Hillary Clinton's exclusive use of a self-hosted email address has been at the center of controversy over the last few days, and now the former Secretary of State tweets that she wants those emails released to the public. Her tweets came after a congressional committee investigating the 2012 terrorist attack on a US compound in Benghazi, Libya, issued a subpoena "for all communications of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton related to Libya and to the State Department." An New York Times article closely accompanying the tweet fills in some of the holes of the story about how her account worked, referring to it as a "mark of status within the family's inner circle." The clintonemail.com domain name was registered by an aide back in the 90s, and eventually connected to a server registered by another former aide, Eric Hothem.

I want the public to see my email. I asked State to release them. They said they will review them for release as soon as possible.
