Analysis by “The
Daily Caller” shows that almost everything the Hillary Clinton Campaign was and
is putting out about her E-mails scandal has been
a lie
According to
a report in the conservative leaning internet magazine, “The Daily Caller” --- “A 4,000-word ‘fact
sheet’ ***/ on Hillary Clinton’s campaign website contains 35 lies, half-truths,
obfuscations, evasive statements and falsehoods about her private email setup …. Clinton and her campaign have long referred
to the 'fact sheet' ***/ in response to questions about her use of a
personal email account and private server. Her team of elite attorneys even hid
behind the document earlier this year when the State Department’s inspector
general sought to interview Clinton about her email practices. IG Steve Linick
said during a House hearing last week that Clinton’s team declined an interview
request and referred him to her ‘fact sheet.’…
But that document is riddled with false statements. Many of them have
been apparent for some time, such as her claims that the FBI was conducting a
security review and not an investigation or that she never sent or received
classified information on her email account….
Others were revealed last week by FBI director James Comey. He called
Clinton’s use of a private server ‘extremely careless’ and said that it put
sensitive U.S. secrets at risk….” (See “Here Are 35 Email Lies Hillary Is Still Telling On Her Campaign

Here are
the LIES, which are still on the HRC’s briefing website & twitter all lined up in a row for you by
the folks at “The Daily Caller”:
Lie #1 – “We’ve put all the information about Hillary Clinton’s State
Department emails here.”

review process will sort out as quickly as possible which of the 55,000 pages
of emails are appropriate to share with the public.”

office.”
Lie #8 – “While on travel, the State Department had rigorous protocols for
her and traveling staff to receive and transmit information of all types.”

for the purposes of handling classified communications, which was designed to
prevent such information from being transmitted anywhere other than within that
system.”

press.”

transparent as possible.”

account while she was Secretary of State to the Department of Justice…”
Lie
#14 – “Clinton has pledged to cooperate with the government’s security
inquiry.”
Lie #15 – “Even if Clinton’s emails had been on a government address and
government device, these questions would be raised prior to public release.”
Lie #16 – “It was her practice to email government employees on their ‘.gov’
email address. That way, work emails would be immediately captured and
preserved in government record-keeping systems.”
Lie #17 – “Why didn’t Clinton provide her emails to the State Department until
December 2014? The State Department asked for the help of the four previous
former Secretaries in meeting the State Department’s obligations under the
Federal Records Act.”
Lie #18 – “In providing these emails to the Department, Clinton included all
that she had that were even remotely work-related.”
Lie #19 – “…erring on the side of over-inclusion.”
Lie #20 – “After providing her work and potentially work-related emails, she
chose not to keep her personal, non-work-related emails, which by definition,
are not federal records and were not requested by the Department or anyone
else.”
Lie #21 – “As Clinton has said before, these were private, personal messages,
including emails about her daughter’s wedding plans, her mother’s funeral
services and condolence notes, as well as emails on family vacations, yoga
routines, and other items one would typically find in their own email account.”
Lie #22 – “As noted, the emails that Clinton chose not to keep were personal
emails — they were not federal records or even work-related.”
Lie
#23 – “In March 2015, when Rep. Gowdy issued a subpoena to Clinton, the
State Department had received all of Clinton’s work-related emails in response
to their 2014 request.”
Lie #24 – “Were any work items deleted in the course of producing the printed
copies? No.”
Lie #25 – “This entailed a multi-step process to review each email and provide
printed copies of Clinton’s emails to the State Department, erring on the side
of including anything that might be event potentially work-related.”
Lie #26 – “Did she withhold any work emails? She provided the State Department
with all work and potentially work-related emails that she had, including all
of her correspondence with Sid Blumenthal.”
Lie
#27 – “She has also taken the unprecedented step of asking that those
emails be made public.”
Lie #28 – “After her work-related emails were identified and preserved,
Clinton chose not to keep her private, personal emails that were not federal
records, including emails about her daughter’s wedding plans, her mother’s funeral
service, family vacations, etc.”
Lie #29 – “The server for her email was physically located on her property,
which was protected by U.S. Secret Service.”
Lie #30 – “The security and integrity of her family’s electronic
communications was taken seriously from the onset when it was first set up for
President Clinton’s team.”
Lie #31 – “Suffice it to say, robust protections were put in place and
additional upgrades and techniques employed over time.”
Lie #32 – “Was the server ever hacked? No, there is no evidence there was ever
a breach.”
Lie #33 – “Was there ever an unauthorized intrusion into her email or did
anyone else have access to it? No.”
Lie #34 – “Was the State Department able to respond to requests related to
FOIA or Congressional requests before they received copies of her work-related
emails? Yes.”
Lie #35 – “The State Department was able to search and produce Clinton’s
emails when needed long before, and unrelated to, receiving the printed copies
as they were already captured on state.gov accounts.”
THERE ARE REBUTTALS & REBUTTALS TO ALL THOSE LIES ---
For detailed rebuttals to all of the 35 “LIES” listed

presented by Mr. Ross.
