We are an opinion blog, not a traditional news outlet, and this post should be treated as such. Enjoy.)Hillary Clinton should have kept her mouth shut about President Donald Trump. However, she just couldn’t help herself. The failed candidate weighed in on special counsel Robert Mueller’s report in a Wednesday op-ed and compared “the president’s possible obstruction of justice” to the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Well, that’s when Trump made her squirm. You’ll love this.
The failed and disgraced 2016 Democratic nominee for president claimed in the op-ed that the Mueller report revealed a “serious crime against Americans” committed by President Trump. Her allegations come after Attorney General William Barr announced on April 18 there was no evidence Trump conspired with Russians or committed an obstruction of justice.
“Congress can’t forget that the issue today is not just the president’s possible obstruction of justice — it’s our national security,” Clinton wrote in The Washington Post. “After 9/11, Congress established an independent, bipartisan commission to recommend steps that would help guard against future attacks.”
“We need a similar commission today to help protect our elections,” Clinton continued. “This is necessary because the president of the United States has proved himself unwilling to defend our nation from a clear and present danger.”
Well, Trump’s personal attorney answered Clinton’s ridiculous claims for the president. During an appearance Wednesday on Fox & Friends, Rudy Giuliani warned that Clinton “better get a lawyer” because the Justice Department’s prior “cannot indict a Clinton” policy was no longer in effect, and she could soon be facing the long overdue legal scrutiny she has deftly managed to avoid in the past.
Asked to respond to Clinton’s commentary, Giuliani chuckled and said, “I have a hard time reacting to that. There is a woman who really obstructed justice. The president didn’t delete 33,000 emails. He didn’t have somebody smash up telephones. And he didn’t have someone wipe out a server and bleach-bit it, among the few things that she did.”
“The president was innocent of the underlying crime. Collusion delusion. No collusion. If you are innocent on the underlying crime, then everything they are talking about is an effort for him to defend himself,” he continued. “If I tell somebody that, ‘I’m innocent, please, testify on my behalf and say what happened,’ am I obstructing justice or am I defending myself and serving justice?”
Giuliani explained how the prosecutors who had gone after Trump flipped due process and the presumption of innocence on its head, essentially declaring Trump to be guilty and placing the onus on him and those around him to prove their innocence, when in reality it is supposed to be the prosecutors and accusers who must conclusively prove guilt.
The attorney further noted that there had already been two investigations into Trump — the FBI’s initial investigation, followed by Mueller’s special counsel probe — and said, “How this ever got started in the first place is the next investigation. And Ms. Clinton better get a lawyer.”
Co-host Steve Doocy pointed out how Clinton had blamed the Department of Justice policy against indicting a sitting president as the only reason Trump was able to avoid prosecution, but Giuliani flipped that right back on Clinton in a hilarious manner.
“There used to be a DOJ standing policy you cannot indict a Clinton, no matter how much they obstruct justice, no matter how much evidence they destroy, and no matter how often they lie, and no matter that they committed perjury,” Giuliani said.
“You can’t indict a Clinton, it’s against the Democrat Justice Department rules,” he continued. “This is not a Democrat Justice Department, not a Republican Justice Department. It’s the kind of Justice Department I worked for. I prosecuted Republicans and Democrats, and I didn’t think either one of them had a monopoly on virtue or vice.”
Asked if Attorney General William Barr would follow up on past allegations against Clinton and others, Giuliani replied, “I have absolutely no doubt. I have no inside information, zero, other than the fact that this is a man who believes in justice.”
However, Joe diGenova, a former Southern District of New York prosecutor who has been following this collusion delusion closely had insider info. “There’s another report that everyone has forgotten about involving James Comey alone,” diGenova said. “That will be out in two weeks. That report is going to be a bombshell. It is going to open up the investigation on a very high note, and there are going to be criminal referrals in it.”
He went on to say it will all point to the Hillary Clinton campaign. And finally, we have an Attorney General who isn’t afraid of the Democrats or the deep state. Hillary should have kept her mouth shut. DiGenova added she and her cohorts better lawyer-up. Hillary’s “alleged crimes” aren’t going away, it’s all coming back to haunt her.
