In the context of defamation actions (libel and slander) as well as invasion of privacy, a public figure cannot succeed in a lawsuit on incorrect harmful statements in the United States unless there is proof that the writer or publisher acted with actual malice by knowing the falsity or by reckless disregard for the truth.[2] The legal burden of proof in defamation actions is thus higher in the case of a public figure than in the case of an ordinary person.

You can’t be reporting flat out lies about anyone and claim it’s NEWS
Seriously, evince? The old "Buuuut Mommmm...everyone else is doing it!" excuse? LOL
There's nothing wrong with using a private server unless using it to pass classified information. That's where Hillary fucked up and Colin Powell did not.
Are you claiming all the Democrats are using Yahoo to send classified info?
Here's another point to ponder: if you're a hostile nation with a large hacking team, which targets would you go after? The Secretary of State who exclusively uses a private server or hacking into the US national security network?
Bill Clintons chief of staff.....

Unauthorized removal and destruction of classified material
The National Archives building in Washington, D.C.
On July 19, 2004, it was revealed that the United States Department of Justice was investigating Berger for unauthorized removal of classified documents in October 2003 from a National Archives reading room prior to testifying before the 9/11 Commission. The documents were five classified copies of a single report commissioned from Richard Clarke covering internal assessments of the Clinton Administration's handling of the unsuccessful 2000 millennium attack plots. An associate of Berger said Berger took one copy in September 2003 and four copies in October 2003, allegedly by stuffing the documents into his socks and pants.[20][21] Berger subsequently lied to investigators when questioned about the removal of the documents.[22]
In April 2005, Berger pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of unauthorized removal and retention of classified material from the National Archives in Washington, D.C.[23]
Berger was fined $50,000,[24] sentenced to serve two years of probation and 100 hours of community service, and stripped of his security clearance for three years.[22][25] The Justice Department initially said Berger only stole copies of classified documents and not originals,[26] but the House Government Reform Committee later revealed that an unsupervised Berger had been given access to classified files of original, uncopied, uninventoried documents on terrorism. During the House Government Reform Committee hearings, Nancy Kegan Smith — who was the director of the presidential documents staff at the National Archives and Records Administration — acknowledged that she had granted Berger access to original materials in her office.[27]
On December 20, 2006, Inspector General Paul Brachfeld reported that Berger took a break to go outside without an escort. "In total, during this visit, he removed four documents ... Mr. Berger said he placed the documents under a trailer in an accessible construction area outside Archives 1 (the main Archives building)". Berger acknowledged having later retrieved the documents from the construction area and returned with them to his office.[28][29]
On May 17, 2007, Berger relinquished his license to practice law as a result of the Justice Department investigation. Saying, "I have decided to voluntarily relinquish my license. ... While I derived great satisfaction from years of practicing law, I have not done so for 15 years and do not envision returning to the profession. I am very sorry for what I did, and I deeply apologize." By giving up his license, Berger avoided cross-examination by the Bar Counsel regarding details of his thefts.[30]

Althea told me...
Notwithstanding Comey's claim, many have said that her server was more secure than the govt's.
Lemme guess, the entire Hillary staff. LOL

Althea told me...
Yes. That was mentioned when the claim about her server's security was being discussed.
Regarding Comey's testimony? No, I believe Comey and the FBI. LOL
This was Comey's July statement, before the Weiner laptop revealed Hillary the Liar: https://www.politico.com/story/2016/07/transcript-james-comey-clinton-email-225103
The revelation of the Weiner laptop proved Hillary lied about using her email for classified material: https://www.cnn.com/2017/05/03/poli...uma-abedin-forwarding-classified-information/
This is for the LW conspiracy theorists who claim the FBI did it on purpose: https://www.factcheck.org/2018/08/clintons-emails-weiners-laptop-and-a-falsehood/
Dude, you don't get it; she could have had the world's most secure system but she wasn't authorized to use it for transmitting classified material. When she got caught, she wasn't even given a wrist slap, she got a Hall Pass from Obama via the DOJ.

Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information, our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case. Prosecutors necessarily weigh a number of factors before bringing charges. There are obvious considerations, like the strength of the evidence, especially regarding intent. Responsible decisions also consider the context of a person’s actions, and how similar situations have been handled in the past.
In looking back at our investigations into mishandling or removal of classified information, we cannot find a case that would support bringing criminal charges on these facts

One of the under-appreciated angles to the story about Hillary Clinton's email problem is that Hillary Clinton isn't the only one with an email problem. In fact, in an ironic twist, some of the former Secretary of State's leading Republican critics have also relied on personal email accounts and shielded selected messages from public scrutiny.
Aliyah Frumin explained this week, for example, that "several potential 2016 Republican presidential candidates are facing email and transparency issues of their own" and they "also leaned heavily on private emails during their time in office -- and have been criticized in the past for not releasing other documents -- just as they skewer Clinton for not being forthright with her personal emails."
The Wall Street Journal today, for example, takes a look at former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush's (R) record.
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, a likely Republican presidential candidate, primarily used a personal email account on his own computer server when he was in office from 1999 to 2007. In December, he posted online hundreds of thousands of emails from both the private and government accounts. Mr. Bush's spokeswoman said that emails from the private account unrelated to government business weren't turned over to the state or preserved. [...] But much like with Mrs. Clinton, the decision over which emails should be considered official and which remain private was made by Mr. Bush. It is unclear how many emails Mr. Bush withheld because he deemed them unrelated to state business.
Barbara Petersen, president of the First Amendment Foundation, told the WSJ that Jeb Bush "did exactly what Hillary did." The former governor and his aides "went through those emails and decided what were public-record emails and what wasn't."
By some accounts, the messages Team Bush chose not to share related to "politics" and "campaign donors asking for favors" -- topics that may be relevant in a presidential campaign.
Bush is hardly the only one among the likely GOP presidential candidates with this email problem. Indeed, most of the Republican field should probably hope this issue goes away quickly:
* Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R): Though he called Clinton's use of a private email address an "outrage," Walker is at the center of a Wisconsin controversy surrounding his use of a private email address.
* Florida Sen. Marco Rubio (R): The Republican lawmaker deleted emails from his private account during his tenure in state government, despite using his personal account to conduct business related to his official duties.
* New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R): The Bergen Record reported this week, "Nearly a year before revelations that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton used her personal email account for official business, the Christie administration was chastised because members of its own staff communicated through private emails. And that criticism came not from Governor Christie's political foes, but from lawyers hired by his team to investigate the burgeoning George Washington Bridge lane-closing scandal."
* Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal (R): Both Republican governors conducted official business from their private email accounts and have not released the emails for public scrutiny.
