State Department Hands Over 925 ‘New’ Hillary Clinton Emails to Benghazi Panel



State Department Hands Over 925 ‘New’ Hillary Clinton Emails to Benghazi Panel


The State Department has indicated to the Congressional Investigation Committee on Benghazi that they screwed up, and found 925 emails relating to Benghazi and Libya that they had NOT sent before.


The State Department informed the House Select Committee on Benghazi on Friday that it would deliver to them approximately 925 new Hillary Clinton emails relating to Benghazi and Libya, among them a small number of Benghazi-related emails that it had missed.

These 925 new emails fall into three broad categories:

1. Benghazi-related emails that the State Department missed in its original review;

2. Hillary Clinton emails related to Libya which the State Department assessed not to be directly related to Benghazi. This makes up the vast majority of the 925 emails being released;

3. Benghazi-related emails that the State Department had previously assessed (PDF) to be of a “personal nature and unrelated to the former Secretary’s official capacity.”

The State Department believes that by producing emails related to Libya but not explicitly related to Benghazi, it is going above and beyond what it has been expressly been asked to provide to the committee.

The Benghazi Committee’s Republicans said that the admission was an indicator that the State Department “intends to foster a more cooperative relationship with the committee,” but that it had not received the new production of emails and could thus not comment on it.

“If indeed this is a sign the stonewalling and political protection effort that was previously being run by the Department is diminishing, the Committee welcomes it. The proof will be in the production,” said Republican spokesman Jamal Ware.

Hillary Clinton herself is expected to testify before the Benghazi committee on October 22, the official said. “To accommodate that, the Department undertook another review of the emails provided by former Secretary Clinton to provide such Libya-related emails, and to ensure all Benghazi-related materials have been provided to the Committee.”
