Judicial Watch Obtains New Huma Abedin Emails from Clintonemail.com Server
Contact: Jill Farrell, Judicial Watch, 202-646-5188
 
WASHINGTON, Sept.  21, 2015 /Standard Newswire/ -- Judicial Watch today released more than 50 pages of new emails from the clintonemail.com server account of Huma Abedin, a former top aide to Hillary Clinton during her tenure in the State Department. The emails discuss seemingly sensitive security and foreign affairs issues and raise questions about the handling of classified material during Hillary Clinton's tenure at the State Department. The documents were obtained as result of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit seeking Huma Abedin's government business emails conducted on non-state.gov email accounts (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of State (No. 1:15-cv-00684)). The emails were produced from a search of State Department records, as the agency continues to delay full production of records turned over by Ms. Abedin recently.
 
In 2012, then-Secretary of State Clinton traveled to Finland (June 27-28), Latvia (June 28), Russia (June 28-29), and Switzerland (June 29-30). On June 26, 2012, former Principal Deputy Executive Secretary Pamela Quanrud, writes to Abedin:
 
Huma - if I could lobby to get to Geneva on Friday night. We have a big data dump to get from beth jones and others there to prep for Saturday, and it would be a lot better for us to work through the night there (with access to classified) than be stuck in St. Pete with no classified at all.
 
Abedin responds from her huma@clintonemail.com account the next morning (June 27):
 
i had no idea about no comms
 
of course
 
we need secure
 
makes total sense
 
The emails show Abedin used the non-secure clintonemail.com server to discuss sensitive travel and operations security information that could have placed the personal security of Clinton and other government officials at risk, such as real-time location information while traveling abroad, and other hotel and travel arrangements.
 
On May 31, 2012, as Clinton and her State Department entourage are traveling in Scandinavia, Abedin writes to Clinton's then-Special Assistant Lona J. Valmoro:
 
Abedin to Valmoro: "Let me know when u r leaving."
 
Valmoro: "We are en route to airport now. Could we do during the 45 minute drive from Oslo airport to hotel. Everyone can dial into Ops and will have minis."
 
Abedin: "When? Who's in car with her?"
 
Valmoro: "Cheryl is with her now. If we are wheels up by 9:35 pm, land at 11:25, start call by 11:35 or 5:35 pm EDT?
 
Abedin: "[I] could barely hear [Hillary Clinton] with the background…."
 
On June 25, 2012, Abedin writes that she is willing to discuss travel details while on a "packed train." With the subject line "Could we get on the phone together at 11:30 – in advance of the [Russia] trip call?" Abedin writes to several people, including Quanrud:
 
I see call got moved to noon. We can talk right before then if you want. All shuttles were canceled this morning and I am sitting on a packed train so hard for me to talk but we can def do calls. [Emphasis added]
