The State Department released a new batch of Hillary Clinton’s emails Friday. There will be one final release Monday, just a day before the Super Tuesday primaries.

McClatchy reports the Friday release of 881 emails brings the total number of classified emails released so far to 1,818. Of those, 22 were deemed to be “top secret” and will not be released in any form. A similar number of emails were judged to be secret and the remainder were at the lowest level of classification: confidential. Of the emails released Friday, 88 were deemed to be classified at the confidential level.

In a related development, a judge ruled Tuesday that Clinton’s former aides at the State Department could be questioned under oath about apparent attempts to skirt the FOIA laws covering her work email. Among the people Judicial Watch hopes to question: Hillary’s private IT specialist Bryan Pagliano, her former Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills, her lawyer David Kendall and her aide Huma Abedin.

What if Clinton's indicted?

While the FBI has been especially tight-lipped about the scope and focus of its investigation into Clinton's emails, the bureau recently acknowledged the probe has a "law enforcement" component, apparently repudiating Clinton's long-standing argument that it is nothing more than a routine "security review."

 

Michael Mukasey, former attorney general under President George W. Bush, said there's no such thing as an FBI "security review."

 

"That designation is unknown to anybody," Mukasey told the Washington Examiner. "The FBI doesn't conduct security reviews. They conduct investigations. They investigate possible crimes."

Huma Abedin might be the undoing of Hillary Clinton in the end

Huma Abedin is a name long familiar to regular readers here and politically active folks across the nation. Few people have enjoyed the level of trust and insider status in Clinton World as Abedin. Those connections appear to have paid off handsomely for Huma as she landed multiple, lucrative jobs inside the government and in the private sector while Clinton’s career progressed. She also seems to have gotten very “lucky” when an embezzlement charge leveled against her by the Inspector General of the State Department was jettisoned without comment by Barack Obama’s Attorney General.

 

But now that close relationship may be coming back to bite her. Over at Bloomberg, Ben Brody breaks down the next phase of the investigations which CNN alluded to above. There’s the potential for much more discovery, and it will largely focus on a handful of top tier aides including Abedin.

 

 

 

Using federal disclosure laws and the power of congressional inquiry, her critics are setting sights on aides like Abedin and onetime chief of staff Cheryl Mills, who have worked for Clinton for years and now serve in key roles, and even daughter Chelsea Clinton. The focus may lead to evidence becoming public as the presidential race heats up, potentially landing the parties in court or stoking congressional probes, the critics say.

You almost have to feel bad for Huma Abedin at this point. She could have bailed out on all of this and just gone home to be with her family. But then she’d be stuck in the house all day with… Anthony Weiner.
