BUT OF COURSE: Clinton repeats debunked claim about FBI email investigation.
“As the FBI said, everything that I’ve said publicly has been consistent and truthful with what I’ve told them,” Clinton said in an interview with KUSA’s Brandon Rittiman on Wednesday.
Clinton made a similar claim — which was widely debunked — in an interview last weekend on “Fox News Sunday.”
“(FBI Director James Comey) said my answers were truthful, and what I’ve said is consistent with what I have told the American people, that there were decisions discussed and made to classify retroactively certain of the emails,” Clinton said.
The Washington Post’s fact checkers gave the statement “four Pinocchios,” their worst possible rating.
But can it be made to stick?
