情報監督部門再次確認希拉里"郵件門"涉及機密信息
In a Jan. 14 letter to congressional oversight committees, Charles McCullough, the inspector general of the intelligence community, wrote that he had received sworn declarations confirming the presence of the classified material from intelligence officials who have taken part in reviewing Clinton's emails as they have been released publicly by the State Department.
美國情報機構監察長查爾斯·麥卡洛於1月14日向國會監督委員會遞交了一份信函，信中顯示：情報處官員在審查希拉里私人郵箱過程中確實發現了相關機密信息，並且相關郵件已由國務院通過公共渠道傳輸。The intelligence community believes that at least several dozen of the emails sent and received by Hillary Clinton while she was secretary of state contained classified material, including intelligence material classified at the highest levels, according to a new letter by the inspector general.
該情報部門指出，在希拉里擔任美國國務卿期間，其收發的部分郵件中包含機密材料。根據美國情報機構監察長提供的報告，這些材料可能涉及最高機密以及一些絕密信息。
The new letter would suggest that the intelligence community believes many more of the emails that Clinton routed through a private server installed at her suburban New York home included information that should have been properly classified at the highest levels of secrecy. The letter was first reported by Fox News. A Clinton campaign spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
這封信件表明，情報部門確信希拉里通過其紐約郊區家中私人服務器傳輸的郵件大部分都含有情報信息，而這些信息實際上應該按照最高機密水平進行正確歸類和劃分。此信件被福克斯新聞第一手報道。希拉里的競選團隊也沒有對此事立即進行迴應。
The State Department and the intelligence community have clashed in recent months over the proper classification level of the Clinton emails. With Clinton repeatedly noting that none of the emails contain information that was marked classified at the time they were sent, State officials have typically indicated that the emails have been "upgraded" to a classified status as part of the review process to prepare them for public release.
針對希拉里郵件密級問題，國務院與情報部門在近幾個月來一直存在異議。希拉里方面始終強調這些郵件在發送之時並未設有分類標籤，而一些州政府官員則堅持認爲這些郵件已升級爲機密文件，並已作爲審查環節之一爲公開發布做好鋪墊。Clinton's use of a private email account while secretary of state has become a less politically potent issue for her since Sen. Bernie Sanders, her main rival for the Democratic presidential nomination, declared at a debate in October that Americans were "sick and tired" of hearing about her "damn emails."
希拉里在民主黨總統競選中的主要對手--參議院伯尼·桑德斯在十月份的一次辯論中聲稱，美國人民已經聽夠了希拉里那些郵件的故事，不想在此問題上糾纏不休。自此希拉里的“郵件門”事件便逐漸停息，在政治領域也不再像之前如此敏感。Still, the issue has continued to simmer, as an FBI investigation into the security of the private server proceeds and the intelligence community continues to review the content of Clinton's emails.
然而，隨着FBI對希拉里私人服務器安全方面的調查以及情報部門審查希拉里郵件內容的持續進行，“郵件門”事件還未真正結束。
