Former Hillary Clinton Chief of Staff Jake Sullivan Confesses, Says Both He and Hillary Used Private Emails to Conduct Government Business

Kirsters Baish| Jake Sullivan, former senior advisor to Hillary Clinton during her time as Secretary of State, has reportedly “admitted under oath that both he and Clinton used her unsecure non-government email system to conduct official State Department business,” according to the World Tribune.

The former aide, who also served as Hillary’s deputy chief of staff, disclosed to conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch in a court-ordered deposition that since it wasn’t part of his job, he wasn’t concerned about his boss’s use of a private email.

Sullivan stated, “Like Secretary Clinton has said herself, I wish she had used a State Department account. It wasn’t really part of my job to be thinking about Secretary Clinton’s emails so I don’t think I sort of fell down directly in my job, but do I wish I had thought of it during the time we were at State. Of course. I mean, what human being at this point wouldn’t have thought of that?”

transcript of the deposition was released by Judicial Watch on May 1.

The World Tribune reports:

In the questioning, Sullivan admitted that he had used his personal Gmail account at times for State Department business but denied that he had sent classified information to Clinton’s unsecured personal system.

After Judicial Watch pointed out that on January 26, 2010, Sullivan sent a classified email with the subject line “call sheet,” Sullivan testified: “When I sent this email, my best judgment was that none of the material in it was classified, and I felt comfortable sending the email on an unclassified system. The material has subsequently been upclassified but at the time that I sent it, I did not believe that it was classified.”

It was reported by Judicial Watch that the findings “centered upon whether Clinton intentionally attempted to evade the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) by using a non-government email system and whether the State Department adequately searched for records responsive to Judicial Watch’s FOIA request.”

The former Clinton aide’s deposition is a part of an order made by United States District Judge Royce C. Lamberth  for senior officials, including Susan Rice, Ben Rhodes, Sullivan, and FBI official E.W. “Bill” Priestap, to answer all questions posed by Judicial Watch, while under oath.

“A federal court wants answers on the Clinton email scandal and Mr. Sullivan is one of many witnesses Judicial Watch will question under oath,” stated President of Judicial Watch Tom Fitton. “It is shameful that the Justice and State Departments continue to try to protect Hillary Clinton and the Obama administration on the email scandal.”

The World Tribune reports, “Judicial Watch previously released interrogatory responses given under oath by Priestap, assistant director of the FBI Counterintelligence Division, in which he stated that the agency found Clinton email records in the Obama White House, specifically, the Executive Office of the President.”
