More than half of the memos former FBI chief 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.

You need to edit your title to include the main point: Comeys self-memos included classified info. Because the libtards on here acted like it was no problem for him to leak his inner thoughts
quote:

when the seven memos Comey wrote regarding his nine conversations with Trump about Russia earlier this year were shown to Congress in recent days, the FBI claimed all were, in fact, deemed to be government documents.

quote:

Four of the memos had markings making clear they contained information classified at the “secret” or “confidential” level

Sweet justice if he gets prosecuted for something that he let Hillary off the hook for

FBI policy forbids any agent from releasing classified information or any information from ongoing investigations or sensitive operations without prior written permission, and mandates that all records created during official duties are considered to be government property.

"Unauthorized disclosure, misuse, or negligent handling of information contained in the files, electronic or paper, of the FBI or which I may acquire as an employee of the FBI could impair national security, place human life in jeopardy, result in the denial of due process, prevent the FBI from effectively discharging its responsibilities, or violate federal law," states the agreement all FBI agents sign.

It adds that "all information acquired by me in connection with my official duties with the FBI and all official material to which I have access remain the property of the United States of America" and that an agent "will not reveal, by any means, any information or material from or related to FBI files or any other information acquired by virtue of my official employment to any unauthorized recipient without prior official written authorization by the FBI."

Comey indicated in his testimony the memos were in his possession when he left the bureau, leaving him in a position to leak one of them through his lawyer friend to the media.
Sounds like he broke the law.

Flakey Comey should have been fired on Day One of the Trump Admin.

He has had the spare time lately to write them.

The idea that him writing notes to himself gives his words more weight than his spoken words is one of the stupider widely believed ideas out there.

Comey testified that he hadn't included classified information in the memos that were released to the public.

The Hill published a story noting that some of Comey's memos contained classified information raising question of DOJ violations. Trump tweeted that what he'd done is illegal.

Later reporting from the source Comey sent the copy of the memo that the NYT reported on (that triggered the SC investigation) was that the memo was marked as unclassified. Comey himself acknowledges some of his memos to self contained classified info but maintains none was included in the memo sent to his friend at Columbia. He's said the originals are all with Mueller.

Politico cites an unnamed source that says some of the information in the memo reported on was "retroactively classified", suggesting it was not classified when Comey wrote it, but was later made classified (which seems pointless since it already became public).
