If you were making a list of people least qualified to lecture anyone about not accepting election results, Hillary Clinton would be at the top of that list, circled in red, with little arrows pointing at it. And yet, as USA Journal reported, that is exactly what happened this week.
Less than 24 hours after President Trump delivered a nationally televised address revealing declassified intelligence about Chinese interference in the 2020 election, intelligence that was authenticated by the CIA director, the FBI director, the DNI, and the DHS secretary, Hillary Clinton hopped onto X to call it an "embarrassing rant about an election he lost six years ago." She also disabled replies on the post, which is the social media equivalent of throwing a brick through someone's window and then locking yourself in the car.
Let us review the resume of the woman now positioning herself as the adult in the room on election integrity.
Hillary Clinton spent a full decade relitigating her 2016 loss. She wrote a book about it. She gave approximately nine thousand interviews about it. She called Trump an "illegitimate president." She said the election was "stolen" from her. Her campaign funded the Steele dossier, which turned out to be the most consequential piece of political disinformation in modern American history, a document that was used to justify surveillance of the Trump campaign and launched a three year federal investigation that ultimately found nothing. It also torched whatever remaining credibility the mainstream media had, which was already running on fumes.
Now burn bags are surfacing from FBI headquarters. Actual physical bags of documents that were supposed to be destroyed but never were. Among the contents: a CIA referral to the FBI specifically about Clinton's campaign planning to "paint Trump as a puppet of Russia." It is right there, in writing, in bags that someone apparently forgot to set on fire. That is a heck of an oversight.
Meanwhile, Trump's address included claims of 220 million compromised voter files, swing states targeted by Chinese operations, American journalists allegedly paid to write negative stories about the sitting president, and FBI officials allegedly running "shadow government" operations to keep intelligence from the White House. All of it presented with the backing of the nation's top intelligence officials.
Clinton's response was to post two bullet points calling it a distraction and suggesting we need to "counteract any efforts to undermine our elections." The irony is so thick you could spread it on toast.
NBC, ABC, and CNN refused to air Trump's speech, with network executives reportedly deciding it was too "dangerous" for Americans to watch unfiltered. Clinton disabled her replies because she knew exactly what the comment section would look like if she left them open. Between the networks and Clinton, there seems to be a shared philosophy that the American public simply cannot be trusted to hear things and form their own opinions.
The CIA kept a note about Clinton's plan to frame Trump as a Russian asset. They put it in a burn bag. Someone never burned the bag. Some things really do have a way of working themselves out.
