WASHINGTON – Hillary Clinton permanently deleted all of the emails on her private server by wiping it clean, according to the committee investigating Benghazi.
Clinton has turned over more than 900 pages of emails to the House Select Committee on Benghazi, but it had requested many additional emails.
Instead, Chairman Trey Gowdy said in a statement Friday evening, not only did Clinton not turn over any new documents, she deleted her remaining emails.
“After seeking and receiving a two week extension from the Committee, Secretary Clinton failed to provide a single new document to the subpoena issued by the Committee and refused to provide her private server to the Inspector General for the State Department or any other independent arbiter for analysis,” Gowdy said.
Clinton kept all her official correspondence as Secretary of State, as well as her personal emails, on that server.
Clinton gave 55,000 emails from her private email account to the State Department in December. On March 10, Clinton announced she had deleted 30,000 emails she considered personal.
Now, they all have been deleted.
“Secretary Clinton unilaterally decided to wipe her server clean and permanently delete all emails from her personal server. While it is not clear precisely when Secretary Clinton decided to permanently delete all emails from her server, it appears she made the decision after October 28, 2014, when the Department of State for the first time asked the Secretary to return her public record to the Department,” Gowdy said.
“Not only was the Secretary the sole arbiter of what was a public record, she also summarily decided to delete all emails from her server ensuring no one could check behind her analysis in the public interest,” he added.
Clinton also refused Gowdy’s request to turn over her server to a third-party.
“In light of the Secretary’s unprecedented email arrangement with herself and her decision nearly two years after she left office to permanently delete all emails … we will work with the leadership of the House of Representatives as the Committee considers next steps,” said Gowdy.
The committee plans to have Clinton testify twice, once on her emails use at the State Department and again on her role in the Benghazi debacle.
Here is the full statement released just after 6:00 p.m. by select committee on Benghazi.
Statement Regarding Subpoena Compliance and Server Determination by Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
Washington, DC—Select Committee on Benghazi Chairman Trey Gowdy today issued the following statement regarding former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s response to the committee’s subpoena. She failed to produce a single new document and refused to relinquish her server to a neutral, detached third party for an independent review of potential public records:
“After seeking and receiving a two week extension from the Committee, Secretary Clinton failed to provide a single new document to the subpoena issued by the Committee and refused to provide her private server to the Inspector General for the State Department or any other independent arbiter for analysis.
“We learned today, from her attorney, Secretary Clinton unilaterally decided to wipe her server clean and permanently delete all emails from her personal server. While it is not clear precisely when Secretary Clinton decided to permanently delete all emails from her server, it appears she made the decision after October 28, 2014, when the Department of State for the first time asked the Secretary to return her public record to the Department.
“Not only was the Secretary the sole arbiter of what was a public record, she also summarily decided to delete all emails from her server ensuring no one could check behind her analysis in the public interest.”
“In light of the Secretary’s unprecedented email arrangement with herself and her decision nearly two years after she left office to permanently delete all emails and because the equities at stake involve not only those of the Select Committee and Congress more broadly, but also those of the American people and their right to the full record of her tenure as secretary of State, we will work with the leadership of the House of Representatives as the Committee considers next steps. But it is clear Congress will need to speak with the former Secretary about her email arrangement and the decision to permanently delete those emails.”

Gee, at least she and her old man didn’t blow up a federal building and pin it on militias to destroy evidence THIS time?! I know this joo-ess hag isn’t getting soft in her old age so I am sure she has much more in store regarding this.
If she didn’t do a DOD wipe, they are recoverable, In some cases even if it was done more than once, but they won,t waste time doing that, will they???
Well,I’m sure her private server has been overdue for agood cleaning. Oh, wait, you meant her computer…sorry.
She’s an obvious criminal, racking up scandals faster than I can count them, but she’s still going to run for president because voting doesn’t matter.
The entire country can want this woman hanged for her treason, and FOX news will announce her victory on election night, probably even before the Diebold machines work their magic.
Please tell me what choices we’ve been left with. I’d love to find a peaceful solution to this mess, but no one’s yet been able to propose anything realistic in that category.
These freaks love death and blood and they look forward to dyeing in some way that would be crazy or insane to us. So that time draws nearer.
THE ROPE…jolly roger
If it were anyone of “lesser” stature, this act would be considered a case of “obstruction of justice”, and there would be an arrest and jail time.
We need a Patriot song involving the justice that shall be meted out at the end of a rope. Any takers?… Paul Topete/ Pokerface, et al?
“Clinton Deleted All Emails”
Along with the kiddie porn & snuff videos.
You’re only being directed to shit that don’t matter like that’s the only crime the psychotic bitch is guilty of. Hillary’s got the edge of being more falsely transparent than most of them while maintain the quality of being the ugliest of all. Who would want to imitate that? “When my baby girl grows up I want her to be like Ellen? Yah, I want my children to grow up free rather than entitled. Parasites don’t survive long on unwilling hosts. They don’t give up easy either.
