Last week, former FBI director
James Comey brought the Hillary Clinton email scandal back to the front burner when he testified that then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch forced him to downplay the FBI’s criminal investigation and call it a “matter.” The charge is so serious even Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein is calling for a probe.
That’s hardly the only movement in the case.
Evidence continues to pile up of Clinton’s wrong-doing using an unsecured private email server as secretary of state....
...Judicial Watch Obtains Unreleased Clinton Emails, Finds More Wrongdoing
Even though Clinton lost the race, the scrutiny hasn’t ended. Judicial Watch filed a lawsuit to obtain copies of her emails. So far, the group has obtained
433 new emails that were not part of the 55,000 pages of emails she first turned over. She had claimed that she turned over all of them.
Judicial Watch says the new emails
contain classified information. The group also says that
neither the State Department
nor the FBI have conducted a full search for the emails.
The FBI admits that thousands of emails remain out there.
One batch of the new emails revealed that Clinton sent classified information to top officials at the Clinton Foundation, including its director Doug Band. They did not hold security clearances....
...Judicial Watch submitted new evidence to the court this week revealing that Clinton also used an unsecure Blackberry. She did so despite being warned.
She wrote in an email that she carried it, “against the advice of the security hawks.” ...
...The Russian Connection
In another email obtained by Judicial Watch, Abedin says she
“hooked up” people from the Russian American Foundation with
“the right people” at the State Department. She was responding to a request from the foundation’s vice president Rina Kirshner. Clinton Foundation donor Eddie Trump sent the request to Abedin. The foundation received
more than $260,000 in grants for “public diplomacy” from the State Department during Clinton’s tenure....
...Sen. Chuck Grassley (R., Iowa), chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, expressed his concern recently about how slow the State Department has been reviewing the email scandal.
In March, he sent a letter to the agency asking for an
update on Clinton’s security clearance. He found out that
Clinton and seven members of her former staff still have them. Yet they are
no longer at the agency. In order to
retain this status, they were labeled
“research assistants.”
Clinton recently called the probe into her email server “the biggest nothing-burger ever.”
In contrast, Judicial Watch refers to Clinton as a “serial violator of various laws.” As the
evidence continues to pile up,
one of them will prove to be right. Although Comey did not suggest charges, the new FBI director could.
