The truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

I've been out here, listening, reading and this is the way I remember it.

In regard to Hillary Clinton's e-mails:

She was never subpoenaed. She was ASKED by the US State Department to send in her emails. She complied and sent something like 40 thousand emails. 

This is a CNN report about her first emails released.

...The roughly 300 emails, (click here) about 850 pages, are part of the 30,000 that she turned over to State from her private email server, which she used almost exclusively to conduct both private and public business during her time at State. They reveal a range of correspondence from Clinton, everything from policy briefs to scheduling requests to friendly exchanges with staff....

So the actual count is 30 thousand. And let state this; it doesn't include all the wire communications that the State Department received. A lot of the business the US States Department carries out is by wire. This email stuff is like secondary to the State's Departments records. 

But, the timeline is that she submitted the emails that related to the State Department and erased all the other personal emails. It was the State Department that was taking their time in clearing the e-mails. They had to decide what needed to be redacted and it was taking time. During that time the former Secretary Clinton required via television for the State Department to send on the e-mails to the public. I am sure she wrote to the State Department or her campaign did about the same topic.

But, it was taking awhile for the State Department to process the emails and the Republican Benghazi committee sent the subpoena.

It was a private server that President Clinton had along with his offices in NYC. I am sure there was access for the family in their NY residence when they were together to be a family. Hillary Clinton is allowed to have a life away from the public. She is government, not Hollywood.
