One of the more humorous aspects of the Hillary Clinton email kerfuffle has been the former secretary of state’s penchant for asking various staffers to print out her emails (the federal government’s Paperwork Reduction Act notwithstanding) with the short instruction “Pls print.” A search for the phrase in Clinton’s emails on the state department’s Freedom of Information Act archive returns dozens of hits.
As it turns out, Clinton’s daughter Chelsea was not even exempt. In December 2009, Sidney Blumenthal emailed Hillary Clinton one of his many tips, this one and an insider’s account of China scuttling the Copenhagen climate talks.
