Wikileaks: John Podesta asked about withholding email correspondence with Barack Obama from the Congress

October 14, 2016

 According to Wikileaks John Podesta asked Hillary Clinton’s lawyer, Cheryl Mills, if they should withhold email correspondence with Barack Obama from the Congress. Here is more:

In a March 4, 2015 email to Hillary Clinton’s lawyer Cheryl Mills, Clinton’s eventual campaign chairman John Podesta asks if they should withhold email exchanges between Clinton and President Obama that were sent over Clinton’s private server.

The day before Podesta sent his email to Mills, the House Benghazi Committee privately told Clinton to preserve and hand over all her emails. (The FBI report on Clinton’s emails notes on Page 18 that on March 3, 2015, the United States House Select Committee on Benghazi provided a letter to the law firm Williams & Connolly requesting the preservation and production of all documents and media related to the email addresses hdr22@clintonemail.com and hrcl7@clintonemail.com.)

The email from Podesta to Mills, titled “Special Category,” reads: “Think we should hold emails to and from potus? That’s the heart of his exec privilege. We could get them to ask for that. They may not care, but I(t) seems like they will.”

  Cheryl Mills was smart about it, she did not respond by email but the State Department did not turn these emails over to the Congress so it is pretty obvious what her answer was. It is unclear whether or not Barack Obama used Executive Privilege to stop the release of these emails but I believe if he did we would probably have heard about it by now–probably.

  Either way it is still interesting because we were told all Hillary Clinton’s work related emails were turned over and only her emails about yoga pants and wedding dresses were deleted, but if this was the case why would Barack Obama or John Podesta be worried about keeping these emails from the Congress? And why would Hillary Clinton be emailing the President about yoga pants and wedding dresses in the first place?

  It reminds me of that line from A Few Good Men, “is the colonel’s underwear a matter of national security?”

  None of this passes the common sense test…

    and so? Nothing to see…. move right along. A treasure trove is being dumped every day. Most of the media are not even covering it. Pravda, USA Now the media is officially an organ of the Clinton Criminal Network, reaching into the highest levels of government.

      Isn’t it funny how all these women just happen to be coming out against Donald Trump at the same time Wikileaks is dumping all this information. 😉

        I might add that what is a little war started IF it covers for Clinton, or I should say “The Clintons”? Obama is in a game that he is not qualified to play, where are the adults in this Administration? Oh, I forgot he padded his group with people that are not qualified, either…we are screwed unless we get someone that has some sense in there.

        There is no doubt what is going on here in my mind, this is all cover! Sadly, I don’t see anyone running this year who has any sense. 😦

    Let me add, we are now going to defcon warning with Russia. A war will start which insures Trump will enter the dustbin of history.

      This was reported on Boston radio once in the morning but nobody is talking about it, there is no doubt there is a coverup ongoing on this story.
