Security Clearance — Operated Hillary’s Email Server

Buried in a footnote and text of the scathing report by the State Department’s Inspector General (IG) about Hillary’s emails is evidence that the private email server that carried America’s top secret information to and from the Secretary of State was installed, maintained, and partially operated by a civilian aide to Bill Clinton who lacked any security clearance and did not even work for the government.

This extensive reliance on a close assistant to Bill Clinton raises questions about the handling of classified material by the Secretary of State. If General David Petraeus was held accountable to passing secret information to his biographer and mistress, what are we to make of the routine access to potentially all secret information granted to Hillary’s husband’s aide?

While not named in the report itself, the “non-Department” aide referred to is apparently Justin Cooper, longtime aide-de-camp to the former president. Cooper had no security clearance and no expertise whatsoever in safeguarding computers.

No !!!

Seems like anything goes when the Clinton Mafia runs the show.

And yet the ABC's are snooping on regular Americans because they are all such dire national security risks,apparently

This ties the Clinton Foundation to the State Dept. rather nicely.
This poor dumb bastard is in deeeeep doo doo.

The IG Report states that on Jan. 9, 2011, the Bill Clinton aide who registered the clintonemail.com domain — who was Justin Cooper — “notified the Secretary’s Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations [Huma Abedin] that he had to shut down the server because he believed ‘someone was trying to hack us and while they did not get in I didn’t [sic] want to let them have the chance to.'”

Think he was telling the truth?



Like this guy was an expert and could actually "see" a hack attempt ?

The clinton`s luck has run out it seems, their web of lies and corruption is unravelling.

And to think all CLinton really had to do was run Kaperskys Total Security!

Hillary's PAC had complete control of her private server for 4 months, while she was Secretary of State.

EDIT: Could THIS be the "election stuff" Guccifer stated he saw on Hillary's server when he (allegedly) hacked it?

Although Hillary publicly claimed that the server was originally installed for President Clinton's use and had many safeguards; that was not the case.

The server was actually purchased by her political action committee during the 2008 campaign and installed in her house. The PAC continued to control it. Bryan Pagliano, formerly the IT specialist for Hillary's campaign, was given responsibility for maintaining the PAC's server.

Hillary's leadership PAC paid Pagliano for his work during the first four months that Hillary was Secretary of State. He obviously had no security clearance at that time, either.

After April 2009, Pagliano was hired by the State Department and was responsible for the server. So, for several months, all of the Secretary of State's official emails were processed through a server in her house that was paid for and maintained by her political organization.

A lot fell through the media cracks a year ago.

The Clinton Leadership PAC.
Imagine who could have had unfettered access to SD classified material for months.

And I wonder if this guy Cooper was a go-between for espionage?

Very easily could have disconnected the firewall at specific times to "allow" access and even could have copied TS info onto discs.

What a yard sale that must have been.

Apparently, access to the server could be granted to ANYONE the Clinton's wished to have access.
I wonder if Sid Blumenthal had special access.

Clinton’s server, which handled her personal and State Department correspondence, appeared to allow users to connect openly over the Internet to control it remotely, according to detailed records compiled in 2012. Experts said the Microsoft remote desktop service wasn’t intended for such use without additional protective measures, and was the subject of U.S. government and industry warnings at the time over attacks from even low-skilled intruders.

Just in case any hackers missed the “Open House” sign on the unlocked front door, the Clintons left two back doors unlocked, too: Records show that Clinton additionally operated two more devices on her home network in Chappaqua, New York, that also were directly accessible from the Internet.

One contained similar remote-control software that also has suffered from security vulnerabilities, known as Virtual Network Computing, and the other appeared to be configured to run websites.

as bad as all this publicly released info looks just imagine what the FBI has on her that isn`t being released.

If I had treated classified information like she has... I would be in prison.

This bears repeating:

I've posted about the server running windows remote access listing for connections before but I obviously had not slunk down all the corridors, it would seem.

That ties Clinton Foundation and State Department together quite nicely (did you know that the archaic meaning of the word nice is 'precise & accurate?') and practically gift wraps the whole shebang.

(what if this whole thing is let go because, too big to prosecute?)

This perks up my ears:

I don't have the knowledge, but I bet someone around here does; using DNS records and other similar online research tools, one could find out which websites were running and then with the wayback machine see what was served up by that web hosting machine.

I'll bet the FBI has the knowledge.

Interesting how much of that could have been released and or will be released by those fed up with her antics.
