Judicial Watch: Obama Knew Of FOIA Request, Knew Clinton Was Using Private Servers
One America News Network ^ | UPDATED 6:44 AM PT — Friday, May 17, 2019 | OAN Newsroom

New evidence has suggested the Obama-era White House was more involved with Hillary Clinton’s email scandal than previously thought.

Judicial Watch obtained 44 pages of documents from the State Department this week, revealing White House staff were tracking a December 2012 FOIA request by the left-leaning group ‘Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington’ (CREW). According to those documents, the request raised the alarm among Obama White House staff and the damage control began.

“CREW had sent this request asking for records about any email accounts associated with Hillary Clinton. They had sent this request again in December of 2012. The White House contacts the State Department and says ‘we want to know what’s going on, how are you responding to this to this Freedom of Information Act request?’ So, there’s some very interesting dialogue back and forth among the State Department officials.”

–Bill Marshall, senior investigator – Judicial Watch

CREW’s request went ignored until months later in May of 2013. The State Department finally responded, saying there were no records matching their request. In a chain of emails sent between Cheryl Mills and Heather Samuelson, the Clinton aides referred to waiting on advice from the White House Counsel on how to proceed further.

IIRC, wasn’t the (WH) advice to come grab all the evidence and hide it ?

Of course. There was never any doubt.

Any thinking person could see it and figure it out.

Sure Obama knew! How could he not know? He sent and received emails to her. He was well aware.

If he knowingly sent emails to her private server then he MUST be investigated, indicted, imprisoned.

Obama was a unique combination of feckless, worthless, corrupt and misguided. Never anyone else like him in the presidency.

“How could he not know? He sent and received emails to her.”

And the fact that he used a pseudonym is evidence that he knew it was wrong.

I don’t know...Bill Clinton’s legacy gives Obama a decent run. He had a much better economy of course (inherited or not).

It was a bathroom server.

So, sometimes there are papers in there to read, and sometimes to ‘use.’

Obama knew literally everything. That’s why he needs to hang.

Hi.

Didn’t Hillary say to Podesta and the Mooks after her loss on election night that if anyone found out about this, they would all hang?
