EXCERPT--Newly released FBI documents detailing theinvest igation of Hillarys State dept emails reveal the aide who would likely follow her into the White House as chief counsel was central to a cover-up of evidence sought by investigators.
Yet despite signs, Clintons former chief of staff Cheryl Mills obstructed efforts by investigators to obtain Clintons emails, the FBI invited Mills to attend Hillarys interview at FBI headquarters as one of her lawyers.
Its absolutely outrageous, J/W President Tom Fitton said. The FBI saw massive document destruction and clear intent to withhold material evidence, he added, and they just ignored that obstruction, and even let her sit in on the interview.
The smoking gun is on page 16 of the FBIs 47-page report. It details how Mills ultimately made the determinations about which emails should be preserved before she and Clinton decided to delete the rest as personal. Clinton conducted both government and personal business using a personal email account clintonemail.com tied to an unsecured server set up in the basement of her New York home.
The FBI makes clear the procedure Mills used to sort out the emails was suspicious. Mills was the one who ordered the server host to move the emails from the server to a laptop where she could screen them. She told investigators she could not recall if emails with non-gov addresses were included in the transfer. Its unlikely they were, because an aide who helped her search told the FBI she only screened for emails sent to or from Clinton with .gov and .mil not .com addresses.--SNIP-- (Excerpt) Read more at nypost.com ...
1. She cited her 2012 concussion as the reason that she cannot remember details of briefings during her transition out of office.
2. She said she never even thought whether emails she exchanged on a future U.S. drone attack should be classified.
3. She said she thought the C before a paragraph indicated alphabetical order. The C actually stands for confidential/classified.
4. She said no one ever raised concerns to her about her use of a private email server.
5. She said she could not recall any training on how to handle classified information.
Whats more, Clinton aides told the FBI that the Secretary of State frequently replaced her Blackberry phone and the whereabouts of her old device would become unknown. The FBI report suggests there were at least 13 different devices used.
