Hillary Clinton used her role as secretary of state to work as Secretary for the Clinton Foundation, utilizing State Department staff for foundation purposes and bringing foundation staff dangerously close to State Department business, new documents released on Tuesday show.

The nearly 300 pages of internal State Department documents, released Tuesday by Judicial Watch, reveal that within two days of the terrorist attacks on Benghazi, Mohamed Yusuf al-Magariaf, president of Libya’s National Congress, requested to participate in a Clinton Global Initiative function in order to meet Bill Clinton.

“Dr. Almagariaf will be addressing the United Nations this September in New York as the Libyan Head of State, and he expressed a wish to meet President Clinton and to participate at the Clinton Global Initiative meeting for New York as well,” said an e-mail sent to Clinton Foundation director of foreign policy, Amitabh Desal, as the ruins of Benghazi still smoldered.

Within a matter of hours, Dasai emailed Cheryl Mills, Clinton’s chief of staff, to request such a meeting. “Would [the U.S. government] have concerns about Libyan President being invited to [Clinton Global Initiative]? Odd timing, I know.”

Mills responded quickly: “We would not have issues.”

A few days later, Desai once again emailed Mills requesting a personal meeting between the Libyan president and Bill Clinton, referred to by his initials, WJC. “Would you recommend accepting or declining the WJC meeting request?” the email read.

But there’s more. An email chain from August 2009 including Clinton’s then-Chief of Staff, Huma Abedin, Mills, and then-Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Jake Sullivan, reveals further collaboration between State Department and Clinton Foundation staff on foundation business.

The chain shows the State Department requested from the Clinton Foundation a list of donors Clinton could thank at that year’s Clinton Global Initiative Closing Plenary. This begs the question why State Department resources — or taxpayers’ money, as it is also known — were spent in any way on a Clinton Foundation event.

Tuesday’s revelations join a mounting pile of evidence that suggests Clinton approached her role as secretary of state as little more than an opportunity to earn money for her family’s foundation.

Indeed, while she served as secretary of state, her former-president husband gave more than 200 speeches — all approved by Hillary’s State Department as not being a conflict of interest — netting the foundation a cool $48 million.

Many of these Bill Clinton speaking engagements in front of foreign companies and governments just so happened to coincide with U.S. policy decisions beneficial to said foreign entities, including $500,000 for a Bill speech from a Russian investment bank with shares in oil company Uranium One — days after Hillary’s State Department approved a Russian majority stake in the company.

“These new State Department documents show Hillary Clinton and her State aides were involved in fundraising for the Clinton Foundation, said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton in an official statement. “It is also incredible that the Libyan president would call and meet Bill Clinton through the Clinton Foundation before meeting Hillary Clinton about Benghazi.”

“Secretary of State Hillary Clinton worked hand in glove with the Clinton Foundation on fundraising and foreign policy. Despite the law and her promises to the contrary, Hillary Clinton turned the State Department into the DC office of the Clinton Foundation.”
