Fitton: Hillary Clinton Used Blackberry Against Security Advice – Breitbart News
As the latest example of this, Judicial Watch submittednew evidenceto U.S. District Court Judge Emmet G. Sullivan showing that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton knowingly used an unsecure BlackBerry device despite being warned by security hawks against doing so.
Judicial Watch obtained the email record in a response to acourt orderfrom a May 5, 2015,lawsuit against the State Department (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of State(No. 1:15-cv-00684)) after it failed to respond to our March 18, 2015, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request seeking: All emails of official State Department business received or sent by former Deputy Chief of Staff Huma Abedin from January 1, 2009, through February 1, 2013, using a non-state.gov email address.
The new document brings theknown totalto date to at least 433 emails that were not part of the 55,000 pages of emails that Clinton turned over to the State Department. These records further appear to contradict statements by Clinton that, as far as she knew, all of her government emails were turned over to the State Department.
The email was sent to Susan Kennedy,presumablyformer Gov. Arnold Schwarzeneggers chief of staff. Kennedy wrote Clinton on March 7 2009: Just in case you are still allowed to carry your Blackberry, your friends are watching with great pride. Clinton responded on March 8, 2009:
Against the advice of the security hawks, I still do carry my berry but am prohibited from using it in my office, where I spend most of my time when Im not on a plane or in a no coverage country.
The email, uncovered by Judicial Watch and written by Clinton, demonstrates that she reviewed or was at least informed about a March 6, 2009,Information Memofrom Assistant Secretary of State for Diplomatic Security Eric J. Boswell to Clinton Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills in which he wrote that he cannot stress too strongly, however, that anyunclassified BlackBerry is highly vulnerablein any setting to remotely and covertly monitoring conversations, retrieving email, and exploiting calendars. [Emphasis added]
In a recent court filing pertaining to the pendingmotion to compelClinton to answer interrogatory questions she refused to answer under oath, Judicial Watch argues that interrogatory 14 is particularly important:
Interrogatory 14 seeks to uncover why Secretary Clinton continued using a personal BlackBerry to conduct State Department business after being advised of the risks in doing so. This interrogatory is pertinent because Secretary Clintons personal BlackBerry was an integral part of the operation of the clintonemail.com system, a subject squarely within the scope of discovery. It was how she accessed her email.Without her personal BlackBerry, there likely would have been no clintonemail.com system because the Secretary did not use a desktop or laptop and a State Department BlackBerry would have linked to an official state.gov email account.
Judicial Watch submitted the questions to her under acourt orderon August 19, 2016, in a separate lawsuit.
Clinton seemingly ignored the advice of security hawks and violated numerous laws related to the handling of classified material and government documents. The State Department sat on this document for 18 months. It is a smoking gun that shows why she must beheld accountable under criminal and civil law.
Clinton refused outright to answer questions about the creation of her email system; her decision to use the system despite warnings from State Department officials; and the basis for her claim that the State Department had 90-95% of her emails.
In herresponsessent to Judicial Watch and the court on October 13, 2016, Clinton refused to answer three questions and responded that she does not recall 20 times concerning her non-government clintonemail.com email system. She preceded her responses by eight general objections and two objections to definitions.The words object or objection appear 84 times throughout the 23-page document submitted to the court and Judicial Watch.
The Clinton responses to interrogatives were received in the Judicial Watch Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit before the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, which was first filed in September 2013 seeking records about the controversial employment status of Huma Abedin, former deputy chief of staff to Clinton (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of State(No. 1:13-cv-01363)). Thelawsuit was reopenedbecause of revelations about the clintonemail.com system.
