Clinton aides did not actually read the emails they reviewed . . . Hillary Clinton commissioned a review of the 62,320 messages in her account only after the department—spurred by the congressional investigation—asked her to do so. And this review did not involve opening and reading each email; instead, Clinton’s lawyers created a list of names and keywords related to her work and searched for those. Slightly more than half the total cache—31,830 emails—did not contain any of the search terms, according to Clinton’s staff, so they were deemed to be “private, personal records.” The Atlantic

What is it with the Left in the West that the default switch is set to appeasement? White House Dossier
