Justice Department "Reviewing" At Least Two of the Memos Comey Leaked to His Pal To Leak to the NYT, For Possible Violations of Classified Material Law

One of the memos contained information that wasn’t classified when Comey turned it over to a Columbia law school professor, but was later upgraded to “confidential,” the lowest level of classification, The Wall Street Journal reported.
In the other, Comey redacted parts that he knew were classified to protect that information before he handed the documents over to the law prof, Daniel Richman, who passed them along to The New York Times.

Sean Davis noted this past January that, seven months later (and now nine months later), CNN still hasn't corrected its #FakeNews false reportage that Trump was lying when he said Comey leaked classified memos.

We now know that one was "confidential" and the other contained classified information (which Comey, allegedly, redacted).

CNN just leaves its original story up, uncorrected, no matter how much weight of its falsity piles up against it.

And who wrote it? Jake Tapper, the Super-Factual Only Honest Man in the Room (when James Comey isn't in the room, naturally).

Sean Davis wrote in January:

Trump's tweet [accusing Comey of leaking classified information] was based on a report from The Hill that a majority of the memos taken by Comey after he was fired contained classified information:

More than half of the memos former FBI Director James Comey wrote as personal recollections of his conversations with President Trump about the Russia investigation have been determined to contain classified information, according to interviews with officials familiar with the documents.
CNN's Jake Tapper, however, took issue with Trump’s statement, and wrote the following lede and supporting paragraphs in a CNN story accusing the president of peddling false information about the nature of the information leaked by James Comey after he was fired by the president:

The Columbia University Law School professor and confidant of former FBI Director James Comey refuted a charge by President Donald Trump and his advocates in the media Monday: that Comey shared classified information with journalists.
Daniel Richman, with whom Comey shared at least one memo -- the contents of which Richman shared with New York Times reporter Michael Schmidt -- said President Trump was simply wrong.
"No memo was given to me that was marked 'classified,'" Daniel Richman told CNN. "No memo was passed on to the Times."

Davis notes that's the same dodge Hillary Clinton used -- asked if she put classified documents on her system, she said they weren't marked classified.

As regards some of Hillary's emails, that's because she ordered her minions to strip the classified markings out. In others, it's because the documents were so fresh they hadn't been formally classified -- yet.

The only person who could mark Comey's classified memos as classified was James Comey, because no one else knew about them -- until he gave them to a pal to read to the New York Times.

"Your Honor, I couldn't have stolen those TVs from the warehouse. They had no price tags, so they must've been free."
"That's because you stole them before the price tags could be placed on them."
— Sean Davis (@seanmdav) April 20, 2018

Davis continues:

As it turns out, however, the information leaked by Comey was classified, and the records in his possession were clearly government records which Comey was not authorized to possess or distribute. How do we know the information was classified? Because the FBI itself told Congress as much. In fact, the information leaked by Comey was so sensitive that members of Congress were not even allowed to read the memos he wrote outside of a Special Compartmented Information Facility, or SCIF, a highly secure room or area designed to prevent classified information consumed within from being improperly distributed.

Instead of correcting his #FakeNews false story, Jake Clapper chooses to tweet superficial #ResumeEnhancing phony sentiments about veterans to get his #SalonHot25 Spirit Squad to vouch for his good conservative character.

As we're seeing, it's standard practice for DC swamp creatures to cover up the stink of their falsehoods with the cheap dimestore perfume of sanctimony.

This is all true.

However, there is also the political angle.

The most prominently clean people who could shoot at Trump are now dirty. They would have been great assets on the campaign trail (directly or indirectly) to use to besmirch Trump and the GOP as a whole.

As it stands, they're all dirty.

Trump shows the world how dirty other people are by forcing them into the mud with him.

In terms of grand strategies, it seems to be a pretty good one so far.

A document is either classified or not classified at it's creation (Original Classification). The burden of proof for ensuring a document is properly marked and handled (ie, who has access to it) with the correct classification lies on the creator of that document - in this case James Comey. This is why documents which are even remotely likely to be considered classified get reviewed by a neutral third party to ensure they are appropriately marked.

James Comey did not do this.

To be clear, while there are many markings which can appear on a
document (ie, NOFORN - no release to foreigners, LES - law enforcement
sensitive, FOUO - for official use only) Title 22 CFR 9.4 states what are the classification markings as far as the United States Government is concerned - CONFIDENTIAL, SECRET, and TOP SECRET. Comey's memo contains information that is CONFIDENTIAL and possibly also SECRET and should have been marked and handled accordingly.

Additionally, Comey's memos would be covered by:
22 CFR 9.4 - Original Classification, (c) (1) containing information relating to:
(ii) Foreign government information
(iii) Intelligence activities (including covert action), intelligence sources or methods, or cryptology
(iv) Foreign relations or foreign activities of the United States, including confidential sources
Each
department has a classification review process that ensures anything
released conforms to Federal law. The memos should have been reviewed by
an impartial third party within the FBI (or at the least should have
been reviewed by an FBI in house lawyer) and the classified portions
redacted prior to release.
This did not happen.
Some
commentators are saying that Comey, as the Director of the FBI, would
have been in his right to release the memos on his own authority. The
problem with that argument is that at a minimum the FBI's internal
document classification review board would have had to have a look at
the memos as well as the FBI's own in house lawyers, prior to their release, just to ensure
everything was done by the book.
This. Did. Not. Happen.
Comey
wrote these memo, containing information he knew to be at a minimum CONFIDENTIAL and possibly SECRET, and then released them to a friendly journalist. Upon
review the FBI determined there was classified and/or sensitive
information in the memos and the Director of the FBI leaked this
information, concerning an active law enforcement investigation, to the
media without having even an in house lawyer look at it and say
"Kosher."
However, something much more damaging to Comey's
credibility and will pour gasoline on this dumpster fire deserves to be
shouted from the roof tops:
If FBI Director James Comey had a
penchant for creating memos for his contacts with Donald Trump... where
are his memos for contacts with Andrew McCabe, AG Loretta Lynch, AG Eric
Holder, Sec. Hillary Clinton and President Barack Obama.
I think we all know the answer to that one...

108 Daniel Richman, with whom Comey shared at least one memo -- the contents of which Richman shared with New York Times reporter Michael Schmidt -- said President Trump was simply wrong.

"No memo was given to me that was marked 'classified,'" Daniel Richman told CNN. "No memo was passed on to the Times."

So ... the director of the FBI gives you some memos that he won't give to anyone else. He gives them to you, secretly. And you give them to the New York Times.

Sure. This is how it always happens. Everyday occurence for some shlub professor. Anything that the Director of the FBI says to him, or gives him, he feels free to just pass onto some newspaper ... because that's what friends can do. After all, there's no reason that the Director of the FBI didn't just give them to the New York Times, himself. He just didn't feel like it. Comey was too tired to bother talking to any reporters that night. And he didn't even intend it, anyway. Comey was just yapping it up with his friend, the loser professor, and if the loser professor happened to paste the memos on the wall of some bathroom, who cares? You have to expect that friends will pass along anything you secretly give to them without a thought. Because that's what friendship is all about - the inability to trust anyone with a secret ...

Are they really going to say that is he generates a new memo any and all of that material, it wouldn't be classified merely because he didn't mark it as classified?

NONE of this would have come out if Dems would have just accepted the election and let it lie. But no, they had to dig it all up, litigate, screech about it for 15 months and counting - it can't just be dropped anymore, and things like this take on a life of their own once they get rolling.

Comey can't say he didn't know it was classified, or that it wasn't classified because it wasn't marked classified, because in 2 of them, Comey himself writes at the beginning "this has classified info in it."

Technically speaking a document as a whole is classified at the level of the highest classified information it contains.

For example, a document could contain 99 paragraphs of information marked CONFIDENTIAL and 1 paragraph marked SECRET and the entire document would be
marked and handled as SECRET.

Regardless of if Comey "redacted" the SECRET portion prior to
releasing it to his friend the entire document itself is supposed to be handled
and treated as SECRET.

When the whirlwind of fury comes from the
Throne of God, when the frowns of his countenance
Drive the nations together, who can stand?

When Sin claps his broad wings over the battle,
And sails rejoicing in the flood of Death;
When souls are torn to everlasting fire,
And fiends of Hell rejoice upon the slain,

O who can stand? O who hath causèd this?
O who can answer at the throne of God?

This proves ISIS are not Muslim. As we all know, Muslims are the most enlightened and progressive of all. They'd never advocate sending us back to the stone age.

>>>Last September, al-Baghdadi issued a recording suggesting media as targets, saying jihadists should "intensify one attack after another against the infidels' information centers and their headquarters of ideological war."

That's nice of him, but it seems naive.

174 I consulted the Bible I got after completing a Sunday school class in 1969. It has an asterisk and the note that "some authorities believe that the number is 616".

The reason it has to be 666 is that, in terms of the occult numerology that Revelations dabbles in and that really doesn't belong in Christianity at all, 1 is the number of God the Father, 3 is the number of the Trinity, 4 is the number of Earth and Nature and the Universe, 6 is Man, 7 is God and Nature and the Universe and Everything all together (perfection), 10 is the Nations of Men, 12 is the People of God.

So 3 6's is a Man making himself into a God. Hence the "666".

198 There was a stink about a dozen years ago where someone said "hey, the number of the Beast might be 616" and it was supposed to be new information and everyone frothed about it.

I consulted the Bible I got after completing a Sunday school class in 1969. It has an asterisk and the note that "some authorities believe that the number is 616".

That's because there is actually a manuscript with "616". This leads people to think that Nero is the beast. He was known as either "Caesar Nero" or "Caesar Neron" whose letters when you convert them to numbers are either 616 or 666. The theory I like the best is that the number of perfection 777 symbolizes the trinity. Satan as 666 is ever striving but falling short of that number.

I think they do this so that it becomes record - there's a trail of the lie being repeated numerous times, by numerous sources, while the truth/correction is hidden under all these repeated lies. When someone is researching this decades from now, will they think: it must be true based on the numerous reports, over months, years. Will they even find the correction.

267 I had the local am station on this afternoon and the show that follows Rush, had on a Cato Institute researcher who is going to go to the Supreme Court when it hears arguments about Trump's travel ban(remember, it's been blocked by Federal judges) to provide his brilliant research that demonstrates that the extreme vetting we have done since 911 has blocked any outside jihadi's from getting in. The only one, according to him, since 2001 has been the San Bernadino female shooter. He's looked at 352 court cases and only one person has died in all those other cases of terrorism. According to him, the travel ban is a waste of money and is preventing immigrants from coming here that would be productive , spend their money and help the economy.

Guy Gordon, the former weatherman who hosts the show and is dumb as a box of rocks, meekly pointed out that the travel ban(which the researcher kept calling a muslim ban, which he insisted was unconstitutional) is for countries that do not have proper paperwork and vetting in place in their countries.

Researcher claimed that wasn't true. He then went on to claim that Pakistan can't vet their citizens either, nor can Saudi Arabia and there are no bans in place there.

Dumbass Gordon didn't point out those are muslim countries. And are much more advanced than say, Sudan, or Somalia.

I had to turn it off.

281 There is due process and there is Swamp Process. Due process goes through a normal sequence of actions to determine whether an event occured outside the established standards of the law, which are accepted by all and are enforced by rightful authority.

Swamp Process progresses through lies and the use of government systems to treat those lies as truth.

Look at the Kafkaesque gyrations that have been made to ensure the unequal application of the law over the past two years:

-The entire Clinton Home Brew Server episode, including the Devine Judgement of James Comey that no crime was commited in that His omniscience revealed that no one would prosecute.

-The magical mystery review of thousands of e-mails in the Wiener laptop over the course of a few days that established that every e-mail was innocent.

-The data mining of FBI information and NSA data by "contractors"

-The Clinton Dossier that served to abuse the topsecret FISA court system in order to spy on Americans.

-The unmasking of hundreds of names in NSA data

-Leaking sensitive government information.

-The production of "documents", kept from the public and congressional oversight, used to justify the assembly of a team of lawyers that harass the Swamp's enemies under color of law.

Most people can recognize the double standards and self dealing that is going on.

The First National Treasure movie was fun ... but the story int hat was really retarded. Nick Cage found the ship, which was the original clue that his great-great-great-whatever grandfather had given. SO WTF had the family been hunting that whole time? The Charlotte was the only friggin clue and no one knew it was even a ship until Nick Cage found it iced up. 200 years of that family chasing one clue that no one had any idea about.

And then John Voight has the temerity to tell Cage that the code on the back of the Declaration is just one more clue that will lead to another and another ... but neither he, nor his father, nor HIS father ... had ever even found the original clue - Charlotte.

I loved the part where Nick Cage said that Sean Bean could find them because he had unlimited resources ... and then we see Bean looking up the words on a friggin internet search and finding the Liberty Bell! That was too funny.

But the chick was super cute and the sidekick was funny, which is really what made the movie.

309 I thought National Treasure 2 was going to be about some other nation's great treasure. It would have been an awesome series, different national treasures. The amber room that the Nazis stole from Russia, King John's lost royal gems and treasures in England, etc. Each movie about a vast treasure hidden away in another nation, restored by Nicholas Cage.

I really don't think it was that.

Trump has made incredibly stupid personnel decisions (how many people has he hired and then fired?) so it doesn't surprise me Comey was one of many.

My only guess is someone purposely kept him in the dark about his role. Or maybe he thought Comey was on his team because of the late reopening of the Hillary case.

But it's definitely not a smart gamble to keep an FBI Director that you think is out to get you.

We're fortunate that Comey was stupid enough to have left the paper trail he did, but Mark Felt (deep throat) is what destroyed Richard Nixon, and he was only an associate director of the FBI.

I'll just never understand though why Republican PResidents don't fire EVERY single person they possibly can on Day 1. These people also undermined Bush at every step as well.

It may com from a satire site, (sorry) but there are other references to this group on the internet. I find it entirely within probability that Hillary joined a coven. She spent some of her honeymoon watching possessed people at some Voodoo ceremony and the spirit cooking is weird. In addition, John Podesta gives off creepy vibes and has disturbing artwork in his apartment.

325 It is irrelevant whether the documents he handed over to his pal were classified or unclassified; those documents, produced while on the job, on a government computer were not his property to disseminate. He committed a crime.

Of course, as we have learned, committing a crime isn't particularly important if you're a Democrat or a member of the Deep State.

Nice try, but ... no. The internet was already well established by the time of National Treasure. It was the writers who just didn't grok continuity.

ANd, like I said, the whole point of the story was that his great^8 grandfather was given the clue "The secret lies with Charlotte" and no one had any idea what that meant until Nick Cage. So what was the family chasing? I'll tell you what - NOTHING!

Look, National Treasure was a very fun movie but the story had so many problems and holes in it that it really doesn't pass the smell test. It is a true "guilty pleasure".

Posted by: joncelli, nominal Lutheran at April 20, 2018 05:05 PM (1FhAQ)

330 The issue with the classification. Each paragraph in the document must be classified, with the overall document bearing the classification of the highest level of classification contained in the document. If one paragraph of an unclassified document is classified as (S//NF), the overall classification of that document is SECRET NOFORN. If you remove that paragraph, the classification of the document reverts to UNCLASSIFIED, so you can redact the S//NF paragraph and the document would be considered UNCLASSIFIED. Having said that, the only person who can make that determination would be the originator of the document. But as previously stated, the mere fact that the fucking head of the FBI did not bother to mark the memo with classification markings does not mean the information in the document is not classified. It just means, me in my capacity would be opening up an investigation on his sorry ass for mishandling and/or compromising classified information.

334 One other point about classification: the assemblage of information may actually raise the classification of the whole above that of its parts. You can have ten lines marked confidential in a document that with those ten lines together make the document secret.

I have even been in the rarified presence of something with a classified classification.

337 Digging into this Coven story and sources, bcz it is too easy to get burned nowadays.

The Columbia Post appears to have been news with a sarcastic take, but has been sold and the new owners are moving the site and so now I don't know what to make of it.

That said, there are links about the Coven story that I'm following. Including an Instagram pic.

For now, it appears she went to speak to them about her book...no surprise there...and they gave her a membership. Not sure that is really joining a coven. I mean, Pantsuit is pretty hollow, but want to be careful on fake news.

If facts appear to be different after more research, I'll post them.

If they gave her a membership she belongs to the group. Does that mean she's doing ceremonies and drawing pentagrams every week? Nope. It means her Christianity meant so little to her that she accepted a membership from a coven. It's bad news. You cannot be a Witch and a Christian. You cannot be a Muslim and a Christian.

342 There was some joker (bad joke) in the Episcopal Church-who while serving an Episcopal Church as a priest-was the head of some Druid group.

343 The Wing looks like a Sorority, but they say they are a coven.

They are being investigated for being Exclusive.

"On the subject of The Wing’s own recent woes — an investigation by the New York City Human Rights Commission into whether the organization’s women-only policy breaks anti-discrimination laws — many of the members evinced frustration. “Everybody’s just kind of like, this is fucking ridiculous,” said Turner.

349 So, if his "attorney" received classified information and then passed it on - which is illegal, then he ... um ... illegally passed classified information. Which is a ... um ... crime. And, if the "attorney" is also a ... get this ... criminal, then attorney client privilege no longer applies.

i want a 4 am no-knock raid, followed by a frog-walk. Then i want a judge backed by the ghost of Barry Goldwater to go through all of the "lawyers" shit and release anything that looks even a little bit shady directly to Sean Hannity. That precedent is set. Something Kurt Schlicter said about playing by your own rules and all.

I'm just not willing to say she is definitely a member. That's all.

The best answer I've got is I don't know, for now.

You cannot serve two masters...I agree on that.

351 If they weren't marked classified, why did Richman think Comey was giving them to him?

Why did Comey need to give them to anyone, and why didn't he just 'leak' them himself?
Posted by: Mr. Peebles at April 20, 2018 04:06 PM (oVJmc)

Late to the post, but Richman is being purposefully misleading. The U.S. doesn't mark classified documents "Classified." Those documents are marked either CONFIDENTIAL, SECRET or TOP SECRET in level of potential damage to national interests if obtained illegally. There is much more complexity to the system, but those are the basic markings.

Furthermore, an UNCLASSIFIED document can have distribution restrictions or be marked FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY.
