Scrubbing the Files at Clinton.com

Today we find out that the State Department Office Removed Benghazi Files After Congressional Subpoena.

State Department officials removed files from the secretary’s office related to the Benghazi attack in Libya and transferred them to another department after receiving a congressional subpoena last spring, delaying the release of the records to Congress for over a year.

Attorneys for the State Department said the electronic folders, which contain hundreds of documents related to the Benghazi attack and Libya, were belatedly rediscovered at the end of last year.

They said the files had been overlooked by State Department officials because the executive secretary’s office transferred them to another department and flagged them for archiving last April, shortly after receiving a subpoena from the House Select Committee on Benghazi.

"Overlooked". Yeah, I'll bet they were looked over several times before they were handed over.

The new source of documents includes electronic folders used by senior officials under Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. They were originally kept in the executive secretary’s office, which handles communication and coordination between the secretary of state’s office and other department bureaus.

The House Benghazi Committee requested documents from the secretary’s office in a subpoena filed in March 2015. Congressional investigators met with the head of the executive secretary’s office staff to discuss its records maintenance system and the scope of the subpoena last April. That same month, State Department officials sent the electronic folders to another bureau for archiving, and they were not searched in response to the request.

I'm beginning to think we should just fire them all and start over.

Just a reminder Firms that paid for Clinton speeches have US gov't interests. Which is why she has the money for this: Hillary PAC Spends $1 Million to ‘Correct’ Commenters on Reddit and Facebook. Roll Call announces Hillary Clinton Is Too Big to Fail. The Democratic Party Now Belongs to Hillary Clinton. She bought it fair and square. But Bernie Sanders equals Hillary Clinton's campaign fundraising: $182 million. Money well wasted.

It was an honest mistake, and quite likely correct: ABC Journalist Is Mistaken for a Hillary Supporter By ‘Bernie Bro’. Ugly Betty wants to snuggle Ugly Hillary: 'Ugly Betty' Star America Ferrera Wants to 'Snuggle in Onesies' with Hillary. Seriously. But is there room in the bed with Huma?

More of Camille Paglia's thoughts on Hillary: "My tentative theory is that Hillary may have sporadic flare-ups of goiter, worsened under stress."

"Coughing is a symptom. High collars mask a swollen throat. In serious cases, an operation may be necessary. Is this chronic thyroid condition disqualifying in a presidential candidate? Certainly not in my view, but I don’t like being lied to — by candidates, campaign staffs, or their media sycophants."

If you don't like being lied to, you don't like the Clintons.
