"In 1997--three years after the Clinton health care plan was defeated..."

15. This is where I think this is all going and have for some time:

Judge orders GOP get more Clinton-related emails before conventions

The requests appear to focus on Clinton critics' claims that the activities of the Clinton Foundation and of some former aides to the Clintons improperly influenced official business at the State Department and USAID. After USAID didn't fork over any documents, the RNC filed a lawsuit in March.

Six of the roughly 38 lawsuits on Clintons emails are from the RNC:

They want fodder on the Clinton Foundation.

A couple of things folks may be overlooking: the GOP controlled Senate and House are sitting back collecting all this information by the IGs and these investigations/depositions/legal efforts. At some point, with all her lying about this, she may face a contempt charge. But the bigger one is the fishing for emails helps give them substance to string together allegations about the Clinton Foundation. And I guarantee you, that's going to catch a lot more attention that emails with average Americans.

The problem with it is - it's too late for Hillary to clear her name on those allegations when they come. They're going pump the "crooked" narrative and going to show folks "how much money the Clintons got from Saudi Arabia or foreigners on military contracts", etc flirting with the notion of the Clintons getting rich from kickbacks.

With the emails and snippets of evidence they're collecting, they'll be painting an ugly picture with some evidence to present a convincing spin. The House might subpoena her for testimony on the Clinton Foundation during the general elections for example.

The emails are hurting her. The above will really damage her. These are not nice people - they're going to do it to her whether they're accurate or not.

Between now and June 16th. hopefully someone will figure out how to defend against that because after the 16th, we're probably not going to be able to talk about it.

That's what really scares me.
