An email released by WikiLeaks on Tuesday proves Barack Obama lied about whether he knew Hillary Clinton used a private email server to conduct official State business. The final email on the thread reading “Subject: Fwd: POTUS on HRC emails,” which was sent on March 7, 2015, longtime Clinton aide and lawyer Cheryl Mills wrote “we need to clean this up – he [Obama] has emails from her – they do not say state.gov.” [period added]

Jen you probably have more on this but it looks like POTUS just said he found out HRC was using her personal email when he saw it in the news. — Josh Schwerin

In an interview with CBS News senior White House correspondent Bill Plante on March 7, 2015, President Obama was asked questions about the private email system that Mrs. Clinton used for official government business while she was secretary of state.

“The same time everyone else learned it through news reports,” Mr. Obama said in response to Mr. Plante asking when he “first learned that Hillary Clinton used an email system outside the U.S. government for official business while she was secretary of state.”

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest fielded a series of questions on April 11, 2016 from Fox News reporter Kevin Corke. He was asked about how aware the president was that his first secretary of state was using a personal email address and a private email server to handle classified information.
