People have gone to jail for accidentally removing this type of information from a secure location.\u00a0 The tone of the e-mail implies that Huma Abedin did this routinely and was only concerned this time because she was going to have \u201c<strong><strong>an ambassador<\/strong><\/strong>\u201d ride on the next drive.\u00a0 Incredibly, she doesn\u2019t ask this person to take the \u201c<strong><strong>burn stuff<\/strong><\/strong>\u201d to a secure location;
