Stephen Hayes of the Weekly Standard has seen some FBI documents that have potential bombshell information.

Senior Clinton aide Patrick Kennedy apparently tried to make a deal with the FBI to reclassify emails that were marked “classified” in exchange for approving overseas posts for FBI agents.

BREAKING: A senior State Dept official discussed a "quid pro quo" w/the FBI in exchange for reclassification of HRC emails, per FBI docs. — Stephen Hayes (@stephenfhayes) October 15, 2016

The FBI refused to play ball:

FBI officials, including CT Dir Michael Steinbach, nixed the arrangement and refused to change the classification of the HRC emails. — Stephen Hayes (@stephenfhayes) October 15, 2016

Kennedy also asked FBI to make one sensitive HRC email "B9" FOIA exempt so it was "never to be seen again," per FBI docs. — Stephen Hayes (@stephenfhayes) October 15, 2016

Patrick Kennedy was Clinton’s “fixer” at the State Department, helping to facilitate access to Clinton for Clinton Foundation donors. He was also the point man for Clinton in the Benghazi investigation and played an important role in the email scandal.

But as close as he is to Clinton, there is no evidence that Kennedy was acting on anyone’s behalf.

There no indication in FBI docs that HRC or her campaign directed Kennedy to seek a deal on reclassifying emails. — Stephen Hayes (@stephenfhayes) October 15, 2016

Clinton didn’t have to tell Kennedy what to do. Working for the Clintons as long as he had, he knew his job was to get rid of the problem by any means necessary.

By the way, changing security classifications on emails is not the job of the FBI. Asking them to do so was at least unethical and may have been illegal.
