There are more Clinton emails coming


The State Department on Monday is expected to discuss the release of another batch of emails from Hillary Clinton's private server, which was the subject of a year-long FBI investigation following controversy over her email practices while serving as secretary of state. Thousands of emails reportedly remain undisclosed, The Washington Post reports — even after the more than 30,000 messages Clinton's team gave to the State Department in December 2014. Conservative legal group Judicial Watch has sued for their release, and a hearing Monday will decide a timetable:
The Post reports that government lawyers are looking at a "rolling release schedule" to be set in October. In July, FBI Director James Comey recommended Clinton not be indicted for her server use, though he did characterize her email practices as "extremely careless."
