FBI to start handing over deleted Clinton emails to State on Friday

FBI officials will hand over the first of "tens of thousands" of deleted emails from Hillary Clinton's private server on Friday to the State Department, government lawyers told a court Monday.

Judge Emmet Sullivan of U.S. District Court questioned State Department attorneys on why the agency would not receive the documents until several weeks after the Clinton email investigation had been closed.

"I don't understand the need for all this time," Sullivan said during a hearing Monday on whether Clinton should submit for a deposition in a Freedom of Information Act case.

Agency attorneys said the delay was due to the format of the emails, some of which have been deleted from the multiple servers Clinton used during her tenure.

Clinton's attorneys have argued that the depositions of her top aides, including Huma Abedin and Cheryl Mills, should be sufficient to address Judicial Watch's lingering questions.

But the legal team for the conservative group has pointed to gaps in the testimony given by members of Clinton's inner circle. None of the six aides who testified could explain how or why the email network was initially set up.

I was just watching the presser on the Baton Rouge police killings, and somebody from the FBI quoted the Pledge but omitted “under God.”

He put a stake in Hillary’s heart of Presidential ambition. She will not win. Joe Biden or a moderate Democrat Governor (few they be) could win. He did us a favor and will pay for it. It is not easy being a Pariah.

He did disavow his oath to uphold The Constitution and prosecute regardless of whom is the defendant. Perhaps by doing this he was defending the Constitution. If Hillary is elected The Constitution is null and void least it be taken back by patriots with rifles in their hands.

To be replaced by Sheriff David Clarke when Trump assumes the Presidency!

One heck of a good move, in my opinion. Of course the left will portray it as pandering and Sheriff Clarke as a sellout, Tom, Oreo, etc.
