Oh, look, here's 30 more emails - and they're about Benghazi

"Thorough process." Yeah, right.

Hillary Clinton said in March of last year that she “provided all my emails that could possibly be work-related” after a “thorough process” that involved BleachBit and a baseball bat.
As it turns out, Team Clinton took that “thorough process” at least as seriously as Bill respected his marital vows. Hillary turned all work-related emails over — except maybe for a few thousand here and another 30 related to Benghazi that the FBI discovered:

The State Department says about 30 emails that may be related to the 2012 attack on U.S. compounds in Benghazi, Libya, are among the thousands of Hillary Clinton emails recovered during the FBI’s recently closed investigation into her use of a private server.
Government lawyers told U.S. District Court Judge Amit P. Mehta Tuesday that an undetermined number of the emails among the 30 were not included in the 55,000 pages previously provided by Clinton. The State Department’s lawyer said it would need until the end of September to review the emails and redact potentially classified information before they are released.


Sensing that the State Department heel-dragging would probably just coincidentally last until after the November election, the judge is trying to speed things along:
Mehta questioned why it would take so long to release so few documents, and urged that the process be sped up. He ordered the department to report to him in a week with more details about why the review process would take a full month. 
It's good that she's getting damaged, but she's still fairly likely to win. The question is, how damaged would she have to be to be unable to jettison the Constitution and put all her troubles behind her once she had her grip on post-America's throat?  Memo to Judicial Watch: don't let up.

  3. This all lawyer stuff in our government of lawyers, not men. If they get their day in court we can find out maybe. Of course the prosecutorial types in Congress will want to establish another investigative committee.
