(TRUNEWS) The Obama Administration has admitted there is a delay on agencies reviewing Hillary Clinton’s emails, because the State Department is behind on releasing them.
The department filed a request in court Thursday, asking for a deadline extension, which will push back the date to Feb. 29, well after the Iowa caucus, and the primaries in New Hampshire and South Carolina.
The Washington Times has reported officials realized three weeks ago they had forgotten to send out thousands of emails marked for review.
They also blamed the recent snowstorm.
When asked to provide details for the delay, the administration refused, claiming the court should trust the department’s good intentions.
Twenty-two emails will never get released because they are “too damaging” to national security, which was just confirmed by the Obama Administration, according to AP.
Under the Freedom of Information Act there is an exemption for highly sensitive material to be withheld.
The delay comes as current and former members of Congress speak out about the investigation. Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) told the Washington Examiner an indictment could come soon against Clinton and her aide, Huma Abedin.
“I think the FBI director would like to indict both Huma and Hillary as we speak,” he said. “I think he’s in a position where he’s being forced to triple-time make a case of what would otherwise be, what they call, a slam dunk.”
Issa also said he doesn’t believe any actions will come until after the election.
Recently, TRUNEWS reported former Texas Congressman Tom Delay claimed an indictment was coming soon.
