We Don't Want to Upset the Coronation

Citizens United has sued for emails between a handful of State Department officials and people at the Clinton Foundation and a consulting firm, Teneo Consulting, which has ties to the Clintons.

[...]

In a court filing on Wednesday, administration lawyers said the State Department miscalculated the amount of material it would need to process [14,000 pages of emails from aides to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton] as part of a lawsuit with the conservative organization Citizens United.

As a result, the government asked for a 27-month delay [until October 2018] to release the emails, which were originally due out on July 21.


“State deeply regrets these errors, and is working diligently to correct them as quickly as possible,” the lawyers said.

[...]

In a separate case involving the Republican National Committee, the State Department estimated that it could take at least 75 years to compile emails from a handful of Clinton’s aides.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
