A federal judge has raised speculation that Hillary Rodham Clinton and her State Department “colluded” to keep her missing emails secret from the public and courts, an escalation of scrutiny into Obama-era scandal.
Senior District Court Judge Royce C. Lamberth in a new memo also called the Clinton email affair “one of the gravest modern offenses to government transparency.”
"Lamberth ruled:
… the Court ORDERS the parties to meet and confer to plan discovery into (a) whether Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email while Secretary of State was an intentional attempt to evade FOIA; (b) whether the State Department’s attempts to settle this case in late 2014 and early 2015 amounted to bad faith; and (c) whether State has adequately searched for records responsive to Judicial Watch’s requests.
Terming Clinton’s use of her private email system, “one of the gravest modern offenses to government transparency,” Lamberth wrote in his MEMORANDUM OPINION:
… his [President Barack Obama’s] State and Justice Departments fell far short. So far short that the court questions, even now, whether they are acting in good faith. Did Hillary Clinton use her private email as Secretary of State to thwart this lofty goal [Obama announced standard for transparency]? Was the State Department’s attempt to settle this FOIA case in 2014 an effort to avoid searching – and disclosing the existence of – Clinton’s missing emails? And has State ever adequately searched for records in this case?

What's the judge's FReeper handle?
That’s why she was so confident before the election.
No kidding.
It was “for the children”.
The judge is suggesting it because that’s what they did.
Looks like we have at least one honest judge left.
Arrest the bitch and LOCK HER UP.
We have become a third world Country with no law and order. The communists Democrats own America and we will start down the road to ruin.
I sometimes think Senior District Court Judge Royce C. Lamberth is the only honest judge out there.
Collusion!
he better watch his back, front, sides, food, etc.... he’s going to be Seth Rich’d if he’s not careful.
NAH, JUDGE, COME ON.
What was your first clue?
Witch hunt
“Looks like we have at least one honest judge left.”
He must have a super-squeaky-clean background.
May God protect, strengthen and empower Judge Lamberth.
It’s not a matter of “good faith”
IT’S CRIMINAL CONSPIRACY.
THEY NEVER THOUGHT WE WOULD FIND OUT WHEN SHE BECAME PRESIDENT
The Democrat Party thinks they govern the US.
Send a bill to the Democrat Party to pay the wages of Democrat government employees.
If they work for the Democrat Party, then the Democrat Party can pay them.
And she was going to run the village.
Thanks Oldeconomybuyer. I hope the judge has a car with remote start on the keyring. Arkancide possibility.
[ Judge suggests Justice, State colluded to protect Hillary Clinton in email scandal ]
A bunch of idiot liberals at Yahoo like to proclaim how Hillary has been “investigated” multiple times and “nobody found anything”.
They have to be the most blind idiots on the planet.
Yes, a bit of redundancy in there.
Send her up to Dannemora, New York as a seamstress, the convicts up there will screw anything.
Paging Captain Obvious.
