A federal judge Thursday rejected the Obama administration’s efforts to halt all of the open-records lawsuits seeking access to former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s emails.

Judge Richard J. Leon, without comment, rejected the Justice Department’s request for a stay in a short order posted online.

He’s the first judge to rule on the request, which the department filed last week as it tries to get a single judge to oversee the more than 30 open-records cases seeking Clinton emails. Judge Leon’s rejection probably puts the nail in that idea, since it would take universal buy-in from the more than a dozen judges hearing the cases in order to force coordination.

Does anyone giving this any thought honestly...HONESTLY believe that Hillary of all people does not have FBI/CIA/NSA ‘files’ in sum, on every fedgov employee, elected, appointed or hired?

This is a Clinton. This is a Democrat. There is probably not a seeing eye dog or comfort squirrel within 500 nautical miles of DC that bitch doesn’t have everything yup to and including naked pictures on.

Hillary Clinton’s e-mails as Secretary of State belong to the people of the United States. I want to know what is in them. What the heck, our enemies already do.

State Department is “overwhelmed” because they’re actually having to work. It’s tough when you can’t get in your daily dose of government-funded porn viewing.
