“But she need not blame House Republicans for having her own personal server, for exclusively using private e-mail, for telling us the Sydney Blumenthal e-mails were unsolicited and then we later find out they were not”.

“Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace asked for Gowdy’s reaction after playing a short clip of Clinton lambasting Republicans for playing “the same old partisan games” by politicizing her email scandal.
Rep. Trey Gowdy, chairman of the U.S. House Select Committee on Benghazi, described the likely outcome of his face-off with Clinton in October.
“Crossing my fingers Gowdy puts on his PROSECUTOR hat no matter WHEN this hearing takes place!” “I don’t read the statement that way, and I can’t read the statement that way because I know that to be false”. “Would they call in forensic experts to triple wash a server so they could get rid of bridesmaids’ emails or yoga practice emails?”
Clinton last week turned over the server to the FBI, but says it has been completely wiped of information after she had her staff separate private and State Department emails.
The FBI and two inspectors general are in charge of the email probe, he said and both are apolitical. “I won’t play politics with national security or dishonor the memory of those who we lost”. “Had she not had this email arrangement with herself, I would not be on your show this morning”. For telling us the public rec was complete and then we found 15 e-mails she never turned over to the State Department. So, we know for a fact, that she did not turn all over all records and all documents to the State Department.
Therefore, Gowdy predicted, “she’s going to be there a while”.
Gowdy insisted the committee’s investigation is to determine how four Americans died at the U.S. diplomatic compound in Libya and is not politically motivated. Gowdy said, “Well, I read that statement and if you read that statement, you’ll know why people hate lawyers as much as they do”.

Clinton, the front running Democratic presidential candidate, has said she had no knowledge of sending or receiving information marked as classified, that she has done nothing wrong and intends to cooperate with investigations.
