AP - Clinton failed to hand over key E-Mail

According to the Associated Press:

Former Secretary Hillary Clinton failed to turn over a copy of a key message involving problems caused by her use of a private homebrew email server, the State Department confirmed Thursday. The disclosure makes it unclear what other work-related emails may have been deleted by the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.

Ok, so already one message that was clearly work related was likely amongst the deleted 30,000+ "Personal" emails Clinton failed to turn over. This adds considerable doubt to her assertions that she surrendered ALL of the work related emails and will illustrate her lack of trustworthiness and integrity, Trump will use this to great effect in the general if she is awarded the nomination and isn't forced to retire from the race.

The email was included within messages exchanged Nov. 13, 2010, between Clinton and one of her closest aides, Deputy Chief of Staff Huma Abedin. At the time, emails sent from Clinton's BlackBerry device and routed through her private clintonemail.com server in the basement of her New York home were being blocked by the State Department's spam filter. A suggested remedy was for Clinton to obtain a state.gov email account.

"Let's get separate address or device but I don't want any risk of the personal being accessible," Clinton responded to Abedin.

Clinton never used a government account that was set up for her, instead continuing to rely on her private server until leaving office.

I guess if you are gonna try to destroy records you should make sure you get all other parties to do so as well, something her trusted aide failed to do, which is how it was discovered (This is not from the leaked files or recovered from Clinton's hard drive)

The email was not among the tens of thousands of emails Clinton turned over to the agency in response to public records lawsuits seeking copies of her official correspondence. Abedin, who also used a private account on Clinton's server, provided a copy from her own inbox after the State Department asked her to return any work-related emails. That copy of the email was publicly cited last month in a blistering audit by the State Department's inspector general that concluded Clinton and her team ignored clear internal guidance that her email setup violated federal standards and could have left sensitive material vulnerable to hackers.

"While this exchange was not part of the approximately 55,000 pages provided to the State Department by former Secretary Clinton, the exchange was included within the set of documents Ms. Abedin provided the department in response to our March 2015 request," State Department spokesman John Kirby told The Associated Press on Thursday.

The Sd's will be voting for Trump if they cast their ballot for Clinton at the convention.

There is just so much THERE there and every bit of it will be used against her successfully.

The people already don't trust her, this latest example proves they are right in not doing so. That doesn't sound like the makings of a "Strong Candidate" for the general.

If we end up with Trump and the Clintonistas try to lay a Trump Presidency on "Naderite's" and Bernie Bro's, etc it won't work this time. It will be because the DNC in it's arrogance thought it could be completely dismissive of a significant portion of it's base without repercussion...

cleverness does not assure intelligence. My cat can be clever, he's not that smart though, as countless episodes of him interrogating and then torturing his own tail prove.

the books from insiders who had enough cred to leak this damning information should be great (painful, deliciously) reading. So now MSM is going after both Trump and Clinton? Is this someone's great scheme to test the mettle of citizens?

I feel as if no one cares what she does. No one cares if the DNC undermined Sanders. No one cares that she lies and lies, and then lies to the public some more. Oops, she merely "misspoke", but now she's "evolved".

about T-rump 2 or 3 months ago. The MSM was doing anything to get him on their show...call-in interviews, softball questions, etc., but now it's attack T-rump and Hillarity's great she's really great all the time.

Faux fraudcasting is his only ally (and also the only ones reporting the $hill's troubles).

It's been over 200 days since Hellery's last press conference (since before the first debate) and I wouldn't look for one before the convention. Bernie had one last week.

Trump will use this to great effect in the general if she is awarded the nomination and isn't forced to retire from the race.

He will hammer her into the ground with this email non-indictment. Without the protection of the Democratic/DNC elites that she had in the primary, the mask will be ripped off for all to see. And she can't afford to lose any support with her already sky high unfavorables. I believe the Rethugs have been laying low with attacks on this subject, waiting to make sure the Dems are stupid enough to anoint her. At that point current polling will flip and then we will be looking at a President Trump. BERNIE OR BUST

We have had many reports of a similar nature from the "independent media" but this is the first one of this nature, and also of this tone, that has been released by the AP.

I wonder how the Clintonites over at GOS are gonna spin this.

"I used to vote Republican & Democrat, I also used to shit my pants. Eventually I got smart enough to stop doing both things." -Me

1. It's a non-issue
2. She is the most qualified person eva!
3. It's a right-wing smear
4. She was so busy doing good in the world, she must have forgotten
5. It's sexism (if she were a man, no one would be talking about this!)

Nah, they won't discuss this at all. If anyone brings it up, they must be for Trump, so they will use group bullying to silence them.

now picked up and reporting on this story. Drip, drip, drip and the "nothingburger" of a story keeps getting more attention. This is particularly bad for Hillary because it shows she knew what she was doing was, at the least, questionable. It also proves she didn't hand over all work related emails when she certified to the State Department, under oath, that she had. It also shows that her reasons for the private server were not one of convenience, but was a deliberate attempt to circumvent FOIA requests.

As I recall, it was also discovered that there were 15 emails from Sid Blumenthal that she failed to turn over. They were discovered because Blumenthal turned over all of his emails with Clinton to the Bengazi committee. The interesting thing about those emails that were not turned over were emails that shows Hillary was communicating back and forth with Blumenthal even though she publicly stated, and maybe even under oath, that she never sought information from him. She is trying to hide emails that contradict her previous statements.

You can be assured that as time goes on there will be more evidence of missing emails. I so hope that the FBI was able to resurrect her deleted emails from the hard drive, or obtained a complete copy from Platte River , the company that hosted her server after she left the State Department. I really don't see how she can walk away from this without an indictment.

I can't understand the Dems' thinking -- she lost in 2008, has record high unfavorables, loses to Trump in a lot of polls, and the FBI has TWO investigations focusing on her. And they think she's their best shot at the Presidency??? Mind boggling!

research it. All I could come up with regarding how she's better than Trump is that she has not mocked the disabled. But of course that's not policy that makes lives better.

I will research the sources, but recent interrogatories with the State Department as part of the FOIA brouhaha reveal the the DOS shut down its own spam and phishing filters to allow her Ladyship to receive cetera in emails from DOD to her very insecure server.
