#1 Needless to say, there's more to come on this.
Everything she viewed is logged, if someone just examines the log, they are boned.

#2 Does the President have authority to do this or is this considered a criminal leak?

#5 Considering the type of elitist pile of dog poop HRC is, she wouldn't be writing the book but some ghost writer did. So, some clown got access to TS material.

The law is a little fuzzy when it comes to the President giving access or releasing info.
If HRC had her clearance still, the president can legally giver her all the access he wants to anything. He really is the end point for access and release.
The president can also release classified material as wall as he can designate it as approved for release.

If she didn't have a clearance... that is when things get fuzzy. The president can release classified info, but to one citizen that doesn't have clearances... would be an interesting legal argument.

#7 Zero granted HRC access to highly classified info and Donna Brazile also fed Hillary debate questions to the "Beest" and she still lost. Bad candidate.

#8 Giving one candidate for president what was apparently unlimited access to classified information when that candidate is a member of your own party would appear to be a political act, and one of a kind inappropriate even for a president.
Since ghostwriters actually write the memoirs, the issue is: were Ms. Clinton's ghostwriters cleared for access to sensitive highly classified information? If not, it would be a felony for her to divulge any of such information found by her to them, rendering it useless for her memoirs.
By the way the broadening of government access to clandestinely obtained information by President Obama days before leaving office seems a strange and inexplicable act. Can we somehow find out the claimed motivation for it?

#9 Little by little that business about Trump and Putin colluding to hack the election is beginning to fade away as Democrat "resistance" goes on defense.

#11 Come on people, you know she was on Susan Rice's JWICs sharepoint, pulling down all that unmasked campaign talk to include in the upcoming chapter of her book, How to Cheat an Election and Blame the Russians.
