If you thought the government would give you a chance to see former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s calendar book before the election, you are wrong.
The FBI plans to withhold the information until December 30th, a few weeks before the Presidential Inauguration.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Seven months after a federal judge ordered the State Department to begin releasing monthly batches of the detailed daily schedules showing meetings by Hillary Clinton during her time as secretary of state, the government told The Associated Press it won’t finish the job before Election Day.
The department has so far released about half of the schedules. Its lawyers said in a phone conference with the AP’s lawyers that the department now expects to release the last of the detailed schedules around Dec. 30, weeks before the next president is inaugurated.
When the first batch of scheduling was released, it showed a State Department for sale, with more than half of all calls and meetings being with donors to the Clinton foundation.
While many see this behavior as fair, the big donations make others leery of Hillery Clinton’s allegiance. Is she a steward to the US citizens, or is she out for piles of dead presidents?
Most agree that transparency is key. When presented will all the facts, as brutal as they may be, anyone can make the right decision. However, our elected officials and federal organizations do not want us to have all the facts. Instead the calendar of our former Secretary of State will remain shrouded in slow-moving procedures until after we pick her to lead our country for the next four years.

Raul, this appears to be a DOS decision. It doesn’t make sense that the FBI would be involved in this, and I haven’t found any reporting mentioning FBI involvement.
Anyway, this is all political theater. The calendar will be a boring list of names and times. Clinton opponents will find proof of conspiracies and criminal acts in the list of names and times. Clinton proponents will see normal Cabinet-level business in the list of names and times. The list of names and times itself will remain nothing more than a list of names an times.
Also, the December 30 date is for releasing the last of the calendar. DOS has not said that it is withholding everything until then.
Given that they are under court order to release batches of the detailed-schedule pages every 30 days, DOS would not dare tell the judge that nothing is coming out for the next 4 months.
The AP is the organization that sued for release of the detailed schedules, and it’s own story on the delay has no mention of the FBI ( US: Clinton calendars won’t be released until after election ).
I do see that the AP story has a misleading headline, US: Clinton calendars won’t be released until after election, that isn’t supported by the text. You can blame them for making your own headline inaccurate in that regard, but the erroneous FBI mention isn’t AP’s fault.
Shenanigans for sure, but at this point I can’t imagine anything on these schedules swaying the majority that have already picked sides. She could have met with and shipped armaments to Jihadi John, and it wouldn’t cost her a single current supporter.
Not so sure. This one is sticking. One can see it in the faces of the talking liars and the paid pundits. They have the look of cancer defending this new revelation of scumbagness. Something got switched on out there. Whether the straw that broke the camels back or just so obvious that peeps are truly sickened. Hillary is seriously damaged from this current fuckery. Could be wrong.
I’d love to see her go down, but just can’t imagine her loyalists being swayed by any sort of evidence. Maybe it’ll be bad enough that she has to drop out…? I’m enjoying the entertainment.
Indeed man. Still a slight long shot. The AP could be the tell. Not “alt-right” at all. Amazing they give a shit but they do. Figure she has 35% at best of the population but they all have to vote. Funny what finally wakes peeps up sometimes. This has that feel. No jinx.
Honestly, nothing is going to sway Hillary supporters. She would have to be in jail for any of this to change that outcome. It’s nearly impossible this day and age to get someone to flip party lines. If the GOP were running a strong candidate, she would be toast in my opinion.
