Hillary Clinton lost her appeal, order stands to testify on private server and Benghazi emails
[American Thinker] Amid the chaos and anarchy across blue-city America that exclusively possessed public attention for the last couple of weeks, it was not hard to miss any other bit of news — especially if that news has not appeared or been even briefly mentioned by any major mainstream media outlet. Take for example the news of Hillary Clinton, who lost her appeal in the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit on June 2, where she tried to avoid testifying under oath about her emails and the Benghazi case.

The hearing in the D.C. Circuit came in the case Judicial Watch v. Clinton, a public records case involving a request for State Department documents and communication about the 2012 terror attack at the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya. U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other Americans were killed in the attack.

The case also involves Clinton's use of a private email server as secretary of state. Judicial Watch, a conservative activist watchdog group that files Freedom of Information Act lawsuits to investigate claimed misconduct by government officials, uncovered another 756 pages of emails the FBI was able to retrieve that were part of Hillary Clinton's unsecured server revealing communications between some prominent Washington figures and classified emails sent by former prime minister of the United Kingdom Tony Blair. The emails were part of the batch "Clinton tried to delete or destroy," Judicial Watch stated in its press release. It showed that Clinton had asked Blair to continue using her private email after her confirmation and also revealed that Blair was sending classified information on her unsecured server. Clinton had been "extremely careless" in her handling of classified information, as ex—FBI director James Comey carefully and rather mildly concluded in July 2016, announcing there would be no charges against her. Judicial Watch did not drop the case.

On June 2, Clinton's lawyers challenged a March 2 order from U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth, who ordered Clinton to testify:

#1 The head of Judicial Watch had better double his security, and that of his family. Stay off aircraft, always travel in a t least 2 vehicles, and stay the hell awa from Forty Marcy Park.

#2 He'll probably be hit by a stray aircraft that just suddenly appeared and smashes into his house without anybody on board.

#8 Ask her the questions that you already have the answers. And then catch her in lie after lie.

I'd call that snark of the day but then I must ask, when did she ever have any?

#10 Any guess into how many times she will have to say that she has no clear recollection? Given that Cheryl Mills also has to testify under oath, this has the making of a world class Alzheimer’s convention.
