State Department Turns Over 1,600 'Newly-Discovered' Clinton Documents

The State Department turned over 1,600 pages of previously undisclosed documents related to Hillary Clinton and Libya to the House Benghazi committee on Friday, a month after it revealed the existence of the documents in an unrelated court case.

The House Select Committee on Benghazi announced it received the records on Friday, adding that the State Department has yet to fully comply with document requests the committee made nearly a year ago.

“Today the State Department turned over more than 1,600 pages of new documents related to former Secretary Clinton and Libya,” the committee said. “The State [Department] claimed in a January 8th court filing that it only recently discovered these new documents from the Office of the Secretary.”

In January, the State Department disclosed in a court filing that it had recently discovered “thousands” of new documents related to Clinton’s tenure and the Benghazi attack. The filing was in response to a lawsuit by the conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch, which has been seeking records from Clinton’s time at the State Department.

The documents may be released in response to public records requests, but the copies received by the Benghazi committee are not redacted.

The records come from the Office of the Secretary, which would likely include Clinton’s Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills, top aide Huma Abedin, and Clinton’s deputy chief of staff and scheduler.

"If any of the serfs, any of "We, the people" were ordered to turn over evidence by a court order, but "reviewed" the evidence and then only submitted what WE thought was "relevant", then destroyed the computer (or at least, did our best), THEN withheld, and/or resisted releasing OTHER evidence as ordered, well, WE would be looking for a lawyer and calling him from a jail cell.
SHE runs for President!!
You don't think there are two sets of laws??
In your face. With gall and audacity. But all the while, demanding respect for "law" and the Constitution.
They should catch on fire.
And some wonder why respect for law and authority is declining.
Not only running for PRESIDENT (!!), but has a very good shot at getting there.....which is truly unbelievable.
Keep cheering.

I don't get it. Not knowing where your official records are is just plain stupid. They're supposed to be cataloged and archived, not "just discovered."
