WASHINGTON
Hillary Clinton hired a Connecticut company to back up her emails on a cloud storage system, and her lawyers have agreed to turn whatever it contains over to the FBI, a personal familiar with the situation said Tuesday.
The disclosure came as a Republican Senate committee chairman, Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson, also asked the firm to turn over to the committee copies of any Clinton emails still in its possession.
There were conflicting accounts as to whether the development could lead to recovery of any of Clintons more than 31,000 personal emails, which she said she deleted from her private server upon turning over her work-related emails to the State Department, at its request, in December 2014.
Congressional Republicans have voiced skepticism as to whether the 30,940 business emails that the Democratic presidential candidate handed over represented all of those related to her position as secretary of state. The FBI is separately investigating whether Clintons arrangement put classified information at risk but has yet to characterize it as a criminal inquiry.
Datto Inc., based in Norwalk, Conn., became the second data storage firm to become entangled in the inquiry into Clintons unusual email arrangement, which has sparked a furor that has dogged her campaign. In August, Clinton and the firm that had managed her server since June 2013, Colorado-based Platte River Networks, agreed to surrender it for examination by the FBI.

G-r-e-a-t deconstruction....thanks.
I know this has been said before, but doesn’t 31,000 ‘personal’ emails sound like a lot, especially for someone who’s supposed to be busy as SOS?
You’re so right.
Looking for that one smoking gun email will drag on and on for years. Seems the FBI has already gotten enough to put old thunder thighs away for a good while, thereby allowing even more time to find that smoking gun that puts her away for good. My frustrations, along with millions of my fellow Americans is that it is taking soooooooooooooo long to do the right thing, getting rid of her.
Oh, she was busy. Very busy.
In true Clintonian fashion, it all depends upong the meaning of "personal." It's personal if she thinks it's none of our business.
Among a million other things that infuriate me about our feckless press, the reporting on this personal vs. business aspect of the email issue stands out.
By Hillary's own account, her so-called personal emails outnumber the ones she turned over as business related. More than half the emails she sent/received were deemed personal? Not even approaching the realm of believability. Yet the press dutifully refers to those emails as personal. In fact, they know nothing about the nature of them other than what Hillary claims.
These are emails merely alleged to be personal. Claimed to be personal. By the prime suspect in the investigation and her accomplices. Anyone with half a brain knows it's a damn lie.
She has been lying to everyone. Arrest her already!
