President Barack Obama used a fake name and address while communicating with Hillary Clinton via email when she was secretary of state, according to FBI documents.
The Hill reports that Friday's document dump by the FBI contains notes from the bureau's interview with longtime Clinton aide Huma Abedin. She was asked about a particular email from an address that "is believed to be a pseudonym used by the President."
Abedin claimed she did not recognize the name in question and "expressed her amazement" that the president used the tactic to hide who he was.
"How is this not classified?" Abedin reportedly asked the agents during the interview.
Abedin also requested a copy of the email that was discussed. She noted that Clinton aides spoke with White House personnel when Clinton changed her email address because she wanted to be able to stay in touch with Obama via email.
Friday's document dump comes just three weeks after the FBI released another batch of documents from the Clinton email case. The Sept. 2 release included notes from Clinton's interview in July.
