It’s now been revealed that Hillary didn’t want anyone looking at her emails back when she was a senator too, using personal email back then to keep her emails out of the reach of the federal government:
WASHINGTON TIMES – Hillary Clinton used a personal email account for official business during her tenure in the U.S. Senate and carried the practice over once she was at the helm of the State Department, an aide to the presumptive Democratic nominee for president said in sworn testimony released Tuesday.
Cheryl Mills, Mrs. Clinton’s chief of staff during the White House hopeful’s four-year stint with the State Department, said her former boss relied on a personal email account provided by AT&T for about three months after being sworn in as secretary of state by President Obama in January 2009.
“Secretary Clinton continued a practice that she was using of [sic] her personal email,” Ms. Mills testified Friday, according to a transcript of her remarks released this week by Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group currently suing the State Dept. over Mrs. Clinton’s use of a nongovernmental email system while in office.
As revealed through Friday’s sworn testimony, however, Mrs. Clinton relied on a separate, nongovernmental account through as late as April 2009 before she abandoned her AT&T account and began communicating through the clintonemail.com account.
“So Secretary Clinton used — always used one email account when she was using an email account,” Ms. Mills testified. “So when she initially arrived [at the State Dept.] she was continuing to use the AT&T accounts, and then transitioned to the .Clinton email, or Clintonemail.com account. And during her tenure those were the two addresses, if you will, that she used.”
Hillary must’ve known that being head of the State Department, that AT&T wouldn’t have been able to protect her from the courts. So she took her personal email use to the next level, setting up her own email server so she had total control.
And she eventually used that control to delete emails she didn’t want Americans to see BEFORE turning them back over to the State Department.
In effect she was saying ‘trust me’, which sounds a lot like another candidate running for president.
Ugh.
