FEDERAL JUDGE TELLS STATE DEPARTMENT TO COUGH UP

By Bob Walsh

A federal judge has directed that the State Department MUST begin to produce emails from Hillary’s top aides in accordance with the FOIA request from the Republican National Committee.

U. S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson said that, since the number of emails in the case has shrunk from about 750,000 to about 76,000 that it was a manageable request. She ordered State to start cranking them out at the rate of at least 500 pages per month. She also directed that the RNC could prioritize what they wanted first. State had earlier asserted that complying with the FOIA request would be “overly burdensome.”

The State Department FOIA guy says the department has the ability to process about 21,000 pages per month total. There are currently a LOT of FOIA requests pending for Hillary’s emails and those of her top aides.
