It looks like Trey Gowdy isn’t backing down from his pursuit of the emails that Hillary might have deleted from her private server in order to cover up incriminating evidence from all the scandals she’s mired in.
Congress has subpoenaed the emails of “close to a dozen” people who worked in the State Department for Hillary Clinton when she was secretary of state, the chairman of the U.S. House committee investigating the 2012 Benghazi attacks said on Thursday.
Representative Trey Gowdy, chairman of the Benghazi Select Committee, told Reuters these included aides to Clinton and perhaps “aides to aides.”
“We sent a subpoena to the State Department for emails from a number of individuals within the State Department, other than Secretary Clinton,” Gowdy, a Republican, said in a phone interview.

Gowdy spoke to Reuters on the same day Senator Charles Grassley sent letters to Secretary of State John Kerry and the State Department’s inspector general asking for information on the emails of Huma Abedin, who was a top aide to Clinton.
Grassley said he was probing Clinton’s use of a program that let some of Clinton’s allies, including Abedin, do private sector work while also working for the government.
Gowdy said he was not coordinating his probe with Grassley, and rejected any suggestion that the State Department might become overworked with requests for information about Clinton and her aides.
Of course this’ll be the new mantra – Hillary couldn’t possibly comply with the overly burdensome requests until after the 2016 election!
