When will Hillary Clinton give up her candidacy ?

Thankfully she's above the law and we should immediately act like this isn't happening.

I'm beginning to think you don't like Hillary Clinton or something.

Hard to tell where all this will lead.

WASHINGTON — Former secretary of State Hillary Clinton agreed this week to turn over her private email server and a thumb drive containing her emails to the FBI, the latest development in a story that's been the biggest controversy in her early campaign for president.

Since the existence of that private server was first publicly revealed in March, congressional Republicans and government investigators have raised questions about her compliance with federal recordkeeping laws and the handling of classified information.

Here's what we know now:

How much classified information is in these emails? When was it classified, before or after she got it?

Investigators have discovered at least four emails that contained classified information. And McClatchy News Service reported Tuesday that two of those contained "top secret" information, according to the Intelligence Community Inspector General's office.

But the number could be much higher. The four emails were discovered as part of a sample of just 40 emails of the 30,000 Clinton has returned to the State Department. And those 30,490 emails represent only about half the 62,320 emails sent and received by Clinton during her tenure as secretary of State. Clinton says the other half are personal.

Clinton maintains she did nothing wrong. "I am confident that I never sent or received any information that was classified at the time it was sent and received," she said last month.

In an email to supporters Wednesday, the Clinton campaign explained further: "It's common for information previously considered unclassified to be upgraded to classified before being publicly released. Some emails that weren't secret at the time she sent or received them might be secret now," communications director Jennifer Palmieri said.

Federal investigators have suggested that's not the case here. The inspectors general have said the emails "contained classified information when they were generated," and "that information remains classified today."

Is there a criminal investigation?

The Justice Department originally characterized the inspector general letters as a "criminal referral," but later reversed itself. The two inspectors general looking into the matter — at the State Department and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence — have said it was not a criminal referral but "a security referral made for counterintelligence purposes."

The New York Times, which first reported on the referral, has acknowledged that its original reporting labeling it criminal was at least "confusing." The Times' public editor said the story was an important one, but that the reports of a criminal referral was a "messy and a regrettable chapter" in the newspaper's reporting.

Since then, federal officials have confirmed the existence of an FBI investigation, but have not characterized it as criminal.

What do the emails that have been released reveal?

Most of the emails show Clinton aides briefing her on various issues, and are often simply news stories cut-and-pasted into an e-mail and forwarded to the secretary. The 3,577 emails that have been publicly released to date — many of which have been heavily redacted — also deal with subjects such as her relations with Congress and routine personnel matters.

Among the biggest revelations: Sidney Blumenthal, a former White House aide to President Clinton, played a key advisory role for the secretary of State — including on relations with Libya — despite not having an official role in government, the Times has reported.

The Wall Street Journal noted that the emails also show a keen attention to domestic political issues.

None of the classified emails has been released publicly.

Has Clinton lied about her use of email?

Clinton's statements about her use of email have evolved since the existence of her private e-mail server was first revealed in March.

She at first said she set up the server for the "convenience" of having work and personal emails on one Blackberry device. She has since acknowledged using an iPad to e-mail, and says she regrets not having separate e-mail accounts for official and personal business.

Clinton told CNN last month that she "never had a subpoena" for the emails. But congressional records show such a subpoena was issued in March.

Clinton has also said she has turned over all work-related emails back to the State Department, but has acknowledged that she cannot account for 15 emails with Blumenthal that he turned over but she did not.

What does this have to do with Benghazi?

So far, very little. Although the existence of Clinton's private email server was discovered in the course of a congressional investigation into the 2012 attack on the Libyan consulate, only 8% of the emails released to date mention Benghazi. And Benghazi Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., said he's not interested in the rest.

"I have no jurisdiction over Bolivia or Paraguay or what used to be Somalia. I'm not interested in bridesmaids' dresses or yoga routines," he told CNN on Wednesday. "First of all, it's not my business. Second of all, it's not my jurisdiction. But I am entitled to every document that relates to Libya and Benghazi and what our policy was in Libya and whether anti-western sentiment contributed to the attack or whether it was a spontaneous reaction to a video, as we were told at one point."

So far, the publicly released emails show Clinton intensely involved in the attack and its aftermath, but contain no evidence that Clinton ordered security forces to "stand down," as some Republicans have alleged.

In her email to Clinton supporters Wednesday, Palmieri accused the Benghazi Committee of "spending nearly $6 million in taxpayer money to conduct a partisan witch-hunt designed to do political damage to Hillary in the run-up to the election."

So far, IMO, the Libya/Benghazi end is not going to produce much for the republicans, the classified emails might end up being troublesome for Clinton to explain away on the campaign trail. Unless more comes out than right now, she might be able to get through it. What do ya'll think?
