@ZekeJMiller Hillary is almost daring the *ahem* mainstream media not to go along with her umpteenth variation on the Right Wing Conspiracy.

As Twitchy noted, Hillary Clinton kicked off her speech in Iowa this evening with some self-deprecating humor, praising her new Snapchat account for deleting messages all by itself. Clinton’s tone changed as she wrapped up her speech, though, repeating that she’s handed her private email server over to the Justice Department.

Clinton: "I just provided my server to the Justice Department. . but here’s what I won’t do. I won’t get down in the mud with them."

Hillary: "I won’t get down in the mud with them. I won’t play politics with national security."

Clinton defiant on server: "I won’t pretend that this is anything other than what it is, the same old politics that we’ve seen before."

Conservatives note that as Clinton again tries to play the victim card, she’s trusting that audience won’t bother to ask who’s playing politics. Who does she mean by “them”?
@ZekeJMiller @MaryCatron "them" refers to who, the justice department?

One big problem. This isn't her vs Republicans. It's her vs the Intelligence community https://t.co/rMwsyhG85V

Wait, is the FBI run by Republicans now? When did that happen?

@chucktodd Someone may want to tell the FBI it's just politics.

Clinton can try to frame this as political all she wants, but the truth is that she committed several crimes. https://t.co/e2Y36Gx6rf

I'm sure Americans will relate with her joking about her crimes and assumption she is above the law. https://t.co/azRto1DfWR

Maybe Hillary can take her standup routine with her to prison? I doubt the prisoners pay as much as the Saudis, but you never know.
