State releases 350 Clinton emails unearthed by FBI

Source: The Hill


By Katie Bo Williams - 11/03/16 03:38 PM EDT

The State Department on Thursday released 357 of the 15,000 Hillary Clinton emails uncovered by the FBI during its investigation into the former secretary of State’s personal email server.

Many of the documents — comprising about 1,250 pages — are “near duplicates” of documents Clinton provided to the State Department in 2014 and have already been made public, according to the agency.

A “near duplicate,” according to the agency, would include emails identical to previously released chains that were forwarded from Clinton to aides with the note, “Please print,” for example.

The newly released documents are records of emails sent or received by Clinton directly in her official capacity as secretary of State.

…but I fear it will spark a new round of "More Breaking News About Hillary's E-mails!!!" in the M$M, leading the headline-only readers to assume it's more incriminating evidence.

....Clinton deleted about 30,000 emails from the private server setup she used while serving as secretary of State, saying they were not work-related, before turning over thousands more to the government. But while examining her machines, the FBI recovered some additional emails that could be relevant to the FOIA lawsuit.

A preliminary review of the 15,000 emails revealed that about 60 percent were of a purely personal nature. Around 37 percent — or 5,600 documents — were deemed work-related, but of those, a “substantial number” were exact duplicates of the 30,000 emails that Clinton turned over to the agency in December 2014, according to State Department lawyers.

Those emails are excluded from each production and will not be re-released.

At the same time, anti-secrecy group WikiLeaks has published thousands of emails stolen from Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta’s personal account.

The occasional minor revelations are expected to continue up until the Nov. 8 election
