Hillary Clinton’s chief of staff privately told colleagues that President Barack Obama had falsely claimed he was unaware of Clinton’s use of a private email system while she was secretary of state, hacked emails reveal.
“We need to clean this up,” top Clinton aide Cheryl Mills told campaign chairman John Podesta in an email a month before Clinton’s campaign officially launched. She was responding to Obama’s claim that he found out about Clinton’s personal email address at “the same time everybody else learned it through news reports.”
“He has emails from her – they do not say state.gov,” Mills told Podesta.
The email came less than a week after the New York Times broke the story on Clinton’s use of a private email address to conduct official State Department business.
Subsequent interviews by the FBI in the course of its probe into Clinton’s email practices revealedthat Obama had emailed Clinton at her personal address using a pseudonym.
