Not even the FBI accomplished that during Hillary’s disturbing email scandal


Judicial Watch’s director of investigations, Chris Farrell, says Hillary Clinton will be questioned under oath within the next 10 weeks about her use of an unsecure private email system to send sensitive government information.


Clinton submitted to a “voluntary interview” with the FBI during its investigation of her abuse of classified information. But it was not under oath and not recorded.



Farrell discussed Judicial Watch’s court victory to depose the former secretary of state – six years after it made the request – in a radio interview with Sebastian Gorka.


Judicial Watch’s investigation of Clinton’s handling of the Benghazi attack revealed the private email system.


That’s the “only reason anyone knows she had a private server,” Farrell said.


Clinton apparently was trying an “end run” around government requirements that government records be available to the public, he said.


“That was the goal,” said Farrell.


See his explanation:



The Clinton deposition was ordered by U.S. District Court Judge Royce Lamberth, who also ordered depositions of Clinton’s former chief of staff, Cheryl Mills, and two others.


Judicial Watch said the judge also approved a request to subpoena Google for relevant documents and records.


“Judicial Watch uncovered the Clinton email scandal and we’re pleased that the court authorized us to depose Mrs. Clinton directly on her email conduct and how it impacted the people’s ‘right to know’ under FOIA,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.


Lamberth two years ago ordered discovery into whether Clinton set up the private system to avoid Freedom of Information requests, whether the State Department’s plan to settle the case was in “bad faith” and whether there was an adequate search for Clinton’s information.


The judge called the email system “one of the gravest modern offenses to government transparency.”


Lamberth said: “Discovery up until this point has brought to light a noteworthy amount of relevant information, but Judicial Watch requests an additional round of discovery, and understandably so. With each passing round of discovery, the court is left with more questions than answers.”
