Remember Hillary’s excuse for why she went ahead and deleted more than 30,000 e-mails from her schlock, homebrew e-mail server?

However, news that FBI investigators recovered 30 Benghazi-related emails from Hillary Clinton’s wiped server is potentially too important not to comment on right away.
The US State Department earlier in the day announced the discovery of the e-Mails that were in addition to and not part of the 55,000 pages previously turned over by Mrs. Clinton.
But numerous document probes that threaten to deepen Clinton’s ethical woes are unlikely to turn up scathing evidence before November, giving the Democratic nominee an opportunity to wait out the controversies until after the election has been decided.
WASHINGTON-The State Department said Tuesday it has found approximately 30 emails from Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s account that could be related to the 2012 attacks on two USA government facilities in Benghazi, Libya.
The hearing was held of lawsuits filed by the conservative legal group Judicial Watch, which has pursued to government records involving the Democratic presidential nominee.
But 14,900 deleted emails were recovered by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and are in the hands of the State Department.
Clinton’s Republican rival, Donald Trump, pounced on the latest development regarding her emails.
Another asks Clinton if she believed she could “alter, destroy, disclose or use emails” related to official State Department business upon her leaving office.
“Using broad search terms, we have identified approximately 30 documents potentially responsive to a Benghazi-related request”, State Department spokesman John Kirby said in a statement, according to The Hill.
The campaign of Republican presidential hopeful Trump has accused Clinton of using a private server because she had something to hide.
The State Department has said it will need until the end of September to review the new emails before their release.
It was not immediately clear from the wording of Sullivan’s order whether Clinton must answer the questions before or after the November election.
Not yet being released are additional notes from interviews of Clinton aides or other investigative materials that were sent to Congress.

In addition, it’s possible that the recovered emails contain incriminating information about Clinton’s handling of Benghazi and/or the truthfulness of her public comments about the debacle. “So we’ve already released, I don’t know, 30,000 plus, so what’s a few more?” “Clinton swore before a federal court and told the American people she handed over all her work-related emails”.
