Clinton Reportedly Destroyed Her State Department Schedules Too
The State Department suspended its review in April to avoid interfering with the FBI’s inquiry.
“I spent eight years at the State Department and watched as four USA ambassadors and two secretaries of State shared their daily schedules with a variety of State Department employees and US officials”, said Richard Grenell, a former diplomat who served as a spokesman for the United States at the United Nations, the New York Post reported.
Washington watchdog group Judicial Watch had previously discovered that Clinton approved an “illegal job” for Huma Abedin affording the aide a large payout of tax dollars. For instance, their positions in any Clinton administration’s national security team could be jeopardized if they lose their security clearances.
“If there was a schedule that was created that was her Secretary of State daily schedule, and a copy of that was then put in the burn bag, that. that certainly happened on. on more than one occasion”, Abedin said during the meeting.
U.S. District Court Judge Richard J. Leon says he’s considering penalties for the agency if it fails to meet the next set of deadlines he orders.
Comey said in his announcement that Clinton and aides acted “extremely carelessly” in their handling of classified materials, but the investigation did not find enough evidence to suggest criminal charges.
The admission came as Abedin, wife of troubled NY politician Anthony Weiner, was being deposed in connection with a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit demanding Clinton’s records from her time in the Obama administration.
The FBI said that it examined all 30,000 emails during it’s probe.
The nation’s top law enforcement official later expressed regret that she had met with the former president, whose plane was about to depart Phoenix, even though she said it was social in nature and they did not discuss the email review.
Abedin said she was annoyed with the fact that she wasn’t getting Clinton’s messages but Clinton wasn’t fond of talking about the issue, according to Abedin.
