Gowdy: There Are Gaps of Months and Months in Hillary’s Emails
Mar. 8, 2015
SCHIEFFER: “Well, let me make sure I understand why this is significant. And that is, by using this private account on a private server, she could not only keep those e-mails from the reach of the government, as I understand it, but she could delete the e-mails without anybody knowing it. So she has sent you some e-mails, but are there any gaps in the e-mails you have received so far from her?”
GOWDY: “Yes, sir. There are gaps of months and months and months. And if you think to that iconic picture of her on a C-17 flying to Libya, she has sunglasses on and she has her handheld device in her hand, we have no e-mails from that day. In fact, we have no e-mails from that trip. So, it’s strange credibility to believe that if you’re on your way to Libya to discuss Libyan policy that there’s not a single document that has been turned over to Congress. So, there are huge gaps. And with respect to the president, it’s not up to Secretary Clinton to decide what is a public record and what’s not. We need someone — and, frankly, I have lost confidence in the State Department to make that determination. They’re the ones who allowed this arrangement. There’s the ones who did nothing about this arrangement until they got a request from our committee. Frankly, I think your viewers are entitled to a neutral, detached arbiter to determine what’s a public record, first of all, because that never should have left the custody of the government, and, secondarily, what is our committee entitled to? We’re not entitled to everything. I don’t want everything. I just want everything related to Libya and Benghazi.”
