State
Department officials will release 1,250 pages of Hillary Clinton's
deleted emails Thursday afternoon. The emails are mostly from between
'H' Hillary Clinton's email address and Huma Abedin.
Two emails sent
to Abedin for printing in August 2009 show the role played by Costa
Rican president Oscar Arias in the US-backed regime change operation
in Honduras.
The State Department just released the 18th batch of Clinton emails, and these ones were deleted: https://foia.state.gov/Search/Results.aspx?collection=Nov03_2016 …
8:18 AM - 4 Nov 2016
Another email from
Sidney Blumenthal features strategies and predictions on
China. “China
is not inherently a stable nation but is riven by profound
ethnic/language/regional divisions as well as yawning economic and
social inequalities growing greater by the day with a vast majority
of billions not sharing the benefits of its brand of turbo-charged,
despotic authoritarian Communist/capitalism,” Sid
Blumenthal wrote to Clinton in November 2009, while forwarding two
New York Times columns from “center-left” Paul Krugman and
“center-right” Niall Ferguson.
“China
is our captive. If it doesn't hold the debt its currency
wobbles,” Blumenthal
added, concluding that the possibility of China imploding would
be “advantageous
to consider in designing policy.”
State Dept ‘cleared’ reports on Clinton emails while in close touch with her team - #PodestaEmails
In
an email from April 2009, Cheryl Mills, Clinton's chief of
staff, alerts her
to a data breach at the National Archives where they can't account
for a 2 terabyte hard drive containing electronic records from the
Clinton administration which they had on January 30 but was missing
on March 24. "They
believe it was stolen. NARA has an identical copy of the drive,
which it is analyzing."
The
two terabytes was noted as probably containing a wide range of memos,
emails, and other electronic documents from the Clinton White House.
While the material was unclassified, except for three
documents "which
Bill Learly has examined and does not believe present any significant
risk."
Another email shows
Chelsea Clinton petitioned her mother to help her secure a visa for
an unnamed “friend” in Long in January 2012 to travel to US for a
consulting job.
"I
was actually on the phone with my friend... who is distraught about
his current visa conundrum (ie talking about something firmly in your
world!)," Chelsea
Clinton wrote to her mother, Huma Abedin and Cheryl Mills, two of
Hillary Clinton's closest aides.
She
said her friend had been rejected by the consulate due to
a "miscommunication," and
asked if any of the three could"help" him.

Another email shows
Hillary Clinton and a senior aide discussing how to send a secure
cell phone using FedEx or a personal courier and involves the scandal
plagued former Congressman Anthony Weiner.
“OK
I will (redacted) just fedex secure cell phone from dc. Anthony
leaving office to bring me to airport now so hopefully will make it
just in time,” Abedin
writes on August 2, 2010.
“Maybe
one of Anthony’s trusted staff could deliver secure phone?” Clinton
responds four hours later.
The
latest batch released on Thursday will be one of the final batches
before voters go the polls on Tuesday.
The
emails, some of which were previously released by the State
Department, and also by Wikileaks, were uncovered by the Federal
Bureau of Investigation’s year-long probe into the private server
of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton when she served as
Secretary of State. The emails were subsequently turned over to the
State Department.
The
release comes as a result of several Freedom of Information Act
lawsuits filed by the conservative legal watchdog group Judicial
Watch and VICE News journalist Jason Leopold, seeking information
about the former secretary of State's tenure in office.
An
additional 350 pages are scheduled to be released Friday.

Moments ago, after teasing its twitter followers to "stay tuned for our FBI-DoJ #PodestaEmail special circa 4pm EST" Wikileaks released what appears to be part 28 of its Podesta dump, dubbed the "DoJ/FBI/Huma special" and includes some 1,308 emails, bringing the total to 45,526 in total emails released.....

Special’: WikiLeaks releases 1000+ more Podesta emails

Another
1,100 or so emails from the account of Hillary Clinton’s campaign
chair John Podesta have been released by WikiLeaks – the second
such release in a day – after the State Department published 1,250
pages of Clinton’s emails.
The
28th batch of Podesta’s emails has been dubbed the “Department
of Justice/FBI/Huma [Abedin] special” by
WikiLeaks, referring to Clinton’s aide implicated in the FBI’s
most recent email probe.
Despite
the sensationalist headline, there doesn’t seem to be much in the
release related to Abedin, the DOJ or the FBI.
A
March 17, 2015 email
chain shows
the staff discussing Clinton’s use of personal email while at State
Department.
“…it was her practice, as well as ours, to conduct work on the .gov system,” argued senior aide Philippe Reines, in response to questions from the New York Times.
“They
are looking at HER email, not ours. They don't know what next step we
took,” Reines
wrote. “If
they've somehow seen some of the other 55k, we'd need to see each to
determine what they were.”
Following
a Bernie Sanders victory in the New Hampshire primary, the Clinton
staff scrambled to
find information on the Democratic “superdelegates.”

“Can
you get a breakdown of the superdelegates? Race/ gender etc,” wrote
Bill Clinton’s assistant Tina Flournoy on February 12, 2016. “And
some biographies of some of the superdelegates.”
“Just
so I'm clear – we're looking for a press strategy on this? Or a
strategy to retain our people?” Robby
Mook wrote back.
“Both,” Flournoy replied.
“Did somebody send this to HRC?” Abedin chimed in.
On August
7, 2015,
the Clinton staff exchanged several messages about a proposed press
statement regarding the email issue. After two drafts and some
tweaks, deputy communications director Kristina Schake writes that,
after consulting Podesta, “we
shouldn't put out the statement at this point because it is so late
in day on a Friday the press is bound to respond negatively and it
will defeat our purpose in framing this.”
Clinton
spokesman Brian Fallon sent
a note on
May 18, 2015 that “DOJ
just filed a briefing saying the gov't proposes releasing HRC's cache
of work-related emails in January 2016.”
“get out!???” replied Cheryl Mills, a senior Clinton aide.
Communications Director Jennifer Palmieri responded by arranging an early-morning phone call, to include “Huma and Podesta since this will be a thing tomorrow and she is in front of the press.”
