FactCheck.org: "The State Dept IG contradicts several of Clinton's long-standing talking points" [View all]
Summary
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has said that her decision to use a private email account and server for government business while secretary of state was allowed by the State Department. She has said my predecessors did the same thing, and insisted she fully complied with every rule in preserving her work emails.
We have taken issue with those claims, and now so does the State Department Office of Inspector General, which issued a report on May 26 that contradicts several of Clintons claims about her emails:
* The IG report cited department policies dating to 2005 that require normal day-to-day operations to be conducted on government servers, contrary to Clintons claim that her server was allowed. It also said she had an obligation to discuss her email system with cybersecurity officials, but theres no evidence that she sought or received their approval.
* The IG report said Clinton should have turned over her emails before she left office not 21 months after she left. [S]he did not comply with the Departments policies that were implemented in accordance with the Federal Records Act, the report said.
* Clinton has said her emails were captured and preserved immediately on the system at the State Department because she emailed department officials at their government accounts. The IG report said that is not an appropriate method of preserving any such emails that would constitute a Federal record.
