Statement Regarding Subpoena Compliance and Server Determination by Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
March 27, 2015 Press Release Washington, DCSelect Committee on Benghazi Chairman Trey Gowdy today issued the following statement regarding former Secretary of State Hillary Clintons response to the committees subpoena. She failed to produce a single new document and refused to relinquish her server to a neutral, detached third party for an independent review of potential public records:
After seeking and receiving a two week extension from the Committee, Secretary Clinton failed to provide a single new document to the subpoena issued by the Committee and refused to provide her private server to the Inspector General for the State Department or any other independent arbiter for analysis.
We learned today, from her attorney, Secretary Clinton unilaterally decided to wipe her server clean and permanently delete all emails from her personal server. While it is not clear precisely when Secretary Clinton decided to permanently delete all emails from her server, it appears she made the decision after October 28, 2014, when the Department of State for the first time asked the Secretary to return her public record to the Department.
Not only was the Secretary the sole arbiter of what was a public record, she also summarily decided to delete all emails from her server ensuring no one could check behind her analysis in the public interest.
In light of the Secretarys unprecedented email arrangement with herself and her decision nearly two years after she left office to permanently delete all emails and because the equities at stake involve not only those of the Select Committee and Congress more broadly, but also those of the American people and their right to the full record of her tenure as secretary of State, we will work with the leadership of the House of Representatives as the Committee considers next steps. But it is clear Congress will need to speak with the former Secretary about her email arrangement and the decision to permanently delete those emails.
What do you bet she had somebody fold the pages so that they couldn't be machine-fed?
missing from this statement is whether Clinton broke the law ... or not. are the offenses jailable?
yeah and Lois Lerner is free to enjoy her well paid retirement...
shes not acting scared three quarters of the way... to death....for nohting...
All that is needed is ONE public record related email from her to anyone else which is NOT included in her 33,000 document dump in order to PROVE that she broke the law. Come on people ... surely she pissed ONE of you off at some time! Fork em over and PROVE she’s a criminal!
Gowdy shouldn't give up yet.
Absolutely.
It’s referral time at the O.K. Corral.
This woman is essentially a crime figure. She does whatever she pleases whenever she pleases. To hell with the laws the rest of the government or even us peons have to observe.
She deserves to go down for this.
Thanks for posting that.
Squeeze Mills until she pops like a zit.
Satans’prom queen! LMAO.
There is very specific law siting the destruction of those records as being highly illegal. So now it is not just the concealed server that was illegal, but the destruction of records. Only we all know that democrats are above the law.
This criminal freak, her criminal husband and her criminal daughter tell law-abiding Americans to kiss their a**es as they count their $2,000,000,000+ in their “foundation”. Criminals...freaks...LIBs.
I hate seeing my tax dollars wasted. But if this puts the criminal scumbag in jail, I will consider it money well spent.
Are you sure? A previous poster mentioned something about a large jockstrap.
So, when dies Hillary’s Secret Service Detail Arrest her for Treason?
Goudy needs to bring them in front of the committee, under oath, and find out who told them what to do and what the result of their work should produce. Then work his way up the chain of command, filling the jail up on the way.
Like all of these committees, nothing effective will take place. It is all a dog and pony show.

She’ll get away with it too. The MSM and Dems are chortling over this. She’ll get away with it in the same way that Obama gets away with his non-stop lies. The MSM refuses to make an issue of it. Conservatives here and elsewhere will foment about this — all to no avail.
