Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), who sits on the House Benghazi committee, pushed back on CNN.

"They issued a subpoena for records we already have," Schiff said. "We've read them. There's nothing in them."

"What is the law at the time? The law at the time was that she could use her personal email as long as she preserved it," Schiff said, arguing "she clearly did preserve her emails."

"In my view, this was not provided in response to the The New York Times article or anything else. This was provided last year when a request went out to the state department and all former secretaries," Schiff said.

"She followed the law in place at the time, and I think that's, I think, the relevant point."

He wasted tens of millions of dollars in time and material pursuing frivolous "misdeeds" when he knew there was scant evidence of them, but PR gain for his party. Stealing from the US taxpayers to give to the Republican Party is OK, but allocating tax money for starving and/or homeless Americans is not? Lock the SOB up.

Prior To Fire, Issa "Boosted" Fire Insurance And Removed A Computer From The Premises. According to the Los Angeles Times: "Weeks before the fire, Issa and [business partner Miles] Hunsinger boosted their fire insurance from $ 100,000 to $ 462,000 on property stored for other companies...At the same time, a separate company that contracted with Quantum to outfit bug zappers increased its insurance to $ 400,000, and, according to an insurance report, one investigator was 'concerned about the coincidence.' Fire investigators also noted that a computer was taken off the site eight days before the fire, 'allegedly to be reprogrammed' by Issa's lawyer, and that business blueprints were put away in a safe -- which was 'not previously done before.'"
