This morning, the Republican National Committee released a scathing new video in light of the latest revelations about Hillary Clinton’s use of private e-mail as Secretary of State. Using footage of Clinton, the video hammers the Democratic nominee for her shifting and dubious stories relating to her e-mails, going as far back as March 2015.
This RNC video, “Caught Lying Again,” is the latest attack on Clinton as the email scandal refuses to die. Just yesterday, the ongoing FBI investigation into Clinton’s practices turned up an additional 15,000 e-mails that she failed to turn over to the federal government in the course of the investigation.
The video shows several clips highlighting the disparities between Clinton’s false claims about having “turned over everything [she] was obligated to turn over” and the most recent evidence that she did not actually do so.
In addition, the video displays footage of Clinton comparing her e-mail practices to those of two previous Secretaries of State — Condoleezza Rice and Colin Powell — repeatedly claiming that her predecessors “did the same thing” and “engaged in a similar practice.” In reality, Clinton had been using a private server for a year before she received a memo from Powell providing her with information about his own e-mail and server practices.
Since Clinton made these claims, both Powell and Rice have publicly stated that they do not recall any conversation between Clinton and Powell in which he advised her to use a private server. This is in direct contrast to Clinton’s recent assertions that Powell specifically advised her to use a personal e-mail account at a dinner hosted by Madeleine Albright additional to her State Department e-mail address.
RNC chairman Reince Priebus released a statement this morning, commenting on the newest developments in the scandal:
The American people deserve better than Hillary Clinton’s ongoing deception, and with Election Day less than three months away, the State Department should expedite the review of these emails and release them in full so that voters can hold her accountable and make a fully informed choice in November.
The video concludes with the stark question, “Will she ever tell the truth?” If Clinton’s record throughout the duration of this scandal is any indication, the answer seems clear. Why would she start now?
