The head of the congressional committee investigating Hillary Clinton’s handling of classified information on her private email server blasted the State Department on Wednesday for hindering its probe by not providing requested documents. There is a reason the State Department, years after, is still holding off on giving us documents,” Chaffetz told Fox News. A post shared by Jason Chaffetz (@jasoninthehouse) on Jan 20, 2017 at 12:31pm PSTAccording to Chaffetz, it could be as many as 300 people who mishandled classified information at the State Department. On Feb. 16 Chaffetz sent a letter, which committee Democrats called a “waste of time,” to the Justice Department requesting the prosecution of former State Department employee Brian Pagliano, who failed twice last September to comply with a committee subpoena. “For the State Department and DOJ lawyers to still say their position is what the Obama administration’s position was is not good,” Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch, told Fox News.
