Conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch on Monday announced the State Department released a previously hidden email that shows the State Department was fully aware of Hillary Clinton’s private email account.
The email provided to Judicial Watch shows State Department officials not only knew about Hillary’s private email, they also used it to communicate with Hillary Clinton while she was the head of the Department of State.
A top State Department official admitted that Hillary didn’t want a lot of people to know about her private email and said she “guards it pretty closely.”
Recall it was Judicial Watch who blew the story wide open about Hillary Clinton’s private server back in 2015 and the watchdog group has been aggressively pursuing Hillary’s ‘lost’ emails ever since.

Judicial Watch announced today that the State Department provided a previously hidden email which shows that top State Department officials used and were aware of Hillary Clinton’s email account.
On December 24, 2010, Daniel Baer, an Obama State Department deputy assistant secretary of state, writes to Michael Posner, a then-assistant secretary of state about Clinton’s private email address:
Baer: “Be careful, you just gave the secretary’s personal email address to a bunch of folks …”
Posner answers: “Should I say don’t forward? Did not notice”
Baer responds: “Yeah-I just know that she guards it pretty closely”
Mr. Posner had forwarded Clinton’s email address, which was contained in an email sent to State Department senior leadership, about WikiLeaks.
It appears the State Department produced this email in 2016 in redacted form, blacking out Clinton’s personal email address and the discussion about Clinton’s wanting to keep her email address closely guarded.
