House Benghazi Committee to Subpoena Clinton’s E-mail
by Andrew Johnson
March 4, 2015 2:42 PM

The House Select Committee on Benghazi will move to subpoena all e-mails pertaining to the 2012 attacks on an American diplomatic facility in Libya from Hillary Clinton’s personal e-mail account that she used for official business while at the State Department, according to the Washington Post. The investigative committee will also subpoena e-mails from State Department staffers’ personal accounts.

Clinton’s use of a personal e-mail address under the domain name clintonemail.com from a server in her New York home has raised concerns about security over confidential information, as well as transparency in terms of oversight. Some experts have argued that the deliberate practice of using exclusively a personal e-mail address rather than a government e-mail address is a clear violation of the Federal Records Act.

On Fox News Sunday earlier today, psuedo conservative commentator George Will had fierce words for both Clintons in the wake of this week’s revelations about Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server in her time as secretary of state.

“It’s axiomatic that the worst political scandals are those that reinforce a pre-existing, negative perception,” Will said. “The Clintons come trailing clouds of entitlement and concealment and legalistic, Jesuitical reasonings — the kind of people who could find a loophole in a stop sign.”

“Her obvious motive was to conceal. You conceal in order to control. And that’s what makes this literally, strictly speaking, Orwellian,” Will added, citing the famous “he who controls the past…” mantra of the totalitarian regime in Orwell’s novel 1984.

“This is a way of controlling what we will know about the history of our country. And it is deeply sinister.”
