Good grief, the old saying of a woman scorned...
Clinton suggests Putin may have known about riot in Capitol, Pelosi wants 9/11 commission-type probe
You know, I thought it was a mistake for Trump to not go after Hillary after he got into office and appoint a special prosecutor. But at the time, I thought it would have been wrong after we just got through with a pretty contentious election and he should let the matter go.
He was wrong not to do it.
Clinton suggests Putin may have known about riot in Capitol, Pelosi wants 9/11 commission-type probe
Hillary Clinton, the former secretary of state, spoke with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on her podcast about the riot at the U.S. Capitol earlier this month and hinted that Russian President Vladimir Putin may have been receiving updates about the chaos from President Trump.
Clinton, who hosts the podcast, "You and Me Both," told Pelosi that she would be interested in obtaining President Trump's phone records to see if he was on the phone with Putin while the Capitol was being breached.
"I would love to see his phone records to see if he was talking to Putin the day the insurgents invaded our Capitol," she said. She asked Pelosi if she believed the country would benefit from a 9/11-commission-type probe to investigate what exactly led up to the deadly riot.
Pelosi said she is in favor of such a commission and she recalled telling the president that, "With you, Mr. President, all roads lead to Putin."
"I don’t know what Putin has on him politically, financially or personally, but what happened last week was a gift to Putin because Putin wants to undermine democracy in our country and throughout the world," Pelosi said. She said those that took part in the riot were "Putin’s puppets."
"So yes, we should have a 9/11 commission and there is strong support in the Congress to do that," she said.
