Hillary Clintonis setting the record straight about her “classified emails” — again.
The former secretary of state, 74, took toTwitteron Tuesday, refuting resurfaced allegations about her correspondence while in office.
“I can’t believe we’re still talking about this, but my emails…” Clinton tweeted.
She continued, “As Trump’s problems continue to mount, the right is trying to make this about me again. There’s even a ‘Clinton Standard.’ The fact is that I had zero emails that were classified.”
In another tweet, she said, “I’m more tired of talking about this than anyone, but here we are” — then directed her followers, or those who questioned her record, to read a story from last week inThe National Memowhich featured the headline “How Many of ‘Her Emails’ Were Classified? Actually, Zero.”
A lengthy FBI investigation ultimately determined that Clinton’s email server did not contain any classified information.
The search for the Trump administration’s classified documents dates back more than a year. In May 2021, the National Archives (NARA) began reaching out to Trump’s team, inquiring about missing presidential documents and asking that they be returned.

After NARA informed the Department of Justice of the discovery, the FBI was granted access to the files, and despite Trump’s team denying it was withholding more documents, 11 sets of classified documents were found after agents executed a search warrant last month at Trump’s Palm Beach, Florida property.
