Hillary Clinton just raised a record amount of campaign cash
Under questioning from host Joe Scarborough and co-host Mika Brzezinski, Axelrod said if only he had known about Clinton’s private email address he would have “asked a few questions”.
Ms Clinton has kept up an intensive national fundraising schedule since she launched her presidential bid in April, holding dozens of fund-raising events, often at the homes of wealthy donors.

The latest release of Hillary Clinton emails is quite a nothingburger – * a href=”http://foia.state.gov/search/results.aspx?searchText=*&beginDate=&endDate=&publishedBeginDate=20150629&publishedEndDate=20150630&caseNumber=%27″ target=”_blank” *pages upon pages full of lots of mundane details but no incriminating evidence of a coverup in Benghazi or overarching narrative of Clinton’s time as secretary of state.
The fact that they would play a clip of Hillary Clinton pretending she wants to be transparent when she is anything but, coupled with their “nothing to see here” commentary, is a particularly egregious display of pro-Hillary bias.
Some of the emails also have mention about India, but these are mostly related to her India travel in 2009.
Clinton wonders if she and Obama should be more like Henry Kissinger and Richard Nixon.
Informal adviser Blumenthal showed concern in an email that the ex- first lady would be compared unfavorably to Obama as a public speaker. Clinton repeatedly refers to someone named Santa in her emails.
“I’ve done it twice now”, Clinton said. “This is the second time this has happened”.
Blumenthal last month said he wrote to Clinton only as a friend and a private citizen. But, did it not happen or did I not go? “What’s up???” she asked. “And that is why gay rights are human rights, and human rights are gay rights”.
Another showed that Clinton had difficulty working the fax machine in her office.
Abedin replied, “Just pick up phone and hang it up”.
Perhaps the most mundane email was sent on September 30, 2009, when Clinton sent an email asking for an aide to bring her some iced tea. “So Huma is coming to print for me”, Clinton wrote in one.
The goal is for the department to publicly unveil 55,000 pages of her emails by Jan 29, 2016 – just three days before Iowa caucus-goers will cast the first votes in the Democratic primary contest.
