After learning that the president used email with a pseudonym – apparently to try to protect his identity – Abedin asked her interrogators if she could keep a copy of the email.

As the U.S. presidential candidate Hillary Clinton continues to face the heat over using her private email server for official communications, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has released another set of papers, likely to kick up a fresh controversy.
Not only was Obama lying about not knowing of Clinton’s server, he supposedly actively partook in being connected to it. If her email was not on an approved list, which was managed by the President’s staff, the White House server would reject it.
Notes from Huma Abedin’s interview says Clinton “could not use a computer”.
In 2014, Clinton’s office released some 55,000 emails to State Department investigators, while admitting that she erased another 33,000.
According to the Washington Examiner, the comment came just days after Clinton handed over 30,000 of her work-related emails to the State Department.
The documents, released on Friday and cited by ABC News, show that when Clinton was on a trip to Russian Federation while serving as USA secretary of state, her aide brought a classified briefing book into the hotel suite. A worker later said the term was a joke.
“It’s no wonder that at least five individuals tied to the email scandal, including Clinton’s top State Department aide and attorney Cheryl Mills, secured immunity deals from the Obama Justice Department to avoid prosecution”. She acknowledges that the use of her a private email system was a mistake. Trump has built his “Crooked Hillary” line of insults off arguments stemming from her emails.
That investigation was sparked by revelations from the FBI’s first report on its investigation, as well as the summary of agents’ interview with Clinton herself, released earlier this month. In a deposition with the House Select Committee on Benghazi past year, Bentel, who retired in 2012, said that he did not know anything about Clinton’s server.

FBI Director James Comey said in July that his agents hadn’t found evidence to support any criminal charge or direct evidence that Clinton’s private server had been hacked.
