98. Note that she kept that same team which made these decisions

Wed Sep 6, 2017, 11:01 AM

Sep 2017

Not to mention work emails were NOT turned over at the end of her tenure in January 2013. In spring 2014, when the fact that she had not done so reached higher level State Department people, they had to "negotiate" with her to get those records. They did not get them through the informal request, so the State Department PUBLICLY asked all former SoS for their email. They then received them in December 2014.

Other than that, I do agree that the people around her let her down. However, I would suggest that as they fought the SD on technology, they did so because she wanted them to. In addition, I can not believe that Clinton, a lawyer with long Governmental experience did not - at minimum - separate work and personal - even if they came into the same account.

In addition, it is pretty clear that when the SD found there was a problem in 2014, Clinton did NOT push to quickly resolve it. This goes to transparency -- an issue she already had had problems with.
