Huma Abedin admits that Clinton burned daily schedules
https://nypost.com ^ | 07/04/2016 | Daniel Halper

Hillary Clinton’s closest aide revealed in a deposition last week that her boss destroyed at least some of her schedules as secretary of state — a revelation that could complicate matters for the presumptive Democratic nominee who, along with the State Department she ran, is facing numerous lawsuits seeking those very public records.

Huma Abedin was deposed in connection with a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit into Clinton’s e-mails — but her admission could be relevant to another lawsuit seeking Clinton’s schedules.

“If there was a schedule that was created that was her Secretary of State daily schedule, and a copy of that was then put in the burn bag, that . . . that certainly happened on . . . on more than one occasion,” Abedin told lawyers representing Judicial Watch, the conservative organization behind the e-mails lawsuit.

Abedin made the surprising admission in response to a question about document destruction at the Department of State. A lawyer for Judicial Watch asked: “And during your tenure at the State Department, were you aware of your obligation not to delete federal records or destroy federal records?”

Huna said a “COPY” was put in a Burn Bag.....does that mean the ORIGINAL is still around?

“I’ve never seen anyone put their schedule in the burn bag — because every one of them had a state.gov e-mail address and therefore their daily schedules became public records, as required by law.”

Sounds like the original must have been on Hillary's private server

Cont.

The FBI observes that among the most ethically challenged emails Hillary had originally hidden, that indicated Hillary was desperate to hide concerning "Selling Access" to her State Dept official actions.

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

HERE'S HOW THE CLINTONS SCREWED AFRICA OUT OF ITS VALUABLE MINING RESOURCES: The head of a Canadian company with an enormous interest in Africa....in the Congo's mining and oil sector.....Lukas Lundin of Lundin Mining.....announced a $100 million donation to the Clinton Foundation on the heels of Hillary/s first presidential campaign....as she became Secy of State.

After the Congolese government attempted to regain control of its own mines, the State Department intervened on behalf of Lundin Mining and another mining company, Freeport Mines, also a Clinton foundation donor.

A round of talks in 2010, thought to be aided by the Clinton State Department, concluded with the pair of well- connected companies (Clinton Foundation donors) retaining their stakes in the mines and with the Congolese government being shut out of its own resources.

THE STATE DEPT PAPER TRAIL---- Hillary/s State Dept Aide Shared Classified state Dept Info With Clinton Foundation
2012 Email Shows Hillary Aide Cheryl Mills sent info marked confidential to Clinton Foundation
Reported By Alana Goodman, Free Beacon September 28, 2015

A key aide of Hillary Clinton emailed classified information about the government in Congo to a staffer at the Clinton Foundation in 2012, according to a copy of the correspondence obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.

Cheryl Mills, Clinton/s chief of staff at the State Department, sent the email to the Clinton Foundation’s foreign policy director, Amitabh Desai, on July 12, 2012.

The message, which was originally obtained by the group Citizens United through a public records request, is partially redacted because it includes foreign government information that has been classified Confidential by the State Department......but was not marked classified by the State Department until this past summer.

Intelligence sources tell the Free Beacon that it would have been classified at the time Mills sent it because foreign government information is considered classified from inception.

The message could add to concerns from congressional and FBI investigators about whether former Secretary Clinton and her aides mishandled classified information while at the State Department.

About half of the forwarded message was redacted due to its classified nature before the State Department released it to Citizens United last month.

Although it is not clear what the redacted section includes, the State Department said in a court motion filed last week that it concerns both foreign government information and critical aspects of U.S. foreign relations, including U.S. foreign activities carried out by officials of the U.S. Government.

The State Department added that the disclosure of this information has the potential to damage and inject friction into our bilateral relationship with African countries whose cooperation is important to U.S. national security.

The Clinton Foundation and the State Department did not respond to request for comment about the email, or say whether Desai...a non-government employee who has worked at the foundation since 2007....would have been authorized to view Confidential information.

CNN and the other Clinton networks are all over the fake Star of David story, crucifying Trump for his tweet. Old news: Hillary being interviewed by the FBI this weekend. This proves Trump’s point that the Democrat media being in the tank for Hillary, but then, everybody knows they always support the Democrat candidate.

Sounds like she already is, while trying to make it look like she isn’t. There were a couple other things she said the other day I thought rather damning.

LOOTING AND PILLAGING THE STATE DEPT...CONT.

Secy Hillary poured billions of our tax dollars into Haiti as Bill put on his "do-good" act. But Haitian Americans protested the Clinton Foundation offices, they say dirt-poor Haitians never got a dime...all of the tax dollars have been laundered into the Clinton Foundation.

REALITY CHECK In some Haitian mountain villages there's no electricity (maybe generators for a few hours), no water, no septic, etc. - but dirt-poor Haiti does have cell-phone coverage.

Reading the many stories of Clinton "do-goodism" in Haiti....he is invariably standing before a Digicel sign. You can bet your bottom dollar the Clintons get a cut of that action.

That's Digicel's CEO on the left.

The Digicel Group is the Caribbean and Central American telecom empire run by Denis O’Brien, an Irish billionaire officially resides in Malta to avoid taxes..... O'Brien serves as chairman of the Clinton Global Initiative’s Haiti Action Network.

Digicel, the largest mobile provider in Haiti, invested $45 million in the project, which also benefited from $26.5 million in financing from the World Bank-affiliated International Finance Corporation. Hillary also tapped USAID for more tax dollars for the tax-evadng billionaire.

Digicel was also tapped by the USAID Food for Peace program, which was under the direct control of Hillary Clinton’s top aide Cheryl Mills, to administer money transfers over its mobile network. Haitians received cell phones and a free Digicel account; Digicel received grants courtesy of U.S. taxpayers, collected millions in fees from Haitians every time they used the system, and significantly expanded its user base.

But it was Bill Clinton who made it all happen.

LOOTING AND PILLAGING THE STATE DEPT....CONT

BFF---Clinton and Digicel CEO---billionaire. Dennis O'Brien.
US tax dollars poured into O'Brien's coffers thanks to the Clintons.

EXCERPT Free Beacon May 2015--- The Clintons have been working with Digicel CEO Denis O’Brien in Haiti since 2010, in the wake of the disastrous earthquake. Bill Clinton and then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had been active players in the country before the quake, but would assume almost total managerial control over the recovery effort via the State Department and the Clinton Foundation.

As Peter Schweizer documents in Clinton Cash, Digicel received millions in U.S. tax dollars from USAID, an agency overseen by the State Department, as part of the Haiti Mobile Money Initiative. The program was designed to establish a mobile money-transfer system that would allow individuals to send donations directly to friends and relatives in Haiti.

Digicel was also tapped by the USAID Food for Peace program, which was under the direct control of Hillary Clinton’s top aide Cheryl Mills, to administer money transfers over its mobile network. Haitians received cell phones and a free Digicel account; Digicel received grants courtesy of U.S. taxpayers, collected millions in fees from Haitians every time they used the system, and significantly expanded its user base.

By 2012, Digicel had captured nearly 80 percent of the Haitian mobile phone market, and Haiti had surpassed Jamaica as the company’s most profitable market. Revenues were up 14 percent compared to 2011, and Digicel’s subscriber base increased by almost 30 percent during that period. O’Brien, who holds a 94 percent stake in the privately owned firm, continued to rake in cash. In 2014 alone, O’Brien awarded himself $650 million worth of dividends.

If she gets elected, then as far as I’m concerned, America is in the beginning of its second Civil War.

Yep.

EVERY Secy of State's schedule is considered classified information (for their safety).

So when the Clinton cabal burned Hillary's schedules, they destroyed classified information....a serious crime.

Clinton's State Dept. calendar missing scores of entries
AP ^ | 6/24/2016 / FR Posted by Bulwinkle

The AP review of Clinton's calendar — her after-the-fact, official chronology of the events of her four-year term — identified at least 75 meetings with (1) longtime political donors and loyalists, (2) Clinton Foundation contributors and () corporate and other outside interests that were either not recorded or listed with identifying details scrubbed.

The AP found the omissions by comparing the 1,500-page official document with separate State Dept planning schedules supplied to Clinton by aides in advance of each day's events.

The names of at least 114 outsiders who met with Clinton were missing from her calendar, the records show... (Excerpt) Read more at bigstory.ap.org ...

I'll bet Shrillary was asked this question countless times during the 3.5 hour interview yesterday.

Oh, so she did understand the need for communications security.

As it pertains to hiding her criminal behavior.

Guess HR Clinton had so many visitors she wanted to keep hidden from public view she broke another law.

Does this ever end?
