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.

Where is Jeff Sessions in all this? Did he recuse himself from a corrupt state department, corrupt FBI?
Seems like he’s been absent more and more and more..................
Without Judicial Watch, there would effectively have been no oversight of the Obama administration. Congress did nothing.
Every year about $4 trillion dollars is spent by the Federal Government. That’s more than Germany’s total GDP and more than triple Russia’s GDP.
The FedGov is totally out of control, and the crooked Obama/Clinton team knew how to manipulate the government to their personal benefit.
The only person in DC who is trying to change our crooked crony government is Trump.
So?
Unbelievable.
Shhhhhhh. He hunting wabbits. . . .
I would be curious to know what government regulation they used in this case. Based on this interpretation....any idiot in the State Department could ask for the same ‘deal’ and they’d have to give it to them.
“I guess we will have to wait for Sessions to “spring” his trap of millions of sealed indictments.”
Oh yeah, I’m holding my breath for that.
That’s sorta like Osama bin Laden making a deal with Al Queda isn’t it?
Ping
This government is rotten to the core.
Patience...things are happening outside the misinformed FR echo chamber.
The name you will soon be hearing often is Michael Horowitz, who works for AG Sessions.
How is this, on it’s face, lawful by any stretch of the imagination?
And they want to pin down Trump with Obstruction of Justice...
Exactly.
I also need to know which department handles special non disclosure agreements that will make it legal for me to lie to Congress and clear you and Barry from any wrongdoing should this whole thing go south.
And Nixon kept his tapes...
Muslim Engagement Documents!!!!!! What the holy gobstoppers is going on here!!!!! Huma Abadin is spy for the Muslim Brotherhood.
My opinion is they set up the strike on Benghazi. No one was supposed to survive. If that gets out heads will roll including Obama. That could be why the continuous attacks on President Trump. They don’t want him snooping out their secerts.
