Hillary Clinton -- did she click on a porn link?

We’ve been told that Hillary Clinton is the “smartest woman in the world.” But it now appears that she wasn’t smart enough to keep from clicking on a porn link in her email that could have compromised information on one of the many devices she is now known to have used.

On Friday, the Smoking Gun reported:

An FBI investigative report released today includes a section on the “cyber targeting” of Clinton’s “personal E-mail and Associated Accounts” during her tenure at the State Department.

Though riddled with redactions, the FBI report reveals that Clinton became concerned about the legitimacy of an e-mail purportedly sent to her “from the personal e-mail of a State official.” The e-mail sent to Clinton, the FBI noted, “contained a potentially malicious link.”

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

In reply to the suspect e-mail, Clinton wrote, “Is this really from you? I was worried about opening it!” The FBI report does not indicate to which e-mail account Clinton sent her response.

At one point, Clinton aide Huma Abedin wrote to an associate indicating that Clinton was concerned about someone “hacking into her email” since Clinton had received an e-mail from a “known…associate” containing “a link to a website with pornographic material.”

“While the FBI report does not state how Clinton knew the link in the suspect e-mail led to porn, it appears obvious that she clicked on the link,” the Smoking Gun added (Emphasis mine).

According to the FBI report, there was “no additional information” as to whether “the specific link referenced by Abedin was used as a vector to infect Clinton’s device.”

The Smoking Gun continued:

That declaration is followed by two redacted lines. The FBI report then picks up with this statement: “Open source information indicated, if opened, the targeted user’s device may have been infected, and information would have been sent to at least three computers overseas, including one in Russia.”

Due to redactions in the report, it is unclear whether the link referred to in the open source material is the same one contained in the e-mail that was sent to Clinton and led her to “a website with pornographic material.”

It should be obvious this woman has no business in the White House…
