…with that breaking news overnight. The NYT’s revealing that Hillary Clinton used only a private email account, not a government account, as Secretary of State. Let’s go straight to John Karl at the White House. And John, the Clinton team said she preserved and turned over all emails required by law, but this report does raise questions about security and transparency.
It sure does, George, and it will also likely become a big issue in the upcoming presidential campaign.
This morning, Hillary Clinton is in the hot seat after bombshell revelations first reported by the NYT overnight. The Times reports Clinton exclusively used a personal email account to conduct government business as Secretary of State, noting she didn’t even have a government email address during her four-year
tenure1. The State Department officials confirmed this is true.
It is very unusual for a high-level official to
solely2 use a private email account to
transact3 government business.
I, Hillary Rodham Clinton…
That raises serious issues. For one, federal law requires that all official communications including email must be preserved by the government to allow future access for historians, journalists and for Congress. The Times reports the emails first came to light as result of a special Congressional committee investigating the 2012 attack on the US
consulate4 in Benghazi in Libya. Overnight, the State Department told ABC News Clinton did hand over tens of thousands of emails at their request late last year. But the Times reports Clinton’s
advisers5 reviewed those emails first, picking and choosing which ones to send. And legality isn’t the only issue. There’s also security. Was Clinton’s private email account encrypted against possible security
breaches6? Overnight, Jeb Bush tweeted “Transparency matters. Unclassified Hillary Clinton emails should be released.”
In response to the Times story, a Clinton spokesperson said that she abided by both the letter and spirit of the law, and George, while her emails were not preserved at the time by the government, the spokesperson said that Mrs. Clinton preserved her own emails and when asked, years after she left the State Department, she did turn over those emails.
Ok, meantime, also in Washington, John, of course, Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu speaking to Congress today that showdown with President Obama and ahead of that, both the president and the PM trying to say, hey, this is not personal, the US-Israel relationship is strong, we just disagree over this Iran nuclear deal.
This is gotten real hot, so both sides are trying to turn the temperature down, saying, look, Israel and the US remain the closest of allies, but George, as you know, there still is a huge fundamental disagreement between Bibi Netanyahu and the president on and around nuclear deal.
