Twice-failed candidate for president Hillary Clinton craves the spotlight much like Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) craves the undivided personal attention of Chinese honey traps, and unfortunately for the sanity of those who are all too familiar with her checkered past, the mainstream media usually gives it to her.
Such has been the case over the last month or so as Hillary and daughter Chelsea Clinton have been on a media tour of sorts to promote their upcoming Apple TV+ docuseries, “Gutsy.” Most recently, Hillary Clinton sat down for an “interview” with CBS Evening News anchor Norah O’Donnell, where predictably there was much gushing and much revising of history as it related to Clinton’s sordid political track record.
As is often the case with Clinton, however, she didn’t confine her revisionism to the TV news airwaves. As we previously reported, she also took to the Twitter machine Tuesday to post a lie-filled rant in an attempt to debunk comparisons of her email scandal to the FBI’s raid of former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home.
“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,” Clinton falsely claimed.
“Comey admitted he was wrong after he claimed I had classified emails. Trump’s own State Department, under two different Secretaries, found I had no classified emails,” she also falsely claimed.
