Judicial Watch Sends New FOIAs to Probe Clinton Secret Email System, Lawsuits
Judicial Watch ^ | 9 Mar 15 | Unknown

Posted on 03/11/2015 9:39:20 AM PDT by elhombrelibre

Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that it submitted six Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests with the Department of State seeking information about Hillary Clinton’s and other State Department employees’ uses of secret email accounts to conduct government business. Judicial Watch submitted the FOIA requests on Friday, March 6, 2015, seeking:

Communications between employees of the U.S. Department of State and former Secretary Clinton and/or her representatives relating to emails sent or received by former Secretary Clinton on non- “state.gov” email addresses: from June 1, 2014, to the present.

Records concerning the use of a non-­ “state.gov” email address by former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. Including records concerning security, classification, preservation, and compliance with the Federal Records Act and/or the Freedom of Information Act: from January 20, 2009, to February 20, 2009.

Records that identify the number and names of all current and former officials, officers, or employees of the State Department from January 20, 2009, to the present who used email addresses other than their assigned “state.gov” email addresses to conduct official State Department business.

Records that identify the policies and/or procedures in place to ensure that emails that were sent or received by officials, officers, or employees of the U.S. Department of State who used email addresses other than “state.gov” email addresses to conduct official State Department business were searched for responsiveness to FOIA requests.

Communications between employees of the Department of State and officials or employees of the White House and/or Executive Office of the President relating to the use of non- “state.gov” email addresses by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton: from June 1, 2014, to the present.

Communications between officials or employees of the Department of State and Members of Congress or Congressional staff, or Congressional Members or staff of the U.S. House of Representatives Select Committee on Benghazi relating to the use of non- “state.gov” email addresses by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton: from June 1, 2014, to the present.

The State Department lawfully must provide these documents, or a justification for withholding them, to Judicial Watch within 20 working days, or be subject to federal lawsuits under FOIA.

These six new FOIA requests are in addition to requests filed last week directly seeking Mrs. Clinton’s emails.

There are 18 lawsuits, ten of which are active in federal court, as well as about 160 Judicial Watch FOIA requests that could be affected by Mrs. Clinton and her staff’s use of secret email accounts to conduct official government business. In Judicial Watch’s various FOIA lawsuits, lawyers for Judicial Watch have informed attorneys for the Obama administration that Hillary Clinton’s and any other secret accounts used by State employees should be secured, recovered, and searched.

“Judicial Watch has launched a full-scale investigation into the truth about Hillary Clinton setting up a secret email system to conceal documents and avoid disclosure under the law,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “Americans cannot wait for Congress to figure out what is going on. And the Obama administration is in cover-up mode. As with Benghazi and the IRS scandals, there is no doubt that Judicial Watch’s litigation forced the disclosure Hillary Clinton’s email cache, and we will continue to pursue the case.”

For Democrats, corrupt lying Government IS good government as long as the Democrats are in charge. It’s their one and only true core value.

Hillary’s email is no longer connected to a Tortola, V.I. company street address. Her account was set up 01/13/09, a week before Zero took over, and the original Tortola address was eliminated in the last week.

IMO this is going to be the gift that keeps on giving. She will pull a Nixon and then its drip, drip, drip. Overwhelming her campaign plans.

I believe the Democrat party wants to run Liz Warren but you can also look at whats his name Omalley former Gov of MD and Jim Webb former senator from VA.

The millenials love Liz and Bernie. Hillary not so much.

I respect Larry Clayman. Judicial Watch does great work and are an organization that deserves our support. A lot of this would not have come out without their dilligence.

The AP also filed FOIA lawsuits today against the State Dept. for Hillary’s emails.

Go Cloward-Piven on her ample rear end.

Here is the Judicial Watch staff and directors list.

Klayman has not been listed on it for some time.

Larry is his own worst enemy and Fitton seems to be doing better now that Larry is no longer their public face.

As he helped found it, I don’t know if he still has any involvement since the big series of suits against him by various parties.

Drudge is headlining this. I think Huma’s emails would unravel the entire administration, because we’d find out WHO RUNS IT.
