Is This the Smoking Gun in Hillary's Email Scandal?

Tyler McNally | May 19, 2015

Hillary used another secret email address to discuss arming Libyan rebels with advisor Sydney Blumenthal according to the New York Post. The account was on the same private server that was discovered earlier in the year.

"Fyi. The idea of using private security experts to arm the opposition should be considered," says Clinton. The Obama Administration has continually denied the claim that the United States covertly aided the opposition to former dictator Moammar Gadhafi.

The New York Times reported that the new Hillary email is HRod17@clintonemail.com, to go along with the previous hdr22@clintonemail.com.

Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC), chairman of the House Oversight Committee as well as the Benghazi committee, was informed that the email address existed by Clinton's lawyer. However, the dates on the emails do not agree with the timeframe set forth by Clinton's lawyer.

At the time of the emails, Blumenthal was not on any State Department payroll, but he was on the payroll of the Clinton Foundation. The Clinton Foundation says that they, "build partnerships between businesses, NGOs, governments, and individuals everywhere to work faster, better, and leaner; to find solutions that last; and to transform lives and communities from what they are today to what they can be, tomorrow."

However, the Clinton Foundation has come under scrutiny for their money keeping and business practices. It is unknown if Blumenthal's role at the Clinton Foundation had any role in the emails between himself and former Secretary Clinton.
