Judicial Watch: Susan Rice Admits Under Oath She Emailed with Hillary Clinton on Clinton’s Non-Government Email System and Received Emails Related to Government Business on Her Own Personal Email Account
Judicial Watch ^ | August 6, 2020 | JW Staff

Former top Obama replied ‘do not recall’ 18 times in 13-page interrogatory

Said she ‘does not recall’ who gave her key Benghazi Talking Points she used on TV, ‘does not recall’ being in any meetings regarding Benghazi in five days following attack, and ‘does not recall’ communicating with anyone in Clinton’s office about Benghazi Talking Points

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that former Obama National Security Advisor and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, Susan Rice, admitted in written responses given under oath that she emailed with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Clinton’s non-government email account and that she received emails related to government business on her own personal email account. Rice’s 2019 sworn written answers are available here .

The State Department objected to all questions, instructions and definitions posed to Rice in Judicial Watch’s court-ordered deposition and “does not recall” almost everything else, including conversations with Clinton.

In responding to each of the 13 questions asked of her, Rice claimed 18 times that she “does not recall” critical information.

Rice’s interrogatory responses come in a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit that seeks records concerning “talking points or updates on the Benghazi attack” ( Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of State (No. 1:14-cv-01242)). This FOIA lawsuit led directly to the disclosure of the Clinton email system in 2015. Judicial Watch uncovered “talking points” created by the Obama White House and other documents showing that statements about the attack made on the eve of the 2012 elections by then-National Security Advisor Susan Rice were false.

On December 6, 2018, U.S. District Court Judge Royce Lamberth ordered Obama administration senior State Department officials, lawyers and Clinton aides, as well as Susan Rice, to be deposed or answer written questions under oath. Judge Lamberth called the Clinton email system “one of the gravest modern offenses to government transparency.”

Judicial Watch’s discovery is centered upon whether Clinton intentionally attempted to evade the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) by using a non-government email system and whether the State Department acted in bad faith in processing Judicial Watch’s FOIA request for communications from Clinton’s office.

“Susan Rice didn’t recall much about the Obama administration’s response to the Benghazi terrorist attack,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “Similarly, Hillary Clinton couldn’t recall much in her written sworn responses to Judicial Watch questions – which is one reason why a federal court judge ordered her in-person deposition testimony.”

On March 2, 2020, Judge Lamberth granted Judicial Watch discovery that includes taking testimony from Clinton and Mills, under oath, regarding Clinton’s emails and the existence of records about the Benghazi attack. Clinton and Mills filed an emergency mandamus appeal to avoid testimony. Their petition is still pending before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.

It’s not a crime when democrats violate the laws and rules.

But, even if it was, they’re never held accountable, which means they’re above the law. Any republican would have been brought up on charges and convicted and imprisoned.

I hate to admit how many times the swamp has sucked me in with their Kabuki theater. Durham is just the latest example.

Susan Rice DESTROYED Libya—today a failed state which is prey for Turkey’s neo-Ottoman ambitions! And she’s an all-around liar, warmonger, and corrupter.

Will the new revelations of Rice’s unfitness for higher office disqualify her from becoming Biden’s VP pick? NOOOOO!!!!

Will the manifest unfitness of a Biden-Rice ticket for the Presidency doom it in November? I DEVOUTLY HOPE SO!!!!

Remember, an innocent man was summarily sent to prison as a scapegoat for all this.

I think you missed another reason why she'll be picked

Like Joe..she's guilty of crimes while in the Obama Admin....,

and as “civilians” they have no cover.......However....when they are running for office they have “political” cover..
any and all accusations are then “Just Purely Political” and the MSM can cover for them

VP wannabe Rice said:
<><> she ‘does not recall’ who gave her key Benghazi Talking Points she used on five Sunday TV shows,
<><>‘does not recall’ being in any meetings regarding Benghazi in five days following attack, and
<><>‘does not recall’ communicating with anyone in Clinton’s office about Benghazi Talking Points.

Looks like Hillary sent her the Clinton Playbook ...better to play an airheaded dumbass than be prosecuted for high crimes and dismeanors.
