MSNBC Fact Checks Hillary Clinton’s False Statements About Classified Emails

SCARBOROUGH: “Two things, Clinton has been found using at least two personal devices, not one. She used her cell phone and iPad as e-mail as Secretary of State and the State Department did not automatically save all departmental e-mail until February of this year. Only a tiny fraction of its e-mails were saved. And that's under the assumption she exclusively used State Department e-mails. All in all, this appears just to be the tip of the iceberg. The State Department inspectors general said they found classified materials sent to and from Clinton's Chappaqua home-baked server even though they only had access to a small sample of 40 e-mails. Of those, they found that four contained government secrets. That is information that if exposed could potentially harm national security. It's information that is meant to be transferred and stored exclusively on secure computer networks with special safeguards. Again, of the self-selected e-mails that the Clinton camp chose to release, one in 10 of those e-mails seems to have held classified information. Put in perspective, Hillary Clinton turned in over 30,000 e-mails she said were work-related. She destroyed tens of thousands of e-mails, wiped clean her home-baked server and possibly destroyed copies of countless classified documents improperly stored and sent from the United States' top diplomat. The extent of the cover-up, if there ever was one, will not be known because that evidence which could either clear or convict her is destroyed by the politician who is now at the center of this national security debate. Unfortunately, there seems to be much more to come from this story. But what we've seen so far is that it's unlikely that this is going to be the last time Hillary Clinton will be changing her story. Mika, you go through it. And you go back. We could talk all morning about that U.N. press conference. It's just baffling to me that they sent her out to say things that they knew were going to be countered in the press in the coming weeks and months. This is a growing problem.”
