Emails also show Abedin
providing government plane and hotel reservations to Chelsea Clinton for
trip to Germany while employed at Clinton Foundation
Abedin tells Band that she
has ‘hooked up’ people from the Russian American Foundation with ‘the
right people’ at the State Department
Judicial Watch today released
2,078 pages
of documents revealing more instances of former Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton sending and receiving classified information via an
unsecured email server. They also show Clinton’s daughter Chelsea and
others involved with the Clinton Foundation receiving special favors
from Huma Abedin, the former secretary’s deputy chief of staff.
The records were obtained in response to a
court order from a May 5, 2015,
lawsuit filed against the State Department (
Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of State (No.
1:15-cv-00684))
after it 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.”
The new documents included
115 Clinton email exchanges not previously turned over to the State Department, bringing the
known total
to date to at least 432 emails that were not part of the 55,000 pages
of emails that Clinton turned over to the State Department. These
records further appear to contradict statements by Clinton that, “
as far as she knew,” all of her government emails were turned over to the State Department.
