'We Need to Clean This Up': Bombshell Wikileaks Show Obama Hid Knowledge of Hillary's Secret Emails

Newly leaked emails show Hillary Clinton's top aides panicked after hearing Obama told CBS News he only learned about her private email server "through news reports."

"[W]e need to clean this up," aide Cheryl Mills wrote to Clinton's campaign manager John Podesta, "he has emails from her."

From The Daily Mail:
Senior Hillary Clinton aides fretted that President Barack Obama knew she conducted government business through a private email address, despite claiming that he learned about it in news reports.

An email chain released Tuesday by Wikileaks – one of thousands of messages hacked from Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta's account – memorializes campaign insiders' surprise when the president played dumb during a CBS News interview.

'Jen you probably have more on this,' Clinton national spokesman Josh Schwerin wrote to communications director Jennifer Palmieri on March 7, 2015, 'but it looks like POTUS just said he found out HRC was using her personal email when he saw it in the news.'
The interview had not yet aired when the email chain began.

Traveling press secretary Nick Merrill forwarded the message to Cheryl Mills, who raised a red flag with Podesta three hours later.

'[W]e need to clean this up - he has emails from her - they do not say state.gov,' wrote Mills, who was Clinton's lawyer and served as her chief of staff at the State Department from 2009 to 2013.

In the interview, CBS News senior White House correspondent Bill Plante asked Obama when he learned about Clinton's private email system.

'The same time everybody else learned it, through news reports,' the president replied.

But Mills' email to Podesta indicates the president had already exchanged emails with his onetime secretary of state at her 'clintonemail.com' address.
The implication is clear: Obama lied to the public when he said he didn't know about her secret email server, just like Hillary lied to the Benghazi families when she told them an "internet video" was responsible for their family members' deaths.
