All - Please see below guidance regarding two recent reports from Bloomberg and the Washington Post. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks! AE *Friends & Allies Talking Points * *Guidance on Bloomberg Report that FBI Has Restored Clinton's Personal Emails * *September 24, 2015* Assuming the Bloomberg report is true, the reason the FBI may be able to recreate these emails is exactly because, as the tech company that maintained Hillary's server has said, the rumors that steps were taken to "wipe" the server's contents were never true. Even if FBI can indeed recreate her personal emails as Bloomberg reports, they are unlikely to be released publicly as they are not work-related. Remember, the Justice Department just said in court two weeks ago that they did not have a basis to seek access to her personal emails, since the regulations required that it be Hillary Clinton who separated her work emails and personal emails -- and she had no obligation to keep her personal ones. Hillary Clinton turned over her work-related emails. She directed her legal team to sort through her emails and provide any that might potentially be work-related; and, the State Department has already stated that more than 1200 emails based on their review were personal and would be returned to her as they need not have been given in the first place. We believe the Justice Department should be allowed to conduct its independent, security-related review process without interference. Chuck Grassley, who is attempting to compete with Trey Gowdy in making partisan attacks on Hillary's emails, should stop trying to interject himself into the process to score points. *GUIDANCE ON WASHINGTON POST STORY ON HOW STATE DEPT REQUESTED CLINTON'S EMAILS* Nothing in this story contradicts what Hillary Clinton has said. The Post is reporting on a verbal notification that the State Department made last year to Clinton's personal attorney, indicating that it might be requesting a copy of Hillary Clinton's emails from her time as Secretary. As Clinton has explained, the State Department later formalized that request in writing via a letter to all former Secretaries of State, asking them to provide any work-related correspondence they still had in their possession. Clinton complied with that request in full; indeed, she was the only Secretary of State to provide any emails. -- Adrienne K.
