Pompeo says he's working to release Clinton's State Department emails

Last edited Sat Oct 10, 2020, 12:14 AM - Edit history (1)

Source: Politico

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Friday vowed to track down and release information regarding tens of thousands of emails former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton sent and received over a private email server while in office, a day after President Donald Trump lambasted Pompeo for not having done so.

In an interview on Fox News, Pompeo laughed off Trump’s criticism from a day earlier, telling anchor Dana Perino that “we've got the emails, we're getting them out.” He added: “We'll get all of this information out so the American people can see it.”

Clinton’s private server has long been the target of conservatives, and Trump made it a central argument of his first presidential campaign against her, threatening to jail Clinton and reveling in chants of "lock her up" at campaign events.

Though an FBI investigation into Clinton’s email use resulted in no charges and an internal State Department investigation found last year that there was no widespread effort by her aides or other staffers to mishandle classified information, Trump and his allies have continued to relitigate the subject in the lead-up to November’s election.

That there were dome mysterious, great national security secrets that Hillary's sysadmin didn't protect carefully enough, so Russians might have hacked in, though there's no evidence anyone ever did.

So releasing the emails would show... what? That republicans never cared at all about keeping these national security secrets secret?

Or they're going to redact the precious secrets and release only the emails that were completely irrelevant?

That will inevitably be the result. They’ll time a dump before the election and throw in some hunter and Ukraine comments.

In their haste they’ll release emails that should not be released But who cares if it damages American interests. They have trump to save.

I don’t think it will work but regardless they will damage America.

Throw in a thousand or so emails on Chelsea's wedding plans, a couple hundred recipes and barbecue invitations...RSVP, of course.

The Repukes must be desperate for crud to spread over this campaign. They have lowered themselves into the slime more than usual and don't even understand they should be ashamed and embarrassed. It shows just how far Pompeo will go to please this bloomin' idiot in the oval. How pathetic can grown men be?

If I recall correctly, they found only three that were classified after the fact with the lowest level of “confidential.” What a waste of taxpayer money to send the FBI on another wild goose chase.

They've been sorted through by republicans since she announced she was running, but that's not their goal. They aren't intent on blockbuster scandals, they just want a photo-op of a two foot stack of papers claimed to be dangerous security leaks.

They'll ask "who really knows what's in here" then move on.

That's why he said it in a Fox News interview - it's how Trump toadies send messages to him that also look like backing him up in public.
