Washington (AFP) – Personal and work-related emails that Hillary Clinton said had been deleted from her email server have been recovered by the FBI, US media reported.
Clinton, the frontrunner for the 2016 Democratic Party presidential nomination, has been dogged for months by revelations that she used a private email account and home server in lieu of the official government email system while she was secretary of state from 2009 to 2013.
Clinton said the server was wiped clean after aides determined which messages were personal and which were work-related and should be turned over to the State Department.
Once more this obliterates her claims:
In a recent court filing, the US Department of Justice said that Clinton had the right to delete messages from her personal e-mail account that she deemed non-work related while she was secretary of state.
But not the work-related emails.

Reminder:
Clinton certifies she has turned over work-related emails
When will we find out if she deleted any official emails which she did not turn over to the State Department? That will be something the left will…. be able to continue to ignore and lie about.
What work-related emails? And what is the source? An anonymous source, of course.
@Greg: Do you want to bet your annual income against mine that she deleted work emails?
@Greg:
The ones in the first sentence
Breaking bullshit from FOX News: FBI reportedly recovers deleted emails from Clinton server I lost count of the weasel-words by about 15 seconds into the video. I began counting with “reportedly” in the article title. Reportedly,according to our old standby, an anonymous source.
Bloomberg isn’t much better. They also began serving weasel words in the article title: FBI Said to Recover Personal E-Mails From Hillary Clinton Server.
“Said to.” Said to by who? Oh, “a person familiar with the investigation.” You know, somebody who knows something, who told somebody else.
I get so tired of this sort of crap being put forward as news. It will be bouncing all over the internet as factual information within the hour. People will be asserting there’s proof that Clinton deleted work-related email.
@Greg: The bet still stands Greg. Just because you do not like the way it is said does not prevent it from being the truth!
All I require is evidence. Thus far, none at all has been provided that backs up any accusation of wrongdoing.
I’m not even seeing evidence that government servers are more secure than the private server Clinton was using, which is a lot more disturbing than anything Clinton is known to have done.
@Greg: What about the bet? You are too ignorant to understand the evidence already presented!
@Randy, #8:
I’m informed enough to realize that no evidence of wrongdoing has been presented. This is why no one can explain what the evidence is when they’re challenged to do so. Evidently we’re not supposed to be smart enough to notice this minor detail.
@Greg: Greg, she hired a company to run and maintain her server who had no clearance. Security violation! She failed to protect secure information. Security Violation! She lied about the content of her emails under oath! This is just a few “wrong doings” that have been identified. She also shared secured information with friends and advisors who were not cleared. Who are you going to blame, Bush?
When an ignorant person can not understand facts, then they are stupid by definition.
So I guess they’ll find those 30 thousand Chelsea wedding and yoga emails now.
@Randy: Talking to the wall again I see.
@Greg:
“BS”? Did they or did they not recover deleted emails?
@Greg:
Riiight…but “may have”, “likely”, and “possibly” and perfectly acceptable as rock-solid evidence when discussing the timing of Syrian chemical weapons production capability….so long as it supports the leftist fantasy that Saddam didn’t have WMDs.
The FBI showing Hillary deleted work emails sure looks like evidence of Hillary’s obstruction of justice, on top of the national security violations.
Maybe they will use shots of her being frogmarched into federal prison in her orange jumpsuit on that stupid “Orange is the new Black” show….

There are reports of recovered email that various news outlets attribute either to one another, or to “unnamed sources familiar with the investigation.” That’s probably true, so far as it go. Routine deletion of email only removes it from the email index and removes protections that keep the hard drive sectors from being overwritten with other data. Data can be wiped more thoroughly using “shredding” software that immediately overwrites such sectors with random code, but readable traces may still be recovered. There are still no detailed public reports about any of this. I’ll wait for an official report before I draw any conclusions.
It’s interesting that the right gives the Bush administration a pass for the same thing on a far grander scale. The Bush administration routinely used Republican National Committee servers to conduct official White House business. Some 5 million such emails mysteriously vanished when they were sought in connection with Congressional investigations. There wasn’t much chance of recovery, either, because the server computers themselves also disappeared without a trace. Republicans seem to have had no problem with any of this. It hardly made the news, though it happened only 2 years before Clinton became Secretary of State.
@Pete, #14:
First there has to be a proven instance of wrongdoing. Reality television has very little to do with reality.
@Greg:
So, then it’s NOT BS then, is it?
They’re presenting factual information—a concept unfamiliar to those who rely exclusively on right-wing propaganda outlets for their news. I’m guessing you would react to any source that presented the same unacceptable information in a similar fashion. Wikipedia, for example, has summarized the controversy in an article that provides an extensive list of sources. I suspect you’ll discount them all, simply because they’ve been compiled on Wikipedia.
@Greg: Media Matters’ sole reason for being is to attack conservative points of view (the fact that they keep their tax exempt status is a tribute to the corruption of the IRS under this administration). Salon is merely another in a long line of liberally biased outlets which promote left wing interests while attacking conservatives.
Meanwhile, you will refute information about Hillary’s emails that comes from numerous independent sources, including the FBI…. simply because you do not want to believe the facts.
However, about your standard of judgement that unless charges are brought, the accused is innocent… about those accusations against Bush… ???
@Bill, #19:
What facts? Would you care to list them, along with the evidence that proves them to be true? I haven’t seen anyone do that yet.
As I’ve pointed out before, the established facts are presently so minimal that you could write them down on the back of a postage stamp and have room left over for a short grocery list. The “independent sources” are most often anonymous. Nearly all of what they have said is vague, open to interpretation, or directly disputed. There’s nothing there but an assertion of wrongdoing, with no evidence backing it up.
@Greg: Well, Greg, it just got a little more difficult to be delusional.

But, I know you are up to the challenge.
@Bill, #21:
The first two sentences are confusing, perhaps deliberately:
It doesn’t actually say that all emails were not turned over to authorities investigating Hillary Clinton’s use of a private server.
What it says is that two days after it was reported that this had been done, it was realized that there were a small number of emails that might be relevant to a second group of investigators that had not originally received copies: namely, a select Congressional committee looking into Benghazi. So, they were sent.
The writer has conflated the two groups, making it sound as though all emails hadn’t been sent to the people investigating the server issue as was claimed. That gets him a story. Perhaps I should give him the benefit of the doubt and just assume that he can’t write worth a damn.
@Greg: Well, I gotta hand it to you… you ARE still trying.
Yes, the State Department continues to stonewall and delay. This has been a large part of the problem with the Benghazi investigation from the beginning. But, here is the issue: these are all Hillary emails and Hillary never provided them, as she SWORE under penalty of PERJURY that she had.
@Greg: If you are so sure you are right Greg, then take up my bet. I could use a few extra dollars to better support local vet organizations. It would also benefit you because you will not be able to buy those psychedelic drugs you use when posting on FA!
