The State Department announced yesterday that they would appoint an “Email Czar” to handle all of the FOIA and investigative requests, including the ones tied to Hillary Clinton’s basement email server. The Czar, who they consider to be their “transparency guru,” will be in charge of maintaining records for the State Department and “improving” the processes by which they State Department collects and disseminates information.

According to The Hill, Secretary of State John Kerry has had it up to here with all of the requests targeting Hillary Clinton’s email, and wanted to get the problem off his hands as quickly as possible. So, they tried to find someone fast, settling on Ambassador Janice Jacobs, who is a former diplomat and visa-process consultant, and — in a move I’m sure none of you saw coming — a very recent, maxed-out donor to the Hillary Clinton for President campaign.
