As Twitchy reported Monday, the State Department responded to a Freedom of Information Act request for Hillary Clinton’s emails on the Trans-Pacific Partnership deal by saying it would produce the records by the end of November — well after the 2016 general election.
Now that David Sirota, who filed the FOIA request as a reporter for the International Business Times, has made his letter from the State Department public, some keen eyes have found that the date by which the State Department expects to comply — Nov. 31 — will be impossible to meet.

This just shows how frivolous the State Dept is about exposing @HillaryClinton 's awful judgement +/- hide her FOIA

Hmmm. Info has already been located. Review will take until 12th of Never. Accidentally honest response from @StateDept .

Don’t wait up for the rest of those emails either.

Anyone care to explain why it would take 75 years? What does it take to review an e-mail? How many people are working on it? Such lies!

Well, according to the president himself, “there’s classified, and then there’s classified,” and it takes a while to tell which is which.

The press was happy to crowdsource the job of combing through Sarah Palin’s official email for juicy bits. Why not do it again?
it would take even longer if they continue to sit on their ass. America deserves the respect of the truth. No more spin bullshit
