‘WH called – have we received a FOIA request’ – State Department

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that it obtained 44 pages of records from the State Department through court-ordered discovery revealing that the Obama White House was tracking a December 2012 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request seeking records concerning then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of an unsecure, non-government email system. Months after the Obama White House involvement, the State Department responded to the requestor, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), falsely stating that no such records existed.

Judicial Watch’s discovery is centered upon whether Clinton intentionally attempted to evade the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) by using a non-government email system and whether the State Department acted in bad faith in processing Judicial Watch’s FOIA request for communications from Clinton’s office. U.S District Court Judge Royce Lamberth ordered Obama administration senior State Department officials, lawyers, and Clinton aides, as well as E.W. Priestap, to be deposed or answer written questions under oath. The court ruled that the Clinton email system was “one of the gravest modern offenses to government transparency.”

The State Department’s Office of Inspector General issued a report in January 2016 saying “At the time the request was received, dozens of senior officials throughout the Department, including members of Secretary Clinton’s immediate staff, exchanged emails with the Secretary using the personal accounts she used to conduct official business.” Also, the IG “found evidence that [Clinton Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills] was informed of the request at the time it was received …”

The State Department produced records in response to court-ordered document requests that detail Obama White House involvement in the Clinton email FOIA request.

No more guessing about it, 0bungstick knew about Hillary’s illegal, security-compromising, secrets-selling server in 2012!

Comey! Paging Cardinal Comey!
When did you first talk to the president about this?

Remember: Comey's ambush of @RealDonaldTrump with the Clinton-DNC dossier garbage was orchestrated during an Oval Office meeting with Barack Obama, Biden, Clapper, Brennan, and Rice.

But but the Kenyan in Chief only read about the Server well after the fact. This POS and the Reptilian Chief of Staff need to be taken down a peg. Won’t happen unless MAYBE during year one of PDJT second year.

I suspect Lamberth is getting tired of all this constant disregard for the law. It’s time he started issuing bench warrants for the arrest, trial and imprisonment of the perps starting with the Hilldebeest.

What would you expect from a crack smoking homo whose most notable presidential achievement was to get men in to women’s restrooms?

IMHO, U.S District Court Judge Royce Lamberth is earning himself a look at a Supreme Court seat. This judge has had a no nonsense approach to these proceedings.

The entire Obama eight years in office were an obstruction of justice.
