PBS anchor Judy Woodruff grilled Hillary Clinton over the infamous “tarmac meeting” her husband, former President Bill Clinton, had with then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch last summer days before FBI Director James Comey announced he wouldn’t recommend charges against her over her use of a private email server. But Clinton wasn’t having any of it. What was she asked?One of Clinton’s main targets for excusing why she lost the presidential election last November has been Comey. She says the investigation, his letters to Congress less than two weeks before the election, and the scathing rebuke he gave of her on national TV last July contributed to a poor public perception of her, and therefore, her loss. But is it really Comey’s fault? Woodruff wanted to know. “My question is: He was in the role he was in because Loretta Lynch had pulled back and essentially turned over the leading roll in overseeing the FBI’s investigation into your emails because of that meeting on the airport tarmac with your husband. … To what extent did Loretta Lynch and President Clinton make a costly mistake?” Woodruff asked. Clinton’s responseClinton, shaking her head, said:
Woodruff tries againAfter Clinton’s diatribe about Comey, Woodruff circled back and questioned Clinton about the meeting again. “But my point is he wouldn’t have been in that position had Loretta Lynch not pulled back after that meeting with President Clinton,” she explained. “I, I just, Judy, I don’t believe that,” Clinton shot back, explaining the Justice Department’s chain-of-command. Watch the exchange below. The relevant portion begins around
2:15:
What was ”a breech of professional ethics” was HRC, a woman who
was the wife of a governor, the wife of a POTUS for 8 years, a
senator for NYS and the SoS NOT TO MENTION A LAWYER…acting like a
bewildered little child when she claimed she just didn’t know what
was classified and what wasn’t under oath. HRC claiming she had no
clue she wasn’t supposed to have her own private SERVER or that she
wasn’t supposed to tell her staffers to cut off the heading stating
that an email was classified and then send it to her so she could
plausibly deny the accusations that she even once received
classified emails to her private email account. The Clintons and the
entire media along with establishment politicians from both sides of
the aisle were all set to have the country run by the anointed
candidate. They made sure none of the viable candidates were going
to make it difficult for her but they made the mistake of believing
DJT would self implode as HRC ascended the ladder to the throne of
democratic socialist ruler. BHO said he could not do certain things
because he was not anointed King of America. But he did them anyway,
circumventing the very laws and system that have kept this country
strong for as long as it has existed in its short life.
