I found a series of emails from Judicial Watch that
exposes the workings of the Deep State that is working to thwart the promises
of President Donald Trump.
Per the emails, I have three cross posts:
1)
A video on the Comey memos.
2)
Thanks to FOIA and Law
suits, the revelation of more Crooked Hillary emails revealing classified
materials on her nefarious private email server which includes Huma Abedin and
the exposure actual Pay-To-Play deals with the Clinton Foundation.
3)
Ending with a Judicial
Watch Facebook video of On Watch with Chris Farrell exposing more
details of Crooked Hillary’s State Department silencing private security
contractors in relation to the Benghazi Islamic terrorist attack.
All these Judicial Watch information reporting relating to
Crooked Hillary shows good reasons for her to be locked up. ALSO, you should
realize if any DOJ courage exists to take on the Deep State protection of
Crooked Hillary, then the Obama Deep State “Resistance” means all clandestine
options will be made to protect Obama and his nefarious minions. Why? The
answer is obvious! If Crooked Hillary begins to go down for any of her crimes
including her husband, then Obama’s Deep State Resistance will be exposed.
Crooked Hillary will take the whole Manchurian Left down with her if she is
prosecuted. That would mean all things Barack Hussein Obama would tumble like a
reverse domino theory.

Judicial Watch: New
Clinton Emails Uncovered, Reveal Additional Mishandling of Classified
Information
Press Room
SEPTEMBER 14, 2017
Documents also
show more instances of pay to play with Clinton Foundation donors
Abedin’s
controversial mother advised Clinton speechwriter to exclude references to
‘democracy/elections/freedom’ and ‘empowerment of women’ for Clinton speech in
Saudi Arabia
(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch today
released 1,617 new pages of
documents from the U.S. Department of State revealing numerous additional
examples of classified information being transmitted through the unsecure,
non-state.gov account of Huma Abedin, former Secretary of State Hillary
Clinton’s deputy chief of staff, as well as many instances of Hillary Clinton
donors receiving special favors from the State Department.
The documents included 97 email
exchanges with Clinton not previously turned over to the State Department,
bringing the known total to date to at least 627 emails that were not part
of the 55,000 pages of emails that Clinton turned over, and further
contradicting a statement by Clinton that, “as far as she knew,” all of her
government emails had been turned over to department.
The emails are the 20th production of documents
obtained in response to a court order in a May 5,
2015, lawsuit Judicial Watch
filed against the State Department (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of
State (No. 1:15-cv-00684)). Judicial Watch sued after
State failed to respond to a March 18, 2015, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)
request seeking: “All emails of official State Department business received or
sent by former Deputy Chief of Staff Huma Abedin from January 1, 2009 through
February 1, 2013 using a non-‘state.gov’ email address.”
On September 11, 2009, the highly sensitive name and
email address of the person giving the classified Presidential Daily Brief was
included in an email forwarded to Abedin’s unsecure email account by State
Department official Dan Fogerty.
The State Department produced many more Clinton and Abedin
unsecured emails that were classified:
o
On March 8, 2009, Clinton
sent classified information using
her unsecure hdr22@clintonmail.com account.
She forwarded to former Senator George Mitchell an email from Tony Blair
relating to Palestine. The email had been sent to her at hr15@att.blackberry.net.
Clinton responded to Blair, saying she
had forwarded the email to Mitchell. A former Senate majority leader, Mitchell
was serving as Special Envoy for
Middle East Peace.
o
On April 16, 2009, Deputy
Assistant Secretary Jeffrey Feltman sent to Abedin’s unsecure email
account classified information about
an unknown subject.
o
On June 18, 2009, Abedin
sent classified information summarizing
a June 18, 2009, “Middle East Breakfast” meeting between various senators,
representatives and State Department officials, at which Deputy Secretary Jack
Lew and George Mitchell briefed the congressmen with “an update on our
discussions with the [Middle East] parties.”
o
On June 23, 2009, U.S.
diplomat Martin Indyk, who had his security clearance suspended in
2000 for “possible sloppiness” in the handling of classified information, sent
a memo containing classified information to
Abedin’s unsecure email account. The memo, written for Clinton, pertained
to Indyk’s discussions with top Israeli officials:
Could I ask you to review the memo
below that I wrote yesterday on my return from Israel? If you think it
worthwhile, I’d be very grateful if you showed it to HRC (I have already shared
it with Mitchell and Feltman). A confrontation with Bibi appears imminent.
I’ve never been one to shy away from that, as she may know. But it has to
be done carefully, and that doesn’t appear to be happening. And I’m
concerned that she will be tarred with the same brush if this leads to a bad
end. So I think she needs to make sure that the friction is
productive. I’ve made some suggestions at the end of the memo
o
On August 1, 2009, Abedin
forwarded classified information from
State Department official Richard Verma to her unsecure email account.
The email from Senator Russ Feingold was sent to Hillary Clinton regarding her
upcoming Africa trip.
o
On August 4, 2009,
Assistant Secretary Jeffrey Feltman sent classified information about
discussions with Kuwaiti officials to Abedin’s unsecure email account.
Feltman noted that the Kuwaitis felt a lunch they had with Obama was
“chilly.” The discussions concerned Guantanamo as well as Kuwait’s
treatment of detainees.
o
On Sept 20, 2009, Abedin
forwarded classified information to
her unsecure email account. The email was from State Department official Esther
Brimmer and concerned foreign leaders’ discussions regarding a UNESCO
leadership appointment.
o
On November 1, 2009, U.S.
Ambassador to the UAE Rick Olson sent classified information to
Abedin’s unsecure email account. The email shows that Olsen was traveling with Hillary in
the Middle East, and Abedin asked him to “work on a list of everything covered
in the mbz [presumably Mohammed bin Zayed bin Sultan Al-Nahyan, the Crown
Prince of Abu Dhabi] meeting for
Hillary.” Olson asks: “do you want it on this system (I can sanitize), or on
the other system.” She replies: “This system easier. We are staying without
class[ified] computers. Thx.”
o
On December 1, 2009, Abedin
sent classified information about
foreign military contributions to the Afghanistan war effort to her unsecure
email account. The email originated with State official Sean Misko who wrote to
Deputy Chief of Staff Jake Sullivan that he first “accidentally” sent it on the
“high side” (secure) but was resending.
o
On December 25, 2009,
Abedin sent to her unsecure email account classified information prepared
by Deputy U.S. Ambassador to Afghanistan Francis Ricciardone concerning the
Afghan elections.
o
On December 26, 2009, U.S. Ambassador
to Mexico Carlos Pascual sent a memo to Clinton, which was found on Abedin’s
unsecure email account. It contained extensive classified information involving
U.S. and Mexican counter-drug operations in Mexico.
o
On March 22, 2010, Abedin
forwarded to her unsecure email account classified information about
a telephone conversation between President Obama and Mexican President Felipe
Calderon.
o
On April 13, 2010, Abedin
forwarded to her unsecure email account classified information from
Ambassador Jeffrey Feltman regarding diplomatic discussions with the foreign
ministers of Algeria and Morocco.
o
On May 24, 2010, Abedin
forwarded to her unsecure email account classified information about
the minutes of a State Department senior staff meeting regarding State
Department officials’ meetings in Uganda.
o
Among Abedin’s unsecure email
records is a document that is simply titled “NOTE” with the date September 12,
2010. The contents are entirely redacted as classified.
o
On January 28, 2011, Abedin
sent Clinton an unsecure email containing classified information relating
to a briefing White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs gave.
o
On March 21, 2012, Clinton
received a memo from State Department officials Joseph Yun and Derek Mitchell
marked “Sensitive But Unclassified” and sent to Abedin’s unsecure email
account. It contained classified information about
elections in Burma.
o
Jake Sullivan emailed to
Hillary’s unsecure email account classified information in
which Sullivan discussed the content of conversations with UK Prime Minister
Gordon regarding “the situation” in Northern Ireland. The date of this email is
not included on the document.
o
On April 8, 2012, Abedin
sent classified information to
her unsecure email regarding a call sheet and an “Action Memo” for Clinton
relating to a call with Malawi President Joyce Banda. On April 9, 2012, Monica
Hanley again forwarded the classified information to Clinton’s unsecure email
account.
Other emails contain sensitive information that was sent via
Hillary Clinton’s unsecure email servers.
On August 18, 2009, confidential assistant Monica Hanley
provided Abedin with laptop and fob (a physical device that provides a login
code) logins and passwords to
log onto a laptop, as well as a secure State Department website at https://one.state.gov.
Included were a PIN number and instructions on how to access her email from the
secure State Department website. Abedin forwarded this information to her
unsecure account.
(The FBI interviewed Clinton’s confidential assistant Monica
Hanley in its probe of Clinton’s email practices, and State’s Diplomatic
Security staff reprimanded her after she
left classified material behind in a Moscow hotel room. Hanley was the
staffer tasked with finding
BlackBerry phones for Clinton to use.)
On August 19, 2009, Hanley asked Abedin to call her and
provide Abedin’s computer password so that
she could download a UN document for Cheryl Mills from Abedin’s computer.
Instead of calling Hanley, Abedin apparently provided the computer password in
her unsecure reply email, saying, “Its [redacted].”
On April 17, 2009, Clinton aide Lona Valmoro emailed
Clinton’s sensitive daily schedule for April
18 to various Clinton Foundation officials, including Doug Band, Terry Krinvic
and Justin Cooper. She also forwarded Clinton’s daily schedule for July 16
to numerous Clinton Foundation officials. She did the same thing on September 8,
2009. She did so again on January 10,
January 14 and April 11, 2010.
The details of Hillary’s arrival on
November 18, 2009, in war-torn Kabul, Afghanistan, for the inauguration of
President Karzai, were found on Abedin’s unsecure email account. Included were
precise times of landing at Kabul Airport, the occupants of her vehicle,
arrival and departure times at the U.S. Embassy in Kabul, and meeting times
with U.S. forces in Afghanistan.
The new documents show that Clinton donors frequently
requested and received special favors from the State Department that were
connected to the Clinton Foundation.
On July 14, 2009, Gordon Griffin, a XL Keystone lobbyist, sent an email to Clinton
Foundation executive Doug Band, asking if Band could get him into a Council on
Foreign Relations dinner at which Clinton was speaking. Band forwarded the
email to Abedin, saying, “Can u get him in?” Abedin replied: “Yes will get him
in.” Band was a top aide to President Bill Clinton and co-founder of Teneo. Griffin was a major
donor to Hillary Clinton’s Senate and presidential campaigns.
On July 16, 2009, Zachary Schwartz asked Band for help
getting visas to travel to Cuba for a film production crew from Shangri La
Entertainment. Band forwarded the request to
Abedin, telling her, “Please call zach asap on this. [Redacted.] Important.”
Abedin responded, “I’ll call zach when we land in India.” Abedin concludes with
“Enjoy. Cuba is complicated. Am sure you aren’t surprised to hear that.”
Schwartz worked for Steve Bing, a mega-donor to the
Clintons and owner of Shangri La Entertainment. Bing has reportedly donated $10-25 million to the Clinton
Foundation and paid Bill Clinton personally $2.5 million a year to be an
adviser to a green construction company Bing owned.
On September 11, 2009, Terrence Duffy, chairman of futures
brokerage firm CME Group, a donor to the Clinton Foundation, asked Clinton
to arrange “government appointments” for
him in Singapore and Hong Kong. Clinton, using her HDR22@clintonmail.com address,
forwarded the request to Abedin, “fyi.” Abedin responded to Duffy’s email,
saying she would “follow up” with Duffy’s secretary,
Joyce. Duffy gave $4,600 to Hillary’s 2008
presidential campaign; CME Group paid Hillary $225,000 for a speaking
fee and has donated between $5,001 and 10,000 to the
Clinton Foundation.
Abedin, using her huma@clintonmail.com address,
later told Joyce, “Would like to get some more information and details so we can try to help.” Further
along in the exchange, Joyce responds “We would also like some help in
arranging meetings with some key govt officials in both locations, such as the
Prime Minister of Singapore, and would appreciate any help you may be able to
provide.”
On September 29, 2009, Abedin followed up with Duffy, telling
him that “we are happy to assist with any
and all meetings” and that she had “discussed you and your trip with our
assistant secretary of state for east asia and pacific affairs,” suggesting
that Duffy write the assistant secretary, Kurt Campbell. Duffy replied, “Thank
you very much. I did connect with Kurt Campbell today.”
On May 5, 2010, major Clinton Global Initiative member, Clinton Foundation donor
and real estate developer Eddie Trump forwarded to “Dougie” Band a request for assistance from
Russian American Foundation Vice President Rina Kirshner to get the Russian
American Foundation involved in a State Department program. Band forwarded the
request to Abedin, saying, “Can we get this done/mtg set.” As Judicial Watch previously reported, the State
Department doled out more than $260,000 to the Russian American Foundation for
“public diplomacy.”
Major Clinton donor Bal Das, a New York financier who
reportedly raised $300,000 for Hillary’s
2008 presidential campaign, asked Abedin on November 11, 2009 if Hillary
Clinton could address the Japan Society at
its annual conference in 2010. Clinton did speak to the Japan
Society’s annual conference in 2011.
The emails also provide insight on the inner workings of the
Clinton State Department, in particular her engagement with her staff.
In a May 19, 2009, “Global Press Conference” memo, Clinton
was given in advance the “proposed questions” of four of
the seven foreign reporters. Examples include: “What is the Obama
administration’s view of Australian PM Rudd’s proposal to form an Asia-Pacific
Community” and “Why can’t American drones not find, detect and destroy the
insurgency supply line?”
In a document entitled “HRC Pakistan Notes” prepared
for Clinton by her staff, Clinton apparently had to be reminded about all her
trips to Pakistan and of “stories that you have told/remember.” Her reminder
instructions include: “You loved Faisal mosque, and it was especially
meaningful to have CVC [Chelsea] with you.” And: “Your first Pakistani friend
was in College. She introduced you to Pakistani food and clothes.” And: “You
have had lots of Pakistani and Pakistani American friends over the years. From
Chicago to California to Washington, DC, you have friends all over the country.
They know how much you love Pakistani food …”
On February 12, 2010, Case Button, a Clinton speechwriter,
asked Abedin if her mother, a professor at Dar
Al Hekma, a women’s university in Saudi Arabia where Clinton held a town hall
meeting, would be willing to give him advice on talking points he
was preparing for Clinton. Abedin responded, “Talk to my mom for sure. She will
have good points for you.” After reviewing Hillary’s draft remarks, Huma’s
mother, Saleha Abedin, (a controversial Islamist activist), offered some advice:
“Do not use the political terms such as ‘democracy/elections/freedom.’ Do not
use the term ‘empowerment of women’ instead say ‘enabling women’ Do not even
mention driving for women! Don’t sound sympathetic to ‘women’s plight’ or be
‘patronizing’ as other visitors have done and made the students extremely
annoyed. They rightly consider these as in-house issues …”
No references to these issues appear in Clinton’s speech.
Abedin’s involvement in a major appointment at the State
Department is controversial given that Abedin’s mother was an Islamist
activist. On July 24, 2009, Cheryl Mills forwarded to Abedin a CV for someone
being considered for the position of Special Envoy to the Organization of
Islamic Cooperation. It had been sent to Mills from State Department recruiter
Margaret Carpenter. Rather than forwarding the resume on to Clinton for her
approval, Abedin simply responds to Mills: “I’m a hundred percent fine with him.”
Abedin also offered her opinion to Clinton on administration
leaders: On January 21, 2011, while on a trip to Mexico, Abedin emailed Hillary
that “Biden is a disaster here.”
On February 20, 2012, Clinton expresses outrage over an
apparent wardrobe miscommunication for a meeting in Mexico and sent an email to Abedin with
the subject line “I’m venting.” Clinton admonished:
So, here I sit in the meeting
surrounded by ever other person dressed in a white shirt provided by the
Mexicans. Patricia is not wearing the exact style that all others are but her
own white shirt. But, since no one ever told me about this, and instead assumed
I didn’t need to know, I had no idea about any of this until I just walked into
the large meeting in front of the entire press corps and I’m wearing a green
top. So, what’s my answer when asked why I think I’m different than all my
colleagues and why I’m dissing our hosts?
I am sick of people deciding what I
should know rather than giving me the info so I can make a decision. This
really annoys me and I told Monica [Hanley] I just didn’t understand.
“The emails show ‘what happened’ was that Hillary Clinton
and Huma Abedin obviously violated laws about the handling of classified
information and turned the State Department into a pay for play tool for the
corrupt Clinton Foundation,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “The
clear and mounting evidence of pay for play and mishandling of classified
information warrant a serious criminal investigation by an independent Trump
Justice Department.”
