In March, Hillary Clinton referred to herself as the “most transparent public official in modern times.” We’re starting to think that might have been a wild exaggeration. Here’s just the latest example why:

From the New York Post:
Hillary Clinton’s closest aide revealed in a deposition last week that her boss destroyed at least some of her schedules as secretary of state — a revelation that could complicate matters for the presumptive Democratic nominee, who, along with the State Department she ran, is facing numerous lawsuits seeking those public records.
[…]
“If there was a schedule that was created that was her Secretary of State daily schedule, and a copy of that was then put in the burn bag, that . . . that certainly happened on . . . on more than one occasion,” Abedin told lawyers representing Judicial Watch, the conservative organization behind the emails lawsuit.
Because “transparency!”
@nypost Have the FBI gotten evidence on Hillary's "Burn Bag" or is this being ignored?

Tip of the iceberg, but Hillary's untouchable. She wins, we all lose.

If parts of then-Secretary Clinton’s calendars indicate availability to donors and loyalists, what might have been on the documents that were destroyed?
