Clinton Struck Deal With Obama State Dept. to Keep Records Private
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 12/14/2017 | Jack Heretik

Posted on 12/14/2017 8:35:28 AM PST by gubamyster

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton struck a deal with the State Department while serving in the Obama administration that allowed her to take ownership of records she did not want made public, according to recently released reports.

Clinton and her then-deputy chief of staff Huma Abedin were permitted to remove electronic and physical records under a claim they were "personal" materials and "unclassified, non-record materials."

Judicial Watch made the revelation after filing a FOIA request with the State Department and obtaining a record of the agreement.

The newly released documents show the deal allowed Clinton and Abedin to remove documents related to particular calls and schedules, and the records would not be "released to the general public under FOIA." Abedin, for instance, was allowed to remove electronic records and five boxes of physical files, including files labeled "Muslim Engagement Documents."

The released records included a list of designated materials that "would not be released to the general public under FOIA" and were to be released "to the Secretary with this understanding."

Electronic copy of "daily files" – which are word versions of public documents and non-records: speeches/press statements/photos from the website, a non-record copy of the schedule, a non record copy of the call log, press clips, and agenda of daily activities

Electronic copy of a log of calls the Secretary made since 2004, it is a non-record, since her official calls are logged elsewhere (official schedule and official call log)

Electronic copy of the Secretary’s "call grid" which is a running list of calls she wants to make (both personal and official)

16 boxes: Personal Schedules (1993 thru 2008-prior to the Secretary’s tenure at the Department of State.

There are things happening. Those things are not good for the US. Sessions is in full collusion with Deep State. If he is too stupid to comprehend what is happening, why should we have to suffer a lengthy delay for the IG to send a report. There is nothing binding. We will never actually see the report. Meanwhile the Deep State with help from Sessions will have decimated POTUS Trump. He is on a hig wire all by himself. Sessions is poking him with a long stick.

Trump should have picked someone totally unconnected to politics to run Justice. If you want to drain the swamp, you don’t put the alligators in charge.

Did the incestuous, crony-driven State Dept ever do ANYTHING for Americans?

===============================================

Huma was at her most helpful w/ Muslim family members. One Muslim cousin (one that we know of) made out like a bandit at the State Dept.....becoming a multi-millionaire sucking up our tax dollars, and getting favored official appointments.

Muslim Huma had a lot of help paying the pricey 12,000 monthly rental.....w/ her cut of the Muslim cousins' millions.

=====================================================

Huma needs to keep pervey Anthony close-by to keep his mouth zipped (not his pants). Anthony might spill the beans about Huma's endless line of Muslim cousins dipping into the State Dept's numerous slush funds......replenished w / our tax dollars.

=========================================

REFERENCE----This'll give you nightmares, people.....counting up the endless line of Muslim Huma's Muslim cousins w/ their greedy Muslim hands in the State Dept cookie jar.

CURRENTLY UNDER HOUSE ARREST---This smirking Muslim creep is Huma's Muslim first cousin AKA "a serial swindler."
The Muslim cousin subsidized businesses w/ our tax dollars looted from Hillary's State Dept. He made six million tax dollars vanish.

EXCERPT--“Thanks for getting in touch. Would love to arrange a meeting,” Muslim Huma Abedin replied in a June 23, 2009, email to her Muslim cousin Omar Amanat and Muslim Shamil Idriss, who heads New York-based Soliya Inc.

In May 2010, then-Secy Clinton helped Soliya get access to U.N. funding by making the U.S. a participant in a U.N. high-tech media initiative called the Alliance of Civilizations.

Then in October 2010, Hillary's State Department directly awarded Soliya $1.25 million for a media technology project. “Muslim Huma helped Muslim Omar make KIT appear more valuable because of its association with the Alliance of Civilizations, which was approved by Secy Hillary and funded in part by U.S. grants (tax dollars),” said an attorney familiar with the case.

“This helped Muslim Omar raise money for KIT, which he and his Muslim brother misappropriated for other purposes. Approximately $6 million tax dollars vanished.”

Muslim Amanat took KIT Digital public in August 2009. At the time, Amanat, known as "a serial swindler,” was in personal bankruptcy and being sued by other investors. Despite his shady reputation, the Muslim still managed to gain special access to US government tax dollars thanks to his ties to his well-positioned Muslim cousin and his donations to the Clinton Foundation.

THE MONEY LAUNDRY Records show that Muslim Omar Amanat and several other Abedin Muslim family members and related Muslim charities have together donated as much as $1.2 million to the Clinton Foundation and Clinton Global Initiative, as well as the Clinton Health Access Initiative.

Omar Amanat, Abedin's Muslim cousin, who personally contributed as much as $25,000 to the Clinton Foundation, was officially appointed to the Council on Foreign Relations during thea time that Hillary Clinton was serving as US secretary of state.

==================================

While the FBI has apparently closed its espionage investigation into Clinton’s unsecured private email server (the House has reopened it), its public corruption investigation into the Clinton Foundation remains open.

It’s not clear if this still-active probe overlaps with the Amanat fraud investigation. However, investigators reportedly continue to look into alleged “pay-for-play” schemes involving the Clinton State Department and the Clinton Foundation and its wealthy donors, as well as entities that paid the Clintons millions of dollars in speaking fees.

Judicial Watch and other government watchdog groups have charged that the Clinton Foundation was a pay-for-play operation that rewarded its benefactors with State Department favors. And tax dollars....all you could possibly want.

“The state department is not permitted to enter into such an agreement.”

Agree...

Who ever approved this action should be terminated “with as much prejudice” as the law allows...

I don’t understand any of it and I especially don’t understand why the State Department would have any of her personal records when she was FLOTUS...or a sitting US Senator. If she had documents/photos etc., when she was FLOTUS why wouldn’t they have been packed and gone with the Clintons when they left the WH? Same with her time as a Senator.

I just don’t understand these people but am awfully glad that the majority of us aren’t like them....

Maybe...huma has been by her side since the rapist was in WH, so the muzzie outreach has to have been going on for decades.

One more question, do you remember the dollar amount that was said to be missing from state dept during time killary was head of it? 5billion?

Where is Jeff Sessions in all this?

Mr. Sessions is what you would call a WORTHLESS POS.

Either Trump has to DEEP SIX Sessions or Trump will eventually be dubbed complicit.

Lighten up on Sessions.

He’s playing 38-DoubleD chess...or so I’m told.
