More Than 1,200 Hillary Emails Now Deemed as Classified


The mass amount of emails that need to be released to the public under the Freedom of Information Act, has had the State Department frantic in attempting to keep up with the court-mandated schedule.   The goal had been to release 43,000 pages by the end of 2015.

While the State Department is nearing the end of its releases, the agency overall has struggled to keep up with a court-mandated monthly schedule to post the roughly 54,000 pages of messages Clinton turned over to her former agency last November. As a result of a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit, a judge ordered periodic releases at the end of each month beginning in June and ending next month. The agency has had to review the documents for sensitive material and has redacted portions of many of the messages.

The department said it will “be adding this missing data in January 2016 and expect to be done by the end of the month.”

One can only hope that justice will be served and Hillary will be treated as any other United States citizen that has broken the law.

The latest hiccup adds to the drama that has surrounded Clinton’s exclusive use of private email accounts and a private server during her four years at State.

While the temperature has lowered on the scandal, the Democratic front-runner’s headaches are far from over. There’s an ongoing FBI investigation into her email set-up, courts are still ordering the release of emails from her top aides, and a number of congressional probes are percolating.
